It looks appealing ... but the sugar-spike might be too much ...


Never!

For you, Josh, in case you want a little cake.

These are vanilla petit fours filled with chocolate ganache and a thin almond icing. Two bites each.

Stress makes me want cake. I REALLY want cake today. 🤣

If I eat a whole tray, are they still considered petit?

Thank you. My wife has become an expert in making cakes sugar-free, wheat-free and gluten-free -- and they are very tasty too. I keep telling her she should do a cookery-book.

It seems, as i age, i've developed a gluten allergy (i often ignore to my suffering) and i'd definitely purchase a Cookery Book from Your wife.

They look very tasty and while i don't consume sweets,
i do at certain times of the year and here, it would not count as i would just eat ONE, right?

Hi Tallen. Hopefully, in a couple of months, I'm going to find myself with a lot more time on my hands. So I'm thinking of learning cake-making myself from her, and then putting together a book. I already know a great photographer, friend who lives nearby.

Other nights I've been kind of embarrassed about what I put out there when it didn't, but it's like that every year. I love doing this. I love the discipline of it. I love doing it with all of you. Thank you for this annual gift.

Well said, I totally agree, gift indeed, the process and the people

Woah, I'm getting a special dispensation, thank you. They look ultra-tempting. It's the icing sugar though... . Still. I'm sure I can handle, one ... or two ...

Yo! Ho! Weary NaPoets! Look see look see! T-MINUS THREE DAYS TO GO! Those who have already posted today are at T-MINUS TWO DAYS!!

Looks like a sandworm strike may end up swallowing yet another - but we're sending out a search party this morning! Hopefully we can pull her out of its jaws before it closes for good!

Keep Going, NaPoets! YOU ARE THERE!!

T-MINUS TWO MORE DAYS, NAPOETS!! T-MINUS TWO MORE DAYS! For those who have already posted today, T-MINUS ONE MORE DAY! Looks like a Sandworm swallowed another entrant, but BYGOD, out of a goal of getting at least 30 across, WE'RE GETTING 31 ACROSS THE FINISH LINE!

Many have fallen, but many more have not! Congratulations, NaPoets! You've almost reached the Oasis of Awards!

Our veteran NaPoets are aware of this, but our newbies may not be. This challenge is scheduled to end at 12:12 PM EDT tomorrow because you can only schedule a comp for 30 days; however, it won't officially end until MIDNIGHT PDT. So, keep posting per your schedule!

T-MIINUS TODAY, NAPOETS! T-MINUS TODAY! Those who have already posted today, CONGRATULATIONS, you will be honored tomorrow! We had another sandworm strike yesterday! We can't seem to get away from them! But that's okay! She's getting back up on her camel to finish this challenge!
