starting the new year SWEET!

literally...just look at these drool-some Alfajores con Dulce de leche!!

and the best part is, there's a recipe for you to follow. 


Have Fun!

play with your food

yes yes, do play. 

especially when it comes to sandwiches, Funky Lunch made anything possible with bread. 

check out these cute sandwiches, wouldn't you love to have one in your lunchbox? then again...could you bear to then eat them?

such a great idea for a kid's party!  
 

Shortbread Favors

in a cute fabric envelope does the trick.

 
Twig & Thistle did such a brilliant job for a baby shower. Here are the DIY steps as well. 
 

Am saving up all the leftover fabrics i have now on to make my very own fabric envelope. 

  

For the fasteners, i think nappy pins are so adorable for a baby shower. Buttons would work great for a kid's party and pom pom flowers would be lovely for a wedding favor!  

Rubber Stamps

on a plate, awesome!!

using a combination of food coloring, powdered/icing sugar and water. easy peasy.

this would be a really neat way to dress up your wares for any party. how about Halloween for a start? read more about it here.

macaroons

besides eating it (i love)
 ...you can wear it or use it, wooohooo!

 
sweet pastel pendents and place card holders from etsy shop owners. 

Pretty Parasols

Miniature version at that too.


Would be perfect to dress up any drink or fingerfood and the best part is - there's a step by step instruction available at papermash and it's actually really easy.


Send in pictures of your parasols, would love to see them!

Hot Chocolate on a stick!

Brilliant!

I am so going to use this during our next Dessert Table as well as my own gift favors. What a nifty idea from Giver's Log.


Mmmm...I can smell the warm melting chocolate already, I think I need to make me a cuppa right this instance!
