Did you know that Solon Public Library has a large collection of cake pans for patrons to borrow? There are over 66 cake pans in all shapes and sizes in our catalog: rectangles, race cars, teddy bears, and trains just to name a few. One of the most recent additions to the collection is the silicone Sphere 3D Cake Pan spherical mold that could be used to create the latest craze: hot chocolate bombs!
Adult Services Librarian Alexis has created a video as part of her In the Kitchen series on how to use this new cake pan. She makes it look so easy to create professional looking Hot Chocolate Bombs that can be given as gifts or to celebrate with family.
For more baking inspiration, check out The Great British Baking Show Season 1, Season 2, Season 3, and Season 4 on DVD. This was one of the ways my family and I spent time together during the early days of pandemic shut-down. It was highly entertaining, and we were each cheering for our favorite contestant to win.
All this talk about chocolate and baking might leave you hungry for the popular Hanna Swensen Mystery series by Joanne Fluke. Hannah’s latest adventure and Book #27 in the series was just released in February: Triple Chocolate Cheesecake Murders. These stories promise hours of entertainment with zero calories, although you will definitely be tempted to make the delightful desserts along the way. You can read even more about Joanne Fluke's tasty mysteries in one of our other blog posts, The Cookie Jar Connections.

What is your favorite dessert to bake? Do you prefer baked cookies or cookie dough? Do you respect the potential danger of raw eggs or throw caution to the wind and eat it by the spoonful?
