A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
So on one hand, it’s totally rainbow colored awesomeness to have a collection of sprinkles. On another hand, it can be a challenge to find a place to store all of those sweet little things. You need to have a way to store all those pretty sprinkles. A few years ago I realized that I used my sprinkles FAR more often than I ever used the fancy glasses and bowls that were taking up space in one of my cupboards, {Read More}
Now that we’ve talked about all the different kinds of sprinkles that are out there, let’s talk about where to buy them. And how to win them (I have a sweet giveaway for you!). As I have shared many times, my favorite place to buy my sprinkles is ABC Cake Decorating Supply in Phoenix. I have been shopping there for over 15 years – I actually use to live a block away and would walk there when I was in {Read More}
Let’s talk about one of my favorite things. Sprinkles. I don’t just like sprinkles, I love them. There is something simple and sweet and just plain happy about sprinkles. Plain sprinkles, fancy sprinkles, holiday sprinkles, you name it, I love sprinkles. Any cupcake, cookie or sweet treat can be transformed with these sweet little things. I know that many of you feel the same way, so I’ve decided to devote this week to sprinkles. Yes, a whole week about sprinkles. {Read More}
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year. I think I skipped a weekly wrap up, so it’s time to get back into the groove and recap what’s been going on around here. One of the biggest things going on around here is that I announced that I will now be sharing more of my “Away From The Oven” type of stuff here on Love From The Oven. The main focus will still be baking, sweets, treats {Read More}
One thing I am big on is substitutions in baking, especially when it comes to things like muffins and quick breads. My oldest is an extremely picky eater and it has always been a challenge to get a good breakfast in her. Making over muffin recipes has been our saving grace. Top Left: Chocolate Made Over Muffin Success. Top Right: Pumpkin Banana Cinnamon Pecan Muffins. Bottom Left: Oatmeal Scotchie Muffins. Bottom Right: Chocolate Chip Cookie Muffins, Three Versions. She gets {Read More}
I’ll be honest, I really don’t do the go out and shop on Black Friday thing. I have many reasons, I’m not a fan of crowds. I don’t feel like I make the best choices in the stressful lots of people limited quantity scenario (something I’m sure retailers like). I have a toddler. I have ADHD and distract really easily. And I have Amazon Prime. The end. I’m a big online shopper, I feel I can organize and plan {Read More}
With all the news of Hostess closing up shop, and everyone worrying about Twinkies, I have to admit, my concern was with those little bits of goodness known as Hostess Donettes. What the heck would I eat on road trip stops at 6am? Well thankfully we can make really yummy mini donuts at home, and my favorite way to do that is with the Babycakes Mini Donut Maker. I have shared on here before how much I enjoy my Babycakes {Read More}
Stopped in to Trader Joe’s for a few things yesterday morning and spotted some new items and a few favorites. Here’s what was in my store, which is ready for all of the Thanksgiving Shoppers… Peppermint is in store, but no Peppermint Joe Joe’s to be found just yet. These Chocolate Peppermint Cupcakes look like they could hold one over until the Joe Joe’s arrive. Or maybe some Chocolate Peppermint Brownies. Chocolate Blizzard Cookies. Trader Joe’s Candy Cane Green Tea {Read More}
I hit Trader Joe’s this morning and have to say I was a bit surprised that it wasn’t packed full of Christmas goodies. Trader Joe’s is however ready to celebrate Thanksgiving and I have to say it was a bit refreshing to not have Thanksgiving skipped over. Though I really would have liked some Peppermint Joe Joe’s. Just saying. So here’s what was in store at Trader Joe’s… Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Pie Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Macarons The one Peppermint find {Read More}
Let’s talk chocolate. Really amazing chocolate. Chocolate you can use to make things like this… You know the saying “go to your happy place”? Well, I’m happy to announce I’ve found my happy place. It has been hiding in a box of Julia Baker Confections Chocolates. Yeah, right in there. Wait for it… Julia Baker Confections French Caramel Truffle. Quite possibly one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. If I was asked to be on that show “The Best {Read More}
One of my go to products for holiday baking is Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk. It’s a must have for two of my holiday staples… fudge and magic cookie bars. I adore magic cookie bars (massive understatement). I’ve even played around with the classic version of the recipe to make a cookies and cream version… And a white chocolate version… I think magic cookie bars may be my all time favorite holiday dessert. YUM. October is National {Read More}
So I love Halloween. I love pink. I love bling. So a bling-ed up cake pop stick combined with pink, black and white for a Pink-O-Ween style chocolate covered Oreo pops? Oh, I am ALL about that! These are so darn adorable I can barely stand it. So much of what I love all wrapped into one. I made these chocolate covered Oreo Pops using the treats in my Spook-Tacular Halloween kit from Kraft (head over here to enter to {Read More}
