Donsuemor Cookies Review & GIVEAWAY

Starting with an original French recipe, Don and Susie Morris (DON-SUE-MOR) introduced madeleines to their Berkeley community in 1976. Donsuemor cookies are delicious and wholesome cookies and tea cakes, made with the finest all natural ingredients. It is the mission of Donsuemor to surprise and delight everyday with their desserts. You might have seen their cookies in some coffee shops or specialty stores.

Donsuemor started with Madeleines, an elegant french cake with a distinctive shell shape. Their line of cookies has since expanded into Chocolate Madeleines, Lemon Zest Madeleines, Chocolate Dipped Madeleines, French Almond Cakes and Chocolate and Vanilla Cute Cakes

Who doesn't love a tasty treat?? I was thrilled when I had the opportunity to try Donsuemor's line of cookies and tea cakes. I was even more exited when I received my package and saw all of the delicious goodness that came.
My two favorite (I had a hard time choosing just one!) treats were the Lemon Zest Madeleines and the Chocolate Cute Cakes. I love lemon desserts so the Lemon Zest Madeleines were an obvious choice. Both treats were moist and flavorful. The extra sprinkles topping on the Chocolate Cute Cakes made a nice crunch with the creamy icing. My mother in law was visiting and she had a chance to try Donsuemor's cookies as well. She really enjoyed the Madeleines and French Almond Cakes with her coffee in the mornings.

Miracles Missions by Pampers and $50 GC GIVEAWAY

In honor of their 50th birthday, Pampers has launched Miracles Missions, a pay-it-forward program delivering acts of kindness to little miracles and their families.

I had my third little miracle a short 6 weeks ago. I was blessed with so many wonderful friends who showered us with wonderful gifts, prepared meals and tons of diapers. Pampers have always been my diaper of choice. This new program is just another great thing about this product and company.

Pampers sent me a $50 American Express gift card and challenged me to perform a random act of kindness to celebrate a little miracle in my community. I knew right away what I wanted to do and for who. I have a wonderful friend who is having a high risk pregnancy. She has been on bedrest for quiet some time now and it's been difficult to do the simple things like making dinner for her family. To top it off, her husband was laid off a few months ago. He was lucky enough to find another job but his salary is not nearly what it used to be. I took this $50 gift card and purchased a box of Pampers diapers and made dinner for the family. The expressions on their faces was all the thanks needed knowing I helped some wonderful people by doing something so simple.

Pampers wants to challenge you to pay-it-forward for someone in your community. One Oh My Baby reader will WIN a $50 American Express gift card to make their pay-it-forward idea a reality. Leave your comment by 11:59 pm EST on Tuesday, May 24th. Good Luck!

Nutella Hazelnut Spread Review

About
Nutella is a tasty hazelnut spread that contains simple quality ingredients such as skim milk and a hint of cocoa.
Each jar 13 oz jar of Nutella contains more than 50 hazelnuts.
Nutella does not contain any hydrogenated oil or trans fat.
It is low in sodium compared to other popular nut butters.
Nutella contains no artificial colors or preservatives.

My family have been long time fans of Nutella. We eat it often on breads and graham crackers. It's one of our best options for J who has a peanut allergy. The spread does not contain peanuts or peanut ingredients, nor does the product come in contact with peanuts during manufacturing. Nutella spread is rich and creamy and tastes delicious.

We were thrilled when we had the opportunity to host a Nutella party. We recieved the following in our party kit
26.5oz Jar of Nutella® hazelnut spread
Nutella® spread sample packs and coupons for guests bags
Nutella® spread guest bags
Nutella® spread tumbler mugs
Nutella® spread spreader
Nutella® spread tip cards for guests Recipe ideas for your Nutella® Breakfast Bar Party activities: Everyday Breakfast Tips and Trivia

I took suggestions from the Nutella spread Breakfast Bar for my friends to try Nutella on different items. I had bagels, a variety of fresh fruit, crusty french bread, waffles, and tortillas. The overall favorites were Nutella dipped strawberries and the Nutella breakfast roll ups. The roll ups were super easy to make and delicious. Simply spread Nutella on a whole wheat tortilla and sprinkle with dried cherries and chopped apricots, roll up and eat. This can be done with a variety of fruit. I used cranberries in mine because I love them and already had a bag on hand. The tartness of the cranberries and sweetness of the Nutella made a fabulous combination! (Despite my terrible picture taking skills)

My friends were excited to receive a goodie bag of Nutella products when they were leaving. Their bags included sample packs of Nutella, coupons, spreaders, a tumbler mug and breakfast tips and info card.

You can find Nutella nationwide at grocery, mass merchandiser, warehouse and club stores. The suggested retail price is $3.49 for a 13 oz jar or $6.49 for a 26.5 oz jar. To learn more about Nutella visit www.nutellausa.com
