Life is short. Eat dessert first!

Whether I'm creating specialty cupcakes for a baby shower, making hundreds of mini desserts for a Yelp event, or simply baking some cookies for friends - I absoloutely adore desserts!  Sugar? Yes! Flour? Oh yeh! Chocolate? Gimme, gimme! 

Pastries Not Potatoes is not only a blog, but my tiny little dessert only catering company as well.  I've been in the food business for more than ten years and I can't think of anything better than to share my love of food with not only Chicago, but the world!

    This past Saturday was my friend Sarah's birthday...And my gift to her was thisnew%20024.jpg awesomely yummy chocolate caramel cake!  We celebrated her big day at Whiskey Road, drinking $3 Mystery Beers (still have no idea what it was!) and battling each other in Guitar Hero!

    I love being able to do things like this for my friends, and having them say to me "You've really outdone yourself!".  Not only does it feel good to put a smile on their face and warmth in their bellies, but I love that a simple act of creativity can go such a long way.
