Candied Lemon Oat Scones

Week 3 | 3.4.2010

The lemon zest has been candied and this week’s treats are in the works. I noticed these organic lemons from (Twin Girls Farm) at the market for only slightly more than regular ones. Zest, candy, lemons…organic is a good way to go this time around. Lemon zest on the left, cocktail grapefruit on the right.

Orange Chocolate Ganache Tarts

Week 2 | 2.25.2010

I came across something nice, dark chocolate and orange, and decided I wanted some in one of my favorite dessert forms – a tart. My original idea was to fill a sweet pastry crust with chocolate ganache that was flavored with zest and some orange syrup from candying orange peel earlier on.
