#tbt to Dessert Heaven from Essence of Hazel!

When Essence of Hazel’s Budget Friendly Box of Bailey’s Cheesecake, Chocolate Indulgence Cupcake, Chocolate covered Strawberry and Chocolate drizzled Pretzel popped up in my Instagram feed for $1200JMD, it was a no-brainer.

I know CEO, Kayla Evans to be another Baker who makes rich Chocolate Cakes, so I couldn’t wait to try more from her.

It was refreshing to order from Kayla. She was professional, communicated effectively, was on time and followed up with me for feedback.

It was my Anniversary last Thursday and this box of heavenly goodness was the perfect dessert after lunch and surprise treat for my husband who adores not only me, but Chocolate. We had it with Champagne and it was just as good as expected. The Cakes were rich, moist, and flavourful.

Be sure to check out what Essence of Hazel has for Mother’s Day. A sensational package!

Sensational Package- Bailey’s Cheesecake, Black Forest Cake, Chocolate covered Strawberries, a 200ml bottle of Bailey’s, Ferrero Rocher Chocolates, all gift wrapped in a box with a card.

One thing though, hopefully next time Kayla gets some Choco Bites from one of our local Chocolatiers or incorporates them into her baking like a few others are doing right now.

She has the MAMA Box too, customized gifts and more!

Suga Taster, Kimberly Nesbeth

During Love in the Time of Corona, EITS Cafe has been offering Door Step Dining. There are usually two Soup options and six Meal options, in addition to some fun treats such as Pesto, Herb Butter and Cookies.

20200418_202537

There are also refreshing and simple Salads. There are suggested combinations and an option to build your own Salad, which is what I ordered.

20200418_202521

There are quite a few options you can choose from, and part of the fun is switching it up so that you’re not having the same Salad every day.

The Salads are fresh and tasty🙌🏾

Mouth-watering Steak from Stonegate Smoke!

Steak from Stonegate Smoke! (Instagram Photo: @stonegatesmoke)

A few Sundays ago, a Jamaican and his neighbours in Michigan a.k.a Stonegate Smoke fired up the ol’ smoker and put on a marinated tri-tip (triangular cut from the bottom sirloin) from Byron Centre Meats. It finished with an 800° sear!

Mouth-watering meat charred to perfection makes any face happy during quarantine.

Cake by Kuk Up Kreations

Suga Lifestyle congratulates Kuk Up Kreations for 10 years in the Pastry, Cake and Catering business and for hitting 10,000 followers last week on Instagram!

A cake by Kuk Up Kreations is usually the highlight of many birthday, christening, baby and bridal shower celebrations that I have been to. Their cakes not only look good, but taste great too. You’ll experience the right amount of richness in flavour and moisture as you cut on the inside.

With Social Distancing in light of Covid-19, families and loved ones still find a way to celebrate special occasions with smaller gatherings.

Smaller gatherings call for smaller cakes, well sometimes. Either way, Kuk Up Kreations has started to make 5-inch cakes for you! They are available for same day orders in Chocolate, Red Velvet and Vanilla.

Check out Kuk Up Kreations Today!
