From Carroll Pellegrinelli, your Guide to Desserts/Baking
I've began shopping on the day after Thanksgiving with my grandmother when I was 8-years-old. Today I shop with my daughter and a very good friend. Each year the stores have done their best to take some of our joy out of shopping on that day. First of all, just the name "Black Friday" doesn't even sound like it could be a fun day of shopping. Second of all, each year the stores began opening earlier and earlier. In fact, some stores are even open on Thanksgiving Day. This year is the worse though. A good portion of the stores are opening at midnight. So I guess there's no eating brunch after and early morning of shopping. I don't even think I'm going this year. I will do all of my shopping online. If you're looking for a new ideas for the dessert maker in your life, here are my top product and cookbook reviews of 2011.

Babycakes Cake Pop Maker
It's amazing how much fun can come out of such a small machine such as the Babycakes Cake Pop Maker. The decorating options are only limited by your imagination. read more

Cupcake Tower
Cupcakes are happiness in a small package, and Cake Pops offer even more happiness in a smaller package. The Cupcake Tower™ is a wonderful way to display these happy cakes. The towers come with two and up to five levels. Read More.

Flirty Aprons
If you're looking for the perfect gift for the baker and dessert maker in your life, a Flirty Apron should be at the top of your list. Don't want to wait for someone to give you one? Read More

WellnessMats
I can never go back to working in my kitchen without a WellnessMat. It makes stirring pots at the stove, mixing doughs and batters on the counter or even washing dishes in the sink so much more bearable. I promise, once you experience the comfort of a WellnessMat you'll never go back either.
