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 […]

Mamma Didn’t Raisin No Fool

Pi Day!!!! (well, to me, everyday should be pie day, but PIE-nally, it’s REAL pie day 😉 ). At the end of a long week (or even the start of one. Some weeks, Garfield really knew what he was talking about. Also, possibly your desire for murder may have even increased if any one said […]
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 […]
I’ll Be Bak(lava)
September 29 , 2019 by Amber Trudeau - in Bars, Brownies, Candy, Other Desserts
Baklava brownies!!!! For those times when you can’t decide if you want crispy and nutty or rich and fudgy. Now you could just eat both things, or stack them one on top of each other after purchasing from various bakery locations. Or, if you’re some kind of crazy billionaire and also want to be super over-the-top, […]
Can’t Eat My, Can’t Eat My Poke(r Face) Cupcakes
June 09 , 2019 by Amber Trudeau - in Bars, Brownies, Cake, Candy, Cookies, Cupcakes, Icing, Other Desserts, Pudding/ Mousse
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 […]
All Zest Up And Nowhere To Go? I Can Orange An Outing

Or alternatively, “See My Zest? See My Zest? See My Zest?” Because who doesn’t love this Simpsons song? (I just couldn’t let that slide…although now that song is totally stuck in my head so possibly not worth it? No, that’s a lie, I always find that song awesome 😉 ). Technically though, I think this […]
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 […]
Aliens or Ghosts? Cigar-ney Weaver Can-noli Guess
July 08 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Candy, Cookies, Icing, Other Desserts, Pudding/ Mousse
I think I have Ghostbusters on the brain because Kevin and I recently went to the Rec Room in downtown Toronto and did their fully immersive VR Ghostbuster experience thing (It’s a little pricey, but super cool and totally worth doing at least once. You get to shoot at the Marshmallow Man – at which […]
That’s A S’More-é
July 02 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Candy, Cookies
C’mon, don’t roll your eyes at me – you know you loved that one 😉 . Just because you’re jealous that you didn’t think of that pun first is no reason to go all hater-y on me and pretend you’re too good to laugh at my nonsense. Anywho, not sure if you’re sensing a theme […]
