Countdown Clocks to Crème Caramel LA Events!

Wee!  Excited to bring back our desserts to the Melrose Place Farmers' Market this Sunday!  The weather is going to beautiful and we can't wait to see our friends out and about.

The next two months are going to be bananuts for Crème Caramel LA, so we decided to amp up our anticipation by installing countdown clocks for each event!!  (Not as sexy as I'd like, but hey it's COUNTING DOWN our events.  I love it!)

Let's start with this Sunday's Farmers' Market in West Hollywood:



Yee!  It worked!  Next up, GOOD LA's Launch Weekend - Community Marketplace at Atwater Crossing:



Yahoo!  Purple and Gold!  What about counting down to the fantastic food event, Artisanal LA?



Spring-y!  Here's the countdown to our 2nd Farmers' Market at the Americana in Glendale:



I apologize for my nerdy love of this, but here's the last countdown for UNIQUE LA!



Hope to see you all.  We're making Green Tea White Chocolate Crème Caramel again as an off menu item on Sunday.  Hope to see you there!

I'll be 10, 9, 8ing,

We Made a Map!

Since we're all over the Los Angeles map in the next two months, we made a little "Where's CCLA?" guide for you, our dear friends.

Here's the link for the inner map geek in you: Map

Melrose Place Farmers Market is back on this Sunday, April 3rd.  If you missed us as much as we missed you, you won't be surprised by our random hug giving this Sunday.  It's what we do.

Here's a handy guide of the upcoming events to go with your spiffy map:

April 8, 9, 10 - GOOD LA Launch Weekend

Artisanal LA and Unique LA vendors will be mashing it up at the Pop-Up Community Center in the snazzy Atwater Crossing complex on Saturday, April 9th!  GOOD LA has so many fun activities and things to do for their launch, so if you can't make it to the Community Center, definitely check out the other GOOD things going on over the weekend!  DON'T FORGET TO RSVP!

April 16-17 - Artisanal LA Spring Show

Saturday, April 16th | 11a - 8p

Sunday, April 17th | 11a - 7p

It's our second Artisanal LA show since our official launch at the December Holiday Pop-Up, just 3 and half months ago!  We're hoping this is a trend. :)  If there is one food event you MUST go to this year, it is this one.  Artisanal LA was launched to bring together local food producers and artisans to showcase their craft and spread the love of local eats.  If you haven't been to the December or October shows, you don't want to miss the Spring event.  It's at a new venue - Santa Monica Place's NEW Dining Deck in the heart of Santa Monica!  Beautiful views and tantalizing treats.  A fantastic way to start off your Spring!  **SPOILER ALERT - we're bringing a new treat to this event that will be available at ARTISANAL LA ONLY!**

Pre-Sale Tickets -- available online through Eventbrite beginning April 1 -- $10

Day of Event Tickets -- available at the door, space permitting -- $15

* All programming, hosted beverages and tote bags (for the first 1000 attendees) are included in the ticket price

April 23 - 2nd Farmers' Market Added - Gigi's Farmers' Market at The Americana!

We're happy to announce our 2nd Farmers' Market spot for our Eastside friends.  Starting Saturday, April 23rd and every Saturday after that, we'll be at Gigi's Farmers' Market located on the South side of The Americana!  Look out for our booth and stop by to say hi!  We'll give more hugs out!

May 7-8 - Unique LA Spring Show

The largest independent design show in America.  And we're bringing our desserts!  Local designers bring their lovely wares and we get to feed the hungry shoppers!  We're honored to be a part of this wonderful event with a few other Artisanal LA alum.  It'll be a Clothing, Art, and Design spectactular!

Pre-sale and Door Tickets: $10

Hope to see you at one of the events. :)

XOXO,

Beautiful Weekend - Chockfull of News!

We hope everyone had a fantastic weekend.  The weather was super fantastic this weekend in Los Angeles.  Traffic, smog, potholes... you have nothing on our sunny days!  Spring forward if you haven't already.  While we lose 1 hour of sleep, we gain so much more daylight to enjoy the days activities after work.  WE LOVE THAT.

Speaking of more activities, we have a bunch of new news to share with you, our Crème Caramel LA loves:

First up, we're adding a second farmers' market!! Yahoo!!  Starting April 23rd - Saturdays, we'll be at the Glendale Americana - Gigi's Farmers' Market slangin our desserts for our Eastside friends.  We're super excited to be adding another vending date to our schedule.  Gigi's Farmer's Market is located in the Glendale Americana and is up and running 10am-2pm.  For our parentals out there, they have a petting zoo for the kiddies, and of course shopping, eats, and a movie theatre on site!  We'd love to see you strolling around with a cup of hot Caramelized Bacon Bread Pudding or a chilled treat of Coffee Crème Caramel.

We received the next bit of news on Friday evening and we COULD NOT wait to tell you today.  We just learned that we were accepted to participate at Unique LA's Spring Show!!  (YES, DOUBLE EXCLAMATIONS!)  Unique LA hosts the largest independent design show in the country (yes, the whole US o' A) that showcases local artists and designers and we get to share our treats at the event. :)  Event will be held in Downtown LA at the California Market Center's Penthouse, May 7-8 (your admission gives you access both days.)  Thanks to Sonja at Unique LA for the opportunity.  We're super excited!

We heart Artisanal LA.  We're giddy with excitement for the upcoming Artisanal LA Spring Show for the following three reasons: 1) all local food producers and artisans will be in one beautiful space showcasing their best and yummiest, 2) it's happening in less than month, April 16-17, and 3) Artisanal LA and Shawna (the event's founder) gave us the opportunity to officially launch our company at the Holiday Pop-Up and we had a FANTASTIC time !!! (TRIPLE EXCLAMATIONS!)  Whether you're a locavore, a mild-mannered food lover, or just a Hungry Hungry Hippo, like me, this show cannot be missed.  Restaurants, small businesses, and amazing chefs will be ready to amaze and tantalize you with their wonderful savories, sweets, and umami goodness.

We were lucky to be included with an amazing group of participants in the December show: Cast Iron Gourmet (makes our bacon for our Caramelized Bacon Caramel Bread Pudding - aka CBC), All Spice Cafe (spices, sauces, and more to make your mouth tingle!), Mothercluck (amazing jams and wonderful jellies), ViciVictual (sweet potato pie, YES!), Crust by Stephanie Jayne (amazing, AMAZING s'mores pie),  Morning Glory Confections (Bacon Fat Brittle, what?!!), San Angel Mole (Holy Mole.  Ok, I'm sorry that I went with the obvious. :) ), Flying Pie Man (sad our meat pies are in Mountain View, CA),  Get Your Lardon (Bacon? BACON!  Yes, there is a running theme.) , and many more awesome food artisans that make us smile.  Needless to say, it's going to be a pretty sweet (and savory - *ba-dum CRASH) time. (Oops, forgot to add Cold Brewand Cola.  Wish I had some right now.)

More info to follow on these (and hopefully more) events as we get closer to these dates.

Our sincerest and heartfelt thanks to all our supports - friends, family, and new friends and family.  Without you we would have a lot of bread pudding and crème caramel on our hands and no one to eat them.

We love you.

P.S GEEZ Spring Forward!!  I totally forgot to thank @GmasBakery, @DianaTakesABite, and @Tinabellera for stopping by yesterday!  <3s and :)s and thanks. :)

We're Back!

Not in a Poltergeist-y way, because that creeps us (me) out.  We're back like a fun game show that showcases desserts!  We're at Melrose Place Farmers Market, this Sunday, my friends.  And we can't wait to march with our Dessert Parade once again.

 

We'll have a small batch of two (COUNT 'EM, TWO!) off menu items available.  Make sure to ask what we have in our little stash.  :)  We've sold out during the previous two weeks, so we'll make sure to bake more, but get there early just in case.  Please and thank you!

Our dear amiga, MJ, sent us this pic of her "Oscar Party Pack" which highlighted all 6 of our desserts! (Original, Chocolate, and Cafe Crème Caramel, and Original, Chocolate, and Carmelized Bacon Caramel Bread Pudding)  We love her and the pic.  Thanks again for sharing and ordering!

It will be 71 and beautiful, this Sunday, so we hope to see your lovely faces.  If you're cruising by en route to enjoy the beautiful day, make sure to check out our Drive-By Desserting option.  (Tweet or email us 1/2 hour before pick-up, get a confirmation, and get your treats curbside!)

XOXO
