summer stuff

The chocolate-cranberry oat bars of my last update are, in fact, for sale at The Muse. Minus the glaze, though – customer feedback said they didn’t need it. I have also done private orders for a healthier version (less sugar, whole-wheat flour), and a peanut butter version.

Another new product: carrot-raisin cookies. These are FAB. Carroty/raisiny/walnuty, with warm spices – ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon. The healthy stuff balances out the typical-cookie sugar content, in my opinion. Besides that, they’re fabulous.

I TRIED, unsuccessfully, to take over as Cupcake Baker when the former cupcake baker at The Muse quit. Although I wasn’t able to work something out with them, I have absolutely perfected my cupcake recipes, so if you want/need any – and you know you do! – call me.

I’ve got a new product in the works that I hope to debut in the next week or two.

There also might be pictures here someday…

choc+oat+cran = choatcran?

I don’t know what to call these, but they’re magnificent. If B. gives me the thumbs-up, then they’ll be for sale at The Muse soon. Even if they don’t end up there, YOU can buy them any time you want! Not sure about the price yet; I’ll do the math and get back to you on that.

Anyway, it’s a chocolate oat bar with dried cranberries and a vanilla glaze drizzled over the top. They’ve been compared to a chocolate granola bar. I am reminded of a brownie, but with a LOT more texture. Try one for yourself and decide!

Oohhh look at this.

Look again.

And one more time for the full effect:

I made these for my friend Jonathan’s birthday party a couple of weeks ago. They’re (or were, I should say) vanilla cupcakes topped with blueberries and a drizzle of vanilla icing. Yes, they tasted as good as they look.

So who are you going to call next time you need birthday (or any-occasion) cupcakes? That’s right…

so about that…

Someday this site will be up and running properly.  As of right now, I (Marilyn, Fresh Crumbs’ owner, operater, and sole employee) am a full-time student with a courseload of 16 credits, in addition to an evening training course to become a nursing assistant, and of course running a business.  So it is a slow process; I am working on it as I have time.  I did add links and pick a (hopefully semi-permanent) theme!

In the meantime, you can become a fan on Facebook, and that is the best way to get FC news, updates, pictures of delicious things, etc.  Just search for Fresh Crumbs.  Do it – you know you want to!

Ohhh and I am going to be selling yumminess at the Lynchburg Community Market beginning some time this spring.  Exact start date and product list TBD – again, fan me on FB for the timeliest updates!

Love you all; thanks for stopping by!

hey there!
