Cemetery Dessert Bowls!

 Here are the little Cemetery dessert bowls I made for our Halloween dinner. They're so easy to make and they're delicious, although not calorie friendly 👻

Love the spooky eyes peeking from underground 👻

Well, friends, this is the last of my Halloween posts for 2022.

It's time to focus on Christmas, after all there are only 55 days day left!

Wishing you all a Spook-tacular Halloween!

Till next time,

Christmas Dessert Treat No. 3

 Today was the last Thursday that hubby took a dessert to work as he is on Christmas break till the New Year :-)  A much deserved break!
So for today, I purchased these cute little chocolate Gnome Santas at the World Market and made a cute treat box to present them.  Just makes them a little bit more festive, don't you think?

The treat box is actually a hand sanitizer gift box file from Silhouette.  I changed it and resized it so that the little gnomes would fit securely in them.  Added a bow, a couple of bells and a little gem to finish it off. And then I decided that the Merry Christmas stickers I had gotten from Hobby Lobby were just the perfect size for these treat boxes, so I added each one to a piece of white cardstock and adhered it to each little box. And that was it ... done.  From what hubby told me, everyone loved them as much as I enjoyed making them, so win-win!  😀

Thanks for stopping by.  I'll be back tomorrow with my Fairy Stamper Friday share, so do come back and visit if you can. I love having you here and enjoy reading each and every comment.

Merry Christmas,

Christmas Dessert Treat No. 2

 So I saw similar on Pinterest and wanted to give it a try and make them for hubby's dessert table at work. I love how these Candy Santa sleighs came out, but thank goodness I have a dual setting heat gun! It was easy to use on the cool setting without melting any of the chocolate.

These each contain the following:

2 Candy Canes

1 Kit Kat (regular size)

5 Hershey Mini Bars

1 Dove Gift Dark Chocolate

1 Russel Stover Chocolate Santa

Yum!

They were very time consuming but so fun to put together. And I behaved ... I only had two Santas while working on them :-)

According to hubby, they were a great hit, so it was well worth the hours spent and it makes me happy to have brought a little Christmas cheer.

Thanks for stopping by everyone.

Merry Christmas

Christmas Dessert Treat No. 1

 Hello everyone.  Christmas is such a special time of the year! I love it!  From the hustle and bustle to the traditions and treats.  One tradition is the dessert table at hubby's work.  It begins on the first Thursday of December and goes on till the week before Christmas when a lot of people take off for the holidays.

 For the first Thursday of this month, I made these treat boxes.  No, I didn't make the bundtinis this time, as I didn't have enough time, but I made the treat boxes to put them in as each treat had to be individually wrapped as per Covid guidelines.

I used a file from the Silhouette store and created this box. I had to adjust the width of the insert in order to fit the little bundtinis but it worked out perfectly as they were securely placed in each box.

I used a little pinecone and berries pick to decorate the top of each box and to use it as a closure.

And here they are, all 18 of them :-) I placed them all in my largest cookie sheet and tied them together to keep the ones hanging over the edge from falling :-)

I don't mind telling you that due to hubby's short notice (men!!) I was up until 4:00 am making these treat boxes, but they were packaged and delivered on time, and from what hubby says, and emails I read, they were a great hit, so it was worth it.  Of course, to ensure that the little bundtinis tasted good, I had to proof taste one at about 3:00 am while busy working on the boxes.  It was delicious and accompanied by a cup of hot cocoa 😀

I'll be back soon to share desserts 2 & 3.
