Torta al Cioccolato al Tartufo... Chocolate Truffle Tarts...
Dinner with friends calls for a special dessert. Chocolate Truffle Tarts are pretty special... A Chocolate Almond Cookie Crust, with a Deep Dark Chocolate Truffle Filling... A perfect way to end a meal...

Pane... Bread...
There is something very satisfying about Baking Bread. I've been doing it almost daily. Today it was Ciabatta and Rustic Artisan Loaf... We shouldn't eat a loaf a day though... So, i'll give some away...

Un Piatto Per Dolci.... A Plate For Sweets...
I made another Candy Cake plate , this time using Green Starlight Mints. I simply put the candies close together in a circle, almost touching on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, then placed it in a preheated 350 oven for 9 minutes. It's just like the red one I made at Christmastime, but the Green Starlight Mints are pretty for Springtime Sweets... The color reminds me of that fresh , new green of Springtime...

Torta e Fiori... Cake and Flowers...
Mom's Birthday party was so much fun. The Pom Poms and Flowers made her smile.
She was so happy to see everyone and, at 92, loves being the center of attention. Unfortunately, we were all so busy having fun and eating lots of food that we didn't get very many good photos.
I made two cakes, neither of which do I have a decent picture of... One was a Red Velvet with Cream Cheese Frosting, and the other a Lemon Cake with Cream Cheese and Lemon Curd topped with Handmade Chocolate Roses that I painted with Luster Dust.
