Ciao Bella Blood Orange Sorbet Bars



Today, it was 60 degrees here in Chicago! This is very exciting- it's been about 4 or 5 months since we've seen a temperature like that, and coming from Vegas, that's just plain sinful! I thought spring might never come...

But it did today. And while I unfortunately spent the first part of this gorgeous day in bed not feeling well, thankfully I began to feel much better in the afternoon. A walk in the much-needed warm sunshine was just what the doctor ordered.

I ambled up the street to our little produce market to get some things for a Raspberry Rose Pots de Creme (a link to this recipe will be posted at some point if it works out as well as it sounds), and I came across these little gems:



We were so impressed! They're not cheap (we paid $5.49 for a box of 3), but for a treat once in a while, they're amazing. And they're only 60 calories a pop (literally!). My honey is a HUGE fan of blood oranges (which I proudly introduced him to), and he has very particular tastes when it comes to blood-orange-flavored things. And he loved them.

They're fresh, they're fun, and they're very naturally and authentically flavored. A great match for spring!
