Baking the day away

I spent 9 hours yesterday helping my mom make edible presents for her co-workers.

We made for them:
- Caramel & Chocolate w/ Toffee Pretzel Sticks
- Caramel & Chocolate w/ White Chocolate Drizzle Pretzel Sticks
- Red Velvet Cake Balls
-Chocolate Drizzled Fiddle Faddle
-Chocolate Dipped Spiced Walnut Biscotti

Though all very simple to prepare it is all time consuming. Melting chocolate, decorating, remelting chocolate, preparing mixes, making frosting...I was exhausted

Finally how we packaged the Fiddle Faddle:

I was going to write a lot more but I just wanted this up for now. It was a long day and my kitchen is still a horror scene.

  2. They were very grateful, and I was very tired.

    Happy Holidays to you!
