I am SO excited!!!

I’m changing my format this week because I couldn’t ignore the GREAT specials that Demarle is offering in November. I am REALLY excited about them! There are some amazing deals and if you have been waiting to buy, now is a great time!

The Christmas Tree, Little Chef, Puppy Lovers, and Mini Briochette Trays are all on sale for $44.95! That is a $9.00 Savings on each tray!! Also the Tree Mold is on sale for $26.95 (reg price $33.95).

Then lets talk about the Gathering of Friends Cookbooks. WOW!! They are amazing cookbooks that are not only filled with wonderful, easy recipes but also table scapes, tips and ideas for entertaining. They are truly worth every penny! This month any two are $60.00. Considering these just became available in July, I can hardly believe they already put them on sale. Below are several recipes from them for you to sample. Yummy!

The Holiday Bakers Kit!! My favorite item for sale this month! It include the Mini Tartlet tray with 48 shapes, the beachwood rolling pin, and the Square-Roul’Pat. This is a great opportunity to get these amazing products at a $31.90 savings!!

If you have children or grandchildren that love to cook, then you must buy the Kids Can Cook Too Kit, it includeds the Magnetic Measuring Trio, Beachwood Rolling Pin, and the Mini Roul’Pat. Kids are never too young to start helping out in the kitchen and this gives them their own tools to use!

It’s hard to believe the holidays are almost upon us, but they are here! I am so excited to be able to share all of the wonderful Demarle products with you and so….drum roll please…..I am going to offer a SPECIAL of my own!
I LOVE the set of three spatulas! They are something I think is amazing and I use them ALL THE TIME! I am offering FREE shipping on as many sets as you want to buy! You will not be disappointed and you will want at least two for yourself.

Here is a testimonial from one of my customers, she left this message on my answering machine, “I just wanted to call and tell you how fabulous those utensils are that I have and I am going to need a second set!”

Yes, they really are that great! So, treat yourself and remember they make great stocking stuffers!
