Photo Workshops for Food, Styling, Crafts & Video of Bi-Rite Creamery Cookbook!
Happy Sunday everyone! Now that were home for 10 days straight (yes!), we’re finally able to finish off some details of our upcoming photography workshop announcements. We have much to share with you today, but let’s start with the cookbook promo video we produced for Bi-Rite Creamery’s new cookbook!
In our previous post, we mentioned that we produced the cookbook trailer video for Bi-Rite creamery. It was such an honor to be able to work with the amazing Bi-Rite Creamery team and Ten Speed Press folks.
Chef’s Anne and Kris produce some of the best ice cream in the country. Now they’re sharing many of their terrific and special recipes in their latest book, Sweet Cream and Sugar Cones. We’ve had the book in our possession for the last few weeks and it’s hard to not put it down.
The recipes are made with love, great ingredients and local pride. You can now make their ice creams right in your own home.
Enjoy the video! And take a close look at all the food blogger cameo appearances. Do you see them in the video?
