Canada Day Delights

Canada Day is this weekend and celebrating 150 years is a monumental one; and in the culinary or grocery departments we seemed to have been inundated with all things Canadian...

Maple Marshmallows... these can be used to make rice krispie treats and most importantly as we decided, S'mores! Yes, I will be making s'mores using maple marshmallows. 

Firework Oreo's... although these seem more geared towards the American's, 4th of July, they were released before July 1st, here, so we'll take that as a sign of celebrating July 1st.

Maple Birthday Cookies... maple cream cookies are traditionally oh so Canadian however these birthday cookies are a red maple shaped biscuit with a cream cheese filling honouring the colours of the Canadian flag.  


The 150th to go coffee cup celebrating Canada's 150th year. These cups have been featured off and on during the months at Second Cup. At the time of this photo I was enjoying a lovely maple latté. Surprise! 

Merchandise... whether it's mugs, pins, shirts, or hats seems like showing your Canadian pride goes further and ventures into home decor. Home decor with cheeky Canadian humour. 

Beaver cookies... a sweet treat to enjoy. Even better with a maple latté.  


Maple frozen Greek yogurt bars... seems like nothing can escape maple not even frozen yogurt. 

Maple & Bacon Popcorn... although this was on shelves well before Canada Day it is a flavour that can be enjoyed anytime and even if you are not Canadian.


Hope everyone is having a good week so far. - JD
