Ciao Bella Gelato Giveaway & San Fran Photos

Saturday, November 8th, 2008

I am so excited about today’s post because I am having such a fun giveaway!  Ciao Bella Gelato contacted me after my last post of my travels in San Francisco and wanted to give my readers a taste of Ciao Bella for themselves.  They are by far my favorite gelato and sorbet company and supply for top restaurants all over, are at your local Whole Foods, and their Blood Orange Sorbet was recently featured on Oprah’s “Favorite Things” list.  Their flavors are sooo unique and full of flavor!  So my lucky readers three of you will be chosen as the winners and receive four pints of Ciao Bella’s favorite flavors.  To enter the contest you simply need to visit their site and let me know which flavor sounds the best to you.  The contest will run until next Friday night!  Here are some lovely photos they sent me to wet your appetite! They are Blood Orange Sorbetto, Maple Ginger Snap Gelato, and Blackberry Cabernet Sorbetto.  

Now onto the last set of San Francisco photos.  These photos are from my trip to I Dream of Cake, which is probably one of the most amazing cake design studios out there.  Definitely stop by and check out their website…it is AMAZING!!!  Also here are some of the photos I took of their storefront.  

The second spot in the day was to Kara’s Cupcakes which is located in Ghirardelli Square. I have read numerous things about Kara’s Cupcakes and couldn’t wait to try them for myself.  

I ordered their Passion Fruit Cupcake & Peanut Butter Milk Chocolate Ganache Cupcake…both were quite delicious!

Definitely a happy day in San Francisco!

I also wanted to say THANK YOU to The Bumbling Baker for my E for Excellent Award and Piece of Cake for my Kreativ Blogger Award!!! Thanks so much ladies!

 

 

San Francisco – Ferry Plaza Farmer’s Market

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

Well, like I said in the last post my trip to Florida got cancelled so we packed up the car and drove six hours to San Francisco.  We had an absolutely amazing time and packed so many fun places into 3 days and of course all of the places were food related!!!  This post is going to be all about my trip to the Ferry Farmer’s Market.  I have been waiting years to go and it completely lived up to all of my expectations. So here are some photos of the many, many places we had the pleasure of eating at….

One of the first stops along the way was to Miette Patisserie!  They actually have two different locations and we got a chance to eat at one and at least peer into the other one at night.  Everything we ate there was amazingly delicious and absolutely gorgeous.  

Here is a photo of the confiserie at night.

The next stop in the day was to Recchiuti Confections and Scharffen Berger Chocolate…both extremely yummy!

Next on the list was something a little savory, so we stopped by Acme Bread and The Cowgirl Creamery. Then we went outside and enjoyed the day!

Tim even enjoyed an oyster…something I just couldn’t bring myself to do!

Before leaving we also stopped by Ciao Bella Gelato…one of my favorite gelato places! 

From the photos you can see that we had a day full of fun and lots of food!  Get ready for some more photos!
