Spring into the Season by Turning Your Kitchen into a Fun and Flavorful D.I.Y. Workshop
HUNT VALLEY, Md. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - This spring, watch for the do-it-yourself movement to take over kitchens
with the launch of the McCormick virtual workshop, complete with
delicious new "Decorate It Yourself" activities for
the entire family. Together with decorating experts Karen Tack and Alan
Richardson, authors of the new book, What's New, Cupcake? (April
2010), McCormick has developed easy recipes, fun party ideas, colorful
tips and technique videos that help make a deliciously colorful splash.
"Part of what spring is all about is celebrating the colors of the
season and having fun with food and flavor," says Tack. "Whether you are
enjoying springtime holidays or even just a casual Saturday afternoon
with the kids, all you need is a little imagination and a few simple
ingredients, like my favorites from McCormick."
