Dear Mint Shoppers,

We are well into winter with the snow on the hills and a chill in the air, so what a great excuse to get baking all those gorgeous treats that make winter bearable! 
 
New in store we have the beautiful Robert Gordon Australia range of cupcake accessories and fabulous baking dishes. Our favorite is a devine fluted pie dish in Duck Egg Blue, guaranteed to make any baking look delicious!

For the months of July and August we have a "Winter Warmers" promotion running. We are lucky enough to stock the beautiful Emile Henry Tagines and as a promotion when you purchase a Tagine you receive a free Cuisena Madolin with 5 Interchangable blades valued at $46.00 plus a Tagine Recipe from the Careme Cooking School in Martinborough!
