French Macarons my way
I thought I've give these a whirl today.  These are guava macarons.
I don't normally like these as the are sooooooo sweet. My filling is strawberry guava cream.
I need to perfect these of course.



Lemon Verbena Champagne Loaf
 
I have this recipe for a Lemon Buttermilk Bundt cake.
 
I cut the recipe in half and made it with my C and H Stevia Light for baking
that I process with Lemon Verbena that I grow.
 
I used some Sparkling Wine extract that I buy from Loran Oils and voila.
