A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
Wanted to share a super simple sweet little Valentine’s Day Cake with you… This cake uses one of my favorite recipes – Pink Velvet! The recipe is for cupcakes, so for a cake you’ll need to add some time to your baking and keep a close eye on it. I tend to bake my cakes more by eye than by timer as my oven has been a bit temperamental lately. Probably about 40 minutes for two 8″ cake {Read More}

So after recently realizing that I can write on the glass in picture frames using my whiteboard markers, I’ve started branching out, and writing on other things. This one might be my favorite yet… Yeah, maybe I’m late to the party, but I’m just figuring this out. You can totally write on pretty much any glass using whiteboard markers. How fun is this? You can use it to leave a love note right on the glass of your shake, smoothie, {Read More}
Another super easy sweet for you – Valentine’s PEEPS S’mores! Or, you can forgo the stick and just make yourself some sweet s’mores… To make these… 1. I dipped graham crackers into chocolate coating. 2. I dipped my straws/sticks into chocolate, and then put them into my PEEPS hearts. 3. I sat the PEEPS hearts onto the graham crackers while the chocolate coating was still wet. That’s all there is to it. If you are skipping the sticks, you just {Read More}
Sticking with my keeping it simple theme this week, here are some sweet & simple Valentine Marshmallow Pops for you today… These are made using the Jumbo Mallow Hearts from Jet Puffed, Chocolate Coating, Mini Heart Sprinkles and Party Straws. Like everything else I turn into a pop, I start by dipping the sticks in chocolate and then inserting them into the soon to be pop, in this case the marshmallows. Then into the freezer they go to chill for {Read More}
Another quick and simple idea for you today, with more of my favorite things. Pink. PEEPS. Hello Kitty. Super Cute Straws. Hello Kitty PEEPS Pops Here’s a quick video showing how I made these. Excuse the end where I show you the finished product and sort of completely and totally miss getting it on screen – hey, this isn’t Food Network, clearly! You could leave Hello Kitty off of these, or use a different sugar decoration in her place. I {Read More}
So the treat I have to share with you today combines a whole lot of stuff that I love… Rice Krispies Treats. Cute Paper Straws. Valentine’s Day. Sprinkles. Alternative Holiday Colors. And best of all – they are super simple to make. Ah, how cute are these little guys? Love! And best of all – no baking! I used premade Rice Krispies Treats to make these (you can totally make yours from scratch – whatever works for YOU!). I simply {Read More}
I’ve had a few readers request that I do another Fun Finds post, so while I was zipping through Target this morning, I did the best I could do capture all of the Valentine and Spring goodies I could as well as some other fun stuff I came across. Unfortunately the camera on my phone isn’t the best, though that’s probably at least partly because I’m juggling it with a cart and a toddler and trying not to slow down {Read More}
One of my favorite way to share treats for the holidays with classmates and friends is in treat bags with printable treat bag toppers. You can use them for homemade treats but they are also fabulous for dressing up store bought goodies (my daughter’s school district doesn’t allow homemade treats). Chocolate Dipped Pretzel Treat Bags PEEPS Treat Bags Hot Tamales Treat Bags Last year I put together an entire collection of free treat bag toppers to use with your Valentine’s {Read More}
A quick and easy idea for you today – White Chocolate Dipped Valentine Cookies… Remember the Sweetheart Pink Heart White Chocolate Chip Cookies I made last week? These are those same cookies (literally, same batch!) but instead of putting them into the heart shaped whoopie pie pan, I just made them as I normally make drop cookies. After baking the drop style cookies and letting them fully cool, I dipped them into a white chocolate coating and added sprinkles. As {Read More}
You know those red velvet cupcakes I shared yesterday, well here is another fun way to make them, or ANY kind of cupcake. Just bake that baby right inside a waffle bowl… How fun is that? I put the batter directly into the bowls, just like they were cupcake liners. It always amuses me that red velvet cake batter looks exactly like ketchup. I’m easily amused, if that wasn’t obvious. I topped mine with frosting and chocolate coating, but you {Read More}
