I discovered a new dessert topping! I don't know if you are aware of the power of lemon curd, but I was blissfully naive about this delicious topping until very recently.
Last week I found myself sitting around trying to decide what I should blog about next when I thought it might be fun to get some new opinions in the conversation, and boy was that a good idea! Quite a few ideas were raised (that you will be seeing soon on this blog), but one idea made my friend Sankalp SO excited that I had no choice but to help him make it come to life. What was this idea?
Lemon curd and coffee cake!
"Lemon curd" you say? "That won't go well with coffee cake!" Well when I started this I have to say that I had my doubts, too. But I trusted in Sankalp's judgement, and boy did it pay off!
We know no week is complete without some words from My Grandma's, so we are here to feed your coffee cake needs. (But seriously! We are giving away a free cake that can actually feed you!)
Today we wanted to talk about care packages again, but in a bit of a different way. As Autumn has slipped upon us schools have been reopening all over the world. You might even say that this year's college freshmen are starting to get the hang of college!
As they do, they are realizing the differences between college and home and starting to crave a few things. Care packages are often the best way to fill those cravings, and so instead of just telling you what I think your students might want, I am going to let them tell you themselves!
I asked a few of my (and My Grandma's) freshmen friends to tell you what they would want to find in their ideal care package while eating My Grandma's New England Blueberry Coffee Cake. Enjoy!
What do you like to drink with your coffee cake? Tea? Coffee? Water? Chocolate milk?
My favorite might just be tea (or maybe that's just because I am starting to feel a cold coming on). And I decided this weekend to make something to make my tea-drinking experience easier and more fun. What I love about this project, though, is that it could be used for any of the above drinks or just about anything at all.
My Grandma's of New England loves to share. We love to share coffee cake, gluten-free desserts, DIYs, and refrigerator-decorating moments! And lately we have started taking pictures of us indulging in our products with My Grandma's friends and family, and we want to share what Grandma means to us!
What does "Grandma" mean to you? Is it a grandmother who loves to cook? Your favorite funny older family member? The woman who hosts every one of your family get-togethers? Or your favorite coffee cake company?
With Labor Day just passed, it really does feel like Summer has come to a close. I am back in school, and with the Summer heat finally starting to break, a memorable goodbye to the season somehow seems in order even though we have three weeks until the official end of Summer. We like to end our seasons with some My Grandma's treats and I'm sure you would, too! So we are giving away a free coffee cake or gluten free treat pack this month! Just scroll down to enter before September 12th!
