So after my last sadly tragic attempt at making chocolate peanut butter croissants, you’d think I’d veer away from trying them again for a while. But I had a sheet of frozen puff pastry leftover from last time and tired of it mocking me every time I opened the freezer, I decided to give it […]

Helllooo people,
First of all I want to thank everyone for all of the kind birthday wishes!! :) It was a really good one, but the celebration is not over yet! I am writing from Long Beach Island where a lot of chocolate peanut butter birthday dessert consumption is going down. We don’t have wireless at […]

This photo of a crazy looking churro and the tube it came in was found on flickr. It’s called the “Mississippi” and it costs a mighty $4. It’s a peanut butter filled churro covered with chocolate and peanuts. The photographer calls the tubes “wasteful” and while I appreciate good package design, I have to agree… […]

This is one of the few photos from the Fancy Food Show that actually came out clear. I’m a fan of Dale and Thomas’s products and not just because they’re from my state (NJ - represent!). They make some really fun, creative products, at least a couple of which contain both chocolate and peanut butter. […]

Not the most photogenic treat, but don’t be fooled, this stuff is addictive.
Side Note: I think I’m going to mix it up a little and post items from the food show every couple days instead of every single day. This way you can still come here for recipe ideas and I can blab about what’s […]

If you are a frequent CPBG reader, you may have heard me mention my taste tester at some point. Whenever I’m out shopping, I browse around for treats to pick up for me (of course!), but I also keep an eye out for things to buy for him. He deserves it as he lends his […]

Tagline: “Protein Nutrition Bar”
When it comes to protein bars, I’ll admit it: I judge a protein bar by it’s cover. And I’m a little scared off the bat to taste this bar. It’s got some bright flashy packaging and on it, it says “16 grams of quality protein.” The last bar I tasted with that […]

I promote a lot of unhealthy foods on this website. This is pretty obvious, given the site’s name. What may not be so obvious is that aside from eating rich desserts, I actually eat pretty healthfully on the whole. One of my all time favorite healthy snacks since childhood has been rice cakes. To those […]

Tagline: Cocoa Dipped Double Decker Crisp Bar. The Entirely Natural Protein Bar.
Well, I like the sound of that tagline, so we’re off to a good start. Having confidence when tasting protein bars is key, since some of them can be quite nasty.
While Clif Bar packaging may not be the most attractive in the world, […]

You can place an order for this brick of french toast deliciousness at Guppy Teahouse in Cerritos, CA. I live nowhere near that, which is just not fair. Winnie, the lucky photographer and consumer says “the toast is a good two inches in height and crunchy toasty on the outside but soft on the inside”. […]
