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.

  1. If I had to pick just one dessert it would be a white cake with buttercream frosting topped with coconut. Just like the one my friend Ginger makes me for my birthday. And not only for how yummy it is but for the memories it makes. ;) thanks Bakerella!!

  2. …it would be mint chocolate cake!!!! my ONE TRUE LOVE!!! i can live another lifetime just eating it!! yumminess!!

  3. If I had to pick only one dessert I could eat forever, it would have to be panna cotta with raspberry coulis. The smooth sweet vanilla panna cotta with its burst of sharp raspberry is a pefect flavour combination and goes down really well. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner, although I might have to start buying bigger trousers. All that cream …. mmmmm!

  4. Chocolate cake, hands down :) I don’t even need the frosting. I just love chocolate cake.

  5. I have 2 things because it’s really hard to choose. My 1st would be my Dad’s recipe for his Banana bread, it is the moistest most delicious, it is more like a cake than a bread. Second, it would be my famous Dark Chocolate, Espresso, Nutella cookies, my biggest hit and most requested cookie.

  6. Apple crisp with vanilla bean ice cream! YUM!!!

  7. Wow! This is a tough one! I would have to go with a very chocolatey, fudgy brownie with nuts, no frosting.

  8. Tbe most chocolate laden brownie I can find. YUMM! Thanks for hosting. The pics from your trips look amazing.

  9. Rich chocolate cake with peanut butter icing. It reminds me of eating a Reese’s peanut butter cup.

  10. This may not sound exciting to most but mine would be chocolate chip cookies! Can’t get enough of them.

  11. Only one, but I’m a Gemini…. something fruity or chocolatey or eh..healthy? Coconut cheesecake with chocolate ganache, garnished with strawberries..

  12. It would be some sort of chocolatey, decadent thing…cheesecake probably. Yum!

  13. Linzer tarts!

  14. Cherry pie. My favorite dessert, hands down.

  15. Peanut butter cupcakes!

  16. I could eat lemon meringue pie every meal of every day… A trait handed down from my sweet granddad! I could whip up a mean meringue with this mixer!

  18. The sweet simplicity of chocolate chip cookies would last me just fine!

  19. That’s a hard question! I guess I would have to go with brownies.

  20. Cannolis. Plain and simple. My favorite desert of all time.

  21. I would have to say cheesecake – the hard part would be deciding which topping!!

  22. Cannolis! I absolutely love cannolis and if that were the only sweet I could eat the rest of my life, that would be fine with me! ;)

  23. I think it would have to be my aunt’s homemade brownies and frosting. It’s already my go-to when I need to make something.

  24. Chocolate bread pudding, warm, with vanilla ice cream.

  25. If I had to choose one sweet I would choose self-made panna cotta with strawberry sauce. Yummie!

  26. Tiramisu – no contest!

  27. My favorite dessert is cheesecake. Mu mom’s old, old recipe is the one I like the best. It is just a plain cheesecake with nothing extra on top or added to it. Wouldn’t a blender like this one make it a whole lot easier to make?!!!

  28. Awesome prize! I think I could live off of lemon cupcakes : )

  29. Homemade Apple Crisp – so good!

  30. I am so glad this is a pretend question. My one thing, and I cannot believe it is not a baked good, would be Skinny Cow white mint truffle ice cream bars,

  33. Homemade cherry pie! My grandma made the best!

  34. If I were to eat one kind of sweet/dessert for the rest of my life, it could only be “Brazo de Mercedes” (rolled cake made of egg whites rich custard filling). I love it so much! :)

  35. If I could only eat one dessert for the rest of my life it would be chocolate chip cookies. They are by far my go to food when I need a sweet, but I am picky about them. Soft, but not gooey; sweet, but with the right amount of salt; and butter, never margarine.

  36. Strawberry cheesecake :)

  37. I simply cant limit myself to 1 dessert it is just not possible but flavor of the day Id say a good old fashioned trifle with 3 or more layers its like a new dessert with every layer….. mmmmmm. Cant wait to see what i’ll feel like tomorrow ;)

    They are both gone now and I have searched high and low for the recipe but alas, have not found it… I’ve tried others but haven’t found the right one. I could eat that cake everyday forever!!

    Thanks for a chance to win. :)

  65. A really well made bannoffee pie with a rich crushed chocolate biscuit base, with loads of caramel and banana,

  66. One dessert….hmmm…would have to be cheesecake….and I am not talking the kind smothered in berries or chocolate or caramel…pure unadulterated cheesecake!

  70. Pumpkin pie with lots of whipped topping ;)

  72. Homemade cherry pie! My grandma used to make the best!

  73. Such a tough decision, but I think I may choose Tiramisu, any time I go to a new place that has it on the menu, I have to order it, even if I have to get it to go so I can try it later. MMMM

  74. If I could only eat one dessert for the rest of my life…. it would probably be regular old chocolate chips…. but the homemade kind… fresh and warm out of the oven!

  75. and anything with Pecans in it. Brownies to be exact!

  76. Just one? Oh, that’s so hard! But I’d say a good ole fashion yellow cake with chocolate icing!

  81. Definitely cherry cheesecake! Yum!!!

  82. That’s hard. Maybe warm out of the oven chocolate chip oatmeal cookies with raisins.

  83. hmm… only one dessert for the rest of my life? i think i’d have to go with mille feuille (or what we Americans call a Napoleon) filled with gianduja pastry cream (gianduja= milk chocolate+ hazelnut). it is soooooooo good.

  84. I’m a sucker for chocolate chip cookies. I can never get enough!!

  85. I’m going to pick “Blue Velvet Cupcakes” with classic cooked white frosting! They are red velvet cupcakes with blue food coloring substituted for the red. I made some last weekend for the March Madness basketball games. They are the perfect color to root the UK Wildcats on to the national championships next weekend!!!!

  86. Just a note to say I think you’re looking amazing….and I want the mixer

    but srsly, you look fantastic!!!!

  87. It would have to be affogato – hot espresso, cold vanilla ice cream, and a kick of kahlua for good measure.

  88. Ice cream! Anything with cookie dough and peanut butter cups.

  89. CHEESECAKE! Classic Madagascan vanilla at that! Love you Bakerella and thank you for keeping us all inspired xx

  90. Right now, at this moment it would be chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream. In a couple of hours it will absolutely be a different choice, LOL!

  91. I made a tuxedo cake the other day and I think it would be my pick!

  92. I would say Chocolate chip cookies. Yup. Couldn’t live without em.

  93. A chocolate cupcake with chocolate ganache filling and chocolate frosting! There is nothing better than chocolate!!

  94. It killed me to pick 1! Hersheys chocolate chip cookies (recipe off the milk chocolate chip bag) and breyers vanilla ice cream and we make sandwiches:-)

  95. If I could eat one dessert everyday it would either be strawberry shortcake or Madonna Inn Black Forest Cake. (minus the cherries) Living on the central coast of California we’re pretty spoiled,

  96. Anything chocolate, really, but if it has to be a specific dessert it would be red velvet with buttercream frostring.

  97. i believe my fav would have to be OREO truffles for the rest of my life……

  98. I would choose a Philadelphia Butter Cake; so delicious; found a recipe that comes pretty close and friends and family love it!

  99. It would be creme brulee hands down. Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee. I drool just thinking about it.

  100. If I could have any dessert, I’d have the chocolate ganache cake my neighbor made for us once. It was so rich and creamy and chocolate all around– yum! :D

    It was probably the best dessert I have ever eaten. :)

  101. Key lime pie! It’s so refreshing.

  102. Hands down, Chocolate Chip Cookies. YUM!

  103. ?·•? White chocolate + Caramel toffee + caramelised Macadamia Nut Cookies ?•·?

  109. Any kind of chocolate cake-the darker the chocolate the better ;)

  110. I would eat rocky road ice cream!

  111. ice cream. vanilla with cookie pieces (Oreo or choco chip)

  112. Cheesecake! Just plain really good cheesecake!

  113. Monster cookies! A little bit of everything. Thanks!

  114. If I could only eat one dessert or sweet for the rest of my life it would most definitely have to be Red Velvet Cake. It was my father’s favourite cake and every year I make it on his birthday. I fell in love with the flavour and could eat it all the time! Thank you for the opportunity to win such a beautiful mixer! I would definitely bake a lot more with that sitting in my kitchen! Mixing doughs by hand hurts the wrists after a while. Haha. Good luck to everyone.

  115. Such a hard choice!

    I’d probably go for hot chocolate fudge cake with a big scoop of good vanilla ice cream. Doesn’t get much better than that!

    This is pretty much the closest I’ll get to owning a Kitchen Aid mixer.

  116. turkish delight….coated in chocolate.

  117. Only ONE kind of dessert??? Hmmm…. We just got back from Disney and I had the most AMAZING caramel mocha cupcake. It was topped with a light whipped icing and “smooshed” in chocolate, caramel and toffee chips. HEAVEN on earth!! I could totally live on that forever! :)

    Thanks for offering this giveaway. I have been DYING for a Kitchenaid for a long, long time!!! The new blue color is amazing. It has a retro feel to it. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!

  118. That’s a hard one but I think it would be my oatmeal chocolate chip peanut butter cookies I make every winter.

  119. That’s a hard question. Some kind of pastry. Just one? I can’t!
    Chocolate eclairs, maybe?
    Gorgeous shots of Epcot.

  120. One dessert for the rest of my life…that’s easy!

    Graham crackers dunked in milk!

  121. Love my kitchen aid!!!! I cried when my first one died; couldn’t bake without it!!!!

  122. One dessert I’d choose to eat for the rest of my life is a very chocolatey brownie (warmed up!) with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream!! :) mmmm!!:)

  123. If I have only one life, let me relish it while eating my buttery, coconut cookies. Crunchy outside, chewy inside, they transport me to a tropical place in my mind. I could easily sustain myself with a steady “diet” of my Loco-Coconut Cookies, prepared with fresh, quality coconut.

  124. If I could pick only one dessert I would choose rainbow cookies. Three layers of moist almond like cake with raspberry or apricot jam in between the layers of cake topped with a hardened chocolate. Then sliced in to 1″ cookies so you don’t feel guilty eating more than one :)

  125. Panacotta all the way! any flavour, with any syrup! I just love the smoothness!

  126. If I had to pick just one dessert, it would definitely be the pink lemonade cake truffles I’ve been making! I can’t even roll and dip some because I end up eating the mixture before I start! Lol!

  127. My favorite dessert would be Banana Chocolate Chip Cupcake…

  128. You always have thee best weekends. Love it!! My all time favourite dessert has to be NewYork Cheesecake! I would eat it all day everyday!

  129. The mixer is gor-geous!!! I love that blue! I can’t decide whether I would go with the Jacques Torres chocolate chip cookies or homemade Oreos. I’m such a cookie fan that there’s no way I would be able to live without a cookie of some sort.

  130. The dessert I would love to eat for the rest of my life is definitely my mom’s chocolate mousse! It’s fluffy and chocolaty and a little bit coffee-y and just amazing. Even eating mousse of the same recipe wouldn’t work. When ever I try it it is just half as good (which still means good, but not perfect!).

  131. Chocolate chip cookies and vanilla ice cream!!!!!

  132. Creme brûlée! There’s just something about a blow torch in the kitchen that fires me up!
    Great blog this week, Angie – it’s always so much fun the experience all your sweet adventures – thanks!

  133. It would have to be brownies.

  134. Strawberry Shortcake.
    The old fashioned kind that Grandma used to make. The kind where the base has the consistency of a biscuit, not an angel food cake. The strawberries have to sit overnight in sugar, letting the juices start to flow, so that when they’re poured over the “cake” they make it soggy and delicious. Of course, it has to be topped with whipped cream…the real stuff. Heavy cream with a dash of vanilla. That dessert is as close to heaven as this earth is gonna get you.

  135. Red velvet cake pops dipped in white chocolate

  136. My mum’s lemon meringue pie – we always had for special occasions when I was little and it is still my favorite.

  137. Looks like you had a blast at Disney! The dessert i’d looooove to eat for the rest of my life would be chocolate cheesecake :)…combining two of my favorite things, chocolate and cheesecake!

  138. I love chocolate, so I say chocolate cake. <3

  139. How do I choose just one? If I must it would be red velvet cake, but it must be from the Bubble Room on Captiva Island.

  140. mine would have to be a s’mores bar. you can never go wrong with graham crackers…marshmallows and chocolate!!! I can eat that everyday <3

  141. Ahh what a beautiful mixer!! Ok i love all dessert but i do love me some chocolate ;) Dulce de leche swirled brownies! A cold glass of milk is a must ;)

  142. I would & could live on Choc mud cake with white choc ganache. Simple & the best of both worlds!

  143. You just can’t beat homemade apple crumble and custard, made with just sharp enough apples to cut through the sweetness of the vanilla custard. My very favourite!

  144. strawberry shortcake… the kind made with biscuits!

  145. I’d go for the classic newyork cheesecakes, nah, those are to die for!!!

  146. Dark Chocolate Brownies!

  147. If I had to pick one dessert it would be my mother’s brownies!

  148. OMG! What a beautiful color!!!! Chocolate chip cookies are my very favorite, so if I could only choose one thing, they would be it. Nice soft cookies, just slightly firm around the edges, not too many chocolate chips – that would be the perfect lifetime dessert for me! Thank you for the chance!

  149. CHOCOLATE! Sorry I guess you want something more specific than that. OK well, if I can only pick one thing then I guess it would have to be Buckeyes.

  150. My dessert would be creme brulee …always fabulous

  153. Pumpkin cheesecake, or any cheesecake for that matter!!

  154. Just one dessert? I’d have to go with classic chocolate chip cookies. I could never get tired of those!

  155. Wow, what a hard choice…. I would have to choose Lemon Cake. There has not been a time when the lovely lemon flavor has not brightened my taste buds. Lemon flavored frosting adds to the already delicious taste!

  156. I love chocolate and the dessert was the chocolate mousse cheesecake. I will love to win it’s going to look amazing in my kitchen. I like to make desserts. Thanks for the oppotunity.

  157. Brownies, definitely brownies….with ice cream….well now that would be 2 desserts…mmmm….o.k. Ice cream lets go with ice cream,….cookies and cream….oh, that’s probably 2 also, maybe oreo cookies? no, wait, wait. cheesecake, new york style cheesecake….but that reminds me of cake and I do love cake….maybe carrot cake, or chocolate. I can’t decide….tooooo hard! No, Wait, I’ve GOT it……The Cake Pop, of course – in chocolate cake….the perfect cute little dessert on a stick! Love you, Bakerella!!!

  158. Chocolate cake with chocolate frosting (specifically Barefoot Contessa’s Buttermilk Chocolate Cake)

  159. If I could only eat one dessert for the rest of my life (God forbid) I would eat chocolate peanut butter ice cream in a wafer cone! I could eat ice cream every day :)

  161. OMG! I LOVE LOVE the blue color :) Its Gorgeous!!

    If I had ti choose only one dessert to have it be cheesecake with cherry topping. Yum Yum!!!

  169. What a great giveaway! I would be very content with regular chocolate chip cookies. OR yellow cake with buttercream. OR apple pie a la mode. OR cake donuts. Wow, I hope I never have to really make this decision!

  170. It would absolutely have to be a French Opera Cake :) have just the right amount and texture.

  171. This is such an impossible question! Maybe a chocolate fondue because the options of add-ins are pretty endless! (although if i had to choose between them it would be strawberries :) )

  172. Pumpkin cheesecake!!! Or any cheesecake, for that matter! What a beautiful blue color!! Would love to win for my new business http://www.poggipete.com! Love your blog! :)

  175. My seven layer rainbow cookies

  176. If I could eat only ONE dessert for the rest of my life it would be almond puff pastry with icing. It is something my mom used to make and makes my mouth water when I think of it. I can never make it as good as my mom or as good as my memory remembers it. But it is heavenly

  181. I think it would have to be Key Lime Pie!

  182. If I could pick only one dessert it would be chocolate peanut butter cupcakes! I make them for my family and friends and we all adore them!

  183. Hmmm…. Probably a mix of cappuccino and peanut butter icecream with Reese’s topping. Or possibly anything peanut butter like peanut butter buttercream. But mostly peanut butter cups!
    Great giveaway!

  184. Cinnamon rolls…little ones, bigger ones, iced or not, with or without fruit or nuts! They are great morning, noon, and night!

  185. I would pick fresh, hot slutty brownies, with a scoop of caramel butter pecan ice cream on top. So good!

  186. Either Lemon Meringue or Apple Pie…only one???

  187. Just plain vanilla ice cream – preferably as a vanilla milk shake!

  188. Oh definitely caramel something, probably caramel slice or something equally sickly!

  189. I would have to say ice cream. You can choose so many flavors…. Yummy!

  190. If I could only eat one dessert forever, it would be… Publix Supermarket’s Fresh-Baked Chocolate Chip Cookies. I’m not sure what evil ingredient is in there that makes them so compelling… but I’ve tried Chocolate Chip Cookies all over the world, and never had one as good. I eat them plain, frozen, with milk, with coffee — and they are all good!

  191. Cheese flan

  192. I think it would have to be classic chocolate chip cookies. They never get old!

  193. Cheese flan. I grew up eating this, as my grandma was a great pastry cook, and I tell you nothing compares to the delicious richness and decadence of a bite of flan!

  194. as for my favourite… has to be chocolate moelleux with a liquid center when you stick your spoon in it… simply moorish

  195. Wow! Fantastic give-a-way! I love your blog and all your wonderful pictures! Thank you for writing such an upbeat blog!

    Since I have to eat strictly gluten-free I would say cheesecake…anything cheesecake….yummy!

  196. Mmm, ice cream!

  197. I loved the post. It brought back good memories of travelling with all my family to spend some days in Orlando, visiting the parks including of course Epcot Centre, wow…time flies, and it´s also great to put faces to some people from other blogs as well. Thanks for sharing all these with us.

  198. I love the dessert that is made with a saltine base and then butter/brown sugar over that and chocolate chips melted on top with nuts sprinkled…the recipe I have calls it toffee crackers, but I’ve seen it called other things too. THAT is something I could eat by the pan. MMmmmmmmm

  199. Chocolate…..Of course!!! Specifically Chocolate cake with Belgian Chocolate mouse filling!!!! I hope i win!!!!

  200. I could die for this color! Never posted here, but I have to!
    Well, I would go for a chocolate mousse because
    1) I love chocolate
    2) and I guess it would be the one I could never get tired of!
