Funny Bunny Cookie Masks for Easter

By Dessert Darling · March 29th, 2013

Happy Good Friday! After scouring the web for darling Easter desserts, I’ve decided that these Bunny Cookie Masks by Munchkin Munchies are the most original and fun idea that I came across. If you get cute bunny ears and have the kiddos pose with these cookies, it would make a picture perfect moment!

While I’m normally a Thick-&-Chewy Cookie kinda girl, there’s something rather addicting about TATE’S thin crisp Chocolate Chip Cookies. Additionally, TATE’s has achieved this success with their Gluten Free fare- no easy feat!

Brain Pops and Sweet Treats for my Nurses by Yummy Scapes

By Dessert Darling · October 22nd, 2012

In case you missed the news, I had Brain Surgery last month (post here)! I had overheard that surgery nurses can be “surly,” so my friends and I plotted to make my nurses the nicest and happiest in the hospital. Naturally, we landed on bringing them sweet treats. Since I was too busy to bake anything myself, my AMAZING AMAZING friend, Kimmy, of Yummy Scapes offered to make treats for everyone. Ahhh! I am the luckiest girl in the world with the greatest friends! Look how hilarious and adorable these Strawberry Cake Brain Pops are!

As if those adorable pops weren’t enough, Kimmy also made Oreo Cookie Chocolate Bark, Organic Chocolate Chip Cookies, and Organic Strawberry Cake, all topped with homemade Brain molded lollipops! AHH!

Thank you so much, Kimmy!!!

If you’re throwing a shower, birthday party, or special event in S.Cal, you must check out Yummy Scapes to do your dessert table!

Ginger-spice Cookies from Williams-Sonoma Catalogue

By Dessert Darling · October 15th, 2012


These ginger-spice Halloween cookies from the Williams-Sonoma catalogue remind me of the German “peppernut” cookie, Pfeffernusse.  They bubble out and have a soft consistency, with a thin, mild, and hardened glaze that somewhat tempers the strong spices and cloves in the cookie.  With only 2.5 grams of fat for five little cookies, these are a very low-fat and forgiving treat.  While these Gingerbread cookies aren’t quite the way grandma made them, they’re cute to put out in a bowl or tray for Halloween festivities. Kids would surely love the fun and colorful options and they’re just the right size for little hands. Just don’t buy these cookies in hopes of total decadence, otherwise, you’ll be tricked expecting your treat.

Donsuemor does Madeleines Right

By Dessert Darling · September 24th, 2012


Madeleines aren’t exactly the treat that get me jumping up and down for joy, but when done right, they could almost compete with the real desserts of the world. While Madeleines look like cookies, they’re actually small sponge cakes that are distinctively shaped like shells. Madeleines make lovely additions to sophisticated gatherings like teas, luncheons, and showers.

Donsuemor recently sent me a box of Madeleines that included Lemon Zezt, Chocolate, regular, and chocolate dipped Madeleines. Mmm, I was impressed! Surprisingly so! These fresh treats smelled of rich butter and were adequately sweet for my tastes. I also loved the spongy yet buttery consistency. Well done Donsuemor!

Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookies: My Sweet Pick of the Week

By Dessert Darling · September 7th, 2012

Back to School time just seems like cookie and PB-&-J time, so what better idea than to combine the two staples into one Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookie. I mean, just how delightful do these treats by Pip & Ebby look!?

I’m kinda going gaga over this image. These cookies would also make great, late night wedding treats since drunk palettes like a little salty-savory with their sweets!

Society Bakery in Dallas, Perhaps the Sweetest Ever!

YeeHaw! Society Bakery in Dallas nearly earns 5 cherries for the concepts alone! First off: Bread Pudding Woopie Pies. Holy Smokes- GENIUS! These creative Whoopies have a distinct cinnamon presence and a sassy secret ingredient in the cream cheese frosting that makes them super delish!

Secondly: the name “Society” doesn’t stand for “high society,” but rather, this incredible bakery gives back to society, donating to over 100 different charities, schools, and non-profit organizations a year! Wow-wee! Now what could be sweeter than that?

Hansen’s Cookies.. they should stick to their day job… CAKES!

By Dessert Darling · May 1st, 2012

When I stopped by Hansen’s Cakes to buy cupcakes for a friend’s birthday, I couldn’t resist getting some of their cookies. I’d never before seen cookies at the famous cake bakery and thought it my duty to try them, even if they looked unappealing in plastic wrap. Thankfully, the cookies didn’t smell of plastic the way some wrapped goods do, but that’s where the good news ends. I got a White Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter Cookie which were both nearly too firm to break. The rubbery crumbles in my mouth tasted stale, despite the fact that the sale’s lady swore otherwise. I call bluff. Cookies aside, Hansen’s makes the most delightful cupcakes, and at only $1 buck a pop, you can’t go wrong them. Stay tuned for Hansen’s cupcake review tomorrow.
