| - This was my 1st time at La Grande Orange, and what a great way to get familiar with this place by attending the CYME. I have to say when I entered the 2nd room and I saw how big all those yummy treats where I felt like I was Alice in Wonderland and just ate that cake that made me small and was attending a party at the Mad Hatters! My eyes could not believe the size of the cupcakes, cookies, brownies, danishes & croissants. Oh I just knew I was in sweet heaven!
I tried so many delicious things, the freshest strawberry Danish with this buttery melt in your mouth crust, the hugest chocolate cupcake, peach, chocolate, vanilla and chocolate mint gelato, and I have to say the chocolate mint was a surprise to me, it had both spearmint & peppermint in the blend. Its hard to pick a favorite on the cookies, but I have to say it's a tie for me, I really enjoyed the oatmeal cranberry raisin cookie and the chocolate chip cookie, both cookies were ligithly sprinkled with salt flakes, salty sweet combos are my favorite and La Grande Orange just took it to a whole other level with these cookies, unbelievably good! :( so heartbreakingly sad now that I have none to eat. And everything went so perfectly well with my pink champaign. But my very favorite item of the night, the English muffins OMG!!! I'm hooked and badly need more!
Lindsey also saved us Yelpers by handing out the Yelp Fans! After all we all were in a working kitchen, and it was definitely hawt!
The only words that best describe this evening, indulgence, decadent, delicious. C`est Magnifique!
Thank you Lindsey & Yelp for another great event and many thank yous to La Grande Orange for opening your doors to us and allowing us a sweet taste of bliss!
