I love my Costco and Sam’s Club for event planning…and not just because they have carts with room for two toddlers in front. Actually, I don’t know who doesn’t love them for event planning. I love to sprinkle little store-bought pretty appetizers and desserts among homemade items at a baby shower or family shindig. In my opinion, they fill in the gaps while keeping the party beautiful (and me sane). So when I ran into these adorable Upper Crust Bakery’s Mini-Lemon Bites at my local Sam’s last week I thought I had to share. They come in a package of 24 for $8.88. I found mine at Sam’s Club, but after looking online realized they were available at Costco for the same price as well. Pick up a package of blueberries or raspberries with mint leaves to add a personal touch and you are finished! I served these at my son’s coming home event and they were so easy and I got more compliments than I choose to admit. When you don’t have time to make Grandma’s from scratch homemade glazed lemon bites – these are an alternative you won’t feel too guilty for!
P.S. I actually think these would make a charming addition to a Christmas buffet as well. Don’t you?

Loralee…this is a great idea! Thank you for posting this. Our youngest son is getting married back east buy having a reception/open house here before he heads up to Idaho to finish school. So I have 3 weeks to pull together a reception! I love this idea!
I love these for events as you posted…but also for my own guilty pleasure. I freeze them, and when I want to have a small treat, I take a couple out and enjoy with my coffee.
Well duh! I thought this was a recipe for making these because you know. That’s what the headline was. Lol. Oh well
I get ideas from people who make new things. How great it is to see something new being made
This lemon dish is so easy to make, thank you
burst of citrusy goodness in every bite
amazing
