Sugar Buzz Continues!

It has been a few days since I have posted, but not due to anything going wrong. To the contrary, I have been so busy with my confections that I will be working the rest of the week filling orders for goodies. I am hoping this continues after Easter Bunny Season and Mother's Day, because this makes my heart smile.

The Lemon Cookies are the latest hit and I have to admit, I am having a hard time staying out of them myself. I can make ganache from memory (simple, I know) and find myself trying to dream up new ways to make these little bites of heaven and calories more delicious and fresh. My new ones are going to hit the sample market (my amazing and honest friends) and hopefully make it to everyone else. I will post photos of it all as the week goes on, so stay tuned and keep checking in! I love having you with me on my journey in sugar!!

Cheese Wafers

Truffles, Toffee, and Cheese

Happy Saturday! It has been a beautifully exhausting week, full of chocolate, nuts, truffles and cheese. I have actually landed my first dessert catering job. It is small, but I am excited about it. The job is for a group of 20 and I am providing a small truffle tray, with an assortment of cherry, peanut butter, and pretzel truffles, my toffee, and my cheese wafers. I find myself dreaming up new ways to create and share, package and sell, market and present, the decadent treats.

This is one of the things I have always wanted to do, and no matter how short lived it might turn out to be, I am going to enjoy it completely while it is happening. I hope it continues to happen for a very long time, because I am having a blast! Like those of you who love to create in the kitchen as I do, every little pinch of seasoning, every stir of the spoon and the "whir" of the KitchenAid mixer, makes me smile as I watch simple ingredients transform into something that brings a smile to someone's face and joy to my heart. How cool is that anyway? Wish me luck! Thanks for following me on this journey! It is nice to have your company! And to those of you who have offered you graphic design talents (Sue W.), and those who are helping spread the word and samples of my treats, You Rock!
