Holiday baking season is here and you will be amazed at the selection of sprinkles, sugars and jimmies at your local cake and candy supply store. I was taken to this marvelous "sugarland" called Heinrich's Decorating Nook by my friend Allison. She makes a run here every November to get the chocolate and peppermint crunch she needs for her holiday candy making. When she mentioned her pilgrimage to me, I jumped at the chance to go with her and see this sugar supply store for myself. Now I am a part of her annual trip and last week was my 5th year going with her. We wander up and down every aisle and have a wonderful time imagining all the varieties of candy we could make. In the end we always settle on our now-famous toffee. December 18th is the big day this year and I am really looking forward to having her over for a fun day of toffee making.
Want to find your own sugarland? Google: "(Your Town), cake decorating" and you will see a list of options in your area. You won't be disappointed - the selection is greater and the prices are better than any grocery (or craft) store where you might be tempted to shop for cake and candy decorations. Have some fun!

There's a cake and candy decorating store not far from my house that I discovered last year. Such a fun place to visit!
