Living the Sweet LIfe on CBS's Morning Show!

For the past few months, we've had the pleasure of being a stop on Chelly's Denver Gourmet Walking Tours! (Scroll down to our Nov 18th blog for more info!). This past weekend, Chelly was invited on CBS's Morning Show to show off some goodies and tell the world about her amazing, oh-so-delicious walking tours.


We were so excited to supply her with some goodies to show-off!


Check her out on the CBS morning show talking about Living the Sweet Life's Chocolate Chip Cookie - the best in Denver!

'Tis the Season

Life has been very busy here at Living the Sweet Life.

From Thanksgiving to Hanukah, Client gifts and Christmas - we've been blessed with abundance this Winter! Thank you to everyone for thinking of Living the Sweet Life and including us in your special holiday plans.

This week, we've been so excited to welcome so many of our regulars - and their kids! With school on break, many of our regulars have had the chance to bring their kids in and introduce them to our special shoppe. We couldn't be more flattered!

Have a wonderful week and a very merry Christmas!

Anna Be Pops the Top!

We recently had a great night with the ladies of Anna Be. Anna Be popped the top at their new location in the lower Highlands. Their beautiful new space is ideal for finding that perfect gown for your special day.

We were excited to provide the desserts - hand-rolled mint patties, vanilla mini cupcakes glistening in white sprinkles and homemade marshmallows!

Visit Anna and Breanna at http://anna-be.com/. Pictured here are Erika, Jen and our friend Jason, of Genghis Kern Letterpress and Design Shop.
