Dean & Deluca on the holidays: Cute and expensive, but so darn cute!
Posted on Dec 03 in Food Porn, holidayby NikaPrint
I am on the Dean & Deluca emailing list and I have to say it is both a torture and an inspiration!
Everything is WAY too expensive for me but just about all of it is something I could make or have fun trying to make.
Last year I had lots of fun making a few gingerbread men as you can see in the shot below.
I had looked all over the web to see how gingerbread men are traditionally decorated and found lots of uninspiring stuff. I guess I march to a different drummer because soon I was making gingerbread designs like the one below.
Sometimes, I visit the Dean & Deluca site just for the food porn, other times I visit to salivate over the Spanish and Italian hams, the deluxe and exotic meats, the foies, and the gobsmacking cheeses!
During the holidays, Dean & Deluca shines the brightest. Take a look around and get some inspiration yourself.
Those chocolate snowballs are described as follows at the Dean & Deluca site:
Creamy white chocolate and coconut ganache truffles, generously dipped in white chocolate and finished with finely shredded coconut. From Christopher Norman in New York City, purveyors of beautifully sculpted chocolates and confections.Twelve pieces, 5 oz. total USA
