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!

    48 Reasons to Try Something New...

    DateSaturday, July 18, 2009 at 02:44PM

     

    Iron Cupcake Chicago has been a huge success, and the competition is moving full steam ahead!

    June's secret ingredient was citrus, followed by tropical fruit in July. It was only a few days ago that the theme for August was announced - and low and behold, they are looking for savory cupcakes!!!

    Savory cupcakes are becoming more of a trend these days. I've seen bakeries selling everything from BLT cupcakes to curry cupcakes - even recipes online for a corned beef and cabbage cupcake! Whew!

    So, I'll be out at Veranda again on August 3 at 6pm introducing two brand new flavors from the Pastries Not Potatoes kitchen. Hope to see you there!
