Alternatively I had thought about making the title for this post (said as if you were about to sneeze) “Ca-shew! Ca-shew! Ca-shEEEEWWWWWWW!!!”. However, this would’ve been a reference to a certain family member who totally sneezes like this (although making the more traditional “Achoo” sound. They might be nuts, but they’re not that nuts 😉 […]

Who’s The Boss(Ton)?
September 24 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Icing, Other Desserts, Pudding/ Mousse
More cake! I know, I should’ve made this a layer cake themed month, I just didn’t realize I’d have so many opportunities to make full on cakes and take them places! September for the win! (too many exclamation marks in a row? Yes. Since you’re already judging me – !!!!!!!!!!!! – just had to get […]

Life Is Like A Box Of (Triple) Chocolate…Cake
September 17 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cupcakes, Icing
Death by chocolate, is there really any way to go that sounds sweeter? Maybe drowning in boiling melted chocolate would not be so great due to the whole burning your flesh thing (and also, you’d likely get chocolate up your nose and that just sounds both unpleasant and incredibly wasteful 😉 ). So my book […]

Float Like A Butterfly, Sting Like A Bee (Sting Cake)
September 10 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Candy, Pudding/ Mousse
Because this will definitely make you feel like you’re in heaven/aka on a fluffy cloud of deliciousness in the sky. I don’t know what I’m saying, but the real point here is, despite the fact that this cake technically started off as a bit of a disaster for me (a bit more on that later since […]

I’ve Got My Spine, I’ve Got My Orange Cookie
September 03 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cookies, Cupcakes
See? Didn’t I promise you no more peanut butter? (well…not no more ever, just not this week. Don’t be crazy 😉 ). I’m a super fan of citrus, so I might be a little biased here (I eat straight lemons (although maybe not? They don’t share their sexuality with me before I devour them 😉 ) […]

Is It Hot In Here Or Am I (Pea)Nuts?
August 27 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Candy
More peanuts/peanut butter???!!! Seriously Amber, get a room 😉 . OK, I promise I’ll do something not peanut butter related for next week, but stick with me here, because these are actually totally different from anything else peanut buttery that I’ve done before. I mean look at those innocent looking candy cups of joy! They […]

Rugged And Handsome Or Smooth Talker

…No, I’m not asking about your dating type (or personal description…I don’t know how you word your online dating profile! I will freely admit to knowing absolutely nothing about online dating and what goes on there. I luckily found the yin to my yang (that sounded weirdly dirty, but you know what I’m saying) before […]

Here Comes The Sun(Butter) – But Don’t Be Mallow-Dramatic
August 13 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Bars, Cookies
Being the conscientious person that I am, I opted to test these babies with both peanut butter and sunflower seed butter for a nut free option. I often consider doing this, but love peanut butter so much that unless I’m taking them to a peanut allergy location, I often don’t “risk” it, worrying that I […]

You’ve Galette Me Berry The Truth in Crumbles
August 06 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Icing, Other Desserts, Pie
A pun by any other name would….well probably be better than this one, so there’s that. This week, I’m going to bring you what I’m going to call the “real estate agent” version of dessert bait and switch (except in a good way I promise! 🙂 ). Because I know what you’re thinking…”Amber, do you […]
