Columbia County Bounty Cakes

Regina outdid herself once again with 3 fabulous cakes at the Columbia County Bounty event. The temperature was soaring so the cake had to be cut fast, but a good time was had by all.

 Black Forest Cake with fresh local cherries from Egers and Dark Chocolate from The Chocolate Bar.

Peach Melba Cake with local fresh peaches from Egers Farm and Lemon Mouse!

And a Coconut Cake that can usually be found at Verdigris Tea.

Not a slice was left !!!!!

Wedding cake season

Chef Regina has been really busy. I keep running after her with a camera trying to get shots of the most amazing cakes. This is what the little white CakeMobile was stocked with for a party and a wedding with vegan and grooms cakes.

Fall classes

NEW CLASSES!

TALKING TEA - 201

Come join Verdigris Tea’s founder and tea expert extraordinaire, Kim Bach, as she teaches the basics of tea – its origin, harvesting, import and, most importantly, preparation and taste.

Aug 30th  – 6 – 7:30 – China Green Teas

Sept 27th – 6 - 7:30 – Sri Lanka Black Teas

Oct 25th  – 6 - 7:30 – White Teas

Nov 22nd  – 6 - 7:30 – Spicy & Smoky Teas

 

Each class will feature teas of a different region.  Learn which teas are the most popular in China, which teas are considered the equivalent of “single malt Scotch” and why a “low bake” temperature in curing is so beneficial. Participants will be led through the process of looking at teas both dry and wet, using the senses to analyze the tea and finally, observing how to brew the leaves properly then tasting the result.

Reservations are required.  Fee is $20.00 per class payable in advance.  As part of the entry fee, each class member will receive 3 1-oz. packets of the evening’s featured teas.  Register NOW!
