Candy Corn Twist



I saw these this weekend, and just had to share. These are so adorable and so creative! Made by the wonderful Barbara over at Barbara Bakes. Hopefully these taste better than regular candy corn!! These were made for MacTweets, another blog dedicated to all things Mac! Barbara also features some other amazing Mac recipes on her blog as well! Find the recipe and instructions for these here.

Welcome Harvest....














Not interested in throwing a blow-out Halloween bash? Why not have a few guests over for a Fall celebration? I love all of these ideas from Better Homes and Gardens. Make some spiced apple cider, roast some S more's around a campfire, and cozy up with friends and family. What a great way to welcome in the Fall season. Find all of these ideas, and more, here.

Donut Love

I don't know about you, but I LOVE donuts! Pretty much every flavor too! I love the idea of giving donuts, as favors, at an event. Or even having a donut bar! How cute! Here are some cute ideas for cute donut favors.

How cute are these little packages for Cinnamon Sugar donut holes?! The best part is that Hello! Lucky offers a free printable for them! Find the printable here.

Individual containers of mini donuts

I love the brown paper packaging and simple sticker for this Donut Soap. Too cute!


Fresh donuts made on site...count me in! Love the little bags of donuts!

Using clear bags helps guests see exactly what they are taking home for later!

Super cute Donut towels

Let guests take home their very own boxes of Krispy Kreme's

How about a donut and coffee or hot chocolate to go? Love these personalized mug wrappers!



What's a donut without some milk?

Sometimes a pretty bow is all you need!

Delightful Dipping!


I can smell and feel Fall in the air and one thing I love about the fall is Caramel Apples! These adorable caramel apple toppers are made by Cathy Heck Studio. How perfect are these as a treat to bring to your child's school or even into the office! And I won't hold it against you if you decide to keep them at home and eat them all yourself either! You can find the template for the free toppers here, and the how-to directions here. And if you need a recipe for the perfect caramel apple, try this Sweet and Salty Caramel Apple recipe. Happy dipping!
