Our mothers taught us that it’s polite to bring along something special when going to someone’s house. You might call it a “hostess gift,” but no matter the host or occasion, we just call it sweet. Whether you’re going to a Champagne-filled New Year’s Eve bash or an indulgent New Year’s Day brunch, we’ve rounded up a few things that any host would be happy to have.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Whisper Cake<\/a> – While it’s not an official holiday item<\/a>, this\u00a0popular cake with it’s fruit-filled layers would pair nicely with a glass of Champagne.<\/p>\n

2. Holiday Tart<\/a> – Filled with cranberries, pecans, orange zest and caramel, this tart makes for a tasty treat any time of day.<\/p>\n

3. Brown Sugar Shortbread Holiday Cookies<\/a> – Cut into stars and adorned with crystal sugar, these cookies will bring a touch of sparkle to the party.<\/p>\n

4. Sardinian Flatbread with a savory spread<\/a> – In addition to our Roasted Artichoke Spread (pictured), we have a variety of seasonal spreads that pair perfectly with our Sardinian Flatbread.<\/p>\n

5. Cassata Cake<\/a> – Chocolate lovers swoon for our Cassata Cake (pictured) and gluten-free Mini Gianduja. Both desserts are loaded with rich chocolate flavor, but our Mini Gianduja is a triple-threat with chocolate espresso, chocolate hazelnut and chocolate ganache!<\/p>\n

6. Budapest Coffee Cake Ring<\/a> – Our classic sour cream coffee cake laced with a\u00a0swirl of cinnamon, cocoa, brown sugar, raisins and toasted walnuts makes a great brunch addition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
