One of our friends recently moved to Phoenix from New Mexico to undergo a bone marrow transplant.  She is a two time breast cancer survivor and recently found out she has Leukemia.  She arrived in the Valley a few weeks before her treatments were to begin so she could get settled in, and we had the privilege of spending some quality time with her.

It was a sea of green at the Fairytale Brownies bakery today. Not only did we wear green, we held a guacamole contest - which of course, is green!

But before we ate our guacamole, we had to work up our appetites with a treasure hunt. This morning, our brownie guy (today he is a leprechaun) hid a dozen pots of gold throughout our bakery. Each team member was given 12 clues to find each of them.

Here is an example of one of the clues: Decisions, decisions, but no need to be stressed. Comfort is...

Mail Order Brownies - Behind The Scenes

Monday, November 1, 2010 by David Kravetz
A couple of weeks ago we had a photo shoot for our Spring/Summer 2011 Fairytale Brownies catalogs.  We print our catalogs twice a year - once in August for the fall catalogs, and once in December for the Spring/Summer catalogs.  A few months before the catalogs are printed we shoot the photography for all the new products, and also the catalog covers.  This year our graphic designer Erin Kress had the idea of taking a photo of a woman serving a plate of fudgy chocolate brownies.  And she thought...Read More » »
