Ginger Bars

Is it pathetic that I get excited over paper goods? Polka dot envelopes and embossed kraft paper are the keys to my heart.

With my new blog makeover, I was determined to get some fitting business cards to match the new and simplified layout. My previous business cards were freebies from vistaprint. They were perfect for me at the time, but I eventually outgrew them.

I have zero skills in photoshop and template design, so I had someone else make a business card that I absolutely loved. With a couple of drafts back and forth changing the fonts, the final draft was finished and off to the printer it went.

I got them in the mail yesterday and couldn’t be happier. If you’re following the FB fan page or my Instagram @kimberlywyn, then you’ve already seen them. But if not, here’s the final draft!:

Although with the filter, the lines and fonts look yellow, but they’re really white! What do you think?

These ginger bars make enough to bring to a party. They hold their shape, aren’t crumbly, and don’t fall apart easy. The ginger flavor isn’t as strong as I would have imagined, but that wasn’t a problem for me. I left the bars in for 45 minutes since they weren’t done at 30, but I definitely over baked them. Don’t leave them in for that long! The bars weren’t very sweet, so I added a little dusting of powdered sugar once the bars cooled. Recipe slightly adapted from AllRecipes.
