Somewhere, Over the Rainbow...

Got a heads up from my friend Jennifer in CA about the sweet awesomeness that is ringing its sugar bell in Palm Springs. The blog for Over the Rainbow Cupcakes describes its owner as quite the culinary master:

Roman Blas is the Chef and Owner of Over the Rainbow Cupcakes and Cheesecake Pops PS. Chef Blas is a graduate of one of the country’s finest culinary schools, Le Cordon Bleu College in Atlanta, Georgia. In addition to his excellent training, he has worked at the Ritz Carlton Hotel near Atlanta and Re’past Restaurant in Atlanta (ranked as one of the country’s Top 20 New Restaurants USA). Roman is also a Certified Culinarian with the American Culinary Federation. Locally, Chef Blas has been the Pastry Chef at Indian Ridge Country Club in Palm Desert. As a trained and experienced pastry chef, I know the meaning of using top quality ingredients. Top quality ingredients result in top quality products. And, top quality products lead to high levels of customer satisfaction. We make all of our cupcakes & cheesecake pops from scratch, using ONLY real butter, high quality King Arthur flour, Callebaut Chocolates and whole vanilla beans – no artificial ingredients. You WILL taste the difference. That is our commitment to you.

Sounds amazing! If you are travelling through that part of California, be sure to check them out and let me know how it goes!
