Mon Tresor, Sweet Little Birdy, Nourish Your Soul, and some sweet treats!

A couple of weeks ago we were lucky enough to be a part of a gorgeous photo shoot by Renee Bell Photographer. Not only are the shots beautiful, but it makes me want a cup of that sublime tea by Nourish Your Soul.

I love the colours, the vintage feel, reminds me of tea with my grandma, and my sister's collection of vintage wares all at the same time. 

Jon and I enjoy a cup of tea every night before bed. I know it's such an old married couple thing to do...but there's nothing wrong with that! I love old couples, who sit together on park benches, finish each other's sentences and still look at each other with that sparkle in their eye. Oh, I really am a hopeless romantic. 

So what do we love to have with out tea? That's easy. Right now, it's those sweet but complicated macarons - Ispahan! What a flavour combination. Mind blowing! Raspberry centre, with a lychee and rose ganache....just thinking about it makes me drool, literally!! They are by far the best sweet I've ever had!

But what post about tea and sweets would be complete without our renowned Brownie Bites! These little chocolate morsels create intensive feelings in our customers. Nothing is quite like this little babies! They have been described as "the perfect little chocolate pillow", "heaven" and "the best things ever!!". And even though I make them, I still to this day can't eat just one! They are popable perfection. And what about these gorgeous cups available from Mon Tresor, stand from Sweet Little Birdy.

So if you are after some sweet treats such as these, pop into our store in Mount Hutton and check them out for yourself.

Grand Opening Party of our Sugar Rush Cakery in Mount Hutton!

Last week we had an amazing time, with friends, fans and clients, at our Grand Opening Party. It was a great chance for us to let our hair down, showcase our products, and get real feedback on our new sweet treats.

We were extremely lucky to have Roger from Popcorn Photography there who graciously took photos of our candy bar. For anyone looking for a wedding photographer in the Hunter Valley, check out these guys! Mere and Rog are an awesome couple, with awards, and the fastest turn-around time I've ever seen in the biz. Highly recommend you see for yourself.

Guests included Renee Bell -  an amazing couples photographer, and the best baby photographer we have ever seen, in the world!, Leighsa from Michelle-Leigh Photography, who did all our new in-store images, Hello Naomi - one of my best friends, and a cupcake extraordinaire, Valerie from White Magazine, as well as marketing guru's and web designers. It was truly a who's who of Newcastle & Sydney, and we felt very blessed to have them all in our store!

As we suspected, our Brownie Bites were a huge hit! No one can seem to have just one! These little babies are now available to two different sizes of bags, one makes the perfect wedding bonbonniere, whilst the other large 40 pack is perfect for eating with a cup of tea, in front of an open fire...or the telly!

 We have also added some more awesome little treats. Our Rosewater meringues are so divine, like eating perfume - and yet somehow that's a good thing! 

We discovered that every bag of these sold out that night! Other sweets we now have in the store are coconut ice, marshmallows, cookies and our very cool rock candy swizzle sticks.
