Okay, Jeff is being a major wiener today, so I haven't gotten to bake as much as I wanted, but I do have a batch of nummies in the oven right now.

Becca, I'm still trying to come up with something for Ms. Ella. I'm thinking something along the lines of salmon and sweet potato, I just have to figure out a way to make it "hold" together without flour.

PW, I've got Izzy's little treats cooking right now. If she likes them, I shall call them Izzy Bitty Bites.

I should have enough stuff made by tomorrow to send out a few samplers to those that have PM'd me.

Nikki, PM me and let me know what things you do know Buddy can't have as far as ingredients go. We'll figure something out.

 

[Chewbecca]

oooh!
You could might try potato flour to hold the treats together? She can have potato.
Does Ella get to sample some of the fishy ones when they are made??
They sound like they'll be awesome!
Thanks for thinking of Mz Ella.

 

[jess2416]

Thanks. Maybe Chloe can be a taste-tester.

Chloe would love that...

 

[CharlieDog]

That sounds like a great idea! And I LOVE the "Izzy Bitty Bites!"

Oz and Enzo volunteer as taste testers, lol!

Okie doke, problem solved. We'll use potato flour. And yes, she gets to be a taste tester. After all, they'll be named after her, so she has to approve them first.

Jess, Chloe will get to sample some noms too.

 

[MyHorseMyRules]

Sounds like a great idea! Raja and the hooverdog, Tempie, would love to help out!

 

[shadowfacedanes]

I've got a new batch cooking up now. Apple-cinnamon for those that have a thing for fruit like Hannah does. I made some of these in dinosaur shapes. RAWR.

I'm having so much fun.

(Jess, you're going to have to come over some day and do this with me!)

 

[RedyreRottweilers]

How bout me me me?? We will buy cookies.

How are you doing, feeling a lot better?

Feeling loads better. I'm sore now, but it's more like a "stuff is healing" kind of sore instead of an "OMG they cut me to pieces" sore.

And you are more than welcome to come over and sample treats (well, the canine kids unless you just like trying dog treats too ) and buy some if they're a hit.

 

[RedyreRottweilers]

whaddya mean, if they're a hit? We are talking Rottweilers here. 4 footed garbage disposals. They would eat them if they had sh1t frosting.

LMAO!

:rofl1::rofl1::rofl1:

That's one recipe I won't be searching for.

Really???
Can you name them "The Ella Nom-Nom Fishy Bites"?
Or "The Ella 'I can haz Nom-Nom Fishy Bites, NOM!' Bites"?

I'm glad you are feeling better! You are on the mend!

Ahhhhh! I love it!

 

[Zoom]

This is a FABULOUS idea, SFD! How do you think 3DB got started--a cookie cutter, taste testers and some recipe ideas. I think you'll do awesome at this, especially considering the fact you are so well aware of special dietary needs.

In fact, once I get my store up and running, I would be very interested in carrying these if you would be interested in that angle.

Sure!

Okay, after some baking, here's a few sneak peeks at the goodies.

Bacon Parmesan:

Here's the Izzy Bitty Bites and the other sizes of the training sized snacks. (The longer bar was just me using up a small amount of leftover dough.)
And sorry, it was late so picture quality sucks due to poor lighting.

Here's the Hannah sized treats...lol....she loves these.

Here's the batch of the apple cinnamon noms. They smell SO good, Jeff tried one. (All my snacks are human grade, so Jeff is my guinea pig, lol).

******one more****

 

[shadowfacedanes]

Here's a close up of the Apple Cinnamon Dinobites:

That's like, easily, my favorite cookie cutter right now.

***done w/ pics for now***

 

[Buddy'sParents]

Bella and Banzai would probably love the apple cinnamon, that is a new favorite this year. I'll PM you a list of things Buddy can have. Thanks so much.

ETA:

We started to give the Three B's breakfast again, but Buddy doesn't really need a breakfast. If you could make a bar/cookie Hannah sized for him that would ROCK so he could get a treat when the other two get breakfast! You are going to be so successful. I'll just forward you my paychecks, lol.

Hooroay

I will I will

 

[Renee750il]

Oh, now you have to make Snarkasaurus treats with THAT cookie cutter :rofl1:

 

[shadowfacedanes]

Okay, for those who wanted taste testings, please PM me your addresses. I hope to be able to send some out today.

For cost purposes, I will probably send them in a padded envelope instead of fancy packaging right now. After all, this is for tasting purposes instead of asthetics this go round, so if they get broken in transit, sowwy. If you order in the future, they'll be shipped in more secure packaging, I'm just taking the cheap route this time since I'm out of work at the moment and not raking in the cash, lol.

*IF* anyone wanted to paypal me a dollar or two for the shipping cost, I wouldn't complain. Dont' feel obligated though, I'm going to send out samples either way.

Becca and Nikki - I'll be going today to get the special supplies for Ella and Buddy's snacks. I've got a few ideas for the both of them and I'll let you know how they turn out.
