A Scrumptious First....Here's a retired recipe


Are you a fan of espresso or fancy coffee drinks?  (Because I definitely am!)  Mix that favorite flavor with cinnamon and sugar and the result is a Latte Doodle cookie.  Enjoy with your favorite hot beverage!

3/4 cups sugar
1 eggs

1/2 teaspoon soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Cream together butter, shortening and sugar. Add egg. Add vanilla and then grind instant coffee in a coffee grinder, till of powder consistency, and then add into bowl.  In a separate bowl mix together flour, cream of tartar, soda and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet.

Scrumptious Does Wedding Cakes

 Not only does Scrumptious create beautiful Wedding Cakes, but we can also cater a complete dessert bar or offer a sweet selection of Injected Cupcakes for your special day.


I arrived to the Mission Viejo Country Club in Orange County this past weekend ready to make some memories for one happy couple! 
This is the latest cake in our Wedding Cake rĂ©pertoire, and this is what it started out looking like. In this cake the top and bottom round tiers are made of Red Velvet cake with White Chocolate mousse filling.  The middle square tier is Royal White cake with Raspberry filling.  All covered in Vanilla butter cream frosting, adorned with filigree designs and trimmed in black ribbon.


Add some fresh flowers cascading down and around the cake as well as a little sparkle in a few crystals, and the look is completely transformed.


It's time to cut the cake....Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers, here's to you!

Sweetly Sprinkled,
