April’s Treat of the Month Club
Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy. ~ Gretta Brooker Palmer
Today, Lisa and I met up with the members of our Treat of the Month Club to dole out this month’s delights. We had fun creating each special package and greeting all the lovely members who met us out in the sunshine on this beautiful spring day.
Although we went home empty-handed, our hearts were pretty full. We’re already working on restocking our freezers with special treats for May, and we can’t wait to see how this little project grows and evolves over the coming months.
For April’s instalment, each person received a reusable container filled with gluten-free and vegan treats:
- Lemon Almond Biscotti dipped in Chocolate Fondue from Doug McNish’s Eat Raw, Eat Well
- Chocolate Orange Truffle rolled in coconut and goji berries (developed for the raw dessert class that Lisa will be teaching for Meghan Telpner—you can sign up here!)
- Mocha Maca Truffle rolled in cacao nibs (also developed for Lisa’s raw dessert class)
- Flourless Almond Cookies with chocolate chips and cacao nibs (a test for a dessert eBook project I’m working on)
- Hazelnut Brownies with Maple Chocolate Ganache (another test for the dessert eBook)
- Sprouted Buckwheat Bites (lucky for all you non-members, I posted this recipe last week)
If you’d like to join us for May the deadline to sign up is April 30th at midnight. You can sign up for any or all of the months between May and December (2012) using the link below.
Once you join the club, we’ll clarify with you the months you’d like to participate and any dietary restrictions you may have.
I love what you two are doing! Love it!
Thank you, JL!
Brava to you and Lisa! I’m not surprised the treats are gorgeous and I know they are divine. I am just thrilled for you and your lucky clients!!
Thank you, Fran! Lisa and I are having a lot of fun with it.
I haven’t tried the almond cookies yet, but everything has been so delicious. The buckwheat bite was my absolute favourite. I could eat those everyday! And the chocolate orange truffle is so amazing that I am only letting myself nibble away at it to make it last longer
So glad I signed up!
Thank you so much for your feedback, Nancy! I’m so happy you’re enjoying the treats. Hope to see you at the end of May for the next round
