oh my gosh. tough job to taste all those, but somebody's got to do it ;) That one from harvest does sound AMAZING!
Beautiful desserts!
The pumpkin panna cotta is calling my name. how was it?!?
Such a cool event!
I find your disdain for bread pudding to be so amusing because the bread pudding desserts look the most appealing to me! :-)
You had me at Nutella Panna Cotta, but then they all looked amazing - Great photos!
They all look delicious, but that beautiful Pumpkin Jam Flute from Sofra really caught my eye!
I actually thought it would be my favorite, but I didn't find any pumpkin jam in my flute. :(
Hello, next time can you tell me in advance? Please and thank you :)

Sooo, I was seriously considering going, but I legit chose not to because I would have gone into a coma. There was so much!!! But it all looks phenomenal.
Unbelievable....how do I get in on this event next year!? Dessert for a good cause-sweet deal!
I just got done making and eating a turtle tart and then I get to look at all these dessert photos? :) The opera cake would be my pick!
