First comes love, then comes dessert


Sunday we launched the new Spring line of Stella and Dot here in Edmonton - a great time had by all - good music, good vibe in a boutique hotel, great company, and of course, fantastic jewellery.  In the back of the room I couldn't help but notice there was a table filled with what looked like upside down lollipops.  En route to the exit, my guest and I stopped and researched it a bit.  It seemed to be some sort of confection to celebrate the launch - something covered in white chocolate and decorated with the signature Stella colours.  Candy, or better still, maybe cake?  As we picked one up, the bottom of one was dark, while the other was vanilla - YES - cake!  It was like a mini cupcake on a stick.  I have to admit, I took more than one, and, when in the safety of my own home, I tried, I loved and I craved more!

Thank goodness I took a business card - Love Inc, a local company specializing in custom dessert tables for all occasions.  Simply brilliant.

Well, what is on the website is the extent of my knowledge to date about Love Inc.  But I can tell you a bit about the cake pops I tried - the chocolate cake was dense, very moist and exceptionally rich - a beautiful, deep chocolate made with top ingredients.  Dipped in a white chocolate and bite size, my only complaint is that I didn't take the whole tray!  The vanilla cake, I think was a walnut cake - it too was exceptional.  Rich flavour and very moist - in my opinion, a nut cake has to be exceptionally moist and this one did not disappoint.



My goal over the coming month is to learn more about the woman and the company that boasts the tag line "first comes love, then comes dessert.:  Why?  Because I am an advocate of local companies, woman entrepreneurs and above all, exceptional product - and this tiny taste checked all the boxes!
