If we were doing a candy buffet, I would so make a ton of these coated in red and orange.

They would be a perfect addition to anyone’s candy buffet for that matter, or even as a spread at a shower (wedding, baby, etc.). I’d love to make them for my shower, but it seems odd to make a dessert for your own shower (right?).

I think this version is adorable.

And, how great are these Relay for Life cupcake pops?

A friend of mine who works for the American Cancer Society would love those!

The recipe to make these is very easy, just takes a bit of time and patience (which I have).  SO, if you’re looking for some cupcake pops for your event, I’m your girl (shameless plug for my baking abilities, forgive me).  I’m not joking either (about me baking you these cake pops).

Are there any cute candy/cake/dessert ideas you want to incorporate into your wedding or shower?  Is there a must-have food you want to include or would want to?

So I thought I knew a lot about food, and I mean a lot. Most people know that I am secretly an aspiring chef, so for me to come across something I have never heard of in the food world is strange.

So, I’m watching “Throwdown with Bobby Flay” on the Food Network and the challenge was Moules Frites (Mussels and fries). I don’t know, but that just sounds like the strangest of combinations. Mussels and fries? Really? Burger and fries, yes. But, mussels and fries?

It is apparently a Belgian specialty (what about waffles?).

Anyway, so I am watching the episode and these people are just thoroughly enjoying “moules frites”. Enjoying them in the same way people enjoy chicken wings and beer.

Just food for thought.
