Sunday Coffee and ummm were those Muffins?

My parnter creates recipes for companies and restraurants, many times using their exclusive products. 99.9% of time he makes heavenly treats that would make the angels sing.

He just got done working with a cheese cake company that wanted several different kinds of cheese cakes created for their own use. The Orange Dream Smoothie Cheese Cake and the Espresso (made with Bello Montana of course!) were my two favs.

That .1% of the time will scar you for life. Usually the food combinations are requested by the client - and sometimes they aren't very good choices.... Recent horrors include an eggnog and coffee mixture, a weird sour cream and jalapeno nut mixture (yep that's what the client wanted - he eventually worked some magic and made something that worked using the client's jalapenos. This morning, I was his guinea pig for some truly bizarre muffins.

I don't even know what to call them, this lady that grows edible lavendar wanted him to make some lavendar muffins for her as she had no luck - this was the first batch and let me put it this way, our cat Oliver who will eat ANYTHING including habanero peppers, wasabi and lettuce wouldn't touch them.....

Fortunately - i had a full pot of Espresso on hand to get the taste of whatever those were supposed to be out of my mouth - ick.

Well and speak of the devil, he's calling me to come test batch number 3, these at least smell good.
Off to see if they have made the 99.9%!
