We can’t guarantee it will stop a cold dead in its tracks, but it will definitely warm you up after a day skiing or tobogganing.

This fig and prosciutto hors d’oeuvre uses dried figs- cheaper than fresh and available year-round. You can make the baguette toasts earlier in the day and store them in an airtight container at room temperature.

Brimming with ripe berries, juicy cherries and a trio of citrus fruit and juices, our sparkling, jewel-toned punch makes a fabulous and refreshing addition to holiday-themed cocktail parties and festive gatherings.

Tarragon and chicken are a natural pairing, and make an ideal stuffing for our French-inspired fouée. Use leftover roast chicken, or buy a rotisserie chicken at the grocery store and discard the skin and bones. For a lighter meal, serve a half-portion with vegetable soup.

Fun for the holidays, this cranberry-based cocktail gets its kick from gin and ginger ale. For an extra burst of ginger flavour, add a thin slice of ginger root to each glass.

Brimming with asparagus and a trio of fine Italian cheeses, our fresh and tender stuffed pasta is sensational with sautéed mushrooms and tossed with a simple lemon butter sauce. Serve with leafy green salad tossed in a simple vinaigrette.

Spiced apple cocktail makes a great cold-weather cosmopolitan. Serve ice cold. Thread a dried apple chip onto the cinnamon stick garnish if you’d like.

Steeped with aromatic vanilla and warming cinnamon, this luxurious apple caramel sauce poured over creamy, rich Salted Caramel Ice Cream is sheer decadence. For added crunch, sprinkle with toasted pecans, and to gild the lily even more, we’ve added our crisp Belgian waffle cookies.

Pistachios and peaches are an ambrosial combination, especially when those peaches are tossed with our aromatic roasted pistachio oil and grilled to juicy, sweet perfection. Topped with fresh basil and honeyed cream, this is the quintessential dessert for enjoying outdoors on a warm summer’s eve.

With a hint of lemon flavour, and with lovely rustic texture provided by cornmeal, this outstanding tart base is a cinch to make and pairs beautifully with our dark, rich and sweet-tart wild blueberry spread.
