It’s our penultimate recipe for Baked Sunday Mornings! I can’t believe it! I have so much more to say about the whole thing, but I’ll save that for the last post. This week we kept our ovens off and made Brown Sugar Caramel Sauce. This recipe was a bit perplexing to me, as I always......

Happy Easter, bakers! This week our assignment was to whip up some delicious toffee, which was fun for me as I like any excuse to use my candy thermometer. I first made toffee years ago using this recipe from Smitten Kitchen, and I was amazed at how easy (and dangerous) it was to essentially make......

I was so, so excited to host Thanksgiving at my place this year! My middle brother and sister-in-law were away celebrating their 10 year wedding anniversary, so I was able to fit everyone else (7 grown-ups, 2 kids) in my condo. You know by now that I took this very seriously, and it was basically......

The favourites I’ve blogged about to date have been pretty basic recipes that I’ve made countless times (buttercream, pancakes, muffins). Today I’m getting a little more trendy with my favourite Salted Caramel Sauce. I wanted to dedicate a post to this because like the buttercream, it’s on the blog, but buried as a component of......

My lovely friend Aoife is getting married this May, and we celebrated her wedding shower a few weeks ago. I offered to bring treats, and they needed to be both gluten-free and dairy-free for the bride-to-be. After consulting my Oh She Glows cookbook, a few other websites, and remembering what I made for her sister’s......

After many failures and a few triumphs with frostings and fillings, I finally received an A+ in Marshmallows 101 this summer. Because I was wrapped up with summer fruit and other s’mores concoctions, they never actually made it on the blog, but I was pretty excited to have achieved this milestone. Homemade marshmallows have been......

So I finally joined Pinterest after rolling my eyes about it for the last year or so. I was adamant that I didn’t need another time suck in my life, but then I came to the realization that it would actually help me organize all of the recipes I have bookmarked at home, at work, jotted on......

  I’m not sure I’m ever going to have the occasion to make 120 cups of candy-covered popcorn again in my life, but I thought I would document the process here just in case! This was for my childhood friend Marlena’s baby shower. We got to chatting back in April at Nicole’s house, and she asked if......

Ah, homemade marshmallow. I love you so much, but you never work out for me. Last summer I had two pretty epic marshmallow failures on a couple of s’mores projects (cupcakes + pie), so I was a little nervous going into this week’s Baked Sunday Morning selection....

Merry Christmas! Hope everyone had a nice holiday. I’m currently marathoning Season 5 of Friday Night Lights, but I rolled off the couch to check in here with a quick update. I’ll be posting a recap of my Champagne & Cookies Christmas party shortly, but in the meantime, here’s an actual voicemail that I received......
