So I've been getting into these Potent Extracts from Medicine Flowers that are available for purchase over at
The Raw Food World. So far I have the Dark Chocolate, Guava, and Caramel flavors. I'm waiting on the Blueberry to arrive. I will be placing an order for the Raspberry flavor this week. There are soooo many flavors! Last night I tried to make Raw Vegan Cheesecake Bites. I haven't taken a photo YET because it didn't quite set before I fell asleep. Hopefully tonight I will be taking some photos of the bites. I used the Dark Chocolate flavor in the cheesecake base and make a strawberry swirl out of maple syrup and frozen strawberries for the top.
Another thing I would like to quickly share is some Happy Mail this week! I received this from TeaBook. It's a Tea Tumbler and a collection of teas. I will be doing at least one review over at
Sororitea Sisters on this Tumbler in the near future. I might also do a few mini reviews on this site for it, too! I'm loving the sleek look to the tumbler already!
Questions of the Day: What's the last bit of HAPPY MAIL you received? What flavors do you think would make neat extracts?
Mango and nectarine for the extracts! I miss nectarines so much in the winter!
ReplyDeleteThe last bit of happy mail I recieved was probably the Kombucha vitamins! I love the look of that tumbler too!
I know they have mango! I will look for nectarine! How are you liking the Kobmucha Caps, btw?
DeleteOMG! They DO have a Nectarine!

I love the kombucha caps! They give me that same buzzy, happy feeling that drinking kombucha does. That's so cool that they have nectarine! That's an unusual flavor too!
DeleteI am REALLY looking forward to hearing more about these cheesecake bites!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope they photograph ok! LOL I sampled the batter before putting in the freezer and it was like a lemon chocolate (because I put Lemon Juice in it)
DeleteI get HAPPY mail all the time!!!! :) In fact, I adore getting mail, I miss it. Emails are just NOT the same thing, AT ALL!
ReplyDeleteI agree!!! :) I would LOVE to hear about your happy mail more :)
DeleteOoh, need extracts! I've never heard of those. Hoping to get some happy mail today! My dad ordered me a care package of vegan treats from Vegan Essentials...supposed to arrive today.
ReplyDeleteOh! Vegan Essentials! YAY! Can't wait to see what's in your box!!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteVery interesting on the extracts, wow! And looking forward to hearing about the cheesecake bites!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about posting it today but I have a lot of MWM stuff to post so most likely tomorrow for the cheesecake bites!
DeleteWhat do you use these flavors for exactly? I know awhile ago you suggested to use the peppermint stevia to flavor water, and man that was the best suggestion I've ever heard! It is a great way to jazz up water from time to time.
ReplyDeleteI believe you can use them for just about anything! I know Matt Monarch and Angela Stokes Monarch use them in Algae Smoothies! I tried them in a raw vegan dessert I hope to be posting soon! Can't wait to try them in more things!
DeleteI write to a friend in America and it's always so lovely to get her letters in the post instead of bills! lol
ReplyDeleteI used to have over 100 pen pals from around the world! Opal over at I'm Celebrating Life and I started snail mailing each other, too! LOVE IT!
DeleteHi Jennifer,
ReplyDeleteI can think of a zillion ways to use these Potent Extracts to boost flavors. I'd love to try caramel and chocolate. I am delighted that you shared your Potent Extracts from Medicine Flowers with us on the Healthy Happy Green and Natural Party Blog Hop Party. I appreciate it and I'm so glad you are partying with us. I'm pinning and sharing this!
