Fab Recipe: Caramel Apple Rose Puff Pastry
Flowers are so basic… but Caramel Apple Roses are definitely not! I’ve never been a big flower person and my husband knows never to buy me any. Even at our wedding, I wanted the least number of flowers possible. Yes, they are beautiful to look at and pleasant to smell, but they never last very long….

Fab Recipe: Spiced Apple Bundt Cake
There are many reasons why Fall is my favorite season. It’s that time of the year that I pull out my favorite sweatpants, walk on top of crunchy leaves, huddle over bonfires, and sip warm apple cider. However, what I really look forward to is baking at home. As this picturesque season comes to an end, I feel the need to make the most out of these great fall flavors and ingredients. There is nothing like the smell that comes from your oven when you bake with apples. They are so versatile and go well with almost anything. I love to make applesauce, apple butter, pies, or simply dice and freeze them….
Fab Recipe: No Bake Vanilla Bean Cheesecake
There are a few things in life that I cannot live without. One of them would be my ever-growing collection of Snapware food storage containers (both plastic and glass). I know I am not the only one who has an obsession with these life/food savers. They have an airtight lid so I don’t ever have to worry about spillage. I use Snapware containers for my lunch everyday and to store all my ingredients or leftovers. It has helped me immensely to be more organized in my kitchen. As a pastry chef, organization is everything. The same rule applies at home. The more organized you are, the more efficient you will be in the kitchen. With the daily stress of my overly busy life, anything that will help save time is greatly appreciated….
