I am grateful for clients like Kosher.com who give me jobs that feel more like fun that like work. Check out this Chanaukah Tablescape I created for them.

Here is an easy, refreshing summer dessert idea to enhance your next summer party. I tried to keep it simple, so you can spend more time in the sun and less time in the kitchen.

Simple, delicious, light and refreshing, the chopped fruit and sorbet combination will be a big hit on any hot summer day!

Though during the year I try to keep my salads to the healthier side, for Tu B'shvat I treat my family and guests, to something a little more exotic. When I tasted this salad by my cousin Leah’les house some time ago, I knew it was one that I’d want to share. Whether you plate it and serve it to start off the meal, or serve it with the main, it’s sure to be a big hit.

When I was growing up, the Chalav Yisrael cheese varieties were pretty much limited to the big packs of single slice American Cheeze and one or two other types. Today it’s quite different with the huge variety of cheeses available in Colov Yisrael. As the cheeses come in so many different shapes, looks, sizes and of course tastes, without much effort your presentation will have all your participants smiling, and saying “cheese” (sorry,couldn’t resist the pun)

Rosh Hashana is the perfect time for this unique and creative apple pie presentation. These classic apple cobblers are served in mini mason jars and the jar rings circle the ice cream scoop to add interest to the presentation. The cinnamon stick and dried apricots complete the fall and rustic look.

I scream, you scream….This has got to be the simplest birthday cake ever! We all know how much everyone loves ice cream cakes, yet we also know how pricey they tend to be. So here’s an idea that is very cost effective, practically effortless, delicious, and most of all, “we’ll all scream” for more! The base of the cake is ice cream sandwiches. You can decorate it as a fun birthday cake using edible spray, piping gel, sprinkles… or as an elegant dessert using caramel topping, nuts, chocolate shavings….
