Fresh out of the oven and ready for Saturday morning. One new bread this week as an experiment: a sandwich loaf made with milk and a touch of cream in the dough. We're looking forward to seeing how the texture holds up over the next couple days. Stop by Ashland to try a sample.

I decided to have some fun and fill our Tanguitos with "Dubai Chocolate" filling, and blend of pistachio cream and crispy shredded phyllo dough.
The hardest part was not eating the filling by the spoonful before the chocolate shells were ready to fill.

Dulce Framingham will be open from about Noon-8 pm, because Stephanie really wants to worked and insisted that I let her open.
So, if you need a treat on New Years Day, stop by and say hello to Stephanie!

So many cakes over the past few weeks. I don't publish these often because they're a lot of work and I have limited time. Fortunately, Hanaa and Tere have stepped up and helped with more of the daily cakes so I have a bit more time to complete these.

Cookie Buffet!
Kudos to Beth Reynolds for coming up with this idea for a meeting of 30 people at Dulce Ashland today.

This cake was a bit of work...

Happiness in a bowl....fresh batch of chicken breast in Thai red curry. I find it hard to resist just drinking the sauce when the chicken and onion are gone!

Spread the word, Dulce Framingham is hiring. Of course, it is a bonus if you are also able to help out in Ashland sometimes. Unfortunately, we do need someone who is at least 18 due to the need to work alone once trained. We can't legally allow a minor to work unsupervised.

The fresh individual quiche just came out of the Ashland oven. We'll have a bunch in Framingham later this afternoon.

It just feels like a strawberry shortcake kind of day...rich buttery cake sliced thinly, freshly sliced strawberries, and fresh whipped cream with a touch of vanilla.

Anna keeps telling me that people have been calling for chicken pies all week. Ryan is working on it. They should be arriving in Framingham Friday afternoon.

Oops! We sold out of mini fruit pies faster than usual at the Ashland Farmer's market and the Framingham store this morning. Baking a fresh batch for Framingham. Should be there by 3 pm.

My first full sized Torte Rogel. I made a mini yesterday for Albie of Che Empanada to give me feedback before sending this one out the door...she dubbed it perfect.
I was introduced to this dessert by my friends Carlos and Eugenia about 12 years ago and it had faded from memory until a customer requested it for his wife's birthday. Crisp cracker/cookies separated by Dulce de Leche and finished with toasted meringue. Assembled the day it is to be served so the cookies don't get too soft.
I may make a few mini's for the Ashland Farmer's market Saturday morning.

Jules current lunch obsession: prosciutto with brie and fig jam on toasted brioche, open face.

Pulled pork is back in the grab-n-go freezers at Dulce along with a fresh batch of our Steak, Mushroom, Onion, and Gruyere ( SMOG) pies. Keeping dinners simple and delicious!
The roasted onions and de-fatted pan juices in the video are used in making the homemade sauce for our pulled pork.

Lion King cake for 50 servings. I can thank the little tip I learned at all those paint nights Sam used to drag me too....ok, they were fun since she was there.

Dulce D Leche is looking for Customer Service reps to work various shifts in the Framingham and Asland locations.
For Framingham especially, we need someone 18 or older due since they will work alone at times. We can't legally or ethically leave a minor in charge of the store.
This does require some evening and weekend shifts.
Responsibilities include making coffees panini, chocolate boxes, and scooping gelato. Response also include keeping the store clean, and of course, creating a friendly and welcoming experience for our customers.

Nitro Cold Brew on Tap
We just got a new keg of nitro cold brew in Ashland.....it's creamy and delicious. Of course, we still always have our house-made cold brew with a 24-hour steep. Both are richly flavored and loaded with caffeine to perk you up on those rough mornings.
Bubbling pies

Deep dish pizza from the deck oven
Weighing in at just over 6 pounds, this cheese pizza is as delicious as it is filling. That's nearly 3-times the amount of food in a traditional large cheese pizza....just in case you're having trouble keeping those teenagers full.
Bakery Cafe, lactose-free luxurious gelato, and insanely good chocolates
Speciallizing in delicious hand-crafted foods, pastry, and desserts, Dulce D Leche Ashland was built to produce and share all of the awesome products we’ve created in Framingham over the past three years......and all those we wished we had time and space to produce.
GALACTOSE tastes better! Our lactose-free dairy gelato get’s reviews putting it up against the top gelato’s in the world. Why? First, breaking lactose creates a new sugar (galactose) with a deliciously unique sweetness that people love.....and can’t get any other way. Of course, people with lactose sensitivity can eat this without the discomfort of eating ordinary dairy.
Our Bakery is focused on delicious. Our top sellers are the tres leches cake topped with dulce de leche caramel, and the tiramisu. We keep a variety of small chocolate, vanilla, carrot, mousse, and flourless cakes in our grab-n-go for that last minute birthday cake or visit with a friend. You can also find freshly filled cannoli, cheesecakes, dessert cups and pies. Call or email for availability. Finally, we produce our own croissant dough, cinnamon rolls, cookies and breads.
We strive for world-class chocolates.....and many of our customers agree! While the trend has been to make cream truffles with flavor pastes or extracts and fancy decoration, we have focussed on uniquely delicious fillings. We begin with high quality chocolate, clarified butter, de-scented coconut oil, and pure nut butters to craft fillings that are firm, but quickly soften and melt in your mouth. Flavors include local honey and maple syrup, chai latte from freshly boiled spices, grand marnier with orange peel oil, Irish whiskey with freshly brewed espresso, and more. Our flavors are more traditional, but we focus on perfection of texture and intensity of flavor. To experience the full range of flavors, we recommend keeping each bite in your mouth for at least 10 seconds, just like tasting a fine wine.
We have two classes of chocolate bar: classic and bean-to-bar. The “classic” have blends of French chocolate either alone or paired with inclusions like ground toffee, soft caramel, and peppermint oil in white chocolate ganache. Our marzipan has a touch of grit, just like my favorite shop in Belgium, because we start with almond flour, sugar, almond extract, and rose water....not corn syrup. The bean-to-bar chocolates are made in house, starting from genetically diverse strains of cacao grown the Caribbean and Latin America. They open a whole new range of flavors for the chocolate lover.
