5.  An assortment of mini desserts from Pudgy Girl Bakery.  A good hostess gift should be for the host or hostess themselves to enjoy after the guests depart, not something to contribute to the overall spread.  Everything is vegan and delicious. Most items are gluten free.   A 1/2 dozen of truffles for $15.00 (variety pack) and/or a 4 cheesecake sampler for $15.00. Order by phone (585) 203-2894 or email [email protected]
