Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
It's been a lot
of fun following along as Kelli from Lovescool starts her own bakery. In a particularly detailed look into the mechanics of
creating hundreds of champagne brownies for her first shipment, she reports that selecting brownies as her first
product was a challenge; mostly because it's hard to tell from the surface if your pan is done. "I would advise
people to start with a nice and simple product like cookies where you can immediately tell if they are done or
not," she says.
It made me think about the dream both I and practically everyone I know shares somewhere deep inside: that I should open a bakery/restaurant/cafe someday. "This is so wonderful, you should sell it!" exclaim your friends. "Why don't you open a ___ shop?" everyone at work asks you.
But what is it? What recipe have you perfected so assiduously that it would be the obvious choice if you were to open a bakery? For me, it changes from season to season, but my friend Larissa and I have lately been dreaming about opening a cupcake bakery and selling our products at our favorite local farmer's market. What about you?

my friend actually offered me twenty bucks to make him a batch! this to me was the ultimate of compliments seeing as i want to open a restaurant/lounge when i finish school and have had the napkins picked out since seventh grade.lol. the fudge would be great as a bar snack for those waiting for a table.
