Edinburgh Is Sa-weet!

1 • Hanging out with Sara of Suki Bakes at the Edinburgh Chocolate Festival

2 • The best hot chocolate in the world (orange, chili, clove) at Love Crumbs

3 • Nutan at her Bollywood Coffee Box during Diwali, plating up her home-made gulabjamun

4 • The plum cake at Bon Papilion

5 • The palate cleanser (ooolala) at Wedgewood

6 • The Bircher muesli at Falko Konditormeister

For someone who has been trying to cut sugar out of her diet, I’ve done a swell job. Darn you, sweet tooth! Foiled in Edinburgh on every corner. . . but it’s sooo worth it.

Dear Cath,

I thought this would be a good post to squeeze in right before Thanksgiving — get your taste buds prepped for feasting. Hope you have a fun short work week! Are you Black Friday shopping? I’ve always been such a weenie when it comes to that stuff — and too much in a Peking Duck haze to want to shop (good thing I have your prezie already).

I’ll be back in wifi land by Friday evening. Skype date?

xoxoxox,

Lar

    Isn’t it so funny that you got the sweet tooth? I mean, all those photos look amazing, but I’ll take cheese and fries over that any day (as I’m writing this, I’m eating a egg and cheese biscuit, oy).

    Also, I’ve been to 3 out of the six places you’ve mentioned! Next time I’m in Edinburgh visiting you, you’ll have to take me to Love Crumbs and Wedgewood and tell Sara I can help be a taste tester for her creations.

    For the record, I will not be black friday shopping, but I will be Small Business Saturday shopping that following day!

    Can wait to hear all about your Thanksgiving trip. Skype me as soon as you get back!!!

    xoxo, Cath

    I don’t even like sweets, and I’m so totally craving some now. The hot chocolate looks so decadent and real chocolate-y. I’ve been wanting some REAL, thick hot chocolate for a very long time now, and Starbucks just doesn’t cut it!
