Food Blog Forum and Something Brand New and Bright Blue

This post doesn’t involve baking from this weekend
but there’s something pretty sweet at the end I think you’ll like.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Okay, so I’ve been out of town for the last two weekends. First, Chicago for the Home and Housewares Show

IMG_9497

and last weekend somewhere a little bit warmer.

I was in sunny Florida for a weekend conference full of learning and sharing with friends – and a bunch of food and fun thrown in.

Food Blog Forum Orlando. Put on by Jaden Hair of Steamy Kitchen, Todd & Diane of White On Rice Couple, Julie Deily of The Little Kitchen and Dawn Viola.

And sponsored by Disney, Kitchenaid, OXO, Land O’ Lakes, Whole Foods, Le Creuset and more.

The meeting was held at Walt Disney World and it was amazing. So well done. Julie from the Little Kitchen knows how to put together a great event. I was there with a bunch of great speakers. (See the whole group here) Alison Lewis (Ingredients, Inc.) and I spoke at round table discussions on writing a cookbook. I really enjoyed the round table set up because we were able to talk one-on-one with people and that’s much more my speed. I don’t think I’d be very good at getting up in front of a big room of people and talking. There would be a lot of umms and likes and pauses I’m sure.

On the evening before the meeting, we had a beautiful outdoor reception at the Grand Floridian. My sweet friend Jenny (Picky Palate) and I met some great girls. Nikki (Pennies on a Platter), Krissy (Krissy’s Creations), Julie (Table for Two) and Rachel (The Fabulous Foodie). Hi girls. Thanks for making Magic Kingdom such a blast!

We hit up a few rides and went on a search for Dole Whip and churros before the park closed. It was my first time trying either. So yum! Thanks for sharing these phone pics girls.

We spent all day Saturday at Epcot where the meeting was held.

It was definitely a special place to have a meeting. Not only were there great speakers, yummy treats, amazing prizes, like stand mixers and refrigerators, Le creusets and more but when we were done, we had a huge world to explore.

IMG_9445

If only I could have seen it all. I’ve never been to Epcot. I had no idea how ginormous this park was. Actually, I still don’t know how big it is. But that’s okay because what I did see was perfect.

We had an incredible lunch extravaganza prepared by Disney chefs from the parks and hotels.

I focused on dessert of course.

Lunch gave us all more time to talk.

Here’s Lauren’s Latest, Julie, Krissy and Jenny.

And I finally finally met Elise from Simply Recipes. Yay! Hope we can chat more next time.

Alison and Jenny. Love you guys.

And sweet, sweet Julie. Again, great job on pulling this event together.

On Sunday we had a brunch hosted by Whole Foods. Incredible food means the cameras come out.

IMG_9649

See what I mean. That’s Dawn in the back, Julie and Jenny, and then Lindsey (Love and Olive Oil) in the front.

This might be one of my favorite pics from the weekend. It just makes me giggle at how we all do the same thing as bloggers. It’s almost uncontrollable when you have a camera in your hand.

But in our defense, the flowers were pretty cheery.

I enjoyed this weekend so much.

Hi Emily (Sage Recipes) and Kiran (Kirantarun)! It was nice meeting you both. Hope to see you again. And you too Droolius and Simply Southern Baking.

Thanks for a weekend of great memories with old friends and new!

So now the fun part.

I’m having an amazing giveaway today.

If you read last week’s post, you may remember some of the new products I talked about from the Home and Housewares Show in Chicago. One of them was this Kitchenaid mixer in Crystal Blue, the brand new color from the Catalina Collection that I fell in love with.

catalina-collection

Well, I met some of the folks from Kitchenaid in Chicago for the first time and and then coincidentally, we met again in Orlando the very next weekend as they were one of the sponsors of Food Blog Forum. It was a surprise to see them two weeks in a row. We talked about how much I loved the brand new color they debuted in Chicago and we thought it would be a fun giveaway here on bakerella.com.

  37. Warm Chocolate chunk brownie with icecream…yum……

  38. Key Lime Pie…hands down :)

  39. Oh my.. I love desserts.. but if I had to pick just one it would be a slice of moist chocolate cake with a scoop of ice cream!

  40. I am a major sweet tooth, so it’s hard to narrow it down. I think I would have to go with traditional white cake, white icing birthday cake…with lots of frosting roses.

  41. It would be hard to give up my moist chocolate chip cookies, the array amount of milk chocolate and sugary candy I consume and fruit pies but if I could only eat only one kind of dessert for the rest of my life, I would LOVE plain old cheesecake! I love a very dense but moist cheesecake with a graham cracker crust only on the bottom of the cheesecake.

  42. Oooo….this is tough. Too many great yummies to choose from. I would have to choose a gooey chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Nothing compares! Yum yum yum!!!

  43. I recently found the most amazing Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe (I am obsessed with perfecting the choc. Chip cookie!) that I make with Irish butter and Swiss chocolate chunks. This is my dessert of choice forever :-)

  44. Boston Creme in any form…cake, donut, cupcake.

  45. Love something as easy as choc chip cookies – it is comfort food to me and always fun to make with my two little monsters.

  46. Chocolate Chip cannolis! Yum, yum, yum!! The crunch of the shell, the sweet cream filling, and the chocolate chips add that chocolate crunch that I need everyday! Mmmmm, my mouth is watering!

  47. A warm, dark chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream & caramel sauce. Mmmmm.

  48. It was so great to meet you at the conference! Love your re-cap of the weekend!

    If I could eat one dessert for the rest of my life I would pick Jack Daniels bread pudding

  49. Wow! This is tough! But I would have to choose chocolate chip cookies!

  50. Hmm… That’s a toughy
    I’m hooked on chubby hubby truffles
    Anything with peanut butter and a salty sweet combo I’m set! :)

  51. I would definetly pick butter pecan ice cream. It reminds me of my childhood and how my mom would take me to the ice cream shop, it made me so happy and it still does.

  52. My mother’s Finnish Pulla!

  53. Sweet potato casserole. I’ll always go to my comfort foods!

  54. If I had to choose just one thing…it would probably have to be cannoli with dark chocolate chips…I can eat those all day everyday..heck I’ll just eat the filling if I have to..

  55. I’d have to go with chocolate chip cookies!

  56. Tough question….maybe a brownie sundae? That way I could have a good chocolatey brownie with rocky road ice cream and lots of toppings. It is sort of like a 2-for-1 deal :).

  57. Chocolate!!! I just love most everything chocolate, brownies, cookies, cakes, candy…

  58. One dessert – lava cake…. Its the best of two worlds: chocolate cake with melted chocolate inside! You just can’t go wrong with chocolate!

  59. Mine would be peach kuchen, but only if it was the kind my grandmother used to make me. i wish she would have used a recipe so i could make it now.

  60. Hmmmm… that would be a TOUGH one as I am such a Chocoholic… Probably 7 layer Chocolate cake! :)

  61. Gosh, that’s tough. I think I would have to go with a classic chocolate chip cookie. Gotta have my chocolate, but not *too* much…

  62. Mine would be Reese’s peanut butter cups!!! Can’t resist it! Hope I win the cool kitchen aid! Thanks for giving us the chance! :)

  63. I had to think about this, because I love desserts. But if I had to choose only one, it would be my mother’s chocolate cream pie. It’s so luscious and velvety, and of course, loaded with chocolate flavor.

  64. chocolate mousse!

  65. What a fabulous giveaway.
    Thank you for giving me the opportunity to participate!

    I would eat ice-cream for the rest of my life. Narrowing it down, it would have to be either vanilla with fudge crackles, or peanut butter chocolate ice-cream.

  66. Neopolitan ice cream

  67. I’d go with a frosted sugar cookie for sure! Delicious!

  68. Ooooo….this is tough. So many great yummies out there. I would have to say that a nice gooey chocolate cake with chocolate icing would suffice and be something I’d never grow tired of. Yum yum yum!

  69. Profiteroles! I just love it.

  70. Key Lime cheesecake would be my favorite! I love the tartness!

  71. Brownie Sundae, hands down.
    Rich chocolate brownie, topped with vanilla ice cream, homemade chocolate sauce, and whipped cream. Yumm!

  72. If I had to choose one dessert it would be something with marshmallows! I love smores bars!!! Please please draw me!!

  73. Definitely Creme Brulee – hands down!

  74. I would have to say… Chocolate Chip Cookies with walnuts! My mouth is watering just thinking about them!!!!

  75. That is tough but I would have to say mint chocolate chip ice cream with cookie dough. Childhood favorite =)

  76. My favorite dessert is hands down…creme brulee! YUM!

  77. As much as I love cake and pie, I’d settle for a double chocolate chip cookie with walnuts as my single dessert of choice.

  78. I think it would have to be a plain vanilla cupcake. I love cake, but this is so much cuter! Plus, you can eat vanilla with anything. Really, it’s perfect <3

  79. Love the Black tie mousse @ Olive Garden!

  80. One sweet!? Sounds like a horrific nightmare! I guess if I had to choose I would say cookie dough ice cream with Oreo crumbles and hot fudge. At least then I would still be getting some cookie dough and Oreo tastiness hidden inside the ice cream!!

  81. I would choose raspberry custard pie!

  82. Woohoo! That blue is my favorite color! Okay, so I sincerely hope I never have to only choose one dessert for the rest of my life, but if forced to, it would be almond cake. Love it so much, it was my wedding cake. Just in case you were wondering a close second would be coconut cake. Yum!

  83. If I could only pick one it would definitely have to pick red velvet cake with cream cheese icing with pecans sprinkled on top. That is one of the best desserts ever The chocolatey taste paired with the cream cheese is totally awesome!

  84. I would eat pumpkin pie with whipped cream! It’s not that I absolutely love pumpkin pie, but when I’m eating it I just can’t stop! :)

  85. If I had to eat only one type of dessert for the rest of my life, hands down, it would be Creme Brulee. That stuff is amazing! My husband and I had it for the first time on our honeymoon…at Disney World!

  86. What fun!! Living here in So Cal, we go to Disneyland often. The churro and Dole whip are iconic; I’m so glad you were able to try! Those are my two favs!
    As for my dessert for life? Vanilla bean gelato, hands down!

  87. You have one of the coolest jobs/ If I could only have one sweet for the rest of my life it would have to be the banana spring rolls at PF Chang’s. One of the most delicious things I have ever tasted.

  88. my grandma’s sugar cookies… with icing of course!

  89. chocolate cupcakes with ganache

  90. If I had to chose one dessert only it would be definitely something with chocolate in it. I chose a creamy chocolate & cream cheese flan!

  91. Wow, what a question! I’d say it’s a tossup between chocolate chocolate chip cheesecake and chocolate cupcake bites. :)

  92. I think maybe yellow cake with raspberry jam and chocolate buttercream. And toasted almonds on top. Yeah, that sounds awesome.

  93. Creme brûlée. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

  94. I would definately choose New York style cheesecake….yum yum yum!!!

  95. I’m keeping it simple and classic – Oreos. I have yet to meet a person who doesn’t smile when Oreos are mentioned – they’re just classic!

  96. tough question…. dark chocolate chunk cookies! or maybe just the dark chocolate chunks!

  97. If I could only have one sweet for the rest of my life, it would definitely be a peanut butter cookie. Reminds me of my grandma (Gram) who made the most amazing peanut butter cookies and butter tarts! Perfect with a cup of tea after the kids are in bed :)

  98. Some good old fashioned ice cream…any kind will do, but if I had to choose, I’d say peanut butter chocolate!

  99. i would have chocolate chip brownies :)

  100. I would have to pick cheesecake, just plain old cheesecake. Maybe with fresh strawberries. Yes, definitely with fresh strawberries!

  101. I would eat a vanilla cupcake iced with delicious buttercream frosting with pink sprinkles on it every day — yum!!!!!!!!

  102. If I could eat one dessert for the rest of my life it would be the classic Molten Lava Cake. Nothing warms the soul, for me, more than a heavenly chocolate cake oozing with a warm chocolaty center and some homemade vanilla ice cream along the side. YUM!

  103. Lemon Bars!!! I looooove a good lemon bar that is the perfect combo of sweet, tart, and velvety smooth on top of a buttery crust and topped with powdered sugar that melts as soon as it touches your lips! Oh gosh…I may have to make some today! :)

  104. Dark chocolate cupcake with dark chocolate truffle center and chocolate whipped frosting. Most expensive cupcakes I have ever made, and the most delish! One bite, and I could rub them all over my body. Mmmmmmmmmmm!

  105. I’d go with chocolate cake. Runner-up: lemon bars.

    What a great giveaway!

  106. Looks like you had such a fabulous time while at Disney!!! I absolutely love Lemon Poppyseed loaf or muffins. So good with a hot cup of coffee!!!

  107. I would choose peanut butter pie.

  108. Tough question. I’m torn between my grandmother’s blind date cake and the amazing Sacher torte from Vienna…

  109. I could eat Creme Brulee forever. I would weigh a ton, but I would be very happy!

  110. I make these Italian cookies called gennets every Christmas with my grandmother. They are delicious and filled with memories, so I would have to pick those!

  111. I would eat smores for the rest of my life…because they are smores and they are the most delicious combo of 3 ingredients.

  112. what a tough question….but i think if i had to choose one and only one dessert to have for a lifetime it would most definitely have to be my pumpkin cheesecake that i make. I could eat this every single day if i could. it is so creamy and spicy and just right!!!

  113. Bite size cherry cheese cakes. Yummy. Made with mini nilla wafers

  114. It will classic cheesecake but with the oreo crust and strawberrys…. OMG yuumm

  115. Not easy to choose…! I guess it would be dark chocolate truffles.

  116. One kind of dessert?! I’d have to choose something I discovered while living in Arizona. It’s called a pizookie. Basically you have your warm cookie dough baking in a small pie/pizza dish. Take it out just before its done so the edges are nice and crispy but the center is still gooey. Add the vanilla ice cream right on top (while the cookie is super hot still) and viola! The best dessert you can ask for. Simple, comforting, and delicious.

  117. I would have to choose red velvet cake or cupcake. Love being part of all your trips… Thanks for sharing with us on your blog.

  118. Goey fudgy brownies!!

  119. I would eat cake; red velvet, coconut or chocolate of some sort. Cake for me & always better w/good ol’ ice cream. mmmmm
    :)

  120. Brownies! The basic fudgy ones from my Hershey’s cookbook. So delicious.

  121. Vegan carrot cake! I’m not even vegan but for some reason vegan carrot cake is more moist and perfect than the original. Yummy!

  122. hhmmmmm….if i could only have one sweet/dessert for the rest of my life, i would probably choose the banana cream pie cupcakes i made last week. They were vanilla cupcakes filled with pastry cream and slices of fresh banana and topped with fresh vanilla whipped cream. Yummy!
    P.S. Love the color of the new kitchenaid stand mixer!

  123. Cream Brulee with a hardened brown sugar glaze. Nothing says dessert to me like a smooth cream brulee. (You hang out with some beautiful friends!)

  124. Lemon curd swirled cheesecake – oh my!

  125. It would have to be chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream!

  126. I would have to chose the chocolate chip cookie recipe that has been in my family for 50+ years: loaded with chocolate chips, oatmeal and shredded coconut, it’s chewy goodness makes me happy!

  127. Cheesecake! I could eat it anytime. I prefer plain, but I also like experimenting with so many flavors! Pumpkin is a favorite!

  128. It would have to be Red velvet cheesecake, my two most favorite puddings in one delicious hit!

  129. I like so many things, but my favorite flavor is lemon-anything lemon, cookies, cake, pie, tarts, etc. The best would be lemon tart or cake or………

  130. If I could only choose one… Ben and Jerry’s Half Baked ice cream! It’s like 3 desserts in one!

  131. I would choose apple pie because it has so many wonderful components and a little bit good for you!!

  132. My grandma made these bar cookies that she called Incredible Edibles. They’re kind of like homemade peanut butter cups. But between the dark chocolate, peanut butter, and nostalgia, these would definitely be the dessert I would choose to eat for the rest of my life.

  133. Banana cake with cream cheese frosting!

  134. I LOVE the new color on the Kitchenaid mixer!
    My favorite dessert has to be ice cream (a little of each, vanilla and chocolate) with homemade hot fudge from the old “Joy of Chocolate” cookbook.
    Thanks for being such an inspiration!

  135. Chocolate Cake !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  136. Birthday cake ice cream. It combines everything I love: vanilla ice cream, cake, jimmies, icing. I mean, yum!

  137. Warm crumb-top apple pie with French vanilla ice cream resting oh-so tenderly on the top. I would miss black walnut brownies and pecan pie, but that melting ice cream on the warm pie would make it all worthwhile. :) simple and so good!

  138. I think I could eat yellow cake with chocolate frosting everyday till the end of time and not get tired of it.

  139. If I had to eat dessert for the rest of my life it’ll be my very own cheesecake with strawberries and strawberry and orange glaze toppings. Yum!

    Hope I win that mixer, my fave color! :)

  140. I would choose the most creamy and delicious ice cream, with sprinkles. :)

  141. Coconut cake! I will never tire of that yummy treat!

  142. If I could only choose one, it would be snickerdoodle cookies for sure …. I couldn’t imagine getting tired of them.

    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  143. mmmm – cheesecake

  144. Oh if I could eat only one dessert for the rest of my life it would have to be fresh strawberry shortcake. I love summer time when the berries are ripe and juicy. I grew up with my Mom’s homemade biscuit shortcake as the base…warm out of the oven, covered with those sweet, juicy berries, then just a sprinkle of sugar and milk…YUM-O!!! Can’t wait for berry season. I freeze some for winter time just to feed my “need” :) By the way, if I win this mixer, I’m giving it to my great-niece who is getting married and desperately wants one! Plus this new color just happens to be her wedding colors. PLEASE, OH PLEASE! I want to surprise her and add to her special day. Thanks so much!

  145. Coconut cake with seven minute icing, fresh grated coconut and lemon curd filling

  146. Definitely a dark chocolate cake with a rich ganache frosting :)

  147. just bought a new house and this would be a perfect housewarming gift!! vanilla cupcake with lots of vanilla buttercream and sprinkles!

  148. I think this is one of the hardest things to answer! I have a huge sweet tooth so only picking one thing is incredibly hard. Right now my number one love would have to be key lime pie. I love that it’s tangy and sweet and creamy all at the same time and if I’m in the mood for chocolate I can always make it with a chocolate gram cracker crust

  149. lemon meringue pie is my favorite

  150. It’s a toss-up between peanut butter cookies and classic sugar cookies (flavored with vanilla, not lemon). I’m leaning toward the sugar cookies — easier to adjust to the changing seasons!

  151. d.a.r.k. chocolate(period)

  152. Hmmm, that’s a tough question! I love me some sweets… But I would definitely have to go with brownies. Simple, chocolate, chewy, corner piece, no-nut brownies! :)

    I’ve always wanted a KitchenAid mixer…what a great present! And I LOVE that color! :)

  153. One dessert only is kinda tough! I’m going to see a creamy chocolate & cream cheese flan. With more chocolate sauce on top. Love chocolate!!! Hope I’m the winner!!!

  154. I would definitely chose cheesecake, any kind really, but I really enjoy anything with Oreos!

  155. If I could only have one..(and what a sad day that would be) it would have to be dark chocolate brownies with chocolate chunks. The new mixer colors are great. My boring old white one is on it’s last leg. I will def consider one of these fun new choices.

  156. I could eat carrot cake for every meal, yummm!

  157. Has to be snickerdoodle cookies….childhood favorite that is now my adulthood favorite!

  158. Chocolate sheet cake. With nuts.

  159. If I could only eat one dessert for the rest of my life, it would be my mom’s brownies. Nothing fancy – but there’s something so good about them that I can’t replicate!

  160. Thanks for the trip ‘tour’! I’d have to pick an ice-cream…something like a gold medal ribbon.

  161. Oatmeal Cherry cookie, I could eat those everyday!

  162. I would love to have neopolitan ice cream. : )

  163. I love chocolate cake! So, a Chocolate Cupcake ~ that’s so moist you have to eat it with a fork! The Cupcake part for portion control! My KitchenAid is on it’s last leg btw :)

  164. It would definitely be cheesecake with a strawberry topping.

  165. It would have to be caramel brownies. Yum!

  166. Anything with fruit — most favorite would be apple crisp

  167. My Mom’s chocolate rice krispie treats.

  168. If I could only have one dessert for the rest of my life I think I would have to pick Pear Brown Betty. Warm, a little drizzle of carmel and a giant spoonful of real whipped cream. Yum.

  169. Definitely my sister’s cookies. She has a recipe for a very moist pan type cookie. No chips. Lots of vanilla flavor. So hard to describe. I call them “Favorite Cookies”. Simply the best thing ever!

  170. That is hard!
    Fudge Brownies.
    But only if I have to!

  171. Godiva milk chocolate truffle with cream filling and the mini chocolate chips.

  172. Such a tough question, but I would have to go with coconut cream pie. (My alternate would be chocolate chip cookies – so simple, yet so perfect).

  173. Definitely chocolate chip cookies. They are classic perfection, and they never get old!

  174. Chocolate chip cookies, hands down. ;)

  175. If I could only eat one dessert for the rest of my life Is such a hard thing to pick. I am a sweets junkie and it’s like trying to pick which child is your favourite. But seeing as I have to pick I think I would be happy eating Ben and jerry’s chunky monkey ice cream. Banana, chocolate and nuts. Yum yum drool!

  176. If I could only have one sweet forever, it would have to be roskis! They are an Italian cookie that my moms family has been making forever! They have an almost pastry dough filled with pineapple preserves and nuts, unbelievably delicious! If you don’t get to them fast enough, they are gone!

  177. I’d have brownies!!! I could live off them. Any kind, with nuts, without, flavored with mint or caramel, chocolate or any kind of chips, frosting or plain. I love!

  178. If I had to choose just one, it would definitely be cheesecake. If I had to get even more specific, I think it would be New York Cheesecake.

    LOVE the blue!

  179. I would eat red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting! Yum!! Blue is my favorite color, I’d love to add this to my kitchen!

  180. I would eat Banana Foster Cake!! Oh my goodness…so sweet and gooey!!! You haven’t lived until you have some!!!

  181. So much more fun that my white one!

  182. Vanilla ice cream topped with gorgeous fresh red raspberries!

  183. For sure Chocolate Cake.

  184. Vanilla bean creme brulee. So yummy, I could eat it every day!

  185. Lemon cake pops rock!!!

  186. Hands down……Mocha Chip Ice Cream. I could eat it ’till the cows come home. :)

  187. That is a tough question… probably would have to be sugar cookies with home made frosting.

  188. Chocolate brownies! Yummy…as long as I could top them with ice cream!

  189. Warm chocolate chip cookies….I couldn’t go the rest of my life without them, so they’d HAVE to be my choice!!!

  190. Oh this is way too hard! So I’ll go with a dark, moist chocolate cake (or cupcake) with a pink marshmallow fluff frosting. After that all bets are off. We’re talking tiramisu, Creme brûlée, apricot Frangipane bars, cheesecake…….

  191. Screwball cake with peanutbutter frosting. To die for!

  192. Wow only one dessert? Have to go with ice cream. There’s a brand here with an amazing raspberry ripple flavour – it’s cool and creamy and then that little shock of raspberry running through it is so bright and crisp.

  193. Good ol’ Apple Pie. Classic. <3

  194. Oh my…just one?? hmmm…I’d have to go with pumpkin pie

  195. Chocolare brownies with a scoop of vanilla ce cream…..yumminess!!

  196. I would have to choose peanut butter pie!

  197. Tiramisu

  198. My favorite desserts come in cupcake form…and I love anything vegan… so I think I’d have to go with a vegan chocolate cupcake with peanut butter frosting. What a great prize – thank you!!

  199. Big, chewy chocolate chip cookies. :)

  200. I think I’d have to pick the creme brulee from Iron Bridge in Maryland. Not only is the creme brulee itself perfect, there is a rich, creamy, fudgy chocolate layer underneath. Heaven.
