Word travels fast when the IcedGems truck pulls up out front here in Baltimore. Sometimes we get an email, other times a co-worker comes up with a clear plastic container of the colorfully decorated desserts. And on days like today, you come back from lunch to find a cupcake personally delivered from a co-worker who feels the […]
Remember this recipe of delicious goodness? Well, my good friends of Lemon and Lime needed a German chocolate cake for cutting at a wedding. Que the go-to recipe.
