ย
Three things I love:
Bacon.
Candy.
People that make special things with special ingredients.
aaaand bonus. ย You. ย I think you’re awful swell.
Because I love all of these things, I thought I’d share a little something with you.
Morning Glory Confections is a Los Angeles based artisan brittle and candy company. ย We’re talking handmade, small batch candy with amazing flavor combinations. ย
The best part? ย I want to send you some!
ย
The Bacon, Spanish Paprika and Cashew Brittle recently roused my interest. ย It’s sweet and smoky with just a lingering bit of salt and spice. ย It’s absolutely delightful.
ย
Because I couldn’t help myself, I also tried the Almond and Bacon Dragees. ย Lightly candied and crunchy almonds triple coated in semi sweet chocolate, dusted in cocoa powder and tiny bacon crumbled. ย Subtle. ย Chocolate. ย The perfect crunch. ย I ate them for breakfast this morning… I wish I were kidding. ย
ย
And because I couldn’t order from Morning Glory without getting my absolute favorite treat… I also got a Fleur de Sel Peanut Brittle. ย It’s perfectly salty and sweet and marvelous. ย
I’m sharing with you! ย Three of you darling people will win some Morning Glory. ย Just leave a comment on this post from now until Saturday at midnight. ย Say hi. ย Tell me my hair looks nice… it’ll make me feel good. ย ooOh happy day!

LOVE YOUR BLOG!!
This is so nice! I’m new to your blog and I’m loving it already. I’m also a fan of all things bacon and want to come up with a cupcake recipe w/bacon frosting. Still working on it :-)
I love candy too! I’ve been intrigued by the combination of bacon and sweetness. This candy makes me want to experiment with bacon and sugar treats.
I would love to try some! Thanks for all your scrumtious recipes!
Hi Joy!
I know moving can be uber stressful. On top of having to learn, in your new house, how to find the bed in the dark without stubbing your toe, you also have to UNPACK!! I wish I were there to help you, we’d have fun. I know a way to make you feel better, though.
GETTING MAIL!
Everyone likes mail, especially at your new digs, it makes it feel like it’s more YOURS. So, if you send me your address, I’ll send you one of my bookmarks! (I’m making prototypes now to sell on Etsy at some point)
All you hsve to do is go to my blog at http://www.justaddwatersilly.com and scroll down, there’s like ten or so designed so far… Just pick your favorite OR tell me what you’d like it to look like and I’ll paint it, bedazzle it with a beaded tassel and send it on to you! Everyone likes free stuff. I think you deserve a prezzie for all your hard work.
Hugs you you, worker bee. :o)
Best,
Jenn
Bacon, almonds -and- chocolate!?! All the important food groups are there. I don’t thing there could be anything more delightful! Wonder if we could figure out the recipe?
I like the box grater.
your hair looks great :) the sun is out here after many days of rain – i’m thinking i need to cut out of work and go get myself some chocolate to eat….
Ooooooooo….all my favorite things…bacon..chocolate..free candy…and Your BLOG! It’s the first thing I look at when I get home from work. Good luck with your new apartment…it’s looking great…and take your time getting settled in…you know we will all be checking in on you just the same! Peace and Hugsssssssss
Hope you get settled into your new home soon! best of luck. Love the blog.
oh my gosh, that looks divine. love your blog! you take all the time you need to unpack, we’ll still be here!
Would love to try these interesting combos! Thank you for the giveaway! And by the way, you’re hair is stunning! :)
Hi Joy! Thanks for your great recipes and fun writing style… makes me wish I could live in the San Francisco area (instead of cold Canada ;) to try out some of the places you describe. I just discovered your ‘blog about a month ago but it’s fast become one of my faves! So far the most magnificent thing I’ve made has been the Cheddar Black Pepper Biscuits, but I’m gearing myself up for the Avocado Pound Cakes.
Oh… and your hair looks fabulous today darling :)
Charlotte
Me like brittle. Me like not getting bogged down in technicalities like midnight,…. plus you didnt say which Saturday. Me like brittle. Hollah!
Would love to try these – they sound divine!
I just discovered your blog a couple weeks ago and have been on a baking binge!! Just wanted to say thanks for all the great recipes! and that I’d love some chocolate!
I check this website everyday…and drool.
i would attempt to make the things you make but alas i am a poor college student in another country with NO OVEN (really i just have a territorial host mother as i am in Latin America)! But really, i don’t think they even have baking soda here, i tried to find some.
Also i have an allergy to gluten so that somewhat limits my baking options.
anyway i dream of bacon and ESPECIALLY chocolate all the time!
this is my sad but true story.
yes i know the shipping would cost more but PICK ME!
Hi. Your hair looks nice. I pimp your blog out to everyone I know. I would love some free goodies so I’m commenting!
Joy-these flavors sound amazing and given I live in So. Cal I cannot believe I never heard of this company. I am going to have to come and sample your baking one day.
thank you.
I thought I’d be a clever southern baker and make peanut brittle with Dr. Pepper once upon a time. The brittle was good, with a cayenne kick. Unfortunately, the Dr. Pepper didn’t make much of a difference.
That bacon, paprika and cashew brittle sounds intriguing!
Have a great day!
Dear Joy,
Your blog (and you! ^_^) are amazing! I always delight in checking in to see what’s going on (cookie recipes are my fav!). Anyway, I hope that everything is going okies with you and that you have all the best of what’s to come.
Sincerely yours,
<3 Lisa
I’d love to win.
Dang, missed the cut-off for the Morning Glory give-away but I do want to thank you for the introduction to this company and their amazingly yummy-sounding brittles and such…will search for their website to check them out further, and order (that seems certain!)…thanks Joy!!!

I aspire to be like you, and your darling hair. :)
I would lovee to try these out!! :)

I am officially in love with your blog!
I have always liked the flavor of bacon but to have it in candy is so smart. That smoky, salty flavor must be a perfect combo!

Oh, and my hair looks great! :)
I know I’m too late, but we share not only a love of baking but a love of BACON ha This past summer I went to a beach that served peanut butter and bacon sandwiches- I obviously had to try one and it was actually kind of good. Anyways, big fan of the blog :)
Hi Joy !!
This looks FA-BU-LOUS.
Sounds great! Can i have one?
Greetings from Ireland!! Love the blog – hair looks lovely!! haha :) xo
Probably too late your time, but man I wish it wasn’t :-(
Those look tasty!
Sounds delicious!
Good hair day and special candy is mostly all a girl needs from a day.:)
You look fabulous, not just your hair!!
It is 11:41 – not midnight YET! Boy do I hope you pick me!! :)
I already won because I got you!!! I can’t tell you how many of your awesome confections I’ve baked my way thru, each and every one better than the one before. As for your hair, mine is straight, so of course I’m totally jealous!!! Good luck to sis in the city, and you in your new digs. As always, you are my muse!!
This stuff sounds awesome and very interesting to taste!
Gah! In my time zone I’ve missed out but maybe not in yours. Fingers crossed ;)
Yummy! I loved the article about you moving your sis to Seattle. So touching!
I might be too late, but I’ll say hi anyways :) Those candies all sound sooo very good. I’m such a fan of bacon in things that a lot of people think they don’t belong, lol. Bacon and peanut butter sandwiches are probably my fav crazy bacon thing that I always get funny faces for. Thanks for all the great effort you put into this blog, I really love coming here and seeing all the great recipes!
i love your blog!!!! i hope you can make more videos of your recipe.
Love your blog! Found it through Annie’s Eats.
I’m so glad I found your blog!!! Your baking it so inspiring, but your writing is too! You have such a wonderful way with words. So descriptive. So witty. Shall I go on?
P.S. Your hair looks great!
Your site is so cheerful. Every time I visit it makes me smile. And of course I smiled even more when I saw the wonderful treats you’re giving away. Yumm! Looks delicious.
deeelish. and even though loreena just said it, your hair does look fab.
just forced the normally uber healthy man in my life to try the bacon maple bar at voodoo donuts in portland. even he had to agree, bacon makes everything better.
I made your smores brownies for my friend’s birthday and they came out amazing. I watch your website because you’re so down to earth and hysterical. Keep posting amazing stuff!!
(Mmmm, almond and bacon … mmmmm.) You’re hair looks great and your butt looks tiny in those jeans!
Mm, those sound surprisingly delicious! And did I mention your hair looks awesome?
I think you are gorgeous. I wish I had pretty curly hair like yours!
ps. If you send me something, I promise to send you something back. Deal? :)
Would love to win some…thanks for hosting this giveaway! :)
Hi Joy!
Those sweets look amazing! I love the bacon pairing, I’ve even tried my own bacon toffee after seeing Vosages’.
Joy. Those cookies. Lovely. They look as though they may rank up there with chocolate zucchini cake for breakfast. (Zucchini is a vegetable. It’s healthy. Really.)
I would *so* love to put my lips on any of those delightful confections! Please pick me or I’ll be forced to lick my screen!
sounds delicious. you’re the best, joy!
pick me, pick me!!! love your blog–
The candy looks great, I would love to try some.
Mmmm…bacon. Mmmmm…candy. Mmmmmm….baconcandy.
Love all your photos. Thanks for the giveaway.

They look so yummy! Love your blog. :)
Hi joy! I love your blog and your hair. :) I made the s’mores brownies last night and wow are they amazing. Thanks for doing what you do.
I love your photos and your awesome little plates? teeny casseroles dishes? They are rad! Whether or not I win, I am definitely going to find these candies.
What a wonderful giveaway! Chocolate and bacon is a genius combination.
Hi! I had a fencing tournament today. I didn’t win. Some candy would make me feel a lot better.
Wow- those look delicious. Thanks!
hi joy.. your blog is fun and so inspiring.. there’s a recipe for everyone.. would love to win..
Oh wow, this looks delicious.
My sig other and I made bacon toffee last year for Christmas, but the bacon was too chewy and it came out with a really weird texture… tasted yummy though.
This looks delicous though.
Love your recipes- pick me! pick me!
OMG – brittle with bacon sounds so delicious. I am all about the salty/sweet.
Love your blog!
Bacon and sweet peanuts…sounds like an awesome combination
I’m in, thanks
I just found your website a few days ago. It made me so happy. You rock. =]
What can I say, I’m 7 months pregnant and this sounds so good. I have tried about 4 of your recipes (the lastest were the browned butter blueberry muffins) and have Loved them all. Thanks for great recipes and a a funny down-to-earth read.
Yum! All those flavors sound amazing.
Gee, your hair does look nice. And you’re super sweet. And, and, AND … sh….. don’t tell the other food bloggers, but your blog is my favorite. Let’s just keep that between us though, shall we?
I’m fairly certain that bacon makes everything better. As does your blog. You have such wonderful, creative recipes. I always feel inspired to try something new in my own kitchen after I’ve visited. Of course, I’m still telling my California-inhabiting sister that she needs to come to one of your fabulous classes. I’ll live vicariously through her once she makes it! And she will. :)
I saw the recent post with the smore brownies and it reminded me how much I loved them when I made them last summer! Candy for breakfast sounds great. I had cupcakes so i am not far behind! Have a wonderful Sunday.
Sara
bacon, chocolate and great looking hair. What else could one want?
Hello! The packaging for the candy is adorable. Thanks for the giveaway – it looks delicious!
Hi! Wishing you a great weekend and a stress-free move!
Thanks too for all the great recipes.
I’m new and confused as to why I suddenly became so very very into the world of food blogs and wanted you to know that you are the the most fun to follow. I rather dig your humor and food!
I’m such a fan of your blog- you have some lovely recipes I’m just dying to try out. <3
I LOVE your blog Joy – I only wish I didn’t live on the East Coast so I could come to one of the really fabulous-sounding dinners you throw!
Pork fat absolutely rules and so do you and your site!! Sweet, salty – nothing like it! Would love to try the candies. I live with some handsome guys (hubby and two teenage boys) and a beautiful teenage daughter who all just love bacon and candy! They would definitely eat those for breakfast too – LOL! Thanks for sharing all the great recipes with all of us!
Dear Joy,
Pour maple syurp over bacon, and bake until crispy. It’s divine. Also I love your hair, I’m super jealous.
Mmm, count me in.
A co-worker connected me to you! She comments on here occasionally, too. But she makes your wonderful recipes and brings some from time to time for our “coffee clutch” corner in my media center. It would be coooool to win some of these to share there with the other coffeeholics! Thanks for bringing us together!
sher
Bacon and sugar and spices – I’m going to have to try that one way or another. I’m very disappointed that this flavor isn’t for sale on their website. Please save me the plane fare from Baltimore to LA!
Joy, I love your blog, and the recipes. Tried the Oatmeal Raspberry Scones this morning…yummm
Not sure what you’re hair looks like, but I’m sure it’s gorgeous!
My first attempt at a bacon-flavoured dessert was a bust. I guess I need to do more “research” by tasting how the pros do it! ;)
count me in to win!
PS- LOVE LOVE LOVE the Seattle post ;) Good luck lil sis in the big city!!
PPS- Did you do your hair dif today? Totally rad ;)
Didn’t the LA County Fair sell chocolate covered bacon this past year?
Your hair looks marvelous!
Hey Joy! Love your blog and your hair looks great also! :)
Hi Joy!
We share the self-made baker in the great age of the twenties! Thanks for your consistency in creative recipes!
P.S. So glad you like Green & Black’s cocoa- doesn’t it liven up any chocolate recipe?! Beats Hershey’s anyday!
Thanks for the giveaway, would love to win.
Joy – have you tried Bacon Tomato Jam? or Bacon Chocolate? Both easy to make at home as well!
I LOVE bacon! That sounds like an amazing candy store! Who knew bacon would fly so high! LOL!
Can’t wait to see some pics of the turquoise walls and the view from the new place!
Have a blessed weekend,
Captain Momma
Joy, your recipes and photographs are always so great! I just made your Avacado Pound Cake — it was a huge success! Keep up the good work!
Love me some bacon!
Sounds great!
Your no roll pie crust has made me happy many times. I would love to win some candy :) Thanks, and BTW, my hair looks absolutely hideous! ;p Rainy days always makes it frizz.

You’re hair looks absolutely FAB-OO-LOUS! Let’s celebrate your hair with something sweet and tasty!
Bacon in candy sounds lovely.
I just ate some brown butter almond brittle ice cream. Then I logged onto your site and thought the Fleur de Sel brittle looked amazing! (Not as amazing as your blog though!)
Great hair, smile and inspiration.
Candy delish, hair great…love to win!
Pick me, please! :)
Your blog has an awesome banner, btw!
Who doesn’t love bacon???
i’ve seen the phrase “bacon is meat candy,” but here you go! I read you every day and you always make me smile. thank you so much!
Hi Joy,
I’ve just recently been introduced to your blog. I really enjoy baking and I’ve been enjoying looking through your recipes and can’t wait to try some! Look forward to future posts! By the way, your hairs is cute! :)
These look delicious – what wonderful flavor combinations.

Love you and your recipes!!! A highlight of each and every day.
That candy looks so good! I would totally eat it for breakfast too :)
Oooo your hair looks nice!
And I got in a semi-heated argument with a friend last night that yes, you could absolutely make bacon pancakes. He didn’t beleive me…
OMG, this is how you realize how many people follow your site! Can you believe it, this is the 679th comment?! WTF?!!!(Sorry, I don’t usually swear!).
Amazing Joy, you can be proud of yourself! You rock!
My husband jokes about how obsessed I am with following your blog. All of your recipes are inspiring and exciting. I can’t wait to try the avocado pound cake. Thanks Joy for all the amazing pictures and wonderful recipes. You ROCK!
Love your blog, Joy! Thanks for all the wonderful recipes. Also, good luck with your new apartment! (Also, you’re not the only one who loves candy for breakfast.)
Your hair…email me we’ll kibitz -I have a white girl fro, and if I could get my hair to look like yours it would be peanut butter and bacon cookies daily. I teach baking in high school and your blog has created a new assignment -find the best food blog, with great pictures to inspire you, AND you can’t use Joy…she’s mine.
Thank you for doing this giveaway! The candy looks delicious!
Bacon! I <3 it. Except for bacon vodka – that was just nasty.
I just love your blog. Oh my gosh the Chai Tea & Cashew sounds soooooo good.
Chocolate for breakfast is one of my favourites!
Mmmm this brittle sounds amazing! I’ve actually heard of Morning Glory before and I’ve always wanted to try some! So sending some me way would be great… :)
hi…your hair looks beautiful.
Oooooh! Those sound delicious!
Mmm… I’ve never had brittle that wasn’t peanut!
I really can’t believe how good your hair looks.
This candy looks yummy, especially since I love bacon!
What great flavor combinations. Who would have thought? Can’t wait to try your Lemon Hazelnut cupcakes!
your blog has inspired me to bake much more creatively, thank you!
Hi Joy,
I stumbled across your blog by accident. I googled ‘Joy of Baking’ and saw “Joy the Baker” in the search results. I clicked on the link to your site because I love baking and after a few minutes of reading your posts, seeing your pictures and the new and different recipes you share, I knew that we had something in common…a passion for baking and food. Anyway, I love your blog so please never stop sharing.
You don’t need to send me any of the confections…I found the website and plan to order some anyway just to support the business :p . The purpose of my post today is just to say THANKS for sharing this with us.
Ooooh, pick me pick ME!!! By the way Joy, I’m making your vegan pumpkin walnut bread….er, muffins…as we speak. ;o)
I love your hair. I really do.
Bacon, Spanish Paprika and Cashew Brittle
Are you kidding me? I would try that in a heartbeat!
I really enjoy your blog and you have cool aprons if I remember correctly. Thought I would switch it up since you are getting so much great hair love. Thanks for the fun of a giveaway.
I’d love to try the New Mexico Chili & Pumpkin Seed!!
Those flavor combinations are intriguing
I love reading your blog! Always look forward to see what’s new!
love seeing all the wonderful goodies on your blog. they always make my mouth water. thanks for keeping us filled with deliciousness.
Love the hair and the blog. This blog is responsible for at least 15 extra pounds :)
Hi! Your hair looks nice :)
Joy, you were the topic of much praise this morning. I did make the Lemon Hazelnut recipe for my mom’s birthday and the bits of cake I let my sisters sample were just enough to make the wait unbearable! Tonight we shall devour this delicious flavor combination. My sisters and mom will all be visiting you soon, hopefully we will bake and cook our way through your site!

Hi. You’re hair looks beautiful.
Hi Joy! I have been following your blog for a while, I just tried your cranberry almond bread— It was amazing! I love your blog!!! Keep up the AWESOME work! :)
I always look forward to your blog. Love your stories, recipes and photographs. My daughter might love bacon as much as you. 1# of bacon has been on her Christmas and birthday list for the past 2 years. She’s 12 years old :-)
Totally feel you on the candy-for-breakfast thing… I may/may not have just eaten a bag of peanut butter M&Ms. (Don’t tell my mama!) I absolutely adore this blog, especially the sunny pictures. I’m from DC, and in the past month we’ve gotten: 3 feet of snow, 12 rainy days, gale winds and flood warnings. It must be Christmas!
Your obsession with pancakes makes my world a better place. Thank you thank you thank you!
Those look like a dream come true. And your hair looks ravishing.
Every recipe I have tried of yours turned out amazing! I usually like to play with recipes and change them up to make them better, but I know I don’t need to tinker with your recipes. Make a cookbook so I can buy it.
Wow! Fleur de sel is my favorite to compliment anything sweet. Such a flavor enhancer! Your blog rocks! Thanks Joy!
OMG, this looks amazing! Please, please pleassssseee! I love candy, but brittle is not something that I have mastered! I hope that your move is going well! I am also sure that your hair looks amazing, doesn’t everyones??
This is awesome. Makin’ the Avocado cake for a suprise party today!
Ooooh, fleur de sel. Puhlease!
Hi!
Wow, it is only 8 am where I live, and this already the 663 comment. Well, I love caramel and your blog, so I am going to join the comment posting trend :D
As a person with naturally curly hair, I am always in search of the perfect hair product to make my hair fabulous. I also love to hear that my hair looks good.
So…Joy, your hair is lovely and your blog is the BEST. I always look forward to what you have to say. (And who doesn’t love anything with bacon!)
Don’t feel guilty about eating them for breakfast….it’s bacon!
YUM! Brittle reminds me of my dad and Christmas time.
Your hair looks nice, Joy. haha
Hmm, that brittle sounds really interesting. What a combination! Thanks for the giveaway!
Your site makes my day, truly. Whenever things just aren’t going well I LOVE looking at your posts, showing off your uberly excellent hair, and checking out random recipes to try out. For example, today in my dismay I decided to cheer myself up by seeing if you had a new post, and here it is, a chance to win delicious food. What better picker-upper than that? I truly, absolutely, indubitably, love your blog, and your hair!
I love all things bacon, as well. tried I’ve only tried the brittle at your cupcake party. would like to try those almonds, though. triple coated in chocolate and sprinkled with real bacon bits? yes, please!
I love interesting new foods. I am going to have to try a sweet recipe with bacon.
love reading your blog! Always a good read and I can always use a sugar boost! Thanks!
Hi Joy! I made your double chocolate peanut butter ice cream for a special dinner party last year and it was soooooooo good! I LOVE good, homemade food and your site is my favorite place to look for recipes. You’re wonderful! Thanks for being you and bringing all of us so much…..JOY!!!
Ohh your such a lovely lady, hope your having a wonderful saturday filled with sunshine!
Hi Joy! Candy looks yummy–I could use a sugar high!

love your beautiful blog! your hair looks great :)
susan
Love you blog, and am most intrigued by this post. I would never in a million years think to make bacon candy, but I would certainly relish the chance to try some! Keep up the excellent work!
If I could live only off one item it would be bacon candy. I LOVE your recipes (:
These confections look delicious … and of course you do too … thanks for the chance to win some yummies.
oh yes, one more thing: some traditional desserts from Singapore(where I live) actually use morning glory flowers for food colouring! it tints ricecakes a vivid blue :) talk about morning glory confectioneries.
I’ve never tried bacon sweets before, but I do adore the “morning glory” brand of stationery from korea! :) your blog is a joy to read!
You’re hair and your blog are beautiful! If only I had the time to bake all your recopies that I’ve bookmarked!
I would love to win this! It is cold and rainy in Massachusetts today… a little bacon candy would help my family cheer up!
Love your blog! That peanut brittle sounds yummy. I’m going to check out the Morning Glory site today. Oh, and you’ve got GREAT hair…
I just started reading your blog, but I love the clean, simple design — and the delicious recipes! :)
Joy-
I recently just made peanut butter bacon cookies and fell in love. I never thought bacon and sweets would go so well together but indeed they did.
Anyways, I love your blog. Checking your blog is part of my daily computer routine! :-)
i also LOVE your blog – you crack me up, your recipes are divine & you’re adorable:-)
I love your blog, I love your recipes, and I’d love to win some Morning Glory!
I LOVE your blog! I love the way you write. Your style is fun and happy and friendly! You inspire me to reach higher and make my blog better! xox
Top Five Favorite Blogs includes Joy the Baker! AND – what nice hair you have :).
Joy, your hair looks nice and your food looks even better! Loved the pics of your sister’s move.
Your blog is so cute! Met someone the other day who was in the bakery I work at, she was mentioning your Avocado Pound cake, and I knew exactly what she was talking about!
Candy is my jam!
oh i love candy, but bacon in candy.. i’m dying to try it out…
Give me brittle ;)
I love bacon…but as candy??? Interesting!!!!!
I love bacon…but as candy???? Interesting!!!!!
Hi Joy,
I don’t love bacon, but in candy form I might.
Oh my gosh, my husband will think hes died and gone to heaven! Bacon and chocolate? Those are really the only 2 food groups that exist in his world, well other than the coffee group ;)
hi Joy
I love bacon and paprica!!!!
Love reading your blog. And love love peanut brittle.
Dear Joy,
Bacon brittle? that sounds REALLY interesting. Since I’m from LA maybe I’ll make a stop by at this place..but getting it from you would be even sweeter! How do you get word of all these interesting places anyway?!
Of course your hair looks awesome but with that gorgeous happy smile even bad hair days can be overcome :)
Mmmmm fleur de sel and peanuts brittle. Delicious!
Oh, my. Those all sound so delicious.
Oh, and your hair looks nice.
Hello Joy!
Yes, bacon is definitely on my top ten of favorite foods…. ahhhhh….
Hello from Manila! :)
Sweet bacon Gods! A contest with bacon and candy in it. I’m in.
I’ve always loved unusual combinations – bacon dipped in chocolate sauce is something I’ve snacked on since the 70’s. Wondering when salty french fries dipped in chocolate milkshake will catch on.
Yum :)
Your hair always looks nice, even when you’re making a mess painting your room:)
Yum! I love your site and like to come here for a daily dose of drool-worthy pictures and recipes :)
I discovered your blog a few weeks ago, through a search for a particular recipe (can’t remember what the recipe was). I thought your recipes looked great, but your ‘story’ drew me in, and I’ve been reading your blog since. This is my first time to post, though. How shameless of me to let the opportunity to win a mouthwatering confection be my motivation to say something nice to a stranger….a ‘generous’ stranger.
Okay, now for something nice about you. I think the devotion and obvious love you share for your little sister is refreshing and heartwarming. I have always envied women who have sisters. It’s like having a built-in best friend. :-) Okay, I’m through gabbing, but I sure would like the sweet goodies. Hah!
Bacon, bacon, bacon…nothing burps better!! Your hair looks marvelous darling.
Awesome, these sound great! Thanks for the giveaway, Joy!
I recently found your blog and find myself checking every day – thanks for all your inspiration!
Ahhhh, your hair looks great! I’m Waiting on the Bacon!
You the coolest chick ever! I love your site
Those sound incredible! If you’re looking for some interesting toffee (as opposed to Brittle), I’d recommend Terry’s Toffee from Chicago– to die for! (And the best confectionery in the city!).
Hi Joy,
of course your hair looks nice!
I love the bacon+ trend!
Hi Joy,
I love reading your blog, best baking blog I’ve come across! You’re delightful and funny to read!
I’m currently moving too, so I know what you’re going through right now, but I can’t wait to bake in my new kitchen!
Hi Joy!
Another Joy here! Love your blog! Love your way of chatting that brightens our days. LOVE your no-roll pie crust, btw. Have a happy day!
Hope you’re having fun moving! ;)
Joy your blog is awesome! I love how quirky and fun every entry is!
Candy? Candy? Did some mention sending me FREE candy?
OMG!!!!!
Count me “in”, Joy!
Just the fact that you are thoughtful enough to think so highly of us to send us free candy says so many good things about you, for there is no greater gift than candy, cookies, cakes and well…..anything with sweetness attached….so bring it on, Girlfriend!
And, yes…..your hair really is pretty, but nothing is prettier than your spirit and your soul!
Keep up the good work!
Luv U!
Patty
Those. Look. Amazing.
New reader, by the way, and I love your blog!
Oh Joy . . . life is full of ironies (did I spell that right?). All week I’ve been trying this new belly fat cure kinda diet thing where you don’t eat sugar and very few carbs. I’m dying here. It’s Friday night . . . I log on . . . and you’re GIVING AWAY candy. Really special candy. Lord, have mercy. What I really want to say is . . . pick me, oh please Joy, pick me.
oh my goodness! what a great twist on bacon…drool
Oh my goodness…looks delicious! I spent my childhood deprived of bacon – I’ve got to make up for lost time ;)
Morning Glory… love the name!!
Hello! The brittle sounds incredibly delicious…my mouth is watering as we speak. Thanks for sharing it with one of us…and thank you even more for always sharing your wonderful recipes! I’m a college student, and much of my time procrastinating is spent on this blog =)
Everything tastes better with bacon!
You look great and that stuff sounds yummy!!
It’s not just your hair that looks nice. . . those sweet and savory treats really look nice.

I also eat candy for breakfast. This is my life as a college student. Your hair looks fabulous too!

With my sweet tooth I will try anything that remotely resembles candy. And if it has sea salt or something as yummy as bacon, I’m game.
You’re hair looks gorgeous dah-ling, just magnificent! Thanks for giving us a chance at those wonderful goodies.
Can bacon candy really fly? (I live in Brisbane, Australia)

Looks yummy! Anything with bacon on it is bound to be great. Love your blog.
I very much love your blog, and get compliments every time I make something from it. I’d love to get something yummy that I don’t have to make.
Plus, I wish I could get my hair to look like yours:)

Joy,
There were a quite a few months that I didn’t have a computer, and the thing I missed the most was reading your blog and looking at all the wonderful things that you make and share with us. I’m so glad that I’m able to get back online and try out some new recipes.
Thank you for being so awesome!
why do you have cuter stuff in your town than i do?? it’s just not fair
Ooh Joy! Those sound awesome! Bacon and anything is great! I hope you have a great weekend!
How cool is that – almonds, bacon, chocolate? oOoO LA LA – I’m diggin it for breakfast too! …cashews and bacon and some spanish paprika? G-l-o-r-y! Make me a winner Joy, puh-leaze ;)
A note about you: you’ve got class, spanky recipes, and lots-a-fans, we think you’re super spammy! xoxo

You’re hair is beautiful! ;p Special treats from you would totally make my day!
JTB – you are the best thing since sliced break and cupcakes!!!! I love your blog!! i am addicted and I make your buttermilk pancakes every saturday morning!!! u rock!! love you!!!
Looks SO yummy!!
These look very yummy and even though I can’t see your hair…I am sure it looks marvelous!!
Those almond & bacon dragees sound like the perfect breakfast! Your hair must look great because of the bacon!
Oh. My. Gosh. Bacon and Paprika in brittle? You just made my day…
Oooh, those confections all sound amazing! I’m crossing my fingers!
I love giveaways! And I think you’re a fantastic writer. Judging solely by how much you seem to love food and by your excellent pictures and recipes, I’d say you’re a fantastic baker, too. :)
As a vegetarian, the bacon candy is making me cry a little. I often lament over the things I never tried before becoming a strict veggie.
Ah…Friday and candy. It doesn’t get much better than that!
mmmmm…sounds delicious. I am a new reader and love your blog–can’t wait to start baking this weekend!
You make me want to move to the West Coast! Love a glimpse of your bake-happy life:]
Joy of course your hair looks wonderful! And I love Bacon! Bring on the bacon baby!
OOOOOOOOOOOOh yes please!
How generous of you to do a giveaway.
You’re generating some good karma – your awesome hair must help :)
I’m not a bacon fan, but the salted peanut butter sound great!! Thanks for the giveaway!
Your blog is a delight — and it is inspiring me to bake again. Thank you!
Love your site. These look interesting and so like something my husband would enjoy! :)
Count me in! And, Joy — you’re lookin’ good today. :)
My dad loves peanut brittle. His favorite is from See’s so may I could try this out on him. :)
wahoo! and so YUUUUM!
hope the moving is going well & that you’re still in LA loft looooove :o)
mmm I heart bacon and I’m loving this bacon-in-desserts craze that’s hit.
*and your hair looks nice :)
There is nothing in this world that can’t be bettered with bacon.
Love your blog, love your writing, and really love your hair.
:)
Vicki
I’ve been trying to dig myself out of some Jewish guilt and buy some bacon which I’ve been craving for several years now. But if only I knew where to start…Maybe coated in chocolate? Yummy salty chocolate.
I love to here about other businesses that are what you call doing things “OUTSIDE THE BOX”. I experiment with different combinations of flavors that most people would not think of, some are just out of this world some belong out of this world. The fun is in the trying. As they say, “You never know unless you try”.The confections sounds soooo…interesting to me I’d love a chance to try them.
your hair is immaculate. :) so is bacon.
Hey Joy !!
Good luck packing. Take this time to get rid of anything you haven’t used, worn, looked at or cared about in the past year. It’s a fresh start in your new place.
And in the words of a dog snack commercial …
“Bacon, bacon, bacon. I smell bacon !!”.
Peggy
Hi Joy the Baker, pretty new to your blog but been enjoying you writings and your cooking. Nice to see young people take a interest in baking….Bakers rock ya know….
I love baking and I love your site! Thanks for this chance!
This sounds very tempting. There’s nothing better than something sweet and salty to satisfy that craving. Good for you on your breakfast!
Joy,
Your blog is so fun. I love all the exciting things you share with us. I would love a chance to try out those wonderful confections, but even if I don’t win I thank you for sharing with us.
Bacon candy? I have to try this stuff!
Thanks for being so nice. You’re always saying hi to me and you don’t even know me. It makes me feel special :)
I’ve only just found your site and the first thing is a giveaway. Everyone loves a giveaway, it almost doesn’t matter what’s being given! So anyway, I’m happy I’ve found your site.
Bacon!!!!!!!! Oh, I loves me some bacon, especially with some maple syrup to add something sweet to it. I see no reason that these other little delicacies should be any different on the tasty scale.
Hello Joy-joy.
I’m sure your hair does look nice, and if it didn’t it wouldn’t matter since you’re beautiful inside, and therefore out as well.
Love the blog, going to go bake somethings!
I love reading your posts! I have been reading them last school year, now that I am in college I have continued reading your posts! They are the perfect solution to a good study break. I hope that someday I will be able to make such delicious treats!
yummy………
mmmmmmmmm! My tummy is grumbling!
Hey Joy,
Your hair looks great(hehe), and I would love to try one of those sweet amd savory treats!
Hi! Looks delicious. Thank you for offering the giveaway!
Hi! Your hair looks nice :) My sister is coming to visit me this weekend and we are making your delicious bacon waffles again! <3
Holy Hot Cakes Bake Girl, L@@K at the number of postings!!! Sheesh!!! Congrats on your awesome blog! Let’s see if I make the 600 marker! Smell ya later!
*Love!*
Wow… I wish I could be so adventurous with my cooking! I also can’t wait to get a bigger kitchen so I can bake bake bake!! :)
What amazing looking candy! Thanks for featuring it here. Love your website. I read it everyday! :D
all of that looks delicious!
I have always wanted to try some of those extravagant candies! I love your blog have already used one of your recipes. Thanks for the giveaway!
I can’t remember the first time I read your blog but it was a good day. My penchant is cooking really because baking is too much of a science until I tried your recipes.
I just made some of your banana cranberry bread yesterday and will be enjoying it for breakfast this morning. The bread turned out really well.
Thanks for your blog and fyi, I live in Malaysia so it’s too far for you to send anything. Don’t bother. The brittle flavours sound amazing.
Joy,
You are the best! I subscribe via google reader to your blog. I am always excited when I see a new post of yours up.
OOppps! I messed up my email addy with the last note; only explanation is that I am still overcome with longing… ;) Sorry!
Ouu…looks delicious!
Have a great weekend Joy!
Oh… Stop!! STOP!! Such torture!! Especially for those of us that have a terrible sweet tooth, and live
far away, way too far to imbibe in these goodies. Sometimes I find myself licking the computer screen when
you flaunt your muffins and cookies (my husband complains
that the cats are messing it up – while I snicker…).
Dear Joy,
You are lovely. I love reading all of your posts, because the recipes rock and, more importantly, because you always make me smile.
PS. That brittle looks yummy.
Your website always brightens up my day :D
joy- whenever i read your blog i feel so inspired!!!! Thanks for sharing your talents!!! These look amazing btw!! Thanks
I’m going to make your vanilla cupcakes tomorrow, YUM! LOVE your recipes!
Joy.. I love sweet and salty.. and the name Morning Glory.. SO cute.. right up there with Black Eyed Susans..or Poppys..
You are special.. love your chatter and food!
Amy/Megan’s mum
Joy- do they make those in veggie bacon? I know, I know- that’s almost blasphemy. But the vegetarians need some bacon love, too! Can I make one small request? If you pick me, please don’t send me the bacon brittle- I’d much prefer the regular brittle. Unless of course, the bacon brittle is made with facon-bacon. Then, I’d be much obliged to take the bacon-chocolate-almond of your hands. Yumm.
hi! your hair looks great! ;)
Hey Joy, I just made you Parker House Rolls… AMAZING! The recipe was fantastic.
I love your kitchen and your photography. You have great taste.
What interesting flavors. I’ve been seeing bacon used a lot in things you would think would be odd!
I too love bacon and candy. However, I have never had them together. This looks like the perfect bacon and candy combination to try!
Bahahaha, it’s funny how many people post when there’s a giveaway! Silly people… (silly me too!) I guess we’re all poor and need some cheering up :D
Oh, but that table cloth that you have is SUH-WEET. Totally vintage.
I’m glad your hair looks so nice today, since mine is being so ‘blah’! I bet some brittle would help make it a lot spunkier though :)
You’re sweet and pretty, and your posts about your sis make me a little weepy. You rock!
A thousand times yum. Oh, please, yes, please.
Hey Joy, I’m sure your hair DOES look nice, but I’d rather give you a HUGE thanks for that cream cheese cinnamon roll recipe. They are a big hit every time I make them. Your style and blogging are helping me as I start off in the food blogging world. THANKS!
Brittle… yummy. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Joy,
I don’t know what to say, so I’ll tell you a little secret: I made chocolate-covered bacon for breakfast this morning, and I liked it!
By the way, I want your eyes. So pretty!
<3,
Tessa
Dear Joy,
Please bring your smokin’ hair and rad cooking skillz to Australia to host a dinner party for me.
That is all.
Emma
Not only does your hair look nice, you’re also looking so thin these days! :D
My goodness those confections look yummy! I’ve got to check this place out! Winning some would be extra cool. As Billy Crystal used to say in one of his comedy routines: “You look marvelous.” That’s you, Joy.
Those look delicious! It’s my finals week right now and I could really use the sugar!
Just recently found your blog and I LOVE it!!! Have yet to try the chocolate-bacon combination, but I’m sure it’s delicious.
Joy,
I love your blog and am a faithful follower!
Thanks for the giveaway!!
Awesome! I’d love to try some of their sweets!
me please, I would like to put these in my mouth!
I also think you are fabulous!
Peanut brittle! Yum! My mouth is already watering! I wish I lived in the LA area, so I could try all the delicious treats you blog about.
Oh my goodness cashews and bacon. yum!
Joy – I love to visit your site! You are so refreshing, and always have delightful recipes and commentary.
Thanks for such a great giveaway! Those bacon confections look awesome!
morning glory & big hair…sweet…:)
Oooh, that looks yummy. Perfect to share with my bff during her weekend visit. I’ve always had hair issues so we won’t rear the green dragon talking about how I wish I had yours. :)
I love reading your blog :)
The candy looks wonderful, and so does your hair! Love your blog, and have had great success baking many of your recipes. Keep up the good work :)
Mmmm sounds delightful. But I’m a veggie – so if I’m an extra special winner can you send some sans bacon;)? Thanks for the fun giveaway:)
Your hair looks nice… but what I utterly don’t understand is why you are NOT the size of a house!
Okay, seriously, Hi! I’m new here. Been lurking for awhile. You’re an awfully fun read.
I’ll take something simple. No bacon need apply. (Although chocolate and bacon dragees, you say? Well, maybe.) Probably just the simple fleur de sel peanut brittle.
It’s the purist in me.
Have a great, GREAT weekend. And get some fruit in the mix, huh??
I think you’re fabulous! Your posts always make my day!
Fleur de Sel Peanut Brittle sounds absolutely amazing. Love reading your tweets each day!
Joy,
I envy your baking skills! These would help me get through the day with my baby a lot easier. Can you help me bake a cake for my daughter’s birthday? Ah, if only I didn’t live on the East Coast.
Happy Days,
Michelle
I’ve never tried bacon with sweets but you make me want to. Yuummm…
yum, I love chocolate. I love weird combos.
Girl, you are amazing!
Sounds delicious! And just for kicks: What do the lions say before they go on a hunt? Let us prey!
lovely! i really could go for some brittle right now. gramma introduced me to it at christmas and i’ve been craving it ever since. i didn’t know what i was missing out on all these years!
Yum bacon – count me in!!
Please let me win! This site is such escapism from my normal London world…as if anybody’s world can be normal. But I love what you do Joy. Keep it up xxx
Oh! What a treat!:)
Ooh!! ooh!! Pick me!! I like bacon. :o)
Oh, yum! Joy, you’re adorable. I’ve been meaning to comment on that for a while :)
What a sweet treat! Those dragees are intriguing to say the least.
Hope the preparations for your move are going well.
Happy weekend!
Omgosh, when you posted about this earlier, I went to their website to drool. :D Thanks for the giveaway!
PS: your hair looks nice! :D
Joy, I freely admit that I read your blog every day, and love it and want to hug it and kiss it and name it George, yet rarely comment. And then, there’s a contest, and I am RIGHT THERE! Anyway, I love you all the time, contests or no, and I’m sorry I suck.
yes please! yum yum yum ;)
Ok, I just got my girl scout cookies today, so you’d think I wouldn’t need candy too…but what can I say, I’m a sugar hound. :)
Thanks Joy! These look delicious.
This candy sounds scrumptious. I am addicted to your blog! Keep up the good work!
You had me at Fleur de Sel.
Hi Joy, I’m a new follower of your blog, and absolutely love it! I think you have a talent for writing as well as baking (and I’m not just saying that so you’ll pick me.) You could also have a carrier in photography, those pictures make me hungry!
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to make a mess in the kitchen. :D
Of course you hair looks nice!
Yumm-o! What a great giveaway.
These sound great! I would love to try them :)
Come to Sacramento Joy!! Soon I will have a brand new kitchen to cook in!!
You’re hair looks WONDERFUL!
I just adore your blog, Joy. Your posts always make me smile……………and your hair is lovely. :)
I am 41 weeks pregnant and could really use some love. please?
Hey Joy! It would be a joy to eat this candy coated bacon!
Bacon candy? How interesting. Thanks for the giveaway.
Wish I could tell you my hair looks nice but it’s definitely one of those damn hair days. :)
You hair DOES look nice!! But that brittle looks like it is “to die for”…yum!! Hope I get a surprise telling me I’m a winner!!
Oh I’m hungry just looking at them!!
I adore bacon!
you are awesome. and so is your hair.
What perfectly splendid confections! :-) I’m so glad you were able to get your treasures to savor. :-)
Yum! Great giveaway!
This would be a real treat to win. These sound real interesting!!
Oh Joy. I have such a friend-crush on you, you don’t even know. Will you and your friends please please PLEASE come to Las Vegas and throw a party here, so I can join in the fun? I can show you all the great off-strip places to go!
Also, hooray for bacon!
Love,
Sarah
I really love your blog and you take awesome pics!
Hello Joy! The more sweets the better. :)
Yum! Great giveaway!
whoa…yum!
My husband thanks you because thanks to you he always has fresh baked bread :)
Hi. Your hair always looks great! (so does your blog)
Loooove it. Pick me! Pick me! I have the biggest sweet tooth of anyone I know – this would be a perfect gift to myself… from myself.
Wow, this stuff looks awesome (along, of course, with your hair). I want to play around with making some of these flavors! I made a bacon-peanut-chocolate bark for a Christmas gift that was AMAZING, and of course bacon peanut butter cookies are nirvana; peanut brittle is next!
Hi! Your hair looks niceโฆI love your site with all the yummy goodies and Oooh Happy Day!
I haven’t had peanut brittle in so long. This has got my sweet tooth moving into a whole new direction!!!
You’re such a sweetheart for giving us such sweet confections!!!
Hey Joy!
I hope you’re doing AMAZING!!! I love this site!
Hey! Great blog, absolutely fantastic. I love your recipes and your photos, although not all of the recipes turn out when I make them. :) I love your hair as well.. Did you get a new haircut? :P
Hello! Those look yummy and your tablecloth is cute!
Hi!
I’ve recently discovered your blog and I love it. From the various pictures I’ve seen, your hair always looks nice.
Thanks for the contest!
-Jill (a new fan in MN)
Hi, Have a wonderful weekend!
Hi! I want you to know that you’re blog is the perfect go-to for party planning! I’ve already used several recipes that were a big hit. Thanks Joy!!!
Thanks for the giveaway. Another great one.
Those treats look amazing!! Thanks for sharing and spreading the love to your readers. I recently found your blog through another foodie blog I read, and there’s no turning back now! : )
I love reading your site, its always bright spot in my day.
Bacon and brittle, how glorious!! Love your blog, love your hair!
Why Joy, your hair Does look nice today! What shampoo do you use?
WOW!! Looks super yummy! :o)
Yum!! Keep bringing us tasty treats! I always look forward to them :)
Hi Joy! I think something is missing from your list…pancakes! I’m trying to make my way through the amazing variety you have on your site in my kitchen. So far, everything has been delicious. My favorite as of yet has been your Dad’s Buttermilk Pancakes. Wow.
I wish you luck on moving. But soon you’ll be a hip, downtown-livin’ lady who continues to churn wonderful treats out of her kitchen. Pretty snazzy, if I may say so. :) Have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Joy-
I love that name! The candy sounds yummy-
Love your blog-
HI JOY!
You’re an inspiration to us all. Bacon & candy.
I think that is all I need to say.
Oh ya. Your hair is swell too!
I wish I could’ve had those for breakfast! And your hair looks lovely. :)
Just finished my birthday dinnner, saw your post, trying my luck. :)
Oh yeah, and your hair looks better than nice, it looks fabulous!
I’m soo tired, sorry if I come of as a suck up. Brain not functioning at normal level -.-
Vicki
MmmmmmMMmmm. Bacon! Chocolate! And salted caramel!

I’d love candy! Especially with salt. yum.
Yummmmmm! These all sound delicious…thanks for sharing!
Hi Joy! I love your hair! This candy looks pretty good, too. :D
Hi Joy! I love your blog and look forward to every new post. Thanks for sharing your love of life and baking with us!
love your site, love your cooky creations, love your hair!!
hello. your blog is soo ridiculously cute. =)
I absolutely love your blog! The first recipe I made was the Honey Cranberry Cornmeal Quick Bread and it was delicious. Since then I’ve baked up several of your recipes and they’ve all been wonderful. Thank you!
love your blog. always refreshing to read. and I’ve tried many of your recipes with great results!!!
Oh! This makes my heart smile :)
Joy, you rock! That candy looks fantastic!
Ode to Joy
I love to check your blog each day
And see the goodies of delight
Such visual delectables โ
Digestion for eyes and bellies!
What foray!
I wear your cookies on my thighs
Your breads, how they do satisfy
I sip your soups in silent solitude โ
Magnificent culinary!
My soul sighs!
Well, I love your blog and I am going to also say I love your hair because compliments are always nice to receive.
Whenever I check your site, I always find myself googling the products you talk about, or writing down your recipes, and just can’t believe how interesting the recipes are that you come up with and the things you find. Dangit, I want to not live in a rural little GA town. Not fair! hahaha! Thanks for opening my eyes to new things. I appreciate it!
Yum! That fleur de sel and peanut one sounds amazing!
And I can’t tell what your hair looks like today, but in those road trip pics, your hair looked wonderful! I’m envious. I hate you. You know, in that girly, envious way. :)
ooooo, this sounds fabulous! i’ve been without my computer for almost two weeks and i’ve been desperately missing your blog. i love what you do…all of it! keep them coming!
Your hair looks great! And I love bacon…..
mmmmmm. bacon. love your site. :)
Mouthwatering.
Bacon + Chocolate = Peace on Earth
I thought of your move today when I was cleaning out a closet. I’m not moving, but I’m making space. And reorganizing. And those are the best parts of a move. Good luck!
I love that you love bacon, and candy, and us… but I also love free things!
These seem way taster than the bacon ‘mints’ currently being shared around my office.
Also, I love your blog :)
“Your hair looks nice” ;)
Ok that was easy.
The fleur de sel brittle looks very VERY tantalizing…
By the way I baked your honey whole wheat pound cake and it was a hit :)
I just wanted to say hi and let you know that my friend turned me on to you and I am so glad she did!! I haven’t gotten the chance to make anything that you have posted yet (I have a 5 month old that just started rolling around the house!), but there are so many things that I cannot wait to try!
Hi Joy!
I just got back from Brooklyn and ate some amazing handmade beer and pretzel salted caramels made by Liddabit Sweets. I am bummed that I passed on their bacon caramel corn. Maybe i can redeem myself with some Morning glory confections?
Keep the posts coming! Love your blog.
Joy, you’re an inspiration! Love the blog.
Joy! I have this obsession with Bacon!! and your blog too. :)
Bacon is the way to a man’s heart! And bacon in candy form? Heaven!
You’re a gorgeous lady! :)
You’re gorgeous, talented, funny, and smart…and you share with others. Perfection! ;)
Hello Joy! I must say you’ve inspired me to pursue this cooking thing professionally! I run my own home made sushi business and always try to incorporate some fun ideas into my work.. i too think it’s not important to go to culinary school to be good at cooking and baking!
I stumbled onto your web page a few days ago and I fell in love with baking! I am a savory kinda girl and i LOVE to cook, I am always trying to cook up something new but when it comes to baking i just humbly walk out of the kitchen! the idea of waiting is not very appealing to me and that has been a problem in other areas as well..
So, I am proud to say, as a person who knows nothing about baking and think i need to go to culinary school to “deserve” a chance to do this professionally,,, I JUST BAKED BREAD!! it was you’re bread and butter recipe, but i am trying to lose weight so instead i used half white flour and half wheat flour! and i must say i didnt do waiting well, and i skipped about 20 minutes of the waiting but it was a success!! :D I am never buying bread from the store again! why when i can do it at home!
I love to experiment on my own, so i will be doing LOADS of that from now on..
Thank you so much, truly you’ve inspired me. I bookmarked your page sweety.. keep going!
Hi Joy! My you are lookin’ BEEEAUUUTIFUL today ;-) And boy do these treats look tasty!!
Love you and love your blog! I make candy, but nothing like this. Would love to win.
Hi Joy –
I don’t usually comment, but you lured me out with the temptation of bacon, but I do want you to know your blog often inspires me to bake, teaches me or reminds me of tips and tricks that I never knew or forgot about, and most importantly you always make me smile when I read your blog.
Your energy always shines through and since I’m all sniffly today it’s especially appeciated.
hi joy~! i heart bacon and candy too :)
and your hair looks nice~!
I just recently found your blog and quickly became a fan! Love your recipes and stories!!!
Bacon candy? Sounds delicous!
Hi Joy, thanks for the opportunity to win that beautiful candy! I hope you’re having fun moving into your new apartment.
Hello! I’m new to your blog, and love it!!!
it all sounds very interesting….Never would think to try bacon mixed with any of that, LOL! Love your blog and all of your musings :-)
Joy, your hair is inspiring. Just lovely. That curl there by your ear? Darling. :)
Thanks for the chance to win!
Mmm, the fleur de sel peanut brittle sounds amazing!
Joy!! I am addicted to this blog. I made your Lemon Glazed Spice Cake awhile back and have been hooked ever since. You’re a goddess.
Your hair looks nice, my hair looks nice, but my mouth will explode with goodness with CANDY !!!!!!
Hi, I love reading your blog, and the fact that I can take any recipe from here and make it, and it’s guaranteed to work. The avacado pound cake and the honey whole wheat pound cake are both on my list of things to make soon. I also have caught your obsession with pancakes, and have been making them for my family weekly. So far we’ve eaten the pumpkin and the gingerbread pancakes. :) Tomorrow is sourdough…
Thought I’d come out of lurking for the prospect of intriguingly-flavored chocolates!
And I’ve been meaning to send thankful vibes: my birthday was last weekend and I made my own cake, thanks to your recipe! A double layer (it’s only my second experiment with layer cakes, didn’t get quite ambitious enough to do a triple!) with your best ever chocolate buttercream frosting. And everyone loved it :) Especially me!
Good luck with the moving adventures!
Glad I checked your posts today! And happy not to see any combo involving corned beef and chocolate. Ick. But yum to the others!
Hi Joy! Love you, love your blog. I just read two books by Jennifer Weiner in which there is a character named Joy! The first is called Good in Bed and the second is called Certain Girls. They’re pretty good. I always enjoy reading books with characters who have my name. Maybe you will too?
You’re awesome! Have a nice day!
Hi! Love your blog (and your hair DOES look nice–I have stick straight asian hair and am totally jealous of people with curly hair!). And I love candy. And bacon. Thanks for a chance to win some candy with bacon in it!
Mmm, brittle…
Hi Joy! I love your blog. Everything always looks sooo good. You’re my inspiration!
You have to post a picture of your hair today for us to compliment! I love the blog!! Although I think another good cookie recipe needs to be posted soon (hint hint) :)
not only does your hair look fabulous, that skirt is adorable and those shoes! are they new? i mean, girl…you got it going on today. plus, your blog is fan-tas-tic! i’ve made your bread AND those s’mores brownies, who thought of those, they are so yummy. i check your blog like every day. :)
Love your hair, your eyes, Oh…and your blog. Bacon in candy? Really!?! I’d love to try any of these products.
Wow these look amazing! Love your blog :)
Ohhh isn’t that a rocking dress you’re wearing today?!?!? :)
Hi! Your hair looks pretty. :)
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm….bacon……………*drool*
Love your blog, love your hair!
Hi, Joy! I love your blog- and my friends and roommate love that I love your blog. My friends’ favorite are your oatmeal blueberry applesauce muffins, and my mother adores your lemon cloud tea cookies! Thanks for all of the recipes!
Hope your move went well. Love your blog!
Hey! Just made your sugar pie, perfect for a sweet craving on a rainy day when I don’t to shop for ingredients. :-) Thanks!
Your hair is gorgeous! …and your site is great too!
The next time I’m in LA, I’m definitely going on a search for this place!
Love those flavor combinations.
These sound like great confections – may have to make a trip to LA just to find this place.
Hi Joy! Hope you’re settling in your new place alright… Love your blog! And your good hair day… ;-)
Hi Joy!
This is a great giveaway!
Hi Joy,
The goodies look yummy and your hair looks great.
Hi Joy! I wanted to say hi and let you know how you’ve inspired me to bake outside my comfort zone. Thanks!
Hi Joy!
Love your blog! Your hair looks nice :)
Hi Joy! Planning to make your avocado pound cake this weekend. The cupcakes were so delicious and I imagine this will be too. Thank you for sharing your tasty recipes!
These look very interesting, and tasty, too! Lucky you’re having such a good hair day (:
Oh boy. Can I just say *drool* how good this looks!
Joy, you’re beautiful!
Hi Joy! I hope the moving is going okay! I’d LOOVE to win the candy!
Hey Joy!
Love your blog and I love your recipes!
Hope moving and such has gone well for you.
I’m looking forward to some lovely spring baking recipes.
I try never to turn down an offer for free candy. Looks yummy!
Just saying hi! And I love your your blog!
yum!! you blog is awesome!
Bacon in sweets? My heart just stopped. That sounds amazing!
I love your blog and your recipes haven’t let me down once. Your black and white cookies are my favourite.
I always look forward to your blog entries. As for me, I think you have GREAT eyes and hair!
Triathletes and bacon go together like peas and carrots!
I hope you love your new place. How is the kitchen?
Some people frown upon bacon in sweets but I think it can be dlish! I just had a pancake cupcake with maple frosting and bacon recently and it was wonderful.
hi Joy! If I need a sweet yummy delicious recipe your always my first choice! thanks!
Wow, those look AWESOME!! How unique!!
Must admit, I’ve never tried bacon in sweet things.
Love your blog, and salty and sweet, yum!!
I stumbled onto your website about 6 months ago looking for ice cream recipes. I sat here for about an hour drooling and calling my BF over to the computer to ask “doesn’t this look good?!” about 20 times. I’ve made more recipes off of this site then any other site (including Martha and shes my hero!).
Thanks for such an awesome baking website. Now if you could only publish a website with your daily exercise routine I could maybe be as fit as you are after baking all this stuff!
Yom. I think your hair is lovely. Mine is curly, too, but it’s short and sassy instead of long and foxy. We curly girls need to stick together. Gimme some sugar.
Oooh…BACON! Have you tried Mo’s bacon chocolate bar? Holy crikey, it’s awesome. I found it at Cost Plus World Market…super yum. PS…Happy Friday!!
Hello Joy! The treats sound incredible. Even if I don’t win, I think I’ll be getting some :)
WOW your hair looks really good.
Auntie JoJo
Wowzers! Those look yummy :)
Stumbled across the website somehow (clickity-clicking around food blogs) and I LOVE it! Is it possibly that a food blog is actually HELPING stay on my diet? I feel satisfied by just looking at your recipes and pictures!!! Thanks!
I just wanted to say “Thank you!” I’m the talk of my in-laws because of your cinamon/sugar biscotti. Thanks! (and your hair looks nice!)
looks yummy!
Bacon!? could this be considered breakfast or brunch? These sound quite yummy. Thanks for your site and recipes.
Sounds yummy!!
Sounds like an amazing pregnancy snack – bacon + candy + nuts = midnight craving ! And as an 8 month pregnant woman I would be HAPPY to test it out for you :0)
PS ~ You’re hair does actually look really nice in the “On The Lamb” post.
I want some! By the way, I’m really enjoying your blog.
I love your blog and the sunshine you put into your posts! It brings me joy to read it and make your recipes. And your hair is beautiful! :)
Thanks for thinking of us! I really enjoy your recipes.
OOoooOOhhhhh…. yum!
Seriously, WOW to the number of comments. Of course you do have a great blog. Love your stuff, and you sure take some great pictures of it all!
I would love to try some of these sweets! Gotta love something sweet.
So heres my comment to add to the fishbowl. =)
Hi Joy!
I love your site. It is definitely my go to place when I need to find delicious recipes!
Wow, those are some odd combinations. Looking at their website, the “chai tea and cashew” looks interesting. It seems like a lot of their stuff is to pack a punch of something weird. XD Btw, I’ve been slowly doing your recipes one by one. Parker House Rolls are this weekend. XD And don’t kill me, I took some of your recipes and organized them into one-page printouts to make my life easier. XD
For example, I made these sugar cookies like fifty times already. XD

Funny thing happened in the loast month or so…I have started 4 different dishes with bacon,mmm bacon.
you’re hair looks nice
I want some candy!!!!!! You always look nice, by the way!
Hey Joy, LOVE your blog!!! Thanks for turning me on to this place, just in time for my Dad’s birthday. I think this will win him over.
I’ve always been intrigued by bacon in candy but never got around to trying it. I’ve never eaten anything with bacon that I didn’t love!
Hi Joy,
I was looking for a pound cake recipe ’cause I had never made one before…well I went to your blog and SHAZAMM! It was the best pound cake I’ve ever eaten, down to the last crumb. I could hardly believe I made it myself!!! No more Dunkin Hines for me! Thanks for that 7 ingredient perfect cake. Congrats on the move. Enjoy your new place. Your hair looks great…even on a bad hair day!!!
love the cute little white dishes AND the brittle looks fabulouso! :)
Does it help that I recently made my friend a six foot bacon scarf, because we love bacon so? (it was presented with maple bacon cupcakes!)
Joy the Baker is my favorite food blog!!!
Bacon candy??? YES. Your hair looks good and you smell nice, Joy.
where did you get that fantastic tablecloth/placemat??
cheers,

Yum! Those look amazing!!

Ooooh, fancy giveaway! How delightful!
And Joy, your hair ALWAYS looks rad. :)
Hi Joy. Love your blog. Keep the recipes coming!
Joy, came upon your blog last night, spent many, many hours perusing it. You are a very talented young woman and I was very impressed with fantastic blog! This blog, now, is right up there on my list of favorites along with David Lebovitz, Rachel Eats, The Wednesday Chef and The Italian Dish.
Keep up the awesome work, your talents will not go unnoticed. I see a bright future for you!

Joy, you are so lovely and I dig your tattoo. :-)
Mmm. Candy for breakfast. Sounds awesome.
Um, wow! Everything looks so delicious. I’m on the outskirts of LA; I might have to check this place out!
Lovely Joy – I fully condone brittle for breakfast – it even has a nice alliteration to it, so it can’t be wrong! My school is starting spring break and I will be filling my time by baking lots of your yummy recipes. Thanks for brightening my morning!
Love to win some goodies!
Hi Joy!!! This candy looks amazing, I want some! I love your site soooo much, I have made so many of your recipes and they never fail!
How are your new digs? Hope you’re settling in well. Love the blog.
OHH delicious combinations. How much fun is that? Bacon and chocolate together. I am hardpressed to find anyone anywhere that can tell me one single edible item on earth that wouldn’t be enhanced by either bacon, or chocolate. So putting them together only makes sense. Yes!
yay candy! also, you look lovely today. heh.
You really are truly fabulous!
Looks good. Love you blog and your hair.
Your hair looks good. ;-)
And, uh, when do we get to see your spankin new downtown digs???
Hi Joy,
Baking alway intimidated me until I worked up the resolve to try your pumpkin cookies. I’ve baked something every week since. Sometimes it’s delicious, sometimes it’s not, but it’s definitely always fun.
My roommate is also very appreciate of my new hobby. Thanks for the recipes and the inspiration!
PS I’d love to try that brittle :)
I love your blog! It’s so inspiring for my own baking. Thanks for all you do!
Mmm, bacon.
I like your hair, Joy. (Even though we no longer get to see it!)
Hi Joy. Love your posts. Love your writing. Love that you’re giving away candy…with BACON!
Hello Joy! Your hair looks nice :)
Also, you and your blog inspire me and make my days a little bit brighter. Thank you.
Oh, those sound so delicious! Pick me please!
MMMMMMM………. the candy sounds exquisite! I do like to see your blog. Your hair is good, too! lol
I just discovered your blog and I LOVE it! I brings out that baker in all of us. Thanks so much for sharing with us. :)
Bacon and chocolate sounds like the most amazing combination ever. Yum!!
Joy! Your blog has totally made me popular in my college dorm. People STILL tell me how much they loved the pumpkin chocolate chip cookies I made last fall, and your recipe for devil’s food chocolate cake with raspberries won the cake category in the dorm bake-off! Thank you, Joy!
Joy, I love your website. Your chocolate peanut butter icecream ROCKS!
Hello, love. Your blog puts a smile on my face.
Your tablecloth is beautiful.
These all look delicious! I love bacon :)
The treats look delicious!
Btw, your hair looks VERY nice today.
I LOVE FOOD!! More so I love trying out new recipes, despite sometimes failing :P
I am glad to find someone else who likes sport and cooking!!
Keep posting :) xx
hey dear joy! i think you’re splendid. it’s a poopy rainy day out here in nyc, but you’re blog is full of sunshine!
Hello there! I just discovered your blog. Hello, fabulous! I love all your recipes! I made the Strawberry Southern Cake last week for a party. It was so successful! Although I can’t eat bacon and never have (Kosher..wah wah wah)… I’m sure these are yummy and fabulous! If you have a jew friendly one, I’ll be here! Keep baking, lovely lady. I’ll be reading! :)
xoxo,
Leah
Wow, who would have thought of the combinations of some of the candy. Yum!

Hey, Joy.. hi… Your hair looks spectacular… Always did… Always does… I hope that makes you feel good, because I want that brittle!!!! mmmmm hmmmmmm…. That’s right.. you gonna hve to ship it all the way to Miami… and if you pour little droplets f cyanide on it, I will be very upset… Dead, but upset…
;)
I am glad things are going well for ya, and that little sis is in a cool city doing her thing… (You know Seattle will always have a dear place in my heart!!!)
Cheers,
Danny
Joy. You’re fabulous. I think we should be best friends. We could sit around, bake bread, have a drink, braid each other’s hair, and share lifelong secrets.
I’m just sayin’.
Your hair always looks nice, even when you might think it doesn’t. :)
I’d love to try some of these confections!
That looks awesome!! Thanks for the chance to win!
Your hair does look fab – one can tell at one glance that you are a strong and powerful woman who, with one keystroke can put someone into brittle nirvana!
Love the blog! Thanks for making me smile!
YUM! They all look great. Hope we get one:)
Hi Joy! I made your peanut butter blondies with milk chocolate frosting last night and they were outstanding. They tasted even better for breakfast this morning. Thanks for the great recipes!
morning glory will NEVER be a term used to describe me, but their products sound great. :)
Hi!
I really enjoy your blog, and these candies look amazing.
Hi.
You look Mah-vah-lus! Simply Mah-vah-lus Dahling!
Is it wrong that I really want to eat bacon candy? No? I didn’t thinks so either.
Hi Joy! You make me want to move to a new city, find a new place, start new endeavors, and you make me wish I had a sister. Somehow, winning candy is going to fix all of this for me. Right?
Your blog is a total bright spot in my day! Loving the pictures of all that you bake and share with us!
They all sound delicious!
You look fabulous! Have you lost a little weight? Your looking good, Joy! And I’m not just saying that because I want to win. But I do want to win! ;)
Hey Joy!!!
LOVE your blog, I check it evey day, and make lots of yummy treats.
Making the double chocolate and peanut butter ice cream tonight.
Hope the move goes well, maybe you can send the baby sock to one of the candy winners!
Heather
Your aprons are amazing.
And your baking concoctions are the bomb!
Hey Joy! I always click here to have a cyber feast. :)
I can’t help myself. The dragรฉes sound like and remind me deeply of les larmes de Jeanne d’Arc, one of my all-time favorite Norman treats. Here’s hoping!!!
those candies look and sound amazing.
if i don’t win and even if i do i should go hunt them down next time i am in LA
Joy! So many food blogs, so little time. Your blog is on my favorite list. And your hair is very nice too. Thanks.
Oh my goodness these sound so much better than the breakfast I’m eating right now! Yes please! :)
Heyyyy cookie. I heart you…and I heart bacon, just sayin’
Hi Joy!
Hope the move is going well :) You always look Fab and your recipes and blog routinely make my day. And btw, bacon makes everything better!
All the Best
Alicia
Those look delightful! (Just like you!)
Om nom nom nom curry brittle looks deeleecious. :3

You always look mahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhvalous!
Hello! Your hair always looks lovely! (:D)
Bacon and cashews? It must be mine!
I love everything that you love! Including candy with salty smokey flavors… delicious!
I also love combinations of savory and sweet flavors- just another post of so, so many that leaves me inspired. Cheers!
Hi Joy! I’ve been a silent reader for a while now. Love, love, love your blog!!! All of these confections sound delicious! FYI, I just love your writing style… :)

Lovely giveaway! Looks fantastic :D
Hi Joy!
I’ve just recently found your blog and I love it!
It’s so nice to see people out there appreciating baking and sweets. =)
Hi Joy! Your hair is fab! :) I love your website. I’m a newbie reader of your site (just started over a month ago), but I LOVE it! I used to live in Irvine until recently. Now, I’m hundreds of miles away. Anyway, these confections look divine! I’m always up to trying new flavors. I’d love to win these! :)
I think you’re a great sister to your sister! I love reading about your stories together…
And this is a great little contest – those treats sound uniquely amazing!!
I made those peanut butter blondies with mocha frosting you posted awhile back. I chopped up some dark chocolate peanut butter cups to add to the batter. Everyone raved!
Bacon, bacon, bacon. Great giveaway!
Yum! That brittle sounds SUPERB
do you really read ALL theses comments??? there are sooo many!!!
Bacon + Something Sweet = Love
A friend has taken to splashing hickory ginger marinade and sprinkling some brown sugar over his bacon before cooking. OH SO GOOD. :)
I was sick a couple days ago and some of the only things I wanted to eat were bacon, and chocolate. I’d love to try them together!
ehehehe
you are sooooooo funny! :))
i love your blog!
congrats!
Hi Joy! I love reading your blog, you take beautiful pictures! Everything makes me hungry…especially the brittle!
I love your blog….have enjoyed your recipes and new ideas.
Good luck with your move! Sometimes a sweet treat is what we need to start our day :)
i just randomly watched your podcast for the first time. it was adorable! you should do more :)
Hey Joy! Loved your recent roadtrip photos! Looks like you and your sis had a blast :)
Almond and bacon sounds like an awesome combination!
Hair looks AMAZING!!! I will have to check this place out!

Your hair looks great. I bet it looks even better when you’re eating bacon brittle for breakfast.
Joy, you always look fab and you are correct, Bacon rocks! Now lets hope I win. ;-)
Love your blog! Thanks for sharing your recipes and your humor!!
YUM! These look amazing.
And of course you always make all of our days!!
Looks top notch….I would live some.
NOMNOMNOM Bacon! I will eat anything with bacon in it, especially brittle!
Your giveaway looks delicious! I made your peanut butter bacon cookies a few weeks ago. They were amazing. I gave them to my friends. You’ve made many people very happy. With bacon!
Did I hear someone mention bacon??? Mmmmm…
Joy, I discovered your jewel of a baking blog a few months ago and am continually inspired by your creativity, style, and the inner warmth that you imbibe all of your posts with. There are times that I catch myself salivating over your photos — but, perhaps most importantly, I love that you’ve helped me kick me out of my “baking rut”.
Keep up the amazing work, and good luck with your move!
Hmm never had the guts to try a confection with bacon in it, I really should be braver! Thanks for sharing your candy discoveries with us!
Thanks so much for getting candies for us! I would love to try those!
Omgz. They look soooo good. ALL of them. There has never been a better combo than candied pig!!!!
Spanish paprika brittle!?! Sounds amazing.
Would love to win one of these!
hiii ! i love your hair :)) but more so i love your blog, thanks for a really fun blog to read and btw i can totally relate to eating those dragees for breakfast, its normal ! :)
Ohhhhh yum! I’m attempting to make the avocado poundcake this weekend, btw. Also attempting to make cake balls. Yum!
xo
These all look awesome! Thank you for sharing all of your great recipes!
I love your blog, your food and your hair- I wish I had your or your sister’s hair!!!!! Congrats on a wonderful blog!!!
Love your site
making the EASY chocolate crissants and the Crustless quiche w/spinach and mushrooms for breakfast tomorrow
Wow, these look awesome! I’m a huge fan of the whole sweet and salty mixture!
haha, well if it’s hair compliments that you want, it’s hair compliments that you’ll get! :) I’m sure yours is fabulous.
I love candy for breakfast and boy could I use some I was suppose to go to a weekend retreat with no kids when my poor little three year old got the flue so I get to stay home. Not to make you feel like I should win the candy (although if it works…) Thanks for the great blog brightens my day.
Jessie
Joy,
You have sensational taste – in hairstyles and in sweets. Thanks for your delightful posts and fun giveaways!
Good luck with the move!
Jennifer
I love you site – and I would love to share those treats with my bacon lovin man!
You’re quarky and I love reading your blog. Thanks for sharing yourself with us! :) Have a great weekend.
one thing i love: people who can create candy w/out losing patience 3/4 through the process…such as myself;) hope the move is going smoothly!
I would love to win and nosh on these! *I’m in a goofy friday mood so please forgive me*…As all I want to do is go *nom nom nom* : P
YUM!
looove this contest and your amazing blog.
Being at work is such a drag….what I would give to be able to see how lovely your hair is today. I bet it is a million times better than mine. But then again I do have the warm tropical air to give it a blow dry in the morning….so I guess I don’t have that much to complain about.
Hey Joy!! LOVE your posts! Hope your sister is enjoying her new place! HAVE AN AWESOME DAY!!!
Hi!
I recently discovered your blog and I love it! Those yummy treats look wonderfully delicious and I hope I get some. Keep enjoying food and life!
These things look scrumptious! And everything else on your website too!
I love anything with bacon!
i want your hair… so jealous! :)
Your blog rocks! Yummy
You look Mah-velous! And I think it’s the hair that pulls it all together.
Oh, and I love candy.
Your hair ALWAYS looks nice and so do you!!! Congrats on your move (& your sisters too). Love your blog :)
Hi Joy!
These look amazing. There’s nothing like homemade candy. Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
Those sound perfect for those pms-y days. Sweet and salty with crunch, yum. Thanks for sharing!
This is the perfect giveaway. Candy = awesome. Bacon = awesome. Bacon + Candy = mindblowing awesomeness.
Plus – I love your tablecloth.
Those look delicious. I’m of the mindset that if it looks that good, and has normal sounding ingredients in it, it can’t be that bad for you (and thus is good breakfast food).
But I’m sitting here eating candied ginger for breakfast, so i’m not sure i have room to talk.
Winning some creative confections would certainly brighten my weekend!
love your site — visit often all the way from georgia!! thanks for the giveaway!! : )
pick me, pick me!
TASTY AS ALWAYS! I love following your adventures!
good luck moving!
It’s a Friday during Lent, but I love bacon any other day of the week!
Hi There – TGIF! What a unique confection shop – super cool. Keep the awesome posts and amazing recipes coming. Enjoy your weekend. :-)
Rarely have I seen such great-looking hair! I’d love to sample those intriguing Morning Glory treats.
Thanks,
Foodelf
i think your hair is great :)
in a crazy household with a crazy amount of crazy sick kids, your blog and recipes are bright spots in my day!
Thanks for hosting this giveaway! Hope the move went well!
I’d really love to try something from Morning Glory!
Your hair is nice. I love the curls. And I love your blog. I’ve made lots of your recipes with loads of success.
hey! love your blog! hope moving is going good!
This candy looks great. I guess it tastes wonderful as well. Love your blog!
PS I would eat the brittle for breakfast as well. :0
HEY JOY!! Are you all moved in or still packing (or not packing)?
I look forward to reading up on your website as part of my morning routine. Maybe it is the design layout…. but I love the pictures!
Wowza……..bacon, cashew and brittle all rolled up into one? dangerous but DELICIOUS!!
Hi, your posts make my day and inspire me to get in my kitchen and create (if it’s only your recipes)!
Would love to try these lovely concoctions!
thanks for being a fabulously hip writer & baker…you make wyoming winters brighter :)

i’ll blow my diet to try these… mmmmm… bacon! who doesn’t love bacon?
I love bacon (who doesn’t) and of course candy, so it’s gotta be good, right? Win me some!
BTW, you are having a Great Hair Day! :)
1. I am sure your hair is beeeeyoootiful today :)
2. I think it was really nice that you drove your sister to Seattle. I hope she is settling in!
3. All of that candy looks incredible.
Ooooooo…yummy!
Ooooh! Your hair looks divine today! And those candies sound fabulous – how very kind and generous of you to share! :)
Happy Friday!
Hi…your hair does look nice…bacon in candy, my husband would be in heaven he is always telling me everything taste better with bacon!!!
My husband is a pork magnet. I think we would really enjoy any of these treats! :)
Whoever thought to turn nuts into candy is a genius…and Joy, it is the perfect breakfast food, why not make it lunch and dinner too?! It all looks simply delectable.
Your hair looks nice! :) And… I would totally eat those for breakfast, too!
If it includes bacon it is a perfectly acceptable breakfast eat :)
Yum, yum, yum! Thanks for sharing!
Mmmm bacon!!
If you haven’t seen it, you must go to YouTube and search for “Bacon is good for me” (regular and remix). It’s funny an cute and will make your Friday. I mean let’s be honest, bacon IS good for me!!
Joy — i love your site. i know i tell you everytime i leave a comment, but i mean it everytime. i’ve never made one of your recipes without it being life changing. for example, last night i made your healthy banana bread recipe and was a little, ummm, concerned at how short it was. and then i ate some. and my life was changed. holy moley goodness.
ps — i made mine with a toasted almond oil…yummm
Thanks for introducing this company. I think I want to order one of everything!
I don’t judge you for eating Almond and Bacon Dragees for breakfast. If I had anything so divine in my kitchen right now, I would most certainly eat them for breakfast as well. And you take pretty pictures!
Mmmm… candy. I don’t think you can ever be too old to love it! You are sweet for doing this giveaway!
Joy, you make me smile. :) you are a very talented writer, not to mention a fabulous baker!
Sounds yummy!
Mmm, bacon. Geez, looks like I’m not the only gal that thinks so. Great giveaway, Joy! Fingers crossed.
Hello! I love your blog and look forward to reading new posts! And I’m sure your hair looks fantastic. :)
Joy, you are adorable and so is your blog! My favorite spot on the web :)
mmmm….bacon and chocolate. YUMM!
Your warmth comes through in your blog. You are a beautiful person inside and out!
…oh.
oh yes.
you know how to make a girl feel better on the last day of a not so great, very long week!
PS–your hair is great, but your freckles are the best!
pick me! pick me! these sound so scrumptious! :-) and yes, your blog rocks!!
Yummy! Go BACON!
Considering how good bacon+chocolate goes together, count me in!
Thanks for brightening my Google Reader account with every new post!

Joy,
They sounds great!!!
Thanks for the great blog, i am here every day!!
bill

P.S. Good luck on the move!
Those all sound so delicious! Thanks for offering this giveaway. You’re so generous (yes, I am sucking up).
Yum! These sound delish. Love your blog–and your pancakes!
Thanks a lot!
I love ur blog. You have a quirky personality that is hilarious. I used to live in California and I miss it terribly. I relish anything that comes from there. Oh by the way your hair looks great ;)
I thought when you wrote “You. I think you’re awfully swell” said something about “you and how awful you smell”!!
Anyway, those candies look pretty yum and I agree, candy + bacon = awesomeness. Even for brekky. :P
wow, look at all these responses. we must be some truly candy lovin’ folk!! It think it is cool how you know about these special little shops and can share them with us. I only wish you lived in the Bay Area, so I could meet you for coffee and some fabulous baked goods as you tell me all the shops I should try out! Wouldn’t that be fun! Winning the candy from “your part of town” would be just as fabulous! Thanks for writing this blog and keeping us inspired!! :) Go bacon and chocolate!!
Me, me, please! I’ve had these once before and they are SO very yummy! Too bad I live so far away or I’d stop by weekly and get some.
Your blog is a treat…especially loved the post about helping your sister move to Seattle. Great pics!
You are awesome! :)
Hi! I bet your hair does look lovely =]
Bacon/paprika/cashew?! HELL to the yeah! I’ve got to try and make me some of that…
What’s the story Morning Glory! Mmmm mmmm mmmmm!Chocolatey bacony goodness!? And for breakfast, nonetheless!! Brilliant!
Mmmm, I like candy also. I also like bacon. I make things with special ingredients, so we can be friends. Two friends with pretty hair and mad kitchen skillz. :)
Bacon and Candy…two of my favourite things..Mmmmm. LOVE your hair today!!!
Hi. What interesting combinations! Sounds delightful. Bacon makes anything wonderful!!
I wish I was in LA and could stop by! I hope I win!!
omg those all sound amazing!! btw – I think I’m going to try your Lemon whoopie pies this weekend… I’ve got leftover lemon juice and zest from another recipe and I want to use it! :)
Happy day indeed! Mmmmm I love Fleur de Sel in my sweets. And the bacon sounds so yummilicous.
I wish I won :)
OMG that look so good, I love bacon candy!
joy, you had me at bacon.

Joy, your blog makes my day!
I love your recipes – your blog is a constant source of inspiration and I make sure to pass on the benefits to my neighbor and family. I actually baked the S’Mores Brownies for a women’s game night this evening…can’t wait to see how they like it!
Hi Joy, your hair is beautiful! Seriously, I’d give my arm for curls like yours! Mmmmmmm, bacon + candy! Sounds divine!
I want to be grossed out by the names of these, but they actually sound really good!!
Bacon and candy. I knew I liked you. Have a great weekend.
Bacon and candy?! Sweet!! And you look fabulous!!
i have an obsession with your website. haha regardless of if i win any candy, which my family would probably devour, i just wanted to let you know :)
and, i’m going through all your entries because i need to explore LA more! :)
Hubby says “Looks good, anything with bacon is good. Do we have any bacon?”
Hi Joy the baker love your website (for reals) and thanks for the chance to win some candy…Brightest blessings to you and yours…e*
I can haz bacon candy please?
Your hair looks good. (I’m just saying that to be nice. I don’t actually know what your hair looks like today.)
These sound interesting and yummy. Love your recipes.
Share Share Share How spicy of you. What a treat. Thanks sounds yummy.
Bacon & candy makes me nervous but I trust you.
So delicious!
hi, sweet Joy!
Bacon and nuts, bacon and sugar…it’s all good. And it looks like breakfast to me!! Love your blog, you are so inspiring. I feel your packing pain, I start my move today. Oh, and your hair…just fab!
yum!! did you see the chile pepita candy? it looks like i may just have to order some!
Yum! And of course you’re beautiful. More so for eating candy for breakfast.
You are an adventurous inspiration to me, in so many ways!
Looks yummy! Good luck with your move!
Definitely nothing wrong with candy for breakfast!
I’m 38 weeks pregnant, and I can’t even tell you how delicious some bacon candy sounds right now…
I found you through Ree Drummond’s recommendations and am so happy I did! Your style and recipes are so enjoyable. (that brittle looks so delicious.)
Who doesn’t love candy.
OO, very excited. Bacon + sweet works for me. (I’m one of those people who ‘accidentally’ pours extra syrup on the plate so I can mop it up with bacon. :)
Wow, those looks awfully tasty!
Thank you for your wonderful posts and recipes. They always brighten my day.
Your hair DEFINITELY looks nice, Joy. Really. As does your cooking!
I’ve been reading your blog for about 3-4 months now once finding it through another food blog. I love all your recipes, pictures and stories. Definitely one of my favorites!
Piping hot coffee, fuzzy slippers and a “good morning” purr and lick from my Siamese Mimi make me happiest! Fingers crossed for some brittle.
Ooo, these sound wonderful!
Bacon candy? I’d have to see (taste) it to believe it!
Hi Joy!
Greetings from Bainbridge Island WA!
I was thinking this morning…as I was frying a piece of Canadian Bacon…how the aroma of bacon just COZIES up a kitchen!
I know these delicasies are delightful!
Now let’s talk HAIR!!!
Yours have never looked so GOOD! ;o)
Here’s wishing you many fabulous HAPPY HAIR DAYS!!!!
Oh…and if you won’t good hair days…
do not move to the Northwest! ;o)
xxooxx
Oh how I would just ADORE winning this scrumptious bit of confection from Joy the Baker! xo
Joy – I just started following you a few months ago, and have thoroughly enjoyed your posts – way up here in Canada! Nice hair by the way…
I enjoyed reading about your trip to Seattle recently and meant to send you the link for a Calgary based blogger who regularly travels to Seattle and has all sorts of wonderful food haunts. Send me a note if you’re interested in passing these on to your sis.
Would love to try these treats – they sound so yummy. Can I tell you that I went to a farm table dinner recently in Banff where they served pork – nose to tail (meaning they used all parts of the pig – for all 5 courses of the meal – including dessert)! Flourless chocolate cake – with little chewy bacon bits inside, served with maple ice cream and a very thin piece of bacon garnish. It was delish; it was decadent.
I gave up baking for Lent, but I can’t wait to try some of the stuff you’ve posted recently!
Can I come bake with you sometime? I don’t usually invite myself over to people’s houses, but… You’re awesome. (Just kidding. Well, about the coming over part. Not about you being awesome.) Thank you for the amazing recipes, for witty prose, and most of all, for sharing. If you weren’t sharing, this wouldn’t be any fun for us… I can hear it now… “I made these amazing cupcakes today but you can’t have any!” Thanks for not being mean :)
i’m from spain… spanish, i need the spanish candy, neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed…
i have to say i was wondering what joy would surprise me with today… well no recipe, but a giveaway is always a surprise!
The combination sounds good…fingers crossed!!!
Hooray! I love bacon, too!
I like your tat.
Hey, I would have made dinner for you and your
sister if I’d known you were comin’ to my town, Seattle.
There is nothing wrong with chocolate for breakfast! ;) Yum!
ok first things first
Your hair looks nice. :) You make me smile :)
and the Almond and Bacon Dragees I think will make me swoon….
sigh
Fleur de sel peanut brittle? holy heck. i’m in. / thanks for such a fabulous contest! (and i always love your hair!) :)
I always come away from your blog with another recipe to try. Thanks!
i LOOO-OOOVE Bacon combos! Although I don’t need anymore sweets. Oh well!
Wow! These look amazing! Am very curious to try! Oh – and your hair looks terrific ;-)_
Your blog is delicious and I check it way more often than I know you post, but it’s just in case I miss something….
Your giveaway reminds me that I want to try this Bacon Praline recipe in one of the Food and Wine compilation books
Happy Friday!
Bacon, butter, sugar and carbs are the nectar of life and just make my life better. In addition to that I have been a lifetime artist but have just recently been tapping into the culinary arts and you have been such an inspiration to me. Thanks for everything!
Ooh, interesting combination. I’d love to try these. :)
Of course your hair looks nice. I’ve always adored curly hair. :)
And just so you know, I’ve favorited almost every recipe you’ve ever posted. ^_^
Hi. Your hair looks nice.
I LOVE chocolate!
BACON! BACON! BACON! BACON! I feel like the dog on the beggin strips commercial. It would be super-swell if I was lucky enough to win this contest. Oh, by the way, your hair always looks nice, as well as the photos of your magnificent recipes.
-Marlee
Really?!? Bacon candy, I too love bacon and candy, but together?!? I’m gonna have to trust you on this one!
Hi Joy!
A few things:
first, it’s cold over here on the crusty east coast, and your pictures always look so sunny…
next, your world looks like a cozy, smooth-edged one, where people smile, tablecloths are cheery, and waking up on Monday morning is fun (you know, sitting up in bed with a big yawn and stretch, a cafรฉ au lait while still tangled in blankets, and maybe a really fluffy scone with clotted cream and jam as the morning sunlight streams in)
Finally, you make me feel friendly and nice and remind me that there is no way to lift the spirits than with a few warm things out of the oven.
Lots of love from the peanut gallery!
Yummy!! Thanks for always having such great posts, recipes, and giveaways :)
Mmmmm anything with bacon in it makes me happy!
heyho love reading your blog! your posts never fail to brighten up my day (:
Ive yet to get on the candied bacon bandwagon… but maybe it’s time!
Great post :)
mmmm, bacon! also, i think it’s so amazing that you helped your sister move so far away! 5 years ago, i moved away from home to somewhere in a different time zone. it was the first time i had lived away from my parents and it was so ridiculously difficult, but worth the risk and adventure! my dad and i rented a u-haul and drove all the way (well, he drove and i tried to stay awake!) sleeping on the two couches in the back of the van to save on expenses. i will never forget that amazing adventure that my dad and i had, let alone what it led to! i hope you and your sister both have amazing adventures and success in both of your new places!
Yum! Thanks for all the awesome recipes, and giveaways!!
Bacon and sweets! I think I am in heaven! Oh, your hair looks Fabulous!
i hope your move is going smoothly! what a better way to relieve stress than bacon and brittle and chocolate goodies?
Wow, thanks for mentioning this! I can’t believe all the things I missed when I lived in L.A. I’m going to get some of these for my bacon-crazy friend’s wedding! Your blog is always a delicious delight.
Hi Joy! I love your blog and, without flattery, you are beautiful. Thank you for being so enthusiastic and open in your writing . . . it’s fun to read.
Also, pancakes.
These candies look amazing! And Hi! by the way! Love, love, love your blog. Always so inspiring, sweet, and funny. You make my day!
Hey, I like candy too. And you! :) Thanks for the giveaway
Awesome flavour combinations. I am intrigued. Did I mention you’re very pretty?
YUM! Those flavor combos sound divine. Especially the Fleur de Sel peanut brittle. I sure hope I’m a winner and btw? Your hair looks mighty nice! :)
Hugs,
Lisa
You hair is of course lovely! Hahah!!
Love your site…you always put a smile on my face; even in rain and snow covered Ohio!
Hey Joy! My hair is looking good.
Oh yum! Bring these to my mouth!
Hi, your hair looks nice ;) Seriously though, since you solicited a reply… I love your blog and your recipes that always turn out so tastily. My cousin turned me onto it and now, when I want to bake a tasty treat, you’re my first e-stop. (well, and one of my first e-stops every morning. It’s true.)
B.A.C.O.N. = L.O.V.E. And candy for breakfast? Completely legit; on New Year’s morning I make sure the first thing I eat is something delicious and chocolate – it’s the only way to kick off a new year. LOVE your blog – it makes my day!
I’m new to your blog and am loving it! Wish I could taste some of your cooking….but alas, I live in Iowa!
Love your blog, Joy!
These sound interesting…unfortunately I am one of the highly allergic to nuts people =(
I did want to tell you that reading your blog is like have a short conversation with a good old friend, it’s great!!
=)
Sounds like you could get used to those.
Joy, you rock! Love looking at your posts.
Getting ready for a St. Patty’s Day beer tasting tonight – maybe I’ll make Guinness Brownies!
ohhhh….bacon….feeling a little like Homer Simpson drooling over food. Would love to try.
I could totally go for some!
What a fun giveaway! Have you lost a few pounds? Thanks, Joy!
Sounds too good to be true, I would love to try some.
Hi! Long time lurker, first time commenter. While it would be nice to receive some of that delicious candy, I really just want to tell you how awesome you and your blog are. I’ve made so many recipes from it and each one has been fantastic. Your love for food is intoxicating. Thanks!!
hi joy! i love all your recipes and they’re wonderful! people think i’m a pro baker, and then i admit it’s only with the help of your recipes, haha!
Hi. Your hair looks gorgeous today. And I really like that top you have on. Is it new?
Love your blog! It’s been my go-to place for creative recipes ever since I found it!
omg did that sound perverted? ooops. i meant your baking obviously! geez
Hi Joy! Now I’m going to spend the rest of my morning thinking about sweets instead getting through these gosh-darned spreadsheets. Thanks for once again brightening my cubicle-bound mornign :)
hiii!! i’d love some candy, but i’d love your real treats even more! hahah :)
Bacon is so played out. Luckily Spanish Paprika is not.
Interesting combinations that I would LOVE to try… :)
I think you’re fabulous!
I love the way you write. Let’s be friends, okay? Thanks for making my baking world a better place!
oooh bacon! I hope your move goes well and you get more candy for breakfast! ;)
As a fellow baconaholic, your posts always make me hungry!!
I have a broken heart. I don’t know how to fix it. I haven’t even been interested in eating much lately, including bacon.
I’m not sure what to do, you know?
Joy – you never fail to brighten my day! Keep it up (oh, and I think your hair is fantastic!)
You look mahvelous dahling! Mahvelous!! Hope you have a fantabulous day!
They all sound fabulous. I am a true salty snacker and I am thrilled with the combo of salt with dessert items!!!
Those treats sound interesting!
Mmmm Friday bacon! Also, recently made your red velvet cupcakes–success beyond success!
Hey Joy!
1) I LOVE your blog!
2) I LOVE baking!
3) I LOVE bacon!
Holy hell, all these things that I love just collided in the best Friday morning email ever :)
You’re terribly sweet, and I would love the chance to win some of those delicious looking treats!
Hi Joy! I get so excited whenever you have a new post and even more excited when you’re giving something away! I love putting bacon in sweet things, and these all sound sooo good. Oh, and I got one of your aprons for my birthday, and it was lovely! Thanks so much! :)
Hi Joy!
I love your site! And you do look amazing!
Thanks for the great giveaway!
Your hair looks great! Your blog looks great! Your recipes are to die for! (and those treats look pretty amazing, too)
Can’t go wrong with chocolate and candy for breakfast. I had cake this morning, and it was fantastic – the perfect start to a Friday.
PS – every time I check out your blog I want to eat the screen!
Cheers!
OMG i am sure it is impossible to find bacon that doesnt taste good! nice find joy :)
I hope you have a lovely weekend!
Oh. Yum. These look amazing. Kind of like the Vosges chocolate bars that tempt me every week when I get off my plane at O’Hare. Those flavor combinations get me every time. My favorite “Naga: sweet Indian curry + coconut + deep milk chocolate, 41% cacao”
Love you blog, read it all the time, bake from it all the time. I have a recipe to send you someday because it’s pretty fabulous and I don’t keep up with my blog enough to have anyone read it ;0)
i’m sure your hair looks awesome right now, given that it’s 7:20am on a friday morning where you are. =) mine looks fantastic, too.
=)
Wow, those look delicious!
And I was going to tell you your hair looked fabulous-how did you know?!?
Forget the hair, honey. What magic are you doing with your skin? You’re so glowing! And radiant! If you say the secret is bacon and/or chocolate, you’re going to make many people happy…. :D
Candy for breakfast…that’s my kind of girl!
Hi. Your hair looks nice! :)
I hope you thoroughly enjoyed your visit to Seattle!
Is there anything that doesn’t get better with bacon?
Your blog became my fave the first time I read it and I look forward to logging onto my computer each morning to see what you have written about now. I love that you love food as much as I do and that you find so much joy (heh!)in the little things. P.S. I hope you and your sister are both getting all settled in and love your new homes!
They look delicious! Perfect for a study break.
Is there anything better than salty and sweet? The candy looks amazing. I would love to try some. Happy Friday and I love your bright shiny smile :)
What a great givewaway! Love those flavors. You look MAHvelous, BTW. :) ~~Rhonda
not only is your hair nice, but your recipes are too! :)
Oh those look simply delish! Too bad I’m allergic to nuts :( I keep hearing that I’m missing out, but I think I do just fine in the sweet treats department! Btw, you look like you’re doing great and I just can’t wait to make the Avocado pound cake!! Happy Day!!
Hi Joy,
Your hair does look nice. I love your blog and I love anything sweet and salty. Thanks for the giveaway!
You know, I would swear that I’d read a article somewhere where all the top models said that they’d trade their careers in an instant for hair that looked like yours.
I talked one of my coworkers recently into making chocolate covered bacon so this giveaway is right up my alley. Yum!
Good luck with your move! It’s going to go great :-)
Thank you for being so kind to us. You’re truly one of a kind and we appreciate you being here.
Please, please send me some! I’m begging…I love bacon and sugar together! My friend, southern chef and James Beard Award Winner, Martha Hall Foose, has a recipe in her cookbook for pralines with bacon…to die for! And yes, your hair always looks FABULOUS!
i love your blog! this candy sounds delicious :)
Because everthing sounds better in French:
Vos cheveux sont une chute d’eau de luxe de confort de profondeur.
Merci!
Love your post. Have you lost weight? Cute shoes too….very cute.
Looks delicious! And I think that’s a perfectly acceptable breakfast.
Sounds positively yummy! Do they have a store that I can visit when I am there in May?
On another note, your hair DOES look fabulous! As a fellow curly haired girl, I feel compelled to share with you my love of Bumble and Bumble’s Curl Conscious Curl Creme. It changed the life of my hair! Maybe you already are a fan?
It is gorgeous here in Denver today, I hope the view from your window is also gorgeous.
i love your blog! and your hair looks nice. :)
Joy, your posts always bring a big, goofy smile to my face. You’re so fun!
Happy Friday, m’dear!
Oh my goodness The Bacon, Spanish Paprika and Cashew Brittle just sounds so intriguing.
My husband is all about bacon. He has the bacon salt and he will make a sandwich out of peanut butter and bacon.
So glad I found your website – Love to “drool” over the goodies each morning
Yum, sounds delicious! And I think that’s a perfectly fine breakfast. :-)
Bacon… Paprika… Cashew. OMG.
Oh and you look fabulous today! I love those shoes.
;)
I think that sounds like a great breakfast! I always look forward to your posts & your sunny way of looking at life :-)
HI! Not only does your hair look nice but those are the cutest shoes that I have ever seen. Where did you find them? Also, all of those lovely combinations from Morning Glory Confections have triggered major pregnancy cravings for me and I am a long way from LA. So, please pick me!

Happy Friday! i think you are awesome!
hi joy your hair looks nice :) love you and your blog!!!! <3
I love to taste something new and, let me tell you, in Italy one can’t always find something new and adventurous, people tend to be rather conservative concerning food….
Keep on writing Joy, and thank you!
XXX
I might be trying your avocado recipe today, depending on how the critters are ripening :)
Sounds delish! I love interesting food combos…by the way, did I mention that your hair looks great?
Hi. You are really cool. Your hair looks nice. Now gimme some candy!!!!!
Thanks.
Once again, you have nice hair.
What crazy combinations! I am always looking for an easy way to up my bacon intake though…
The hair compliment seems too easy now, but you are looking rather thin today :)
Good morning! Seems like the best thing to say is Happy Friday! No matter how you feel, it being Friday will cheer just about anyone up. Smile!
oooh! candy!
Oh wow, those candies look amazing! But nowhere as amazing as your hair :)
I haven’t been blogging much lately, but reading your site makes me want to start up again. You enjoy food so much and I love that- it’s inspiring! I check for updates every single day.

Love the blog! These goodies look interesting and delish!
You’re hair looks nice and those goodies look yummy :)
Hi Joy!
Can you maybe tell me if they ship these delicious treats outside the US? Just in case I don’t win :) …
Have just taken up photography again, to capture some of the dishes I make in the weekend at my girlfriend’s Italian delicatessen (far from LA, in Leiden, the Netherlands).
Your blog and your photo’s are a great inspiration to me and make me take my camera and shoot!
Thank you!!
These look fantastic!
My father desperately clings to the antiquated belief that bacon and/or salt cannot be used in anything resembling a candy or dessert. I’m pretty sure (with a little help) I can prove him wrong!…also…your hair is fantastic :)
Hi.
Your hair looks nice.
And if I ever bump into Gerard Butler, I promise to send him your way. :-D
That’s so delicious looking. Your hair looks nice. =)
Thanks for another great giveaway. Your blog is one of my most favorites to check on a daily basis. I always love to see your wonderful photographs paired with the great stories. Thanks for sharing on a daily basis.
Salty & Sweet. Yum!!!! Oh and your hair looks Awesome!!!!

Breakfast of champions! And did I mention how lovely you’re looking today?
oh Joy – you are a vision this morning! STUNNING!
Who doesn’t love fun candy? Love your writing!
Hi!
I, too, love bacon. My fave breakfast in fact are 3 bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers with monterey jack oozing out. Candy would be wonderful to try for a change. And you have beautiful hair!
Thanks for the fun posts you write.
I love your blog. I have passed the link on to several people. I am always up for new food combinations!!

Good morning, Joy. Your hair looks lovely today. And so do your candied confections.
Of, Joy! I adore your blog. Thanks for hosting this giveaway.
Come visit in Austin sometime…I’d love to take one of your cooking classes!
I’m so intrigued by these…..and also, your hair looks AMAZ-ING.

What a glorious morning! The birds are chirping, hot coffee, and a candy giveaway! Doesn’t get much better than this!
Dear Joy,
Your hair looks great, and your smile, and your eyes sparkle. Guess what? I love candy.
Gee, I hope I win!
sounds like a good breakfast! hope the move is going well…and your hair is fab! :)
Um…don’t enter me into the contest. I’m not that adventurous with my food since I get sick behind practically everything I eat…But, your hair does look nice, and your writing is fun and fresh. I hope that brightens your day a bit.
My friend told me about your blog a couple weeks ago, and I already tried the avocado pound cake. For me, the corn flour was the magical ingredient. And I plan to try the sugar cookies and the avocado chocolate cake as soon as possible. If there are any extra candies over on the west coast to send to me in the rainy east coast, I would love-love-love it!
Oh the combination sounds tasty… Pick me Pick me!!!
The treats sound delicious. I love your blog – keep it up!
Almonds and bacon are perfectly acceptable breakfast foods.
mmmm…bacon.
hard to resist the sweet/salty combos…
Looks yummy. My Mom would love a treat like this – it would be hers if I get picked!
Happy Day!
Sound delish….I love to bake as well. I make English Toffee for Christmas every year. I loved to try this candy!
I think that is an awesome choice for breakfast…
Bacon … it’s a separate food group at our house! And we pair it with almost anything. These confections sound amazing. I love trying something totally outside the box!
And your hair looks beautiful!
Wow- I definitely need to catch up on this baking with bacon trend… i love sweet and salty/smoky/savory tastes together!
And your sister post made me SO excited for when my sister moves to my city this fall!!
Thanks for this sweet giveaway :)
:) I recently baked up a batch of your Bacon/Peanut Butter cookies. My Mother in Law (who has Celiac Sprue) adored them so much, that she took them to some of her friends that suffer from the disease too. They were so happy with this new combo of flavors that they would like to gain your permission to put the recipe or a link to it, in their next Newsletter. Can she please?
Please let me know.
~Leah
What interesting flavors! I would love to try those.
Fleur de sel, bacon and your hair. Awesome!
Bacon confections make my heart go pitter-patter, as do you Joy!
My daughter and I cook some of your cookie recipes weekly. keep them coming, we love it!
You’re awfully swell yourself! Don’t go crazy with moving! the worst part is yet to come: unpacking :-/. But it’ll all be worth it!!
So amazing…….and what a treat to find your funny post in my inbox this morning. You are too cute.
What an elegant treat! How fitting :)
What an amazing treat! I just looked at the yummy ingredients, The New Mexico and Pumpkin seed brittle divine. Your hair looks great and I can tell you what products would make it even better, Sebastian Volupt shampoo and conditioner a little whipped cream (Sebastian Mousse) perfect products for a busy baker.
xx
Gina
Thanks for being so wonderful Joy. I love that there is someone else in the world who loves pancakes and bacon like i do.
I love sweet and salty! I hope you move went smoothly.
Those confections look delicious, I love your blog and love all of your recipes {my favorite?-Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream! OH MY GOODNESS!}
I’m hungry! And your hair looks nice.
Mmmmmm sounds so tempting!!!
UMMMMMMM! Bacon in Chocolate Candy………I WANT SOME, I NEED SOME, PLEASE GIMME SOME…..

Love, love, love, it! For me, it’s all about the packaging. SO darn cute.
Hello, Joy! I’ve only recently come across your website and now I check it religiously every day (sometimes several times a day)! Glad to have you in my daily life (and keeping my fingers crossed for the super-yummies you are giving away)!
I recently found your blog., love it!
These treats sound great! Anything with bacon sounds great!
Everything is better with BACON! These sound delightful!
and your hair looks fabulous:)
EVERYTHING is better with bacon! My favorite way to amek bacon is baked in the oven with brown sugar.
Joy, don’t feel bad–I ate a brownie for breakfast today. This salty-sweet deliciousness looks even better!
Bacon = nature’s perfect meat. Chocolate = nature’s perfect dessert. I see potential here…
I hope I WIN….
I love your blog.
Gee, your hair looks terrific.
Your baked goods are swoonworthy.
Did I mention I love your blog?
Bacon, almonds AND chocolate! Jackpot!
You are my morning smile – love the blog –
Joy,
From a fellow curly hair baker (although not a professional baker – but definitely professional curly hair extraordinaire) I love chocolate and bacon! Keep rockin’ the hair and keep givin’ away the sweets!
MEMMEMEEEEE! Please pick me. I gave up meat and dairy for Lent and I will TEAR THOSE THINGS up on Easter morning!!!
And, P.S. Your hair looks lovely!
This candy sounds very unusual, so I’d love to try it! Pick me!
ZOMG I want to eat those things! Your blog is gorgeous, as are you :). thanks for the chance to win!
Hi Joy~
Love your blog. The candy sounds delightful!
Ashley
You intimidate me..in a good way! In fact this might be one of my first times commenting b/c I generally just stalk you and am too tongue-tied (erm…finger tied) to even comment on how amazing I think you are.
And that’s the truth!
What a delightful and interesting combo of tastes and textures. I can’t wait to try them. I love experimenting with different things. Thanks for sharing!!
Looks delicious!
Mmm…salt and sugar and crunch and artisanally made? You’re making me drool!
What a fun giveaway!
Hi Joy- I love reading your blog :) And these treats sound yummy- I’ve had a chocolate bar with bacon in it once and it was really good! Hope your moving goes well- I am moving the end of this month- across country- and my apartment is box heaven right now. Anyways- thanks for the cooking tips and recipes :)
This candy looks so exciting! Thanks for sharing. :)
I’m obsessed with cashews and I giggle like crazy when Ina Garten pronounces the word “cash-SHOES.”
Also, your recent post about moving your sister to Seattle gave me the warm fuzzies. Siblings rock.
Hey Joy,
your hair does look nice, it always does! ;-)
I’m currently in the process of baking bread for a friend’s housewarming tonight. Here in Germany we have the tradition of bringing bread and salt for a housewarming. Are there any similar traditions in your area or family?
I’d totally bring some to your new place too, if you were a little closer!
hey joy!
this is joy. i’m totes jealous of your new pad, and your recent trek to the pac-nor, and…well your everything, including this freaking bacon-y candy. would love to try!
I am fairly certain anything with bacon is considered fabulous!
Everthing’s better with bacon! Salty sweet is the best combination and the brittle sounds amazing. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful finds and providing such inspiration.
Brittle looks yummy! I hope the packing/moving is going well! I am also moving/packing right now and so excited. Happy moving :)
Yum! Everything is better with bacon :)
Everybody deserves a little candy at breakfast!
mmm..chocolate…i want! :)
Thanks for the giveaway!
Mmmm, bacon – yum!
Oh. my. god. Bacon in peanut brittle? That’s probably better than my local market guy that sells jalapeno-beer-bacon almonds… and they are quite fabulous.
I’ve always wanted to try chocolate and bacon!
Wowza… in love <3
I love your hair.
I love your blog.
I love candy.
The bacon and almond sound GREAT! Thanks for the giveaway!
Oh Joy!
I love your blog, and your recipes even more. They are well written and adapted and a joy (no pun) to use.
I’d be really interested in trying these sweets. I’m a recovering vegetarian, so I have to take my meat in small does, and what better does than in candy!
Cheers!
PS. I hope you will ship to Canada, The Great White North!
Loving the website! You’ve inspired me to start blogging some of my own recipes :)
Yummy! Bacon in candy! and have a wonderful weekend!
Hi Joy!
Are you doing anything fun for St. Paddy’s Day? Baking something green maybe? I am going to make this bread for my party, I can serve bread at a party right?
https://www.101cookbooks.com/archives/000151.html
I have to make a cake for next Thursday too.. probably with Guinness in it and Bailey’s in the frosting.
I don’t eat bacon, but if I win a bacon candy I will just give it to a friend! Spread the love and everything.
Joy, your blog makes me happy. I love the way you write. It may sound a little odd, but you put so much personality into everything you post here that it makes me feel like you’re just talking to us, you know? I don’t feel like I’m reading.
You are super talented :)
instead of oatmeal for breakfast i am frying up some bacon! love your blog—
Did someone say CANDY!!!??? Thanks for the great ideas, links and photos. I absolutely love coming here for a visit.
Oh, these sound fantastic! Thank you for an awesome giveaway! Mmmm bacon and cashew sound fantastic together!
I enjoy reading your blog and receiving it by email. I shared your link with my sister.
Have a great day!
bacon.
candy.
you.
oh, and your hair. i bet it’s swell as well.
if i didn’t live on the other coast of the US i’d definitely take a walk down to morning glory myself right now.
Interesting, I’m game! Please enter me, I’m always up to try new things! Thanks! Sue
We should all have such deliciousness for breakfast. :)
I love your recipes, especially the crustless spinach and mushroom quiche!
Your hair looks nice!
Just discovered your blog a few days ago. Just in time!! WHEW!
Bacon candy.
Candied bacon.
Fleur de sel.
Food porn if there ever was.
Thanks for the info on the store. I love your website!
These all sound so good and I would definitely have some for breakfast … if I could. Guess I’ll settle for double chocolate espresso cookies instead. Oh, and I can’t see you, but I’m sure your hair looks great! LOL!!
I find something to print and file away for my next baking adventure almost every time I visit your site. Have a great Friday! PS: I love bacon.
Very interesting combos!! I would love to try them!!
By the way, your hair looks nice :)
ooh lala. these look tasty!
Count me in ! You are so sweet because you like candy!
Your blog is fabulous. You are fabulous. Your hair is fabulous.
Yum, I’d love to try some!! :)
i would eat them for breakfast too! :)
I have always wanted naturally curly hair like yours. It goes so well with vintage dresses. Enjoy your new place and your brittle. :)
Looks amazing! Can’t wait to see pictures of your new place. :)
Thanks for sharing your discoveries with us! I always look forward to reading your posts.
I recently made the bacon chocolate chip cookies for my boyfriend! He shared them with his friends and they all loved them!
Yummmmm… Those look good! I like the packaging!
But mostly I like you, Joy! And I totally took your advice, frozen butter-style for the scones I made last night. It was a dream! Thanks Joy!
All I have to say is I nearly had a heart attack when I saw these! My sister and I are trying to open up a bakery that specializes in sweet/savory concoctions and these about nearly knocked me over! yum. Yes please.
Ooooh! I love using unusual ingredients when I bake!! These sound so good. Almost as good as your hair looks! You’re gooooorgeous!
hi! I think those sounds really good! I love bacon.
Wow. They look wonderful. I would easily eat that candy for breakfast!
Hi! :)
Your hair looks nice and are those new shoes you have there?! ;)
Joy-
You are too precious for words…for REAL!! If only I lived anywhere near California, I’m pretty sure we would be BFFL. Jus’ sayin’. Keep the delish recipes and endlessly charming stories coming, it brightens up my days!!
<3 Kayla
Those look amazing, but not nearly as delicious as your hair!
Hi! How are you doing with the moving thing? I made your Cheddar Black Pepper biscuits a while back and they were a huge hit. I also made some of you pancake recipes and they went over very well with my husband who usually can’t be bothered to eat pancakes.
I’d love to try some of those flavour combinations as well.
Hi! My hair…err…I mean your hair looks really nice today.
Joy, we love you too! :)
And that candy looks awesomely delicious… yum!
I truly adore people who enjoy bacon in their confections!!! It makes me happy. Thank you for the giveaway!
JOY! Happy Friday and Happy Spring! Maryland is finally sprouting some fresh leaves and it makes me want to wish everyone a wonderful happy season! Your giveaway is completely selfless, I would have kept all that goodness for myself! It looks, sounds, and most likely tastes wonderfully familiar and exotic at the same time.
My pitch: I coach a crew team, and one of the girls on the team has the last name “Bacon.” No joke. What makes it better is she totally lives up the name. She’s such a goofball. I want to give her a thank you for something amazing she did, and I can’t think of a better gift for “The Baconator.” Please send some bacon brittle bits my way!
Who doesn’t love bacon!!
Mmm, these look interesting!
Your hair looks nice today :)
Have a blessed day!
I wish I could eat those for breakfast. Yum!
Wow, those look fabulous!!!!
And I love the tablecloth in these pictures, it lovely (which means you have great taste)!
Ooo, that sounds awesome. Sign me up! And I love your blog–just started reading it, and it’s now bookmarked for easy everyday checking.
What intriguing candies – I’d love to be entered, thank you! And you have lovely eyebrows. Someone said that to me in seventh grade and I still remember it – what a weird compliment, but kind of flattering, too! :)
ooooh, bacon goes good with almost anything! pick me, pick me!
salivating like Pavlov’s dog…
oooh! I think you are swell as well. <3 And I love brittle. Yum yum yum.
Wow, what beautiful confections!
You’re blog makes my day every time I read it.
Drool, much? Those flavor combinations look amazing! Suddenly, I feel the urge for your PB and bacon cookies… those will have to suffice for the mean time! BTW, you rock :)
Who knew bacon could be used in so many ways. I’m sure my husband would eat them all up.
Ooooh please please pick me? I made my boyfriend your Peanutbutter bacon cookies for Valentine’s Day and he fell harder in love with me. I owe you a thank you!
oohhh!! this sounds great! pick me!
I love to try some. Love ur blog!
That’s really neat! I saw a video last week on foodcurated.com about small batch artisan candy makers in new york city that make some crazy good brittle. They even make a beer and pretzel brittle!
Ooo fleur de sel peanut brittle? YUM!
YUM! Looks wonderful…will have to go to their website straight away and check out their goods, I can tell.
(DID I ever tell you that you’re hair looks fabulous?)
Oh these look yummy. There is a little candy shop in Ellicot City, MD that sells bacon bark. It’s awesome!
I saw your picture at Forbes.com, and your hair DID look pretty!
mmmm sweet and salty. I wish that flavour combo would catch on a bit more over here in nz! and stuff with bacon in it, yeh.
I look forward to reading your blog every day. Thanks for keeping me so deliciously entertained!
ps. your hair looks nice :)
yum! These sound so delicious! I would love to try them!
Oooh! Looks delicious :-)
Oh I hope I win!!!! I gotta have those bacon goodies!
I love your website. Thanks for the giveaway!
Joy,
Can’t wait to get to their website. This stuff looks amazing. So is you blog for a daily read.
Thanks,
Steve
https://www.myfavoriteflavours.com
p.s. a very good hair day for you.
I’m going to agree with everyone else. You have fantastic hair, of course. I like chocolate, and I like bacon, but I’ve never had the two together, so I’m intensely curious about those candies.
oooh interesting!
Oh Joy! (Pun intended) Even if there wasn’t a hunk of burning candy love attached to this post I would still want to write and tell you how I adore your website. How it brings tears to my eyes reading about your escapades and your yummy-in-my-tummy recipes. As another single baking gal with a flair for wearing her apron and pearls as she sips a martini and bakes some big, beautiful muffins (or what have you), your blog nay, your website of love and baking makes me feel like a gooey apple pie inside. I read what you write and feel as if I am understood for all the crazy things that pop in my head that make me eccentric and lovable but, just a little bit odd. Not saying that you are anything but perfect, your just Joy the Baker and there is no better way to describe you. Thanks :)
Your hair is fabulous. Truly. I’m not just saying that because bacon candy is involved.
I just had an idea…I’d like to be sitting at a table with your family eating your dad’s pancakes, with bacon dragees for appetizers and dessert…any chance you could pack everyone up and head to New England? (it is that magical time of year…buckets on all the sugar maples…)
No? well, a girl can dream.
Now, back to bacon candy. OMG! That looks AMAZING! (not as good as your hair, but amazing none the less.)
Fleur de Sel Peanut Brittle reminds me of the salty and sweet combination of your Salted Chocolate Vanilla Bean Cookies, which I loved by the way! I made a gluten-free version for my roommate and he was forever grateful. Mmmm… candy.
I got all four wisdom teeth pulled out last week, and they are finally starting to heal. Those treats would certainly make a good introduction to chewing again. :)
It’s almost springtime! And it’s friday! So much to be happy about! :)
I would love to try this! Oh and your hair looks nice :)
I am having dreams (day dreams that is) of sweet bacon and cashews. Thanks – now I will be distracted all day.
Those candies look totally yummy…you know, hide them from my husband and kids in the back of the secret cupboard yummy.
Love your blog! Thanks!
I am such a fan of this bacon/sweets trend….I love the combination of the smokey bacon paired with sweet, rich chocolate! YUM! I definitely need to get my hand on these little lovelies and perhaps get them as gifts for a few birthdays coming up! Thanks for sharing Joy and I hope the move is going as well as it could be!
Those candies sound amazing! I’d love to try them!
Yes your hair DOES look nice!
If I win, can I have the peanut brittle? Pretty Please? I’m a brittle purist. :)
three things i love
feta, tomato, and mushroom omelet
calm mornings
reading your blog, with both
Hi!
I love your blog and have been reading it for a while. I used a couple of your recipes during my holiday baking this past year and my friends and coworkers loved them!
The candy looks very yummy and of course your hair looks nice….
Three things I love:
Rootbeer float cake
cheddar black pepper biscuits
Your wonderful, funny, and inspiring blog.
How’s the packing?? *wink*
What awesome hair you have! Thanks for the give away, sounds very intriguing!
Ooh, those flavor combinations sound insane!!
My husband loves candy and trying unusual food pairings. This brittle sounds right up his alley.
oh my goodness. everything is better with bacon. and your hair IS pretty.
I found your blog recently and needless to say I was hooked! I check it every time you update and am currently working my way through the archives. I’ve never posted a comment though… this is a pretty good place to start :)
yum! bacon! and your hair looks positively radiant.
Love to get me some bacon and chocolate for breakfast. How could it get any better?
Oooh I’m intrigued!! And your hair is lookin’ lovely today (I’m sure). :D
Your hair isn’t the only thing that is nice and beautiful. I’ve been following your blog for a while and everything about you is beautiful: your physical person as well as your apparent outlook on life. Reading your blog never fails to lift my spirits. :) And I’ve gotten several really great recipes now to make for my family!! Thank you!!!!
I regularly drool on my keyboard reading your blog. Obviously I need some treats like these to help soak up all that saliva, don’t you think?
xo
Bacon is my absolute favorite food!! I gave it up for lent, so I am in a bit of withdrawl. Wonderful giveaway! :)
Joy, you always make me smile! You’re the first cooking site in my RSS reader that I look at every morning. That ought to make you happy :)
Oh these sound and look yummy! I have never found anything like this in Australia.
Hope you are not going too crazy with your packing and moving!
btw I love ur curly hair! I have dead straight hair and always wanted curls like yours.
I had a dream that my boyfriend got a job doing scientific tests on orange cats. But then I wake up and get a chance to win awesome candy. Real life is better than my dreams.
Hey Joy, it’s 6am here in New York. Why am I awake, you ask?
Well, I just had a heart stopping incident occur that involved my completely looney tunes grandmother sneaking out of the house at 6am to put some garbage bags out and my dog (Lando) and I believing she was an intruder entering the house in the wee morning hours.
I wish I were kidding.
Needless to say, it ended with me, a baseball bat, my glasses (which I never wear), hastily thrown on my face, and an extremely ticked off grandma in a Garfield nightgown. (No one was harmed, but I was roused from a perfectly decent sleep.)
Why am I sharing this? Well, I feel that today, this morning- I could really use some delicious confections.
Hello! I haven’t seen it, but I’m sure your hair looks lovely today. But I do like your adorable vintage dresses, and I hope the move is going well!
All those Morning Glory confections look so delicious!
I really like color of you hair. I have been trying to get something like you have for a long time ;/ I love it :)
And I love your blog,i’m here everyday :)
Hey Joy,
These sound amazing. Then again, that’s why I come here, for all of the amazing. Folks in these parts are growing familiar with “Joy the Baker” as I bake more delicious goodies from your site.
Oh, and cute hair.
:)
I’ve been wanting to try bacon chocolate for forever and a day. And your hair does look good. I have hair somewhat like yours and I can never get it to not be frizzy. You should totally share your beauty secrets.
Oh my gosh. These look delicious. Yummy. Perfect. A perfect giveaway – thanks sooooo much!
I really love your hair, by the way – I always envy people with awesome curly hair.
Woah… these look ridiculously delicious. My stomach wants.
Oh, I’ve been drooling over the Peanut and Fleur de Sel for months, but haven’t been able to justify ordering it when I’m the only person in the house that eats brittle. Maybe I just need some advice on how to ignore my annoying conscience and get over my guilt…?
In any case, your hair looks great! Especially after all of that painting you’ve been up to lately. I saw your Tweet about the navy and grey paint (which made me think of “Haze Gray and Underway!”) – are we going to see any fabulous pics?? :) Good luck with moving day!!
Your hair is lovely. Like bacon… ’cause it’s shiny?
I’d love to try some!
Ooo, new things I haven’t heard of!
These people sound awesome, and so does their goodies.
I second the first comment, you’re adorkable! And I am jealous of your hair.
Joy, I love those three things as well!
Love the blog, its like my secret happy place is a chaotic world (but I share it with everyone who will listen)
hope the move is going well!
ps… Your hair looks amazing, how do you get it to look so natural, but controlled?
Hey – I was just on their website a few days ago! That bacon, paprika, and cashew brittle looks out of this world. I wish Swiss confectioners would be more experimental with their flavors.
Thanks for your email, by the way, I look forward to getting my package soon. Hope the moving is going well!
