The Most Popular Recipe in August

Is this cheating? The most popular recipe for August is one that never wanes in interest: chocolate chip cookies! We won’t call it cheating because it doesn’t always take the top spot, but it’s pretty much always up there, because there is no bad time to make a batch of chocolate chip cookies using my guide.

New Merch in The ZoëBakes Shop

Have you browsed my new shop? My husband was a graphic designer when I met him in 1986 and created T-shirts for the dance club where we met. He recently designed a “Diva Cake” T-shirt for me to wear at an event where I was serving the cake. Everyone at the event loved the cake AND the T-shirt so we added it to the shop, along with some other designs, “Sugar” and the marshmallow “Cover Cake” from Zoë Bakes Cakes! I am so thrilled to watch Graham design again and thrilled that I get to share the T-shirts with you! The shop is also the best place to find all my books, signed by me! It also features the line of aprons designed by me and my son, Henri. This is a family affair and I could not be happier!

Perfect Potluck Desserts

What makes for a great potluck dessert? I think it’s all about small treats that look great on a dessert table and can be easily eaten with little fuss or mess. You’ll need treats that are easily packaged and transported, and are crowd pleasers. I put together a list of my favorite potluck desserts, from classics like bars and cookies, to some options that are a little more adventurous but still simple and easy to bring to your next big event.
