HOT CAKES
S'mores Kit
"ONE OF MY PASSIONS IN MY CAREER as a chocolatier and dessert shop
owner is to take nostalgic treats that we all love, and turn the sophistication
dial up a few notches," says Autumn Martin, founder of Hot Cakes, a Seattle
cakery and sweets line that includes her specialty S'mores Kit. As a former
Girl Scout growing up in the Pacific Northwest, Martin wanted to recreate the
campfire favorite in an organic, high-quality offering.
The eye-catching kit contains 12 homemade graham crackers and
six homemade corn syrup–free marshmallows as well as a bar of Martin's
signature smoke-infused chocolate, which she calls "the shining star of the
kit." And while the set was intended for families and kids, the modern design,
organic ingredients, and playful nostalgia have caught on quickly among
foodies of all ages as a perfect gift. Suggested retail price: $25/1.2 pounds.
