Christmas Desserts

Christmas is one of my favourite times of year. I love listening to (and singing) Christmas music, I love driving around and seeing homes lite up with beautiful lights and decorations and of course I LOVE all the Christmas baking I get to do. This year Sweet Occasions is offering some delicious Christmas desserts to help make your Christmas Season a little Sweet-er.

Gift Giving
If you are looking for a gift for a chocolate lover, we have just what you are looking for. Instead of giving an ordinary box of chocolates, give a box our Sweet Obsession Brownies. This is a one pound box of moist, fudgey brownies. Flavours include: Double chocolate fudge, Chocolate walnut, Chocolate Mint, Chocolate Cherry and Chocolate Peanut Butter.

Holiday Entertaining
Whether you are hosting a Christmas party or just want to be prepared for unexpected visits, Sweet Occasions has you covered with a platter of assorted Christmas cookies. All cookies are delivered fresh and can be put in the freezer, or right on your table. Each platter contains 2 1/2 dozen delicious Christmas Cookies. Cookies include: Peanut Butter Munchies, Cranberry Raspberry Pinwheels, Ginger Crinkles, Chocolate Cherry Blossoms, Maple Shortbread sandwich cookies, and Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Bark.

Christmas Morning
Wake up the house with the amazing scent of our Christmas Butterscotch Buns floating through your home. This is a true "You Bake" dessert. These wonderful sticky buns come in a disposable bundt pan. Simply place them in the freezer until the night before you want to serve them. Take them out of the freezer before you turn out the lights and let them sit on the counter overnight. In the morning they will be ready to bake. In 30 minutes you will have fresh, sweet and sticky Christmas Butterscotch buns to pull out of the oven and serve to your loved ones...and boy will they love you for it!
