Salted Caramel Candy

If you’re a person who loves candies, we also have your back! Salted caramel candy is fuss-free but still pretty enough to give away as gifts for your Valentine. Make a big batch and enjoy the sweet and salty combination any time you need a little pick-me-up!

Cranberry-Orange Biscotti

Biscotti are dry biscuit-like cookies hailing from Italy. Traditionally dipped in coffee or tea, they’re just as delicious when eaten by themselves. Our honey biscotti are crunchy and sweet and perfect for sharing over a cup of tea with your honey. We recommend making this biscotti with either our Orange Blossom or Cranberry Honey.

Carrot Cake Bars

These healthy snack bars are lighter than our brownie sundae, so these are a great option if you want something sweet but safe for the waistline. Pack them full of nuts and chopped fruit, and they’ll make great energy bars or breakfast snacks. A box of these bars would be a perfect Valentine’s Day Treat for your friend who loves hiking and is always on the run!

Fruit is Nature's Candy

Honey Baked Apple

For something fruity, try a baked apple. Easy to make, they’re a healthy treat that you won’t feel bad about snacking on. Imagine how good one of these would be with a bit of whipped cream and a drizzle of honey. Stuff them with your favorite granola blend for an added crunch that will keep you coming back for more.

Caramelized Pears

These pears are elegant, easy, and delicious when paired with vanilla ice cream. These are very pretty, too, especially sliced over a bowl of ice cream. Pears are soft and packed with natural sugars that caramelize during cooking. Bring richness to the treat that your Valentine will love.

Poached Pears

You can also poach pears! Poaching fruit deeply imbues the flavor of all the ingredients in the pan and heightens the rich natural sweetness found in the flesh of the pear. Our version is done with a bit of brandy and vanilla and are great served warm or cold.

Baked Goods

Parisian Honey Rum Cake

The history of the rum cake is fascinating. When researching the origins of rum cake, I learned that the recipe, inspired by figgy pudding and other steamed puddings popular before the 16th century in the United Kingdom. The Rum cake recipe was invented in honor of steamed pudding by early settlers who arrived in the Caribbean. The method for steamed pudding is complicated, and most amateur cooks weren’t fond of following all of the steps.

Apple Tart

Sweet breakfast treats that double as an ideal way to end a romantic dinner. Another yummy apple treat is our Apple Tart. It’s beautiful, especially when you take the extra time to correctly align the apple slices and gently fold ridges into the dough. Trust us; it’s worth the little bit of effort to make it perfect.

Cherry Cobbler

Cherry Cobbler can be made fresh with fresh cherries in season and frozen cherries in winter. Serve warm with ice cream or greek yogurt. A gluten-free and guilt-free take on the recipe is as good for breakfast as dessert.

Chocolate Dipped Honey Lollipops

For a short time each year, we offer our Chocolate Dipped Lollipops. Handcrafted, these are a real gourmet treat that you should share with someone you love. We love to stir these into a hot cup of coconut milk for a quick “hot chocolate” drink. But really, these never last long enough to make it to the kitchen.
