Giving Gifts from your Kitchen


A handcrafted gift from the kitchen is enjoyable to make and even better to receive. Present your love of the kitchen with sweet or savory treats that simply, yet elegantly, join in this season of giving and sharing. IN THIS ISSUE, we offer six gifts from the kitchen that are easy to make, and sure to be enjoyed by the lucky recipient - Pistachio Sugarplums, Chocolate Truffles, Italian Style Crackers, Glazed Nuts (sweet or spicy), and a Hazelnut Brittle. You'll also find patterns for handcrafted boxes and packaging. We also share our favorite picks for gift giving this year!

A couple of our favorite recent posts on Facebook:

Nov 14 - Tip of the Day: A well-floured pastry cloth works wonders when rolling out dough, but it can get stale fairly quickly. Prevent this by keeping it in the freezer in a plastic bag. The cloth gets better with use. Just scrape it clean with a dough scraper after use, fold it up, and freeze. A bonus is the cold surface for rolling out your dough.

Nov 13 - Tip of the Day: When making pie dough, shape the dough into flat disks instead of balls before chilling. This makes the chilled dough easier to roll out.
