A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
This weekend I made some super yummy Mint (or Vanilla, your choice!) Chocolate Chip Buttercream Bites. Well obviously if I’m going to make Bites, I have to make Pops. Hello Frosting Pops! To me this is like a dream come true, because as much as I love cake, and cake pops, what I really truly love is the frosting! In this case, Mint Chocolate Chip Buttercream Pops. Yum, yum, YUM. On the outside they look like regular cake pops… But {Read More}
When it comes to all things in the baking world, one of my favorites has always been frosting. Sweet, delicious, creamy, wonderful, buttercream frosting. I’ve often joked that cupcakes are simply carriers for frosting. It’s all about the frosting. Which is why I decided it was about time that my pop making focused on my favorite part of this baking game. The buttercream. I wasn’t sure if it would work, but it did, and it did well. Let me introduce {Read More}
Sam’s Club recently asked me if I would like to share with you how we celebrate New Year’s Eve at our home. We tend to be homebodies, and one of our fun traditions we started a few years ago was to enjoy fondue on New Year’s Eve. We all love it, I mean what’s not to love about dipping delicious food into cheese and chocolate? And it’s a heck of a lot cheaper to do it at home than it {Read More}
I thought I would look back and share some of my very favorite recipes from 2012. Here are the ones I loved the most from January, February and March. Starting off is a lighter one, my More Fudge Less Pudge brownie recipe (like the box, but homemade!). I shared a video tutorial about how to make one of my all time favorite, easy to make, no bake, everyone loves to eat desserts, chocolate covered pretzels. Seriously, these are so {Read More}
A few days ago I made some glittery cupcakes for my friend Nancy, as a treat for her to take to her office holiday party. I shared some pics on Facebook and had so many questions that I wanted to go ahead and do a post about them for you, answer some questions, share a video and do a giveaway from Cupcake Stand – the shop that my cake pop stand comes from. First things first. What did I use {Read More}
Someone just had a baby! And that someone would be the amazingly talented & endlessly creative Meaghan Mountford, author of “Sugarlicious” and the blogger behind The Decorated Cookie and Edible Crafts at Craft Gossip. It’s mind boggling how much Meaghan does, and how she does it all so very well. I am so excited to be sharing a treat today in the virtual baby shower for Meaghan and the arrival of her second daughter, Violet Lake, who was born earlier {Read More}
Oh boy, I have one heck of a yummy recipe for you and there is no baking involved. Eggnog Truffle Pops! Well, they don’t have to be pops, but personally I think things are more fun as pops and truth be told I have a weird thing about not really liking touching dipping chocolate, so I prefer the pop method when it comes to dipping things in chocolate. These are SO yummy. I made two versions – the same truffles, {Read More}
I can’t help myself. I have to break out the candy canes. I know, it’s not even Thanksgiving yet, but the candy canes and chocolate and peppermint goodies on store shelves are calling to me. And thus I must do things like Candy Cane Oreo Truffle Cones. I made some Oreo Truffle cones for Halloween and I have to say, I really like using the mini cones. They aren’t as messy to dip as just truffles and they seem a {Read More}
This is what our group will be enjoying for dessert tonight at our Trunk or Treat… This will be a quick post as I wasn’t planning to post these until tomorrow, but many of you on Facebook have asked if I could share today, here you go! There were actually really easy to make. Oh and ridiculously delicious. I used Joy Mini Cones (found at Walmart) and my Kupcake Konz pan. I will say that having this pan probably makes {Read More}
This is one of those recipes that I actually didn’t intend to share on the website. I made these for my daughter’s teacher, for her daughter’s birthday. She mentioned that she liked salted caramel (the glorious goodness that it is), and I thought these would be a fun treat for her 15th Birthday. I made them late at night so I didn’t take my step by step photos or any do any of my normal “I’m blogging this” type of {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}
Yesterday I shared the yummy Candy Corn Cake Pop Cupcakes that I made… Well if you take away the cupcakes and add a stick, you have Candy Corn Cake Pops… Certainly a sweet but not too spooky treat. The adorable orange and white paper straws that I use are from Sweets & Treats Boutique. LOVE their straws, they are extremely strong (some others I’ve used in the past were to thin to really support cake pops). Head over to this {Read More}
