Essence of Hazel’s Bailey’s Cheesecake, Chocolate Indulgence Cupcake, Chocolate covered Strawberry and Chocolate drizzled Pretzel
#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!

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.

You may be more familiar with Trevanne Donegal and The Layer Cake, but after returning from further Cuisine and Patisserie training at the well established Le Cordon Bleu in London, she has been building her dream kitchen and has rebranded with the name, Sear 274!
Here is just a touch of what she has been up to since she has been back. Absolutely salivating!
Trevanne makes a hell of a Lobster Mac and Cheese!
Trevanne’s Cinco de Mayo spread earlier this year.
Trevanne’s sumptuous Tiramisu Cupcakes.
Look out for her and one of my other faves, Christina Simonitsch at Martell & GH Mumm’s booth at the Table Talk Jamaica Observer Food Awards tomorrow night at the Devon House!
Trevanne will have Dark Chocolate Martell Cognac Caramel Truffles ðŸ˜

The Sweetart Bake Expo held at The Jamaica Pegasus two Sundays ago had patrons in awe at the creativity of Cakes decorated and probably sent everyone’s sweet tooth into overdrive with the samples given.
There were On-stage demos and Presentations on Cake Decorating, as well as classes that were conducted, including one that was by a local instructor.
Sometimes a Cake is decorated well and doesn’t taste as good as it looks, but the proof is in the pudding. Suga was most impressed with the Piña Colada cupcake by Alex’s creations (@alexcreationsja). I tasted the rum first, followed by the coconut flavour, then was hit with the sweet accentuated by the icing. Fantastic!
Other tasty highlights for Suga: *Instagram tags in brackets
• Cheesecake by Kelsey’s Kreations (@kelseyskreations_ja)
• Bread Pudding by Skimo’s Pastries (@skimos_pastries)
• Banana Bread by La Jazz Sweet Tooth (@lajazzp_c)
I know persons are straying from the traditional Fruit cakes for Weddings, but I only got two to taste that were not up to standard. Perhaps Blissful Bites by Delvena came close. Lemon cakes are now a popular choice for Weddings, but none of them hit the spot.
The presence of well-known Bakers was missed, but there are many on the rise with potential who were present and have been working on their craft for years. The Cake Decorating Competitions displayed high levels of skill and creativity, making things look so real.
