We sell those little yellow seeds in our shop. They are absolutely delicious! Candy coated chocolate covered sunflower seeds. Wonderful for flowers, no wonder Martha likes those ;o)

I just adore Violet’s and feel so lucky to be from Pasadena. They were a great choice to provide the cupcakes for our wedding (in five different flavors) as well as a small topper layer cake. Their work was not only gorgeous but also fantastically delicious! Their french toast cupcake is my absolute favorite.
