Pie Party

The hubs recently took a new job and we are so excited for him. Depending who you ask, he seems to have a pretty sweet job. That's right he is working in a sweet goods department which means it is time for us to do some "sweets" research, to help him get acquainted with his new product. About a week ago, he suggested throwing a little get together to encourage other people to try the products, that way he could do little samples and check out packaging without leaving a house full of deserts for just the 2 of us.

So if the hubs can dream it, I try to make it happen. We started with an invite:


Followed it up with a pretty hefty grocery trip and we ended up with this:


And this:

And about 4 more pies and cakes that came out after we had all of this set up. It was a great night of yummies and research. As an overall take away, the hubs learned alot about the product (taste & packaging & easiness to prepare). Our guests all left with full bellies but before they went they shared a little bit on their favorite items.

The pound cake, a great basic for breakfast or a starting piece for a strawberry shortcake. The perfect amount of flavor to take it along ways.

The strawberry cheese cake bites were a huge hit with everyone. They were easy to piece on and super yummy.

The apple pie was another big hit. The crumbling goodness was delish and everyone in attendance wanted a bite of it. Check it out here

Last, but certainly not least was the delish breakfast sweets. The Pecan coffee cake & the cinnamon rolls came right out of the microwave in only a few short minutes smelling like something we had been baking for hours. They were so soft and delicious, everyone wanted a piece of it. Pic from here

The rolls were the hubs best man's favorite, quick someone tell his wifey: Photo from here

Overall, huge success. Thanks everyone who came out to support the hubs and his new job!
