Do you love the sweet tang of Meyer lemons?

~Lemon Bliss~


A new Scrumptious cookie has made it to the menu and is a hit!  Lemon has become our "signature" flavor.  And, with the popularity of our Lemon Specialty Bar we decided to expand on that and try for another favorite.  We use only organic Meyer lemons, so you can't go wrong!   The batter for this cookie is light and fluffy, containing fresh lemon zest and fresh squeezed lemon juice.
Meyer Lemon Zest


Fresh Squeezed Organic Meyer Lemon Juice



As I can't reveal the secret Scrumptious recipe....I can say that batter is scooped onto the pan, and dusted with powdered sugar before these soft, lemony delicious cookies are baked.
Powdered Sugar = the sweet secret

The result = lemon bliss!  Shown here is our small "bite size" version, also available in our large cookie.  This cookie is also available in a Gluten Free version!  (Which I selfishly created for myself because I personally just love this cookie and I wanted to be able to eat it too!)  The nice thing about this sweet treat is that it is not a heavy or filling cookie.  It is just the right amount of sweet combined with a tiny tart taste to fulfill that sweet bite that some of us need after a meal. (Like me!)  It's a great refresher!

These cookies are perfect to serve at a Sunday Brunch, for a tea party, or on a dessert bar opposite a rich chocolate flavored item.  I know that these will be the perfect Spring touch as well as a personal favorite in the gluten free version, come this Mother's Day at our families annual celebration.
Enjoy a bite of something simply Scrumptious today!

Valentine's Day is in the Air

Cherry Charmer Cookie

Valentine's Day is in the air here at Scrumptious!

I have two sweet treats in store for you next month and on Valentine's Day.  Introducing our NEW Cherry Charmer cookie!  This is a shortbread based cookie with maraschino cherries and white chocolate chips, half dipped in white chocolate, with the edge rolled in red sugar crystals.  It is as Yummy as it is Cute!  These are perfect to give to your kids, to their teachers as a sweet gift, or to serve at a family gathering.  These are going to be our Sampler Box of the month and will be available on 2/14/12 for the low introductory price of $14 for a dozen of these large size cookies.
Chocoholics Injected Cupcake

Our second Valentine's special is for the Chocolate Lovers out there, like myself.  Our Cupcake of the Month is a Chocoholics Injected Cupcake; dark chocolate cake injected with chocolate mousse and a chocolate butter cream frosting.  This frosting is so light and fluffy, not a heavy rich flavor, and is then perfectly topped with red valentine hearts.  These come in a 6-pack for $18 or individually for $3.

Both items are available for delivery and will come in our signature chocolate brown box, wrapped in red satin ribbon.  You may also attach a love note or custom message, all FOR FREE.
