Mocha Cake Truffles!

These Mocha Cake Truffles are a little buttery, and a little chocolaty, with a bit of coffee mixed in, they are REALLY GOOD!

Back Porch Tea House

There is a great little shop in Willard called The Back Porch Tea House.  It has a store in the front with flowers, antiques and gifts.  In the back, you can eat lunch most days and they just started having dinner on the weekends.  They have started carrying my Cake Truffles!  So, if you are in Willard, stop by for something to eat and try a new flavor of Jean Marie's Cake Truffles!

Here is their website:  http://www.villageflowersandmercantile.com

If you are looking for a gift for someone, I will have Halloween and Fall assortments available from me anytime, and you will be able to go into the Tea House and get them too!  I will post a pic of my Halloween boxes soon....they are so cute!

Happy Birthday Cake Truffles

This is an order of custom Birthday Cake Truffles.  Besides being delicious, they look so great on a platter for a birthday party!  These aren't all Birthday Cake flavor though.  There is a row each of Birthday Cake, Orange Dream, and Very Berry.  Happy Birthday Michelle!

Here are my individually wrapped CAKE POPS

I had someone ask to see what my cake pops look like when they are individually wrapped, so here is a photo of one.  This is a yummy Oreo Cookie Cake Pop.  My Oreo Cookie Cake Truffles are equally as good, just not on a stick!!

The flavors in this picture are Pumpkin, Chocolate Brownie Mint, Oreo Cookie, and Mocha....

Sprinkle Delivery....

My newest sprinkle colors came in, finally!  Here's a picture, aren't they pretty?  :)

I'm gonna make A LOT of CAKE POPS!

I get sooooo excited when the UPS or the Fed EX guy pulls up!  That means I am getting something fun!  It is like Christmas!  Even sucker sticks get me excited, can you believe it?  I got these yesterday, and they are three different lengths, which is exciting too!  (I know, I am a dork).

I usually only have two different lengths of sticks, but I need a middle length for a wedding order of Cake Pops that I am doing in a few weeks.

I am very anxiously waiting for the UPS guy today, Terry.  Terry, where are you?  I am SUPPOSED to be getting a shipment of some new sprinkles (or jimmies, that name sounds weird to me, so I say sprinkles).  Now, new sprinkles.....THAT is exciting, right?

I'll post a picture, if they ever get here!

13th Birthday Cake

So, since I posted Paige's cake, I thought, to be fair, I should post Jessica's too.  This is the cake I made for her birthday this year.  We redid her room and she moved on from the pink and purple flowers look to a more grown-up blue, brown, and tan.  Her cake matches her room!

Paige's Scooby Doo Cake

Paige just had her 4th Birthday, time really does fly!  I had an entirely different cake planned for her birthday.  Then, just a few weeks before her BD, she informs me that she wants a Scooby Doo birthday.....so, here is how it turned out!  I like it OK, not my best work, but she loved it, i guess that is all that matters!

Here is the latest list of FLAVORS!

   I have been spending A LOT of time lately trying to perfect my recipes.  There are so many great flavors to choose from!
   BUT, I really need to get them narrowed down to the best ones to streamline my production.  Soooo, here is the latest list of flavors that I feel are ones that most everyone will love!
  
Regular flavors......Chocolate Chocolate, Red Velvet, Very Berry, Birthday Cake, Wedding Cake, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, German Chocolate, and Mocha.

Mocha is the newest one here, and let me just say....IT IS SO GOOD!

Specialty flavors.....Ambrosia Rum, Snickerdoodle, Orange Dream, Lemon Poppyseed, Chocolate Brownie Mint, and Oreo Cookie.

I have two more that I am close to being satisfied with and will share them with you soon!

Here are pics of my TRUFFLE TINS!

I have a pretty large assortment of tins with windows in the top.  The window really makes the gift because the truffles are so pretty to look at in there!  There are two sizes, the large tins hold 21 cake truffles with seven different flavors and small tins hold 10 cake truffles with five different flavors.  I can't get any more tins from my current source and I have been searching the internet for another place to order them, with no luck so far.  But, for now, I have lots of them in many different designs....just trying to plan ahead!

It's too late to turn back now!

   Jean Marie's Cakery is official now!  I have bought my website name and am going to make a real attempt to keep up with this blog about all of my cake truffle adventures. I have other things in mind to add to the cake truffles and cake pops that I make, more about that later!
   I am really enjoying trying out new cake recipes and tweaking them until they can be turned into perfect cake truffle flavors. That is probably my favorite part of this experience, next to decorating them when they are done.
   It is so satisfying to put them in a box or tin, when they are decorated in different ways, nestled in there all cute in their cupcake papers......

I LOVE IT!

Cake Truffles are a really great gift idea for friends and family or even corporate gifts for your clients. They are beautiful on trays or wrapped individually as party favors.  Your wedding and party guests will be in awe when they see these....then amazed when they find out how unbelievably delicious they are!
