Easter Offerings from Otis Spunkmeyer

March 28, 2017




Spring has sprung and Easter is just weeks away. Every bunny loves to have something sweet in their Easter basket. Otis Spunkmeyer offers great tasting snacks with no funky stuff. They currently offer 17 different treats in a yummy line of cookies, cakes and muffins. We were delighted to learn they will be launching the Strawberry Frosted Crème Cakes in April.




Where we live in Georgia strawberry season is just getting started. While the season is short for these delicious berries we like to enjoy the juicy sweetness as long as we can. So, I guess you know we can all get a little excited about enjoying the flavor longer. We were tickled to receive an advanced preview of Strawberry Frosted Crème Cakes. Strawberry Frosted Crème Cakes is a delicate pink cake with all the sweetness you could imagine.


Otis Spunkmeyer cookies, cakes and muffins would make the perfect addition to your easter basket happening. They are perfectly portioned and individually packaged. 

Strawberry Frosted Crème Cakes(coming April 2017)
Golden yellow cake, strawberry frosting and sweet strawberry filling; Strawberry Frosted Créme Cakes are the perfect size treats with a smile baked into every bite!

Frosted Golden Crème Cake
How do you make a fluffy golden cake filled with vanilla sweet crème even better? Not sure what you’d do, but we’d add a thick layer of vanilla icing with just a hint of lemon.
Cinnamon Crumb Loaf Cake
Yes, we know that the delicious, crumbly, cinnamon streusel in our coffee cake layer gets all the attention. But we’ve embedded it on a buttery, vanilla cake that is at least it's equal.
Iced Lemon Loaf Cake
Sometimes you want a moist, delicious snack cake. Sometimes you want to eat something refreshing. Well, with a lemon loaf cake topped with tangy lemon flavored icing, you can have both.


Did you know that Otis Spunkmeyer treats only have a 30-day self-life? That's right, these delights don't sit around! That's why they are so much fresher than all the others.There are currently 17 varieties offered for your snacking pleasure.

The cookies are huge and whimsically cute in design. The cookies are a buttery signature shortbread recipe with just a hint of vanilla and are hand-decorated with a delicious candy-like vanilla royal icing. The cookies are baked fresh daily in Syracuse, NY....can you even begin to imagine how heavenly it smells there?

About them
As a kid growing up in Syracuse, New York, Tina Corso loved baking cookies. She loved creating art, from selling t-shirts to painting clay pots and, of course, decorating cookies to share with friends and family. Being a smart cookie, Tina decided to open a small hand-decorated cookie company in 2001 to blend her passion for baking and art into a business.
From a humble beginning creating uniquely cool, hand-decorated cookie gifts out of her home, her customers were initially attracted by how beautiful the buttery shortbread cookies were decorated, like edible works of art. After tasting them, folks clamored for more and told their friends about Corso's Cookies. In 2008 she got her first order of 200,000 cookies and from there the new business was born. Today we are the largest manufacturer of decorated cookies in North America and ship across the nation!
Corso’s Cookies makes the gift giving experience fun and easy for our customers by providing gifts for every occasion and sending these to their loved one’s gift-packaged. Every cookie is peanut free, kosher, and individually wrapped so mothers can rest assure our cookies are a safe treat for their children! Our cookies are baked with our buttery shortbread cookie recipe and decorated with a delicious vanilla royal icing. Yum!
Our most popular items are our Cookie Bouquets that are a novel twist to a bouquet of flowers. We also have other gifts including cookie gift boxes, gourmet gifts with a variety of decadent desserts, and cookie favors that add a special touch to any party. We take pride in the passion and love that goes into baking our cookies.

Chef's Vision knives



As a blogger sometimes I receive a product that makes me say...."WOW"! That was my reaction when I opened the Chef's Vision Knives. They are truly a work of art and seem too pretty to use. Every since I received them I have been looking for a way to display them in my kitchen as a work of art. We are currently in the process of remodeling out kitchen. I keep thinking is it wrong to want redesign your kitchen around a knife set? Just know our kitchen will include a magnetic strip. Since the blades are made from stainless steel it will make them easy to display. Each scene on the knives looks like a painting and the colors are bold and vibrant. Not only are these knives beautiful, they are also very SHARP. The knives also have a comfortable weight to them and are well balanced.

New ChapStick® DUO makes the perfect addition to your Easter basket. These are a perfect size and shape to be included in your new must-have for spring. My family absolutely loves the ChapStick® brand. I, for one, am very picky about what I use on my lips. I can not stand to use a product that is oily and heavy. ChapStick® DUO gives my lips everything they need with up to 8 hours of hydrating moisturization. I can feel it going to work on my lips as soon as I apply it and I don't need to reapply it every 30 minutes. The flavors and scents are also new and different. They really stand out and since the packaging is bigger it's easier to find. I dunno about you but I don't think I have every used all of a lip product because I misplace it, not an issue are all with the DUO. The Sweet Peach & Vanilla Shimmer is a dream to me. I could be a little biased since I am from Georgia and we are the peach state. The scent is so sweet and smells just like a peach.

Choconut by Java Factory Roasters



Who added the chocolate and the coconut and put it in our coffee cup? Java Factory Choconut, of course! I admit, I was worried about the flavor of this coffee because chocolate is just one of those hit or miss things in my book. But from working with this company the past few months, I have learnt to expect the unexpected!


So far all the coffees I have tried from Java Factory have wowed me in their flavors. I have yet to try one that had that synthetic flavor. I drink lots of coffee daily...who am I kidding...HOURLY. Java Factory Choconut has a mellow flavor that is not over the top. The flavor of the coffee really shines with just a hint of the chocolate and coconut. I have tried this blend both hot and over ice and really enjoyed it. Mind you, I do like a little flavored creamer with my cup of goodness! The rich tones and full flavor are wonderful mixed with some sweet cream!

Realtree Xtra Dark Roast Coffee

March 17, 2017



Get ready to camouflage your coffee with Realtree Xtra Dark Roast Coffee. Being from Georgia, camouflage is a lifestyle for us, so the next step had to be coffee. Realtree is a brand my family knows a lot about but I will admit I had no clue Realtree had ventured into the coffee market. Realtree makes quality products, I can't think of a better match than with  Two Rivers Co.

I am the first one to admit I am not a morning person at all. I like to stay up late binge watching tv series and sleep in the next day. During the summer months that might be all well and good, but not when I have 3 children to get ready for school. I was really excited to find out I would be reviewing the Realtree Xtra Dark Roast Coffee. I have never purchased a dark roast coffee in my life. Most days my "coffee' is more creamer than coffee. So a coffee that could possibly kick my butt into gear was kinda scary. Working with Two Rivers Coffee the past few month I have come to enjoy different blends. 
The first thing I noticed about this box was how well packaged it was. I loved seeing the camouflage on the box and on the K-Cups. Dare I say it was cute? Yes, yes...I know it should be manly and remind me of hunting. When I opened the box I could already smell the coffee...oh look there is that cute camo again! When I started brewing my first cup the smell of coffee filled my kitchen. I giggle because I can hear my dad's voice in my head saying, "That coffee will put hair on your chest!" The coffee is dark and very robust in flavor. I tried it first black but quickly learned I like mine with a little southern pecan creamer. This coffee is perfect for anyone that likes their coffee on the bold, dark side. It's surely going to put a pep in your step and get you prepared for the day. It's a great coffee to brew over ice because it keeps that good strong coffee flavor and does not become watered down by the ice.

You want a high-octane coffee that works all season long? Well, here it is. Just like our amazingly lifelike Realtree all-season camo, this Extra Bold coffee will have you covered in any situation. With an incredible depth of flavor, it’s a robust dark roast that's perfect for drinking through all seasons."
  • Compatible with all Keurig machines - Including new 2.0 brewers.
  • Extra fresh grounds that filter brewed with 100% premium Arabica coffee beans.
  • Perfectly roasted & perfectly ground for the perfect cup of coffee.
  • Rich tasting coffees--inspired by the gear we love most. Brew up a cup and get out there.
  • Crafted with pride in the USA.
