Pretty In Pink Recipes For Mom

 I am a little blue this Mother's Day, after a cancelled trip to see "Ms. Shop This." So I thought a big dose of pink would brighten my mood. Not to mention most moms feel pretty in pink. Why not treat your own mom to a terrific sweet treat? She will love you even more for some of your homemade lov'n from the oven!


La Fleurette Cocktail
This pretty in pink champagne cocktail would make me smile. Cheers to all of the Mothers!

Healthy Pink Pitaya Blender Pancakes
This is something I have not heard of before. Have you? Pitaya, also known as Dragon Fruit, is a superfood. It's high in fiber, antioxidants, omega fatty acids, and other healthy benefits. Pretty and good for Mom, too. She'll love that.

Sprinkles Strawberry Cupcakes
Here's a copycat recipe from the famous cupcake bakery, "Sprinkles." I remember the first time I had one. It was like dying and going to heaven! This recipe features strawberry puree in both the cake and the not overly sweet frosting.

Pink Champagne Truffles 
This recipe has my name all over it. They don't sound difficult to make at all.

Heart Brownie Cake
Warm your Mom's heart with chocolate and pink roses in a heart shape. The kids will love making this. Of course, you use a heart shaped pan. You can get one delivered via Amazon Prime by Saturday.

Strawberries and Cream Donuts
"Mr. Shop This" and I were just discussing how a good donut was even better than cake. And don't these sound and look delish? They are loaded with strawberries, inside and out.

Pistachio Rose Panne Cotta Tart
This recipe is the complete package ~ a sweet treat and flowers! And isn't both sweet and salty always a delicious duo? This is lovely.

Hibiscus Coconut Ice Cream
Coconut ice cream was a favorite of my Dad and I. Until Mom started making it, he and I would sneak away to Howard Johnson's for a secret scoop. This is a no churn recipe, so no special equipment needed. So pretty!

Chocolate Coconut Raspberry Cake
Vegan and Gluten Free
I realize that I have featured this cake before in some recipe roundup. But it is just too pretty not to include for Mom! That fluffy frosting and dripping ganache just makes it the 
prettiest cake ever!

Raspberry White Chocolate Scones
Berrylicious! Anytime white chocolate is involved, the treat is special. These scones make for a beautiful breakfast in bed.

Vegan & Gluten Free Strawberry Mousse Pie
Oh my goodness, the ingredient list is probably not what you expected. Think raw cashews, medjool dates, almond butter, and more healthy alternatives.

Kim Crawford’s Frosé
With just one ingredient, this is a no brainer for anyone to create. You do, however, need a day or two to freeze the chic concoction. 

Coconut Raspberry Macarons
Oh how beautiful! If you make these, please add the roses to your plate or countertop. They are stuffed with a raspberry rose buttercream. YUM!
Half Baked Harvest

No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake
Anything with a cookie crumb crust and no baking involved is easy. Even a husband or the kiddos could make this pretty pink cheesecake.
