Pastry Perfection from Sparkles Kitchen

Saying that I am addicted to macarons is really just stating the obvious at this point.

Not only do all of Karen’s pastries look absolutely amazing, but [...]

Their resolution-breaking sweets are absolutely mouth watering to look at, and I must confess that I’ve already had my break down [...]

Let Them Eat Macarons: Lovely Pastries from Paulette Macarons

Macarons have been at the top of my list since Marie Antoinette came out, and when I stumbled across San Francisco and Beverly Hills-based Paulette Macarons my heart went all a-flutter! How beautiful is the centerpiece above that they have available for special occasions? I would replace flowers with those stunners in a heartbeat (though [...]

Not-So-Cookie Cutter Treats from Better Bit of Butter

Okay guys, I can’t get over how stinkin’ cute these cookies from Better Bit of Butter. A friend sent them to me knowing how much I love making and looking at pretty baked things, and I’ve got to say she hit the nail on the head when passing this one on! These fondant covered bits [...]
