Valentine Candy Heart Mini Cakes

I wanted to make the Young Women at church a Valentine treat so I was wandering around Michaels as I sometimes do when I found this adorable pan in their Valentine display: They call it the “Wilton 20 Cavity Mini Heart Dessert Shell Pan”, rolls right off the tongue, doesn’t it?  I couldn’t resist it … Continue reading

Red Velvet Treat Pops

I was so excited when I found these Wilton treat pop containers on the after Christmas clearance rack at ShopKo for 50% off!  I’d been wanting some so I could experiment with making treat pops but didn’t want to pay full price.  Last night our group was in charge of the activity for Young Women … Continue reading

Chocolate Marble Cake
