The Clouds in Heaven MUST be Made of Icing...

I don't know if you have ever seen this, but if you ever get a chance to look at a batch of buttercream icing swirling around in a mixer, do it. It is the most mesmerizing, brilliant, perfect cloud of silkiness that you will ever see. The longer it mixes, the smoother it gets and the sheen becomes the most perfect and dazzling luster... It is almost a quite personal experience!

Today's lesson is about sharing. So many people come into our shop and see the size of our portions and think to themselves... "I could never ever eat that entire brownie!" Let me give you a hint... These things were made to share! Sharing is one of the gestures that shows the most love towards your friends and family! Sharing is the easiest way to say, "Hey. I know we are friends and I know you don't mind eating after me because we are just that close." And, most importantly, sharing immediately cuts the amount of calories consumed in half, so it makes it OK to eat! (And, the more friends you bring, the more you can share, and the less calories - it is a very simple equation.)

So, next time you eye one of the delicious sweets on the counter, don't let your inhibitions hold you back. Just turn around, tell your friend to share it with you and grab a fork! (It is also a very easy way to make a new friend.... )

Have a sweet day - and don't forget the Sweet Word for this week is Cheesecake! We will see you all soon!
