Thanksgiving Point Wedding Show Favorites



The wedding show on Saturday was so much fun!

We saw tons of cute things and there were lots of contests and activities.

My favorite booth was called Details by Ramey. Adorable stuff!!! I’m definitely having her do invitations and center pieces for my wedding!



My next favorite was the booth right next to us. It was called Prints Charming. They do photo booths at wedding receptions! I had never heard of that before, but I had lots of fun taking pictures!

There were a lot of gorgeous wedding dresses. These girls below were models for the Allyse’s Bridal wedding dresses. I couldn’t decide which one was my favorite. What do you think?



And last, a for sure thing that I would love to have at my own wedding are these decorative balloon things that Design Elite does. Beautiful.

St. Patrick's Day!

It is almost St. Patrick’s Day!! My family always celebrates by wearing green of course, but another one of my favorite traditions is making corned beef and cabbage paninis! It’s a classic! Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. The Kara Chocolates store at the University Mall has all kinds of fun St. Patrick’s Day candy if you are looking for something festive! Also, don't forget to check our Facebook page for contests and prizes. This week you could win a giant jar of bubble gum!

Gold Doubloons


My little brother absolutely loves these chocolate gold coins! He calls them gold doubloons because he watches Jake and the Never-land Pirates, a show for little kids on Disney Junior. We do these coins for St. Patrick's Day but they are fun for pirate parties and treasure hunts too!

An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away

It’s almost Valentine’s Day!!! And we are crazy busy getting ready here at the factory! There is a lot to do! Today, I was in charge of making caramel, chocolate apples. I lucked out because these are my favorite!

It’s a long process… first we have to de-steam, wash and dry the apples. Next we stick all of them with sticks. After that, we dip them in caramel. When the caramel sets up its time to dip them in chocolate. Then finally they are ready to be decorated! Some of them we carefully string with milk, and white chocolate to make our drizzled apples and some of them are covered with cinnamon sugar to make our famous apple pie apples!

Salted Caramels


We started experimenting with Salted Caramel!

We’ve got everything just about perfect! Now we are just experimenting with salt size! It’s a rivalry between large salt grains and small salt grains! The first batch we compromised and mixed the salt together so each caramel had a little of both! But, it's time to decide! What do you think?
