Sweet Baby Shower Bites

This past weekend I baked sweet treats for a dear friend's baby shower. My petite desserts were inspired by the color blue in honor of baby boy Ridge. And of course, I threw in something rich and chocolatey for the new mom. Congratulations to Brigette and Daniel on the newest addition to their family!

Bridal Luncheon Dessert Bites

Earlier this year, I baked desserts for one of my best friend's bridal luncheons at Backstreet Cafe in Houston. The sweet bites were a lovely finish to the ladies event that kicked off Ricki's grand wedding weekend. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Hendrix!
