Introducing the "Bonbon Baton,” created in homage of my Dad, esteemed orchestra conductor, music educator, flutist, and beloved friend and guide to all who knew him, on the second anniversary of his passing.

At the core of this creation lies a rich amalgamation of nut butters and bits, each representing a section in the symphony of flavor. Pistachio (piano?), hazelnut butter (violas?), walnut (bassoon?), pecans (French horn?), cashew butter (violins?), and baru nuts (cymbals?). But I say with assurance that coconut sugar plays the harp; Theobroma Cacao cello, double bass, and flute. (My Dad could surely know how to name each of the players better than I. And I believe if he were with us - writing with me this description as he had almost all on this site - he might have tastefully inserted an orchestral joke about the violin-viola drama).

The baton is a conduit through which the conductor channels the energy of sound. With each bite of the Bonbon Baton (or Baton Bonbon - totally different scansion!), one is transported to the realm of sensory delight, where flavors harmonize in perfect synchrony, creating a crescendo of gustatory bliss.

As you indulge in this exquisite bonbon, “may you be the prism through which Light refracts for your audience to enjoy.”
