I am offering: a package of homemade and carefully packaged French macarons in the flavor of your choosing. (macarons are delicate meringue like cookies made with nut flour--usually almond, and filled with a buttercream, ganache, or caramel--combinations limited only by one's imagination. I can make suggestions if needed.)

examples (not made by me):

I've only had them in pastry shops or when I've made them. This is the third time I've heard about frozen ones, but I have never seen them for sale.

I am offering: a batch homemade vanilla sables (makes a lot of cookies)

Additional Info (optional): Sables are French butter cookies similar to shortbread, but with a slightly sandy texture. I use all organic ingredients. I worked as a professional baker after I finished my undergrad.

Starting Bid: $15 (I will pay shipping in the US/Canada or split overseas shipping)

I am offering: A care-package of New Orleans foods. You can pick your favorites, or I'll just put in a mix - pralines, king cake, beinet mix, chicory coffee, or anything else you can think of.

I'll ship within North America, or overseas for an additional $10 added to the winning amount.

Starting Bid: $5

You can see things I've created at:

I am offering: Homemade caramels, box of 40 pieces. All regular, all chocolate, or a mix of vanilla and chocolate. The caramels are soft, rich, and made from a Martha Stewart recipe.

Additional Info (optional): I can do 5 of these (a batch of regular and a batch of chocolate make about 200 pieces of candy). I've had a bad experience shipping food outside the US, so US residents only. I will pay shipping. Or I can do a larger package for someone, if they want more in the box- I guess it would really depend on the interest and which method will raise more?

Starting Bid: $5 for a box if doing 5 of 40 (or just do a flat rate of 10$ for the first five people?), or $15 for a box of 100?

If it's still being offered, I'd do the $15 for a box of 100, or I'll do the $10 for a regular box if that's what you're doing now....

I am offering: 3 dozen oatmeal peanut butter chocolate chip cookies (homemade) either full fat or with half the shortening replaced by applesauce. I've had people try to bang my door down when they knew I was making these (um, to get some, not to tell me to stop). beanpot and holdouttrout are among the many who can attest to the tastiness.

Additional Info (optional): Limited to the US and Canada due to shipping (I'll pay). I'll offer one to each of the top two bidders.

Starting Bid: $20
