Herst!

Het is eindelijk Herfst!

Going to switch over to English because I am afraid of making too many mistakes. After 17 years in Holland there is as much of a chance that I will make a mistake in English. Here it goes!

This time of the year is best defined by the Dutch word GEZELIG! The exact meaning is not to be translated in English because it is a feeling that encompasses all the senses. The word that comes the closest is cozy.

Fall is one of Sugar Mama's favorite times of the year! The weather turns just as do the colors in the trees forcing us indoors to keep warm by the fire with something hot to drink and, of course, something sweet to eat. The fall brings with it the delightful taste of pumpkin (pompoen) which is used in the muffins as well as the cheesecakes. Apples take center stage at this time of year as well in the muffins mixed with walnuts and raisons...YUM! Also making the yearly comback is the vanilla cheesecake topped with cranberries and white chocolate. Check out the "verkoop punten" on the website for locations selling Sugar Mama products or contact us if you are planning a celebration and want something special to serve your guests.

October is a month that spotlights one of the charities closest to my heart, Pink Ribbon, which focuses on breast cancer research. Buitenpoort Catering held a fund raiser in the Westerbouwing located in Oosterbeek and ordered Sugar Mama goodies for the event. See the attached foto.

Halloween is also celebrated in October...the 31st to be exact! Halloween parties are the most fun whether you are throwing one or attending one. Sugar Mama is always in for a good scare in the form of something sweet. Contact us for all the bewitching options!
