One of the best ways my mom communicates love is through carrot cake. Seriously. Her co-workers know that it’s gonna be a great day when she shows up to the hospital (she’s a psych nurse) holding the covered dish that houses her famous 3-layered orange carrot cake sandwiched with orange cream cheese frosting. It’s insanely […]
The holidays are the perfect excuse to invite friends for an impromptu celebration – plus with overnight guests coming and going, there are lots of opportunities for last-minute cocktails! When our friends at McCormick asked us to come up with easy drink and snack pairings that include their dee-lish extracts, we jumped at the chance to […]

featured image by Johnny Miller via Martha Stewart You guys have already heard me kvetch about the lack of beautifully designed judaica, which is why when I discovered Jewish Food Hero — specifically this beautiful letterpress calendar — I nearly did a backflip. A deeper dive into all that founder Kenden Alfond has created revealed […]
Sufganiyot are iconic for Chanukah. Kenden from Jewish Food Hero wanted to make a version that’s better for you than the traditional deep-fried ones. These easy baked doughnuts avoid all the traditional mess of deep-frying, but are just as delicious. Glistening with strawberry glaze, these doughnuts will delight you and your guests.

‘Cause you shouldn’t have to choose.
Most of the parties we host at our house are as casual as it gets: thirty minutes in, everyone’s kicked off their shoes (and usually jumped in the pool). If I serve appetizers, it’s something super simple like homemade guac and salsas or a good cheese with a crusty baguette. The one exception is our […]

“But first, coffee,” is how most mornings start at the Camille Styles office. And as the sole member of the team who isn’t crazy about coffee (or tea for that matter), I’m usually left with nothing warm to sip on. However, when the weather starts cooling down, I finally get to break out my mugs […]
If you asked Instagram, 2016 could have been the year of the cheese board. And is it any surprise? Few culinary creations are as photogenic as a big wood cutting board brimming with colorful cheeses, fruits, meats (and lots more if you get creative), and I’ve got to admit, it’s a trend I don’t think I’ll get […]
If we’re being honest, this dessert is really more like a diorama than it is a fully developed recipe, but rest assured it is not lacking in flavor. I’ve been having a blast playing around with baking chocolate this holiday season (remember these salty chocolate-covered pretzels?), and recently, when we sat down to brainstorm how we could […]
I don’t have much of a sweet tooth. Gummy candies and super sweet frosting have never done much for my palate, and really, the thought of biting through a Gusher or jelly bean makes me cringe. Instead, my caloric indulgences come in the form of savory foods like flaky pastry dough, buttery croissants, and lots of creamy cheeses. I will admit, […]
