It's dark and rainy outside today. I suppose I should expect it -- it is April -- but I miss the sunshine and could really use some color in my day. So I decided to add some of my own color to the day, with some bright and colorful cream cheese icing.

Pineapple Coconut Creamy Goodness

by Maggie Kelleher

My Grandma's is introducing a new flavor to our online customers, and we should all be excited. I know I am! I have tried My Grandma's pineapple coconut coffee cake and it is incredible! And you will love it too!

This pineapple coconut coffee cake is so moist that the entire cake has the consistency of the very center of the softest banana bread you have ever eaten. Yes, it's that good. And yes, it's fully baked. My Grandma's cakes are so moist and delicious that our customers sometimes claim the cake as their own recipe to their guests. It's such high praise, and we are so proud to be of service.

I’ve been in the Christmas spirit this week. And in combination with some free time to craft to my hearts desire, that spirit has turned into quite a fun and adorable little craft.

These tiny gingerbread houses are cute in their own right, but with strategically placed doors they are turned into mug-topping hot chocolate houses, or as I like to call them, cocoa-buddies.

Flavorful Fundamentals- All About Walnuts!

by Maggie Kelleher

Do you like walnuts? We here at My Grandma's definitely do. We put walnuts in many of the cakes we make! Luckily for those of you saying "ewww" to the idea of walnuts, it is also possible to special order any of our cakes without walnuts if you so choose, but this particular post might not be for you.

Why not?

A delicious walnut and streusel ribbon runs through the center of our Cinnamon Walnut Coffee Cake. 

Because this post is all about walnuts and the amazing things they do!
