The variety of nut choices available keeps growing, with choices of sliced, slivered,  ground, chopped,  sweet, savory….in every nut  category.

 Although the cake featured here is only about 12”, I think I could have easily continued this design for a few feet, switching off nuts for each ring.

Hope you enjoy creating your own beautiful nutty designs!

 These cupcakes remind me of an adorable story I once heard.

A mother of a large family was seen, by one of her older children giving a younger sibling a full ice pop. Upon seeing that, the older child said “Mommy, in my days we only got a half of a twin pop” to which the mother replied-“yes- in your days you had a full mother with half a twin pop, he has a half a mother with a full twin pop!!”

Match your Bundt cake garnish to match the mini liquor of your choice.

Beautiful to look at and easy to make, celebrate by adding this fruity cake to your usual tu bshvat party.

Delight your family with this dessert that fits right into the theme of the day!

When it comes to babka I often think of Goldilocks (that's right, the one with the three bears). You see, somehow it's always hard to get the babka "just right". Sometimes, it's too doughy, while at other times too chocolatey, but the perfect balance seems so hard to find.  A few years ago I got this recipe from my good friend Shaini, I'm sure you'll agree with me that the only complaint you'll hear will be " someone's been eating my piece...."
