Hello All!

Hope your weekend was great! While grocery shopping I came across a new dessert called French Twists from Barry's Bakery. Since they are endorsed by WW, I thought I'd check them out. They are non dairy, have no butter, no cholesterol, no eggs, no yeast and are low sodium. They are basically puffed pastry. I got the Maple French Toast Flavor, they are excellent! I wanted to know what you all thought about them since I am thinking about using them as part of an SBD friendly dessert tray for Thanksgiving. Here is the information on them:

Thanks for your quick reply Cathy....guess I'll have to find something else tall and skinny to put in my "cookie vase"......who knows....maybe next Thanksgiving it will be me!

Oh, and thanks for all of the work you did in answering my last post that asked about salt, abbreviations and "the bump".

Take care,

Betty
