This post has been languishing here completely unposted for like a year and a half. Seeing it now though, I’m definitely having a hankering for Florentines. Rum soaked fruit? Nuts? Coconut, Caramelized goodness? Chocolate in all the ways? Yes please. Luckily I was smart enough to have written out the recipe before apparently running away […]

It’s About Valentine You Posted Again
January 31 , 2021 by Amber Trudeau - in Cookies, Icing, Uncategorized
Another recipe that was actually made a million years ago that I just never posted! Aren’t you excited??!! (why do I share this information with you? I should just be pretending that I made this mere moments ago and I’m so on the ball that I immediately had to post and share about it. This […]
I’m Gonna Lay(er Cake) Me Down on a Bed of Peanut Butter
February 17 , 2020 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Candy, Icing
Because roses are so cliché 😉 Out of control? What out of control? Having eighty thousand components to a dessert is what you always do too right? Of course you do. I actually felt a little guilty about this one. Kevin was super thankful for it and kept saying how guilty he felt that I’d gone […]
Can’t Eat My, Can’t Eat My Poke(r Face) Cupcakes

What is a poke cake you ask? No, what you are thinking is 100% untrue, it is not in fact a cake created by children who simply stick their fingers into it. What kind of backroom chop shop do you think I’m running over here? Not that that would stop me from eating it of […]
The Handmaid’s (Cock)Tail: The Sangria-la of Madeleines…
December 14 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cookies
…is surprisingly the Sangria infused madeleine cookie. Shocking I know. But you combine a little Spanish flair with a little French sophistication and you are now fully within your rights to call yourself classy and worldly. Am I right? (Don’t answer that, I’m right 😉 ). It’s funny because, although whenever I’ve had Sangria I’ve […]
The Handmaid’s (Cock)Tail: The (Pine)Apple of My Eye…
December 05 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cookies
…is actually in my thumbprint. Thumbprint cookies that is 😉 . But not just any boring ol’ thumbprint cookies of course. These little diamonds in the rough are virtual poster children for summer beach relaxing time (which I could really go for right now. I miss you summer. RIP 🙁 ). One bite of these […]
Season(ings) Greetings? How To Wine Friends And Influence Pepper
September 02 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Candy, Cookies, Icing, Other Desserts, Pudding/ Mousse
This would actually be a useful skill if by “Pepper” we were referencing Iron Man’s Pepper Potts. Having a bit of pull over a super hero seems like a useful tool to have in your back pocket 😉 . With these treats, I opted to go even more “super” crazy and make them gluten free […]
Sundaes For Sundays? How Berry Fitting
June 10 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Candy, Cupcakes, Icing, Pudding/ Mousse
Summer!!!!!!!!!!! That is possibly my favourite word. Conjuring up images of warmth and holidays…and ice cream! You know the big problem with ice cream though? It just gets a little too melty a little too fast. Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “sticky fingers” (although now maybe you could “legitimately” “accidentally” rob people […]
Deep Space Wine
December 03 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Brownies, Cake, Cupcakes, Icing
Let’s pretend we’re classy here for a week OK? OK. How do we do that you ask? I think if you douse anything in enough wine (provided you don’t tell anyone it came from a box), only a fool would think it hadn’t become a little more artsy and high brow. Now I know I’ve […]
