Just so you know…

This is what’s been keeping me so busy for the last week or so. In my effort to bring in a little extra moolah, and satisfy the collective sweet tooth of my workplace, I’ve been busy in production making chocolate covered Oreo cookies for Easter. I’d show you a picture of my kitchen, but, no. Here’s a picture of my production tray with various pieces in the process of being packaged.

And here’s a composite picture of some of the completed packages.

Most of them are done with a bunny mold and packaged with some pastel jelly beans, but I had a request for something not so blatantly Easter-ish, so I made some with pink floral chocolate transfers. They are very cool – actually colored cocoa butter printed on acetate sheets, and the design transfers onto the melted chocolate as it cools. Here’s a closer shot.

Here’s a close-up of one of the bunny packages:yellowchoc-white-bunniesI think I am pretty much done with the production part of this, and just need to make up some labels for the backs and finish the packaging. I’m also individually packaging some of them in cello bags so people can throw them in Easter baskets.

And I really wish I could say that I’m sick of Oreos, but damn they are good!
