Little Flower Candy Company is a tiny cafe and candy kitchen in Pasadena with the best selection of handmade treats perfect for stuffing stockings. Last week I stopped by for lunch with Joanne and picked up a few homemade treats!
Personally, I would be perfectly happy to find my Christmas stocking stuffed to the brim with these freshly made Peppermint Marshmallows or a bunch of homemade ribbon candy!
The saying kid in a candy shop comes to mind...
Because all gifts are better when they're edible, Little Flower as candy ornaments as well. Just try to make them last until Christmas, I dare you.
Joanne ordered the Kale salad and I ordered a slice of the daily quiche (not shown). At Little Flower it's best to eat light and save room for lots of dessert! Today's dessert was a giant chewy ginger molasses cookie and, my very favorite, a honey lavender scone. Little Flower...if you are reading this...I would do anything for that scone recipe! For real.

Hi Joni! I mixed two reds for this shoot: Mac, So Chaud lipstick (which is an orange red) and Mac, Russian Red lipglass on top (cool red). The result was this shade! 😉
