Discover the Best Trudeau Baking Gear for the Best Holiday Treats-Giveaway

November 17, 2016 by Kathryn 162 Comments

As far as I’m concerned, one of the best things about the holidays is the food! I love the variety of appetizers we generally serve on Christmas Eve, the big turkey dinner with all the fixing on Christmas Day and, of course, the endless array of tasty and decadent desserts! I’m notorious for going overboard on holiday baking and when I want to whip up some tasty treats for Christmas, I turn to baking gear from Trudeau to get perfect results every time!

I’ve only recently discovered Trudeau kitchen gear and already it’s become a staple in my household. From silicone spatulas and whisks to high-quality cake pans and decorating pens, this gear makes whipping up dozens of different recipes easy! Wondering which items will be most useful for helping you get through your holiday baking? These are my top Trudeau products for three popular types of holiday treats:

Cookies – Silicone Baking Sheet Liner

If you’ve ever had your cookies come out of the oven with blackened bottoms or had cookies stick to your cookie sheets, you’ll love this handy silicone liner. It can be used unfolded on large trays or folded in half for smaller cookie sheets. And not only does the silicone mean that there’s no need to grease pans and no risk of sticking, the liner also results in perfect, evenly cooked cookies without overly browned bottoms! [Read more…]

With Christmas just a few weeks away, I am baking up a storm getting ready for the upcoming holiday. And whether I’m making cookies, candy, squares or slices, my Baker’s Secret pans are a must in my kitchen. I recently received the Baker’s Secret 5 pc. Easy Store Bakeware set, and it’s been an absolute must-have in my kitchen for holiday baking. The 9×13 cake pan is my personal favourite in the set; not only is it a great size for all kinds of squares, it’s ideal for my very favourite Cookies and Cream Cheesecake.

Looking for a Different Main Course for the Holidays? Let’s Talk Turducken!

November 5, 2014 by Kathryn 57 Comments

My family loves turkey as a holiday main course, and it’s a long-standing tradition that I cook up a huge glazed turkey for any major celebration. But after years and years of holiday turkey meals, I have to admit that I was ready for a change. And Echelon Foods had the perfect solution for me…the Turducken!

Now I’d heard of the infamous chicken stuffed in a duck stuffed in a turkey before, and I’d always been intrigued by the concept. But the execution seemed too complex for me to actually consider making the dish for my family. Echelon Foods has made the meal a great choice for anyone, though, with its Original Turducken: a turkey filled with boneless duck, chicken breast and stuffing that comes ready to roast and serves about 15 people!

Get Holiday-Ready with Festive New Favourites from the President’s Choice Holiday Insider’s Report-Giveaway

December 10, 2012 by Kathryn 179 Comments

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Yes, it’s Christmas of course, but it’s also time for the President’s Choice Holiday Insider’s Report! Even before I started my blog, I absolutely loved getting this little flyer full of the newest and tastiest PC products for holiday fun. So I was thrilled when I received a big box full of some of the latest PC goodies to test out.

pc ice vidal syrupFrom light and healthy appetizers to decadent main dishes, there is something for everyone in this year’s collection, including the new and classy President’s Choice Black Label Collection. I had heard a great deal about the new line, which was created to celebrate the finest foods and flavours, so pulling out PC Black Label Sangria Cocktail Mixer and PC Black Label Apricot and Amaretto Fruit Spread was an exciting moment. I especially loved the PC Black Label Vidal Ice Syrup. While this rich syrup made with Niagara Vidal grapes is amazing on sweet desserts like cake or ice cream, it’s also a delicious flavour enhancer for beef or chicken.

The box also contained an assortment of some of my favourite tried-and-true holiday treats and new delicious sweets including my favourite PC Big Box Chocolate and Toffee Collection and the instantly addictive PC Candy Cane Chocolate Squares. But it was the frozen and refrigerated goodies that I really wanted to try out, so I headed to my nearby Real Canadian Superstore to pick up a few of the latest specialties. [Read more…]
