Biscotti

Biscotti is a shortbread made from almond flour and cooked twice to make it extra firm. It is usually served with tea or coffee and you dip the cookie in the hot drink. I love just eating it by itself when it is freshly baked sometimes. 
 

Ginger Snaps


 I am not a fan of crunchy hard cookies. These ginger snaps are more of just a ginger cookie because they are so soft, moist and chewy. Just looking at them makes my mouth water.

Really Awesome Chocolate Chip Cookies

 I also made egg free chocolate chip cookies a couple of weeks ago. I was really surprised how well they turned out. They weren't as good as the ones above but they were still good. 

I also made Samoin Cookies (you know the girlscout cookies everyone loves with the coconut and caramel) They were amazing. I forgot to take a picture and we ate them so fast but they were really AMAZING!

Egg free chocolate chip cookies

We have some primary children in our ward that are allergic to eggs. The primary chorister needed some help making treats so I volunteered to make egg free chocolate chip cookies. They turned out surprisingly well. While I was making them I was a little concerned but they turned out ok.

Iron Festival

 Well, I didn't do as well at the Iron Festival as I did at stampede days. I think there were a few things that affected the results. 
1. It was really hot
2. The vendors and the car show were almost two completely differant things. 
With that said though. I am out of business cards and I had 100 when I started, so if anything I will get some more traffic on my website and some orders.
 Huckleberry Chocolate mini cake. I love the plates. I found them at Ross. They have little diamonds imbedded into the plate. There perfect for a wedding or something on my new stand!

 Peach Blackberry. Yummy. This was my second attempt and they turned out so good. They reminded me of my grandma. They sounded and ended up looking like something my grandma would have at one of her tea parties. Grandma I still haven't had a tea party with you. Next time I'm down we are having a tea party and I'm making these for all your guests.
 This is my new stand that I got from pampered chef with my party discount. I went to Ross and got a whole bunch of differant plates to go on it. They are all so neat. These are cake pops. I made White Almond on the bottom. Cookies and Cream in the middle. And Chocolate on top. The chocolate I dipped in White and Chocolate.
 S'mores cupcake. If I were to do this again I think I would put some chocolate ganache on the cupcake and then the marshmallow frosting and then toast it more. But, they were still really good.
 Huckleberry chocolate. The most popular cupcake of the day.
 Strawberry Lemonade.

Yes, there is a DP in the background. I must explain myself. I haven't had caffeine since my junior year of high school when I decided to stop drinking it. There's nothing bad about it, it was just a personal choice I made for myself. Anyway, I stayed up all night and didn't finish baking and decorating what I had to at home until 7am which by then I had to take a shower and get to the place to set up. So, I was so tired and Tyson bought me something to keep me awake. I felt so guilty drinking it but it did help me. Then at 4 when I was done I went home and crashed for a couple of hours. Then I woke up, went and ate with a friend and crashed again. Then I crashed all Sunday after church. I think I am finally caught up.

The Debut

So, I decided to try selling my stuff at the local Rigby Stampede days. I was really nervous about how it would go because it's a big investment and I didn't know how it would go. I made some business cards, a banner, and lots of treats. I got a lot of compliments and I sold everything I had except for some suckers which I had a ton of so that's ok. For those of you who couldn't make it here is a preview of everything.

 My sign. It makes me so happy to see it not on the internet :)
 My table of goodies. Soon I am going to have to get another table. This one was a little crammed.

 Decorative sugar cookies. They tasted amazing to.
 So those of you from Medford. Do you remember the cookie shop in the mall, and they had those chocolate marshmallow cookie? Well, they were my favorite and I mastered the cookie with a couple of different recipes combined. They were a huge hit.
 Me preparing everything at home.
 I hand painted a whole bunch of chocolate suckers. The kids loved them a ton and adults  thought they were so creative.




Amazing muffins. Blueberry and Cream, Strawberry and Cream, and Almond Poppy seed. These muffins are so moist and yummy.

 Mini Cakes. These are about 3 inch round cakes. Perfect for a first birthday and just two people. This one was chocolate peanut butter cup cake.
 Strawberry lemonade cake. With white chocolate poured over the top.
 Raspberry Truffle cake.
 Cake Bites.
 Peanut Butter Cup Cupcakes. Yummy!

 Raspberry Truffle cupcake with a little chocolate hand made bowl on top for decoration.
And the most popular. Strawberry Lemonade cupcake. This is a lemon cupcake with strawberries poured over the top then a strawberry lemonade butter cream. Add a gum paste daisy with a lemon slice for decoration and it make it complete.
Thanks to all those that came to my booth. I had a lot of comments on how amazing everything looked. Thank you so much for the compliments. I hope that everything tasted as good as it looked for you and it met your expectations.
