Q4 bits and bites.

To say these last few months took a lot is an understatement. To say they gave even more, is accurate.

Baker friends, stock up on all things vanilla at @costco_canada - I felt this Aurora-like backdrop from @clubbackdrops was perfect for this hot tip!

I went to get vanilla bean paste based on a tip from @depressionerabaking and also scored vanilla beans! (THANK YOU!!!)

The vanilla beam paste is $27.99 for 10oz (a steal!) smd the beans are $14.99 for 20!

I feel so fancy! Hopefully your local Costco has these too. I went to the Etobicoke location. Happy shopping and even happier baking!

we were inspired by @depressionerabaking for these oatmeal chocolate chip cookies that have NO EGGS, NO FLOUR, NO BUTTER, and NO SUGAR, meaning they are an inexpensive way to nourish your body in the mornings.

my favorite thing about these cookies is that we usually have everything on hand already in the pantry. but to really impress upon you the efficiency of this recipe, here’s the cost breakdown: 👇

one banana → $0.18
a handful of oats → $0.04 to $0.06
a teaspoon of baking powder → $0.03 to $0.05
a dash of salt → $0.02
a handful of chocolate chips → $0.64

this recipe makes 3-4 large cookies so you can make a whole batch for LESS THAN ONE DOLLAR ($0.89 to $0.93). crazy, right???!

peanut and sesame thumbprints w/ hojicha ganache

for cookie party 2024 🍪👯
feat. @depressionerabaking @snax.nguyen @camillawynne @wallysharvest @curlylfb @pricklypearbakehouse @youbutterwerk @yukaw3

I did a lot of baking in 2024 but right now the thing I feel best about is having some excellent friends and community from this app, and seriously levelling up my cookie game in the presence of those friends. Thanks to you all for supporting this page, inspiring me, and being absolute artistes.

I’m getting more and more confident in my ability to create recipes of my own! This cookie was begging to happen during the great cookie spiral of 2024, but me (and my box) had reached max capass. A lot of you have been asking for the recipes lately, so maybe a New Year’s resolution is to get some of them out to you. Feel free to LMK what you wanna see this year, and where and how you wanna see it!!

Cookie Party 2024!

Another year in the books! Another round of deviled eggs devoured!

Let me tell you about all the fantastic treats:

@snax.nguyen made Espresso Marshmallow Puffs (an adaption of a Jam Bake recipe) with an espresso cookie base, a Kahlua chocolate truffle centre, and Kahlua vanilla bean marshmallow. They also made Sailor Moon-coded Campari Grapefruit Shortbread Sandwiches filled with Campari grapefruit curd and topped with candied Campari grapefruit peel!

@bens_onlypans made a STUNNING Peanut Sesame Thumbprint cookie filled with white chocolate hojicha ganache!

@curlylfb made her gorgeous pizzelle, scented with spirit of anise sourced from a pharmacy in Sault Ste. Marie (v witchy)!

@youbutterwerk made a variation of the Candied Peel and Star Anise Sablés in Nature’s Candy, but subbed clove for the star anise and added espresso - so good!

@wallysharvest made a Froot Loop Cookie, a spin-off of @bravetart’s Loft House cookie recipe. She also made @chefthomaskeller’s Oreo recipe, filled with a black sesame white chocolate ganache.

@pricklypearbakehouse made Baci di Dama (half filled with blood orange marmalade, half filled with dark chocolate), as well as @mollybaz’ Brown Butter Pistachio Sablés, infused with fragrant cardamom!

@camillawynne made @allday.cake’s Brandy Butter Truffles and delicious licorice caramels! 🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻

@yukaw3 generously gifted us the whole @isshobakery truffle line-up, despite being unable to attend. Such a treat!

And lastly (but not leastly) I made Peppermint Mocha Mosaic Cookies from @testkitchen!

All the bakers in attendance have one thing in common - a grounded humility that allows us to keep learning and growing in eachother’s presence. All of these friends inspire me as creatives and as people and I so look forward to our gatherings where we can geek out and talk shop! Can’t wait to see how we all evolve in 2025!

This how the A game cookie makers photograph their stuff, so here we are.
Learn from the best!
Looking at you @depressionerabaking @snax.nguyen @bens_onlypans
Although I think the wall behind is supposed to be white…
Rookie mistake.

I am so beyond grateful to everyone who helped me pull off the Nature’s Candy friends & family launch last night!!! @somachocolatemaker & @dc__soma hosted at their incredible factory & we launched our collab bar (my dream!). They are two of the most generous and talented people I have ever met ❤️ my wonderful friend & fellow author @cnutsmith agreed to interview me ❤️ beloved @good_egg_toronto came to sell books ❤️ two of my favorites @paradisegrapevine & @burdockbrewery provided delicious wine & beer ❤️ my beloved spouse @katdandy wrangled our toddler & put her to bed ❤️ and the BAKERS!!!!! I came home from tour 2 days before this party and there was just no way I could pull it off alone. @snax.nguyen @depressionerabaking @bens_onlypans & @kathrynskitchendiaries did me the most incredible solid and helped bake an incredible spread of treats from the book. They are all such talented bakers and one day I will repay them somehow ❤️ and @robinsonbread brought our stollen croissant collab!!! What more could I ask for? It’s a high bar for the next 8 events, but I’m planning on vaulting it. If you’re in Toronto, Montreal, Boston, NYC or Chicago, please come hang! Details at camillawynne.com/workshops ❤️
