Day 4: The Flavors of Christmas… Peppermint

Peppermint.. The flavor alone reminds you of Christmas.. The candy cane would not be any other flavor! It has to be peppermint.. I see some are on the shelves this season are hot sauce flavored.. Not for me!

Here are two recipes for today.

Peppermint Brownies

Candy Cane MilkShake

Also here is a link for paper straws.. The Old Fashion feel of the paper straw will take you back to a simpler time. 

Tomorrows Flavor is...Hibiscus! 

Is English Toffee English?

A question I have pondered.. Just like is French Toast French? German Chocolate Cake German? 

All kidding aside.. Last night was a wonderful Truffle and Confection Class. I posted a few "Live" pictures from the scene in San Diego and texts, tweets and emails came in for the recipe for the English Toffee.

Here is the recipe.. and if you love it.. pre-post!  RECIPE

1981: Chocolate Truffle Torte.

Back Way Back I created this Chocolate Truffle Torte Recipe..

Change it up for your own tastes.. You can refrigerate it for a firm texture or keep it at room temperature for a creamy texture.

I used to make this as a wedding cake and wrap it in a sheet of chocolate then gold leaf it..
