Dolcielo Brownies

Filed under: Dining

Brownies are meant to be thick and fudgy, and while enjoyed by people of all ages, they are best loved by children. Dolcielo Brownies are brownies made with adults in mind, as they come in a variety of unusual, yet decadent, flavors in addition to their original dark chocolate, Divinia. Made with all-natural ingredients and the best quality chocolate, each of the flavors is built on the plain, dark base and is infused with liquors in addition to fruits and nuts. The flavors include apricot, pineapple, plum and cherry. The brownies pictured here are a limited edition called Elegrazia, which features a combination of cranberries, Triple Sec and walnuts. The brownies are $50 per dozen.

Doggie PhotoTreats

I've seen plenty of cakes and cookies that get pictures printed onto edible icing. They're a huge hit at birthday parties, weddings, etc. I've never seen the technique used on doggie treats before, but that is precisely what they do at My Dog's Bakery. Doggie PhotoTreats are customized with the name and photo of your dog on each biscuit. They come in Salmon and Roast Beef & Potato flavors, made using all-natural ingredients and the piped-on frosting includes carob, not chocolate. The pricing is $4 for one, $10 for 3 and $16 for 6. The bakery also mentions on their website that they plan to introduce doggie-friendly cakes.

Of course, the company says that the art is for your dog, but I think we can all agree that it's really for the owner. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but Fido cares more about the taste of the cookies than what they look like.

Black and Whites from Dean and Deluca

High on the list of things missed most by New Yorkers when they take up residence in another state is the Black and White Cookie. The cake-like consistency of the cookie and the smooth, sweet chocolate and vanilla icing combine to make one of the ultimate treats. As a gift for your favorite ex-New Yorker, or perhaps for yourself, consider getting a box of Dean & DeLuca's Black and Whites. Black and Whites tend to be huge, since New Yorker's like things big, but the Dean and Deluca cookies are normal sized and packed in a box that fits two dozen. The cookies are a perfect version of the New York classic - tasty as well as beautiful to look at. If you can't eat them all at once, they freeze beautifully, but if you invite a friend over to share them, you might not have any leftover. Price: $30.
