Michele's Foods Gourmet Honey Creme Syrup

I personally find maple syrup to be too heavy and too sweet for me…hence why I hardly use it. The Gourmet Honey Creme Syrup is sweet but it’s a different type of sweetness. It’s light, not heavy. My family has been using the Michele’s Foods Gourmet Honey Creme Syrup in all of the ways that I listed above (and then some) and absolutely love it!  You can use it on everything as it’s very versatile. You can use it straight out of the bottle at room temperature, chilled or lightly warmed-up in your microwave oven. We’ve tried it all 3 ways. It’s one of those condiments that every home needs! If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re really missing out!

My top 3 ways of enjoying it are: as a dipper for chicken strips, as a dipper for soft pretzels and drizzled over homemade pancakes. YUMMY GOOD!

Need a gift for that foodie on your list? Looking to gift something exciting for them to try? If so, Michele’s Gourmet Honey Creme Syrup is a great gift idea for that hard-t0-buy-for foodie on your list.

Painted Ice Cream Cones Clam Shells Seashell Designs

Last month my daughter threw an ice cream party at her home. She had 6 different flavors of ice cream available, a dozen toppings, waffle cones, sugar cones, whipped cream and various fresh fruits. Guests could make their own ice cream cones, sundaes, milk shakes or banana splits. Everyone had a lot of fun coming up with their own unique creations.

Painted Ice Cream Cones Clam Shells Seashell Designs

I made these hand painted ice cream cones from 4″ wide clam shells that I collected from the beach. You want to wash them in warm soapy water with Dawn Liquid Dish Soap, rinse with clean water and air dry. I recommend using Dawn because it’s the best at removing fine sand particles, debris and fishy odors.

Cone: I mixed 2 colors of acrylic paint together… a metallic gold and a light tan. I love the “metallic” finish and the unique color. I used 2 coats to make the cone. Once that is dry…I used a white fine-tip Acrylic Paint Marker to make the criss-cross pattern. Highly recommend the BETEM Acrylic Paint Markers that I purchase from Amazon.

You can make the ice cream any color that you would like. I used light pink, brown, hot pink, vanilla, etc. You’ll need 2 coats of paint to get good coverage across the top of the seashell. Let dry.

To add the multi-colored sprinkles I used the fine-tip on Acrylic Paint Markers. Just make a thin-slash-line to represent sprinkles in a variety of colors. You can add a faux cherry on the top too! Let all of the paint dry.

You need to seal-in the paint to protect it from chipping, colors from fading, etc. by brushing on 1-2 light coats of Clear Glossy Mod Podge Sealer. I like to use a foam brush when applying it. Let dry for 3-5 hours. It will dry crystal clear.
