Or, what happens in vegan marshmallow cookies stays in….err, gets shared with everyone? 😉 Shouldn’t that really be Las Vegas’ slogan in this day and age anyway? I think we’re closer to living in a Big Brother-esque society than we’ve ever been, so keeping anything secret seems virtually impossible. Which is why I totally can’t […]

I’m Nuts About Hazel so I Took Her on a Date
April 19 , 2015 by Amber Trudeau - in Candy
Even I’m saying “groan” about that title, I’m just off my game in the pun department this week. Feel free to offer your own (presumably much better) hazelnut and/or date related puns in the comments below 🙂 . These little doozies have no added sugar if you care about such things. Which of course is not […]
Cherry-ots of Fire
March 08 , 2015 by Amber Trudeau - in Cookies
Ah, maraschino cherries. They belong right up there with Worcestershire sauce as one of those words that always make me sound like I’ve just come from having my mouth frozen at the dentist when I try and say them. Is it wrong that there are some things I don’t like cooking/baking with purely for the […]
There’s No Crying in Bourbon Balls
March 01 , 2015 by Amber Trudeau - in Candy
Unless you’re crying tears of joy of course (because I must admit that I did get a bit misty eyed with pride when I finished making these and set them free to go forth and make their way in the world). Is anyone else as huge a fan of House of Cards as I am? […]
Put the Cherry in the Coconut and Eat Em’ Both Up
February 22 , 2015 by Amber Trudeau - in Beverages, Cookies
I warned you didn’t I? As promised, here is my homage to St.Raphael (aka the real St Valentine). Ok, I’ll be honest and call it what it really is, a need to use up the way too many dried cherries and shredded coconut that I have kicking around the house. But shhhh….it’ll be our little secret […]
Don’t It Make Your Brown(ie) Eyes Blue
February 14 , 2015 by Amber Trudeau - in Brownies, Icing
Valentine’s Day is here! Ok, that was actually horribly misleading of me, I’m not even really that big of a Valentine’s Day fan (this doesn’t mean I don’t love you Kevin – you’re amazing to me all year round, no special day required 🙂 …now that we’ve gotten that sappiness out of the way, on […]
Can You Do The Meringue? {Challenge Accepted}
January 11 , 2015 by Amber Trudeau - in Candy, Cookies
….Based on this photo, I apparently can’t 🙁 I thought about not posting this one at all because they didn’t turn out quite the way I had envisioned them, but in the interest of full disclosure, I’ve decided I should post the not-as-successful attempts as well. About a week ago, I received my first submitted-through-the-website challenge […]
Nobody’s Pudding Baby(cakes) in the Corner
January 05 , 2015 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cookies, Cupcakes, Icing
Although our freezer isn’t yet completely devoid of Christmas cookies, I couldn’t wait any longer to make something. I’ve had so many ideas rattling around in my brain that if I didn’t do something soon, some of them would probably have been lost to time completely and never been made 🙁 They never would’ve felt the […]
How the Grinch Stole Cookies (aka Christmas Cookies 2014)
November 20 , 2014 by Amber Trudeau - in Candy, Cookies
I bring you both the legend, and a photo of the cookies in their “real-life” ready-to-be-transported form. I figured I would add multiple visuals of this eye “candy” for your drooling pleasure 🙂 (yes! a terrible pun that works on both levels!) Here’s the sneak preview of the Christmas cookie offerings for 2014 – I can’t […]
