The Best Blueberry Muffins

Blueberry muffins3It has, sadly, been too long since I shared a baking recipe with all of my very patient readers.  I have had less time to bake as I continue working on the retail side of Sweet Jumbles, trying to keep up with our Gourmet Marshmallow orders.  Earlier this summer we celebrated our 1,000th order (that’s order of any size, not individual item, and some orders are quite large!) and things have been consistently busy all year.

Refrigerator Pickles

IMG_0056 Spring is coming!

Lots of changes in Sweet Jumbles-land.  Though all are completely unrelated to this blog or the Sweet Jumbles Gourmet Marshmallows, our time has been occupied with minor medical issues, a new job (yes, I do something other than bake!), and my birthday (party, party!). Continue reading

Hot Chocolate Pudding

Hot Chocolate PuddingSo here’s the thing, I had an excess of hot chocolate.  While I’ll enjoy a mug or three each winter, I had accumulated numerous packages and canisters of hot chocolate powder over the years, and in my small kitchen it was occupying valuable space.  Unable to convince myself to throw it out, I happily discovered a recipe for chocolate pudding made from hot chocolate mix!

Apple Cider Caramel Cookies

2015 is here!  Happy New Year to all of our friends and followers!  We hope you had a wonderful holiday season and that a great year lies ahead.

We had some time this past weekend to bake cookies, using ingredients that we just so Apple Cider Caramel Cookies1happened to have on hand.  These Apple Cider Caramel cookies are a great wintertime recipe.  (As an aside, you could totally omit the caramel and they’d still be delicious.)  I still have a ton of caramel cubes sitting around so don’t be surprised if they pop up again in a future post!

Baked Apple Chips

The Christmas season means that Sweet Jumbles is spending most of our time selling our marshmallows.  Therefore, it’s really not until the last-minute that we’re able to enjoy any seasonal baking or Christmas cookie decorating.  Apple Chips (1)

Raspberry Lemonade Bars

Raspberry Lemon BarsIt has certainly been a busy summer.  I’ve done a fair amount of baking, but several recipes simply weren’t “pretty” enough to blog, a few weren’t good enough to encourage you to make, and others were repeats that I have shared with you before.  Finally, I now have a recipe worthy of sharing that I hope you will enjoy.

Ice Cream BonBons

BonBons 1I love ice cream, and I have been holding on to a BonBons recipe from Food & Wine for some time.  I finally got around to making them, and it about drove me to the nut  house  – not because they were all that complicated or impossible, but because the recipe was terrible!  (A surprise, as Food & Wine generally publishes pretty accurate instructions.)
