St. Patty's Day Goodness

I neglected to take pictures of everything, but here is a picture of a couple of the things I made for two different St. Patrick's Day events (none of which I was able to attend, because my kiddos were home sick!).

Soft sour cream sugar cookies with fresh whipped vanilla butter cream, and chocolate little cakes topped with cookies-n-cream butter cream and personalized vanilla glazed sugar cookies.

I also made coconut macaroon tartes filled with fresh lime curd and topped with freshly whipped cream, and puffed rice treats tinted green and topped with drizzles of white chocolate tinted green. Both were yummy. And cute. But I forgot to take a picture before I delivered them. The lime tartes, I must admit, are a new favorite. The combination of the sweet macaroon crust with the tart lime center was to.die.for.

Winter Wedding

Here are some pictures from a beautiful Winter wedding. We did a dessert bar and a cupcake tower wedding cake. Photos by the talented Heather Tycksen at Heather Tycksen Photography.

Cupcake tower wedding cake in reds and creams. Cream-filled chocolate cakes topped with chocolate ganache and personalized monogram cookies. Chocolate cakes topped with cream cheese frosting and tinted coconut. Vanilla cakes topped with home-made vanilla almond marshmallow cream and dipped in white chocolate. Vanilla cakes filled with fresh raspberry butter cream and topped with amaretto-whipped butter cream and fresh raspberries.

Cupcakes surrounded the tower on an elegantly dressed table.

The dessert bar included: Milk chocolate dipped peanut butter blondies, meyer lemon bars, mini berry-topped cheesecakes, white-mint-dipped brownies, sour cream sugar cookies, white and milk chocolate dipped strawberries, and coconut macaroons.

I had so much fun. And thank goodness my mama came to the rescue and aided me in dipping and transporting these sweet confections. Aren't moms the best? Well mine is anyway.
