My Three Easter Treats

Sorry no time to blog! I am working two part-time jobs! One serving drinks at a cafeteria-style restaurant, and one in fast food, mixing up the ice cream drinks and shakes and such. I love it!

Here's what I made for Easter:

1) Easter dipped peanut brittle, orange flavored, and sprinkled with fun. :-)


2) Dreamsicle cookies - my grandma loved these and went home with the recipe!


3) Popcorn cake for Easter/Mom's birthday

Father's Day Brittle

So I've been busy graduating and job hunting these days. I want a good job in the food industry so I can keep doing what I love and earn money for a car and other things an adult like me needs!


Anyway, this weekend I am making hot and spicy peanut brittle. My dad likes spicy food, so I know he will love this candy! I'm also going to make cashew brittle. 


So, if anybody local would like to order some homemade brittle, it's not too late! It's $6 per half pound. ($7 if you want it coated in chocolate)


Happy Father's Day to all the good dads out there!

Anybody want to Bless their Mom with Cake Balls or Peanut Brittle?

Just thought I'd ask! It's not too late for people who know me to order some pretty cake balls or special peanut brittle to surprise their moms with. My peanut brittle can be ordered chocolate-covered for a deluxe treat. I can make pretty hand soaps in a variety of shapes, colors, and scents as well. 


Can you guess what I'm giving my mom?


Happy Mother's Day!

New! Easter Cross Pins!

I have a new handmade item for Easter. It's a cross pin made out of sequins and jewel glue (the kind that can be washed). I have lots of different colors of sequins. Here are three samples. I don't know why there is a glow around two of the pins. Anyway, I'm selling these for $3 each. Also, any of my other pins -- ladybugs, butterflies, frogs, and flowers -- are just $3 apiece. Cute Easter gift idea, right?


Don't forget that I make your favorite flavors of peanut brittle! I make yummy cake balls. And I make pretty soaps. Maybe you should add a bar of soap to your kids' Easter baskets. After they get candy all over their hands and faces, they can take a bath! LOL

Easter and Mother's Day!

Easter is April 24 this year. Mother's Day is May 8! I would love to make some special candy or decorative soaps for you, or maybe a beautiful butterfly or flower paper pulp pin! My Easter cake balls will be chocolate dipped in a white candy coating and sprinkled with colorful candy sprinkles. A cost for a dozen cakeballs is just $6.00!  A half-pound of peanut brittle is $6.00. It's $6.50 if you want marshmallows or red hots added. A half-pound of chocolate-dipped peanut brittle is $7.00.


Maybe you don't want to fill your Easter basket with calories. I have some pretty flower soaps! You just let me know what color and what scent you want, and I can make some special glycerin soaps for you! I also make fun soap with toys inside for children. Click here to see those soaps.


I have lots of different molds for my paper pulp jewelry as well. I've got butterflies, ladybugs, flowers, frogs, and ice cream cones! These brooches are just $3 apiece! Click here to check some of them out.


Animal Chocolate Pops!
I hope you will think of me when you start planning your Easter baskets and Mother's Day gifts. Jasmine's Blue Ribbon Treats and More won't let you down! (I need to make money for my prom and for my school's trip to Carowinds! I am graduating from high school in June!)


Candy and cake balls are for local delivery only, but I can mail soap and brooches. Thank you!

St. Patty's Day!

I just wanted to let you know that I'm going to make green dipped peanut brittle for St. Patty's Day! It will be fun!


I'm also thinking ahead to Easter. I'm going to be making cake bites coated in white candy and sprinkled with rainbow sprinkles. They will be pretty and yummy and perfect for Easter!

Valentine Goodies

It's a week till Valentines Day; are you ready? 


For people who don't want something sweet, I've got some lovely heart shaped soaps for $3 each. I've got gold hearts and red hearts with soap glitter in them. They are scented with a floral scent, and lavender vanilla is another option.


For the candy-lovers, I've got Valentine lollipops, two for a dollar. Two is the minimum order and they are 50 cents apiece above that. You can get flowers or hearts. They can be milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white mint, or red cherry flavored. The red cherry ones are featured here.


I've got peanut brittle at $6 a half pound, and it can be original or cinnamon. Then I've got chocolate-covered peanut brittle for $7 a half pound. Or I can cover the peanut brittle in a red vanilla flavored candy as pictured here. 


Finally, I've got cake balls! This week I'm making triple chocolate goodness cake balls, and another flavor that could be lemon, or butter pecan, or something else. All I need is someone to order a flavor! These cake balls get dipped in milk chocolate and drizzled or sprinkled with a pretty topping. Aren't they pretty? It takes two days to make them, so you need to order in advance to get them in time. They are six for $3 or a dozen for $6.  (I have an order that I will be delivering to someone's workplace as a surprise! That will be fun!)


You can scroll down my blog to find out more about my homemade soaps and candies. Thank you for visiting!

Valentine Cake Balls!

Okay, so my mom got all excited about cake balls, and I didn't even know what they were! She had some at her high school reunion and didn't bring any home. But she found a recipe and decided that I needed to learn how to make them. It sounded like fun, so I did, and it took forever! But they are so worth it, you would not believe how good these are, but trust me!


These are red velvet cake balls dipped in milk chocolate and drizzled with a little bit of white mint. I ran out of milk chocolate and had to use dark chocolate to finish dipping the cake balls. I love dark chocolate!


I'm thinking about taking little bags with 4 cakeballs in them to youth group and selling them to my friends for a dollar apiece. What do you think?
Naked Cake Balls

Dressed Cake Balls
I think these will be great for Valentine's Day!


Update: The red velvet cake balls are all gone now. So are the confetti cake balls I made. NOW I have triple chocolate goodness cake balls! Next on the list is lemon cakeballs! I bet they will be so good!


You can get six cake balls for $3.00 or a dozen for $6.00.

Valentine Treats!

I'm having snow days! I still have to do school, but I don't have my voice classes, so I have had time in the kitchen to make candy! I made some yummy red vanilla coated peanut brittle and some cherry-flavored lollipops. I experimented with the centers on the flowers. The snow sprinkles just melted and don't look special, but the colored sprinkles worked. I'm going to try different colors in the center of the flowers. (Chocolate is also available, of course, but it won't be red.)




Dipped peanut brittle is $7 per half pound. If someone wants a mail order, the total with shipping & handling would be $12, and I will add three Valentine lollipops for free!




Lollipops are 50 cents each for local deliveries, and I can make what you want - flowers or hearts. I have the face heart, LOVE heart, plus a Hugs n Kisses heart and plain heart that aren't pictured.

Ready for Christmas Orders!

I make painted paper pulp pins, fun soaps, and candy. I also deliver for free locally (in Greenville, SC area). For mailed orders, I would have to figure shipping costs. I live within a mile of the post office, so getting there will not be a problem!

Now, to see what I make, scroll down through my blog. You can request colors for pins, and scents and colors for the soaps!

My business email is blueribbontreats@gmail.com. You can send questions there or post them here.

I can accept PayPal orders with another email. Send me a message if you want to do that.

Thank you for stopping by! Let me know if I can help you!

Chocolate-covered Peanut Brittle!


Buy my peanut brittle! :-)

I have made all kinds of peanut brittle since 2003. I entered a candy competition in 2004 and won a blue ribbon! Because of all the blue ribbons I got over time, I started calling my candy "Jasmine's Blue Ribbon Peanut Brittle." I dream about having my own candy shop some day. I make original, cherry-flavored, orange-flavored, and cinnamon. Then I have made red hot peanut brittle, jelly bean peanut brittle, and fruity marshmallow peanut brittle.

After a lot of experimenting with chocolate, this weekend I made some great chocolate-covered peanut brittle!

So here's the idea. I want to sell chocolate-covered peanut brittle. Father's Day is Sunday! My dad loves my peanut brittle. I bet other dads would love it too. I will package it in half-pounds and pounds. It's $7 per half pound. I can deliver for free too in a ten mile radius from Greer.

If someone wants to order one of my other peanut brittles, they are $6 per half pound.

Thank you!

I'm starting my own business!


Well, it's summer. School's out. Yay! I wanted a job, but that didn't turn out, so I decided to make a job for myself. I learned how to make paper pulp jewelry! It's fun! I'm going to post pictures of my cool and funky pins here. I hope to sell some.


Besides the pins, I'm going to make candy to sell. I've won many blue ribbons for my peanut brittle. So I will make that, and I'm working on some more ideas. I already got an order for something sugar-free and chocolate, so I'm working on a recipe for fudge balls.


Next on my list is soap. Soap-making is fun, so I'll make some pretty soaps to sell.


Lastly, I may do something with my photos. Some of them would look really good hanging on a wall, don't you think? Maybe I will add Bible verses to pictures of flowers and butterflies and things.


More info coming soon! Yay!
