Truffles for Teachers
30 May 2010
Do you remember when I found Bakerella and just had to make cupcake truffles even though I didn't have an evacuation route planned for them? Well, I later found out that she developed an even easier method for these little bites of cupcake heaven. So, I was thrilled that Pea's preschool days were ending and I had a reason to bake, complete with the evac plan! I picked up the extra supplies and went to work on Thursday. They turned out so cute AND yummy! (The blue top was Pea's choice!)
I also bought some gift boxes. . .
and pretty, coordinating ribbon. I even made a little "label" of sorts. It says "Handmade Cupcake Truffles. Transfer to an airtight container. Keep cool or refrigerate. Enjoy!"
Sometimes I daydream about running a little sweet-shop/bakery (but I'm too smart to think that I'd actually like that for very long). Still, dreaming up a name for it is kinda fun. And, if I had a good one, I could start using it on gift labels. So, got any cute ideas? While you think about it, I think I'll go hit the left-overs!

Talk To Me
I blog for myself and my kids and I would do it even if no one else cared, but I do like to hear from you (and think it's a wee bit creepy of you to voyeurize us without my knowing it). So, please leave a comment from time to time, or email me anytime at xawilsons@hotmail.com. Much obliged, I'm sure.
Stalkers, Caught Red-Handed!
