just desserts

March 29, 2019

For me, the rock star of any good hotel is the pastry chef!

I have a passion for baking and baking shows and I love to see every variety of dessert provided at a hotel.  I always check out every dessert possible in every hotel I happen to visit!

And, of course, I need to taste every one as well!

At the Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel, I discovered a new dessert this trip that ended up my favorite – a baklava cookie!  It tasted much like baklava but more in a cookie format.  It had a shortbread crust and all the flavors of a traditional baklava.  Heavenly!

I hope today’s Friday field trip inspires you to try making a new dessert…or maybe just tasting one!

Have a fabulous weekend!

Remember to take pleasure in simple things- like trying a new dessert!   Jackie
