Spring is coming …

Thursday, February 28th, 2008

… but it’s not here yet!

Nonetheless, we are starting to enjoy our creativity with marzipan …. here is what we came up with:

We will be making more marzipan fruits and other products, as it is a delicious treat for the eye and your taste buds. While we are perfecting our designs, we welcome your feedback - let us know, if you like marzipan - and we mean freshly made almond paste - not the dry sugary stuff in the supermarket :)

Stay tuned for our next email newsletter - we will be showcasing our new Spring flavors and some specials for Easter this year.

Have you been our Valentine?

Monday, February 18th, 2008

We survived another Valentine’s Day. Has it really been that crazy? Yes it has :)

But after a long day, we enjoyed our own Valentine’s Dinner with friends at the City Square Cafe in Manassas and it was time to relax and recap all the events the prior days.

One of our personal highlights was to have the opportunity to serve the needs of the Inn at Little Washington in Virginia:

We also made some custome confections for the City Square Cafe’s Valentine’s Day dessert, which is pictured here:

They are dark and white chocolate hearts, about an inch in diameter and they were used to decorate the strawberry-filled crepe - YUMM!

This week we will make more ganaches (since we are almost completely sold out) and prepare to make our new Spring flavors (recipes are finished and the new flavors will be announced soon) as well as prepare the first Easter specials. Our marzipan bunnies will make a comeback, but we’ll also have some new surprises for you ….

That’s it for today, don’t forget to eat some more chocolate!
