“I’ll have just a bite.” That’s something we all say at dessert time, when faced with a big slab of cake or a giant sundae. But with Sweet Petit Desserts, you can have the whole treat, because it already is just a bite!

Taren Kinnebrew traded corporate America for baking, using her business skills and talent as a third-generation baker to bring Sweet Petit Desserts to fruition. Opened in December of 2013, Sweet Petit Desserts specializes in yummy bite-size desserts; everything from cake pops and cookies to brownies, key lime pie, cheesecake and macarons are available for your indulgent pleasure. They are known for their red velvet cake, moist and delicious with buttercream icing – sized just right for you to enjoy one sweet nibble…or maybe just two. Summer flavors like strawberry and lemon are featured in treats such as lemon bars and chocolate covered strawberries, and chocolate is always on the menu.

Sweet Petit Desserts can create a customized dessert bar for your special occasion, including weddings, birthday parties and showers. Or, just come in and get a sweet treat for yourself – why wait for a special event when the scrumptious delights are waiting there for you right now?

Located in Over-the-Rhine on Race Street, Sweet Petit Desserts is open Tuesday through Saturday. Indulge yourself with a little sweet treat and make an ordinary day extraordinary!

 

Whether you are a wine hobbyist, enthusiast or a true oenophile (that’s a die-hard wine lover), Water Tower Fine Wines is sure to have the red, white or blush you are longing for.

This hidden gem in Mount Washington is known for stocking over 2000 different wines, and they offer the best selection of champagnes and sparkling wines in the area – and across the country as well. They are unique to Cincinnati in that they don’t just get in a few bottles of a special wine and then once they’re sold, they’re gone; Water Tower Fine Wines keeps a large supply of those singular wines on hand, often up to four years worth, so it’s always available. They have wines on hand that other similar stores in the area don’t carry, and that’s one of the qualities that makes them so special.

Is there a specific wine you are looking for? If Water Tower Fine Wines doesn’t have it, they will go above and beyond to seek it out and get it in stock for you as fast as possible. Their main focus is on customer service, and it’s their goal to make sure that Cincinnati’s wine lovers are never lacking for the varietal they want to serve.

Water Tower Fine Wines offers wine tastings with hors d’oeuvres Friday evenings and Saturday afternoons, and there’s always a bottle (or three) open for a quick sample if you’re interested. Over the year they host special events, such as the upcoming Purple Trillium Blending Seminar with Chip Emmerick, or last month’s Valentine’s Day Champagne and Chocolate Tasting. Anyone, from the wine novice to the most expert among us, can come into Water Tower Fine Wines and feel comfortable learning about wine appreciation and enjoy the chance to meet others who share their interests.

From dinner parties, to a quiet romantic dinner at home, Water Tower Fine Wines has the perfect pour for your table. Indulge your curiosity about fine wine and drop by for a tasting and pick up a bottle or two – at Water Tower Fine Wines, you’ll never go wrong.
