This recipe is perfect for using up end of season fruit that you may have in abundance. It works great with any kind of melon, and you can spike it up with your favorite tipple, or sparkling lemonade. It's as delicious as it is easy to make, and perfect for those lazy summer soirees! ;)

This party would be perfect for any birthday celebration (Who wouldn't want a table filled with frozen treats for their birthday?!) or indeed a super sweet back to school celebration! A fun and cool way (no pun..) to ease kids into their scholastic transitions - Kinda like the lollipops we used to get after a trip to the dentist?! Now I'm just showing my age....anyways, check out the fabulousness below as styled by Dina using Bird's Party NEW Ice Cream Parlor Printables !

Yes, because although some schools have started, and we're already thinking "Halloween"; we still have a few days of sunshine goodness to savor, and some glorious end of season produce.  And this summery recipe is very easy and quick to make, so perfect if you have last minute entertaining on the cards. But is also a tasty and healthy after school snack! ;)

This is the last post of Wedding series for HGTV , and we're ending on a super sweet note! These pretty truffles are super yummy but so easy to make - as with anything I bake ;) Their "bejeweled" effect is achieved by rolling the truffles in pink sugar pearls.

So you want to cover a cake in fondant. Now what? Well, it might not be as scary as you might think. After all, it's just cake and sugar - not brain surgery ;)  There are certainly mixed feelings when it comes to fondant. I am not sure if this is because people find it difficult to use, it does not look as "yummy" as fluffy buttercream, it tastes funny, or whatever. In my humble opinion, there will always be a place for fondant. Maybe not for every event or design, but it is certainly worth giving a try. It may take practice to handle efficiently, but it yields beautiful, smooth results - even producing designs that cannot be achieved with any other medium.

Loving the fun, handmade not to mention super adorable details of this Strawberry Shortcake Birthday Party by my friend Cheryl from Sew Can Do! Cheryl used our Strawberry Party Printable to embellish the desserts table for her little sweetie, Serena's 03rd birthday! Check out all the fab details as told by Cheryl below: 

You probably have seen the cute tea candles I used in the latest wedding story for HGTV here. So today I thought I'd share the tutorial step-by-step on how I made those. I used melt-and-pour wax, which makes for a super simple process, and anyone can do it (NOT for kids though, as it involves hot wax!)
