NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (PRWEB) December 12, 2008

Whoopi was on a mission to find “The Best Gingerbread Cookie” that was reminiscent of her childhood memory of this classic treat. There was a coast to coast search and taste test with the final results broadcast on ABC’s ‘The View,’ Wednesday, December 10, 2008. Whoopi officially declared ‘Wonderland Bakery’s Gingerbread Cookie’ as her favorite.

“This is it!” says Whoopi “I wanted him (gingerbread cookie) to have that groove when you eat him. Wonderland made the cookie with the right combination of gingerbread and raisins, I love this cookie!”

It will be a very Merry Christmas for Wonderland Bakery with an endorsement from Whoopi on ABC’s ‘The View’ which has an audience of 4.67 million viewers weekly.

Whoopi’s cookie was created by 23 year old, Chef Allyson Ames, co-founder of Wonderland Bakery. The story is as sweet and satisfying as her delectable cookies, cupcakes, cakes and desserts. Wonderland Bakery is just three years old, but already the young company is spreading its wings with the expansion of the Wonderland Bakery Collection and a line up of products inviting aspiring young chefs everywhere to get in on all the fun with her ‘Bake Memories at Home’ collection including Red Velvet cupcakes, gingerbread cookies, fudgy brownies and sugar cookies.

The new Wonderland Bakery Collection also features its star: the soft and cuddly Allyson Wonderland Bear by Gund. The animated talking bear that tells the dream-come-true story of Chef Allyson Ames. Wonderland Bakery is the first-ever animated bear partnership with Gund, one of America’s 50 most recognizable brands.

“We are honored to be selected as ‘Whoopi’s Favorite Cookie,’” says Ames. “Some of my best memories when I was young was baking with my mom and creating desserts for my friends. Now I am living my dream in Wonderland helping others celebrate with yummy treats including Whoopi and her family and friends.”

In addition to setting trends in cupcakes, cookies and confections, Wonderland Bakery has built a strong brand and a loyal following. Expansion plans for 2009 whimsically crafted point of sale displays for nationwide retailers and airport stores.

(PRWEB) February 12, 2009

There’s always something cooking in the kitchen of Brenda Inniss-Boston. There’s always something on the stove — or baking in the oven — to whet the appetite and tempt the taste buds. Today, that something is Inniss-Boston’s latest cookbook, a mouth-watering collection of recipes entitled Delicious Desserts and Beverages Cookbook.

Inniss-Boston is a prolific author — this is the latest in her popular cookbook series — and her particular strength is that she keeps her tasty recipes simple, quick and easy to prepare. You do not need fancy, obscure, expensive ingredients to create an Inniss-Boston dish.

You don’t need a lot of time either because Inniss-Boston’s recipes cater particularly to busy families. She combines great taste with great nutrition, a perfect recipe for people in a hurry and families on a tight schedule.

Fans of Inniss-Boston will no doubt jump at the chance to try her aromatic Apple Loaf, accompanied by her recipe for making a companion Apple Drink. She turns just about every fruit in the orchard into tempting breads, cakes and muffins and then, just for good measure, uses those same fruits in a refreshing beverage.

Inniss-Boston’s recipes have an adventurous flair, too. Her recipe for a delightful Chinese Cake calls for black-eyed peas among the ingredients. Her unique, delicious Sweet Spaghetti combines the flavours and textures of evaporated milk, raisins, sugar and spices.

As a child, growing up with her Mom and Dad and her eight brothers and sisters, Inniss-Boston learned very early that everyone in the family was responsible for helping with the preparation of three main meals, seven days a week. She grew up comfortable in the kitchen and has maintained her love of cooking and food preparation throughout her adult life.

In Delicious Desserts and Beverages Cookbook, the author gives free rein to her sweet tooth. The reader reaps the rewards: these recipes are simple, fun to make and absolutely yummy. These are desserts to die for!

Isometric Vanilla Chai Vial

Whitehall, PA (PRWEB) January 25, 2012

Protica has announced a new product line that is designed to fit into many weight loss diets. Proasis®, Protein Gem®, and Isometric® are three products recently launched by Protica that are designed to meet the requirements of weight loss plans that dieters are already following.

Many of the diets that Protica used as benchmarks for creating their products have similar requirements that these products meet. Many diets suggest participants consume six small, healthy meals throughout the day instead of the traditional three-large-meal plan adopted by most people. The idea behind this six-small-meal eating regimen is that the body will be working to digest healthy, complex food throughout the day, causing metabolism to increase and maintain an elevated level. The result is that calories are burned more efficiently. Protica’s new products such as Proasis, Protein Gem, and Isometric, can all be used for one of the six small meals eaten throughout the day as part of a weight loss plan.

Proasis is an all natural protein shot that contains 25 grams of protein, zero fat, only five carbohydrates, and 120 calories. For dieters who are counting calories, Proasis can be used as one of the six small meals consumed throughout the day with little caloric intake. Many diets require a low amount of daily carbohydrate intake. Proasis was designed to fit in these diets. Digesting complete protein will increase metabolism, making the 25 grams of protein in Proasis ideal for one of the six small meals.

Protein Gem is a gelatin snack in a ready-to-eat, six-ounce cup. Gem contains 25 grams of protein, one serving of fruit, five grams of fiber, and 120 calories. Its low caloric content allows for it to be used as part of a weight loss diet. Its high protein content combined with the serving of fruit and five grams of fiber provides a lasting feeling of fullness. This attribute combined with Gem’s sweet, fruity taste will help dieters avoid the temptation to snack on less than healthy foods.

Isometric is the world’s first meal replacement shot. It nutritional content includes 20 grams of protein, two full servings of fruits and vegetables, ten grams of prebiotic dietary fiber, six grams of essential fatty acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6), and a complete spectrum of 27 vitamins and minerals. Many people believe that skipping a meal is an effective method to lose weight. On the contrary, when a meal is skipped, the body reacts by slowing metabolism and storing calories as fat. Isometric is intended to address this problem. Its relatively low caloric content (220 calories per serving) allows dieters the option of not eating a traditional, calorie-dense meal, while still providing the body with important nutrients.

About Protica

Founded in 2001, Protica, Inc. is a research-based nutraceutical firm headquartered in Whitehall, Pennsylvania. In its privately owned 250,000 square foot facility, Protica manufactures capsulized foods, such as Profect® ready-to-drink liquid protein beverage, Isometric® ready-to-drink meal replacement shot, Fruitasia® ready-to-drink fruit and vegetable shot, Protein Gem® ready-to-eat healthy gelatin, Protein Twist® ready-to-eat protein candy, Pediagro® ready-to-drink children’s meal replacement, Proasis® all natural ready-to-drink liquid protein shot, and many other brands in ready-to-drink and ready-to-eat form.
