Re: QVC FOOD

@Danky Just wanted to let you know that I have received the WS croissants. I baked one up on Sunday according to their instructions, but I didn't like it at all. Was very dry, and a bit salty. Just made another one using the instructions for baking the way I do the ones from QVC and it ended up much better. But I will stick with the ones from QVC. But I am always up for trying new foods.

YES!!! I keep the Juniors Cheesecake in my freezer, I also send them as gifts. I used to keep the KC Steak Filets in my freezer, they've been out of stock , if they come back I will definitely reorder them. The Jimmy's cinnamon rolls are amazing, I've also ordered the Cheryl's cookies, Lobstergram, Corky's, Graham & Rollins Crab Cakes...all were great. The prices seem high until you break it down, and if you count your time and energy...it's NOT that high!!!!

On my list to order are the Croissants and the Heartland Chicken. I'm disabled and on a fixed income so I have to order when on a good ezpay.

@CLEM------aww..I feel badly but , as you implied, you'd never know unless you tried. Turn about is fair play so, as soon as I run out, I will try the QVC ones and let you know.

I got a catalog from a place called MacKenzie and on my TO TRY list are 1-

Cheesecake Praline Cones. 2- Smith Island Cake. And 3- Mini Tropezienne. If I decide to spend the money, I 'll probably wait until the holidays especially for #2.

@Danky If you order the croissants from QVC, they have several sizes. The larger ones, like the ones from WS are called jumbo. They rarely are presented on air, but are available on line. I had them once, but they are a bit big for me. I usually get the regular large ones.

Just a little warning about the Smith Island cake. A friend of mine goes to Smith Island sometimes and has had this cake there. She mentioned that it is overwhelmingly sweet (she likes sweets). I haven't heard of the other two on your list, but they sound pretty good.

I have never purchased a food item from QVC.

Hi @CLEM------ thanks for the info about the Smith Island Cake. I love sweet, also, but as I get older I have less tolerance for really sweet. I am going to pass on the cake.

There is something else I've been meaning to buy but could use a review.

Lou Malnati Chicago Pizza . Have you, or anyone, had or heard anything about them. They are a little pricey but the perfect size for me....
