           Hello & Happy Sunday!!         As a southern native, fudge was always a thing. They sold it at bakeries, people brought it to gatherings etc. However, I hate to say it, but today fudge just isn’t something you much about anymore lol. Perhaps because as a whole we’re gravitating towards healthier dessert options, but at any rate I was wondering…    Can you make a...

                        Hello & Happy Wednesday!!               Christmas is coming in just a few days, so we’re whipping up all the holiday classics!

                      Hello & Happy Saturday!!     Although I love to cook, there was once a time that I hated working with yeast. It’s very temperamental and truly holds the cards to how any bread/cinnamon roll recipe is going to turn out. If the yeast is old, fail. If the yeast is exposed to salt too early, fail. If the yeast has too much sugar, fail. If the yeast is...

                Hello & Happy Friday!!             This recipe needs no introduction, because everyone loves a chocolate covered pretzel!

                    Hello & Happy Saturday!!               One of my food obsessions this past year? Sheet cakes! Typically layer cakes are more tedious and detailed, and I love a fuss free cake that can be thrown together in minutes. Once I found the perfect balance for a vegan sheet cake, we produced countless variations for every flavor preference and...

                        Hello & Happy Friday!!               Christmas is almost here, so I’ve been on the move to create a few last minute holiday concepts that pack flavor and are hassle free!

        Hello & Happy Thursday!!               If there is one dessert I’m forever enamored with, it’s Apple Pie. It’s nostalgic, packed with apples and the majority of the sugar can be derived from the fruit which is always my preference. I think a homemade apple pie was one of the first concepts I tried ages ago while entertaining guests. I of course tried to go all...

                      Hello & Happy Friday!!             There are many things going on behind the scenes at EDS the last few weeks.

However, sometimes I procrastinate, because there are countless...

No matter what they say, you can never have too many cookie recipes, especially when they are this easy! Typically with cookies you have to beat butter and sugar together, make a flax egg and so on.  ...

                    Hello & Happy Friday!!           When it comes to nostalgic eats, I love a good Rice Krispie Treat. There is something about it that just takes you back to childhood and bonus, they are so easy to make! While a classic marshmallow treat is always a win, I love to play around with the flavors and get creative.    When it comes to fall,...

Once I find a recipe that works I’m off to thinking of a variety of flavors you can create. Needless to say, I tested a few pretzel recipes, and fell back in love with this classic...

                      Hello & Happy Friday!!             While I stick to my everyday avocado toast, I love a good muffin or cinnamon roll for a weekend brunch!

While summer foods are my favorite, I love all things pumpkin and apple cider!   In recent years pumpkin has...

      Hello & Happy Saturday!!   Throughout my childhood we always had muffins. While they weren’t homemade, the whole concept of a muffin remains nostalgic for me. A lot of times when you’re working with fruit in a baked good, you run the risk of over saturating the batter and you can be left with just a brick of mush. When it comes to vegan baking and substituting an egg for banana, you run the risk even...

                    Hello & Happy Wednesday!!           I’ve been craving pumpkin concepts already and going thru the list of the recipes we don’t have. One of them was, a chocolate chip cookie! Typically a pumpkin cookie made with real pumpkin will turn into one that’s more cake like. Perhaps it’s from adding the additional moisture of puree...

                  I know what you’re thinking, another pumpkin bread recipe? However, as someone who is obsessed with pumpkin long before it exploded, I love a good pumpkin bread and luckily I’ve tried tons!   One of the first companies to carry a good pumpkin bread was actually Starbucks. Yes it’s processed, pre-package, not fresh, packed with the lord knows what, but it was just.. so...

                      Hello & Happy Monday!!           Since I’m one of those people who always has an avocado on hand, I typically always have one that’s on its way out too lol. That being said, I’m always looking for new ways to salvage them as I hate wasting. One of my favorite things to do is throw them in cookies or brownies, but I had yet...

                        Hello & Happy Saturday!!           Every week I love to do a sheet cake! With summer coming to a close I knew I had to do a pineapple cake before it’s just too late. I honestly don’t us pineapple enough in recipes. However, these pineapple cupcakes and muffins are still some of my favorite recipes today. That says a lot of of...

                          Hello & Happy Thursday!!             Although the matcha craze has faded out, I still love throwing it into some of my favorite recipes as I just crave the flavor profile.

                                When it comes to the weekends I love to whip up an effortless brunch concept. One of the easiest recipes is scones! Long before exploring scones I thought even the name sounded like it was involved, tedious, and just not worth my time. However, scones are really seamless and the flavor options, endless!    We’ve done a few...

                            Hello & Happy Wednesday!!               When it comes to summer desserts, I’m all about the parfaits. Whether it be that they are typically fruit forward, fun to make or just aesthetically gorgeous, they are one of my favorite concepts. Parfaits can feature everything from granola to pudding or my...

                            Hello & Happy Sunday!!             Since the start of 2020 I’ve been making my way through my food bucket list and with the 4th of July weekend, I knew there was a concept I had pushing off, vegan Funnel Cake!   Whether it’s because its a dessert, it’s fried, indulgent, or far from anything I...

                    Hello & Happy Wednesday!!           When thinking of the next effortless summer treat, my mind wandered towards Rice Krispy Treats. I’m not sure what it is.

                        Hello & Happy Wednesday!!             Since quarantining, we’ve been all about the bread! We’ve done everything from countless pretzel recipes to bagels and more.

                      Hello & Happy Thursday!!         Lately we’ve been expanding each recipe category and cupcakes were on my list! I don’t do a lot of cupcakes as I like to save them for special occasions and honestly, I’m not the best at icing lol.    During undergrad at NYU there was perhaps only 1 workshop where we focused on icing, and...

      Hello & Happy Wednesday!!   If there is one type of cookie that always gets a bad wrap, it’s oatmeal! However, you can make a fab oatmeal cookie that’s sans flour and low sugar! Since our babe is arriving in just a few days, I’ve been on the search for the most effortless recipes from sweet to savory, and an oatmeal cookie was just a must!!   In my early vegan days I would have a bowl of...

                Hello & Happy Tuesday!!             Lately we’re expanding the recipes via EDS to offer an array of everything. Something we were falling short of, was some solid cookie recipes! I personally have a few go to’s in my routine, but there are so many varieties to tap into, like S’mores cookies! I’m not sure what it is, but something...

                      Hello & Happy Friday!!           Going into the weekend, it’s always a good time for a dessert concept and these vegan vanilla sprinkle cupcakes seemed like a must! Believe it or not, I don’t do a lot of cupcakes on EDS. I find them a lil more on the tedious side, you have to be familiar with icing and the list goes on. However,...

                      Hello & Happy Monday!!             I don’t typically feature cookies on a Monday, but these were just too good and I couldn’t wait to share.

                        Hello & Happy Thursday!!         If there is one cookie that remains to be iconic, it’s the oatmeal raisin cookie.
