The peo­ple in my life know my extreme weak­ness for Nordic Ware. Not only are they the cre­ators of the pan which yields my biggest cake weak­ness (the Bundt cake), they make many beau­ti­ful prod­ucts that make my flour-dusted knees weak, plus they are Amer­i­can made– Twin Cities made, in fact.

I have a tasty deal for the Treat of the Week this week…

Can you imag­ine any­thing more excit­ing than the aroma of cook­ies and brown­ies when you open up your mail­box? Well, sure, I guess there are things more excit­ing than that, but not mail related!

The awe­some Emma from Courser Farm […]

On August 19, 2011 By

Okay, so I’m doing a give­away but there is a catch. This will not be ran­dom, the win­ner will be picked solely at the dis­cre­tion of my taste buds.

In less than a month, I will turn the big 3–0. I’m totally okay with it, I’m excited to have my twen­ties behind me, actually. […]

Sorry for being MIA. I should be back to a more nor­mal post­ing schedule soon.

Until then– a cake for you to bake in your rice cooker! This cake is from the Not-Baked chap­ter in my new cook­book. It’s too darn hot to run your oven, but it’s not fair for Mother Nature to expect […]

Okay, Treat of the Week is back in full force, folks!

First off, we have a new video. Fresh off the presses, it is part 2 of the cake dec­o­rat­ing piece I’m doing. In this episode we tackle split­ting a cake, fill­ing a pas­try bag, assem­bling a cake and gussy­ing it up.

And […]

There is still one day to enter the draw­ing for a jar of Kelapo coconut oil!

All of your com­ments on last week’s post had me dream­ing about all things coconutty. One com­ment in par­tic­u­lar, by Ana, got me think­ing about mak­ing Almond Joy muffins.

If bak­ing is my art then muffins are […]

Not only do we have Treat of the Week this week, we have a super cool giveaway, too!

When you are a kid, there is noth­ing more excit­ing than get­ting the mail. My grand­par­ents would always give me junk mail, which was so excit­ing, until I real­ized it was […]
