Brownies don’t always mean chocolate these days. Sometimes they mean orange cakey goodness with a sweet glaze!

Arla Flavored Coffee Creamers.
The design of these flavored coffee creamer “jiggers” for Arla Foods (designed by Neumeister) remind me of the same design as those Minute Maid frozen pushups everyone used to eat during lunch in the school cafeteria. Brilliant, fun design!

The Daily Eat: Orange Blackberry Muffins.
In my experience, orange is one of those flavors that has the ability to make other ingredients that much better without being too overpowering. It’s the perfect supporting actress if you will. See it at work when you try out these Orange Blackberry Muffins.

Lettergirl Handlettered Address Stamps.
I’m in complete and utter glee over these handlettered address stamps from Lettergirl. I’ve been hesitating on designing any return address labels since moving into my house last July and now I think I know why! So, so pretty. (Funnily enough, Sewickley, PA – lower right – is a 15 minute drive from my hometown. Hehe!)

The Daily Eat: Maple Layer Cake.
What it all boils down to really is that I’m a Cake Girl at heart. Not cake with icing, but the actual cake part. Grocery store bakery or five star restaurant, I love them all. The idea of this Maple Layer Cake really intrigues me.
