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.

Poinsettia Soaps!

I just keep making soap! I made fun kids soaps in the blog below, and here I've made some Christmas soaps. These are red glycerin poinsettias with soap glitter in them. They are scented with an essential oil called "Christmas Spirit." 
Two for $6.00

Fun Kid Soaps!

I made some new soaps today! The first one has a soap fish inside. I made the blue fish and then embedded it in clear glycerin soap! It's scented with honey almond. Cost: $2.50




The rest of these soaps have plastic toys in them. I have only two elephant heads, only two frogs, (their eyes pop out when you squeeze them) and lots of the clown fish (they are really finger puppets)! These are all scented with peppermint. 
Hexagon with toy - $3.00


Circle with toy - $3.00 
Square with toy - $3.50 (it weighs more)


Rectangle with toy - $4.00 (it's the biggest soap)

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!

Christmas Tree Stacked Soap!

If you're looking for a pine-scented stack of soaps that look like a Christmas tree, you've come to the right place. :-D  I can make them and I add a little soap glitter too. Trees are $6 apiece.



Guest Soaps!

I wanted to show you my holiday guest soaps. They come packaged for gift giving. The angels, gingerbread boys, and snowmen come in a set of six for $3. The cupcakes I sell in a set of five for $5, or I could make six for $6. (Cupcakes weigh more.) I have the following scents: lavender, lavender-vanilla, orange, Christmas spirit, honey almond, apple, woodland pine, peppermint, and calming jasmine. I'm low on lemon and orange spice but could get some more.


Snowmen are white glycerin. Angels can be gold like the gingerbread boys, white like the snowmen, or pale shades of other colors, like that pale yellow here.
