Caramel Bars

I made these over the Christmas holiday and they were very popular.  I got a lot of positive feedback.  Here are some comments: 
Help me!  I can't stop eating the caramel log you sent us.  (R. in Marana, AZ),  Thank you for the caramel.  I keep going back to the kitchen for more.  (J. in Tucson, AZ),  Delicious!  (R. in Billings, MT),  I got the caramel log.  He got the See's Candy.  (J. in Marana, AZ)

Christmas is coming!

Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I've been thinking about decorating for Christmas.  I'm planning my attack.  The day after Thanksgiving I'll get out my many boxes of decorations, turn on the holiday music, and begin drenching everything in red and green.  I love Christmas!  And luckily I got to start just a little early with some Christmas Pretzels that were ordered as a snack for a soccer team this week.

Red Velvet made for Royalty

Today's cake pops and cake will be made for a Birthday Princess turning 6.  Red Velvet cake pops with Cream Cheese icing is the filling for the cake pops.  The cake will be Red Velvet with Buttercream icing, yummm.  Will add pictures of the finished products later on.

Fun Wikipedia note on Red Velvet:  A resurgence in the popularity of this cake is partly attributed to the 1989 film Steel Magnolias in which the groom's cake (a southern tradition) is a red velvet cake made in the shape of an armadillo.

            A Princess accessory that's completely edible.
