A Chic Affair Petit Fours

“Green & So Delish: Treet Bakery” by Janice Wallace, Editor of The Bridal Wishlist

I recently had the pleasure of attending “A Chic Affair” last Sunday at the Longview Gallery in D.C. It truly was a chic affair. One of the most memorable vendors was Treet Bakery. I sampled the most delish mini cupcakes, as well as, one of their delightful Pretty Petty Petit Fours.

What was more amazing was Theresa’s (Treet’s Chief Sweetness Officer) commitment to incorporating green practices in her baking by using fresh ingredients from local farms. In addition, Treet packages their goodies in 100% recycled and/or compostable packaging, deliver their “treets” in a hybrid vehicle, and will soon work in an office that will run on clean wind power. For me, Treet Bakery puts its money where its mouth is. That’s my kind of bakery.

To find our more about Treet or just to order goodies for your stash, visit their web site.

Thanks to Katie for allowing me to sit in while she is working hard to make this world a better place. You can see what I am blogging about weekdays on my blog, The Bridal Wishlist. Have a great weekend!

I love a good guest in the Treet  kitchen! 

For the past few weeks we have been practically hosting our own baking club.  I’ve truly enjoyed all the positive baking enthusiasm amidst the ovens! 

First, our beloved intern from Field School spent 2 weeks learning the tricks of Treet!  If you have never asked a 16 year old their insight on your business, you are missing out!  Yes, what they have to say may have you wishing you could revert back to high school and stuff yourself in a locker. However in the end their youth, social “in-ness”, and honest point of view is completely refreshing.  My intern was particularly brilliant, and I believe you will all soon be catching a glimpse of some of her thoughtfulness on our website. 

Next, we were visited by a very talented blogger from The ModernDomestic.  Not only could she whip up some sweet brownie bites; she was a pleasure to chat “shop” with.  She was also kind enough to post about our visit, “Theresa Luongo Pineilli Serves Up Some Tasty Treats at Treet“!

Ya’ll come back soon now ya hear!

Theresa Pinelli of Treetshop.com sells baked goods, including some standout brownies ($2.50) and large pecan crescents (75 cents).

Check out Treet’s owner (yours truly) showcasing our sweets at the Bethesda Central Farmer’s Market last weekend in The Washington Post (page E4) Wednesday, January 13th, 2010- http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/photo/2010/01/12/PH2010011200805.html

Congratulations to Ashlee from Chantilly Academy for selecting Treet’s new Mini Cupcake flavor…drum roll please…..Mocha Chocolate Chip!!!  There are sooooo many perks to this new flavor – coffee, chocolate chunks, vanilla…who needs Starbucks?  Jk- I still need my caffeine fix too!
