February Newsletter
Share the Love in February
If you’re local, we’re basically living in a snow globe right now — so I hope you’re staying cozy, warm, and well-fed!
This is the FINAL month of our Fall/Winter Catalog, and several customer favorites have already sold out — Creamy Wild Rice Soup, Wahoo Chili, and Oh My! Chai are gone for the season. These limited-season comfort foods won’t return until at least August, so if you’ve been loving winter soups, chilis, and cozy drinks, now’s the time to grab the last of your cold-weather favorites. ✨🥣

February Recipes
💕 Romantic & Cozy February Recipes
February is the perfect excuse to slow down, stay cozy, and share something special with the people you love. Whether you’re planning a quiet dinner at home, a weekend brunch, or just treating yourself (yes, that counts!), these comforting and slightly indulgent recipes bring all the warm, feel-good vibes of the season.
Blueberry Almond Bundt Cake
Sweetened with blueberries, coconut and almonds, this cake is perfect for Valentines Day or anytime enjoyment.
Cranberry Orange Glazed Bundt Cake
Mix as directed, pour into a bundt pan and bake as directed.
Cool Completely
Glaze
- 1 c powdered sugar
- 2–3 Tbsp orange juice
- ½ t orange zest
- ½ t vanilla extract
Pot of Gold Potato Soup
Our potato soup made a little heartier with bacon and potatoes. Think of it as a loaded baked potato!
🏈 Game Day & Gather-Around Snacks
February is also prime time for snack tables, game nights, and casual get-togethers. These fun favorites are made for sharing — easy to set out, fun to eat, and guaranteed to disappear fast!
Queso Chip Dip
The perfect dip for tortilla chips or use in place of sour cream in your Tex-Mex toppings for a little extra flavor.
White Cheddar Bacon Mini Veggie Pizzas
Use your favorite veggies to create these cute mini pizzas. Great addition to any big game or fun gathering menu.
⏳ What’s an LTO (Limited Time Offer)? Let’s Talk!
An LTO means this product is only here for a short time — and once it sells out, it’s gone gone. Tastefully Simple brings in a set quantity, and while they estimate it could last around two months, super popular items can disappear much faster. So if something catches your eye, don’t wait! 🛍️✨
🍑 Meet the Star: Peach Perfect Dip Mix
This one is already getting rave reviews! It’s lightly sweet, fresh-tasting, and never artificial — the perfect balance that makes it incredibly versatile.
Here are just a few delicious ways to enjoy it:
🍓 Serve as a creamy dip with fresh fruit
🧀 Turn it into a unique Peach Cheeseball
🍪 Pair that cheeseball with shortbread cookies or graham crackers
🥄 Swirl into yogurt or whipped topping for an easy dessert dip
And that’s just the beginning! There are even more simple, crowd-pleasing recipes you can make with this limited-time favorite — be sure to check them out before this seasonal treat disappears. 💛
Peach Perfect Mini Pizzas
A sweet sugar cookie base topped with a bright peach spread and topped with your favorite fruits.
No Bake Peach Cheesecake
Did you know you can make a No Bake Cheesecake with any of our sweet dip mixes?
Tastefully Simple does not have a recipe for this one, but follow the No Bake Lemon Cheesecake recipe link below!
Peach Perfect Dip
Here are the directions to make the Peach Perfect Dip Mix as directed on on the box.
All you need is cream cheese and milk.
Want to change it up? Add a 1 (7 ounce) container marshmallow crème instead of the milk to make a fluffy dip with twice the volume!
Peach Perfect Cheese Ball
No link needed. You can make any fruit based cheese ball with a fruit based dip mix. Soften an 8 oz block of cream cheese and combine with dip mix. Chill and form into a ball.

🌟 Business Gifts! 🌟
🌟 Do you know any businesses that thank their clients or employees with gifts? 🎁
The holidays may be in the rearview mirror, but Thanking Customers should not be. In fact, giving customer gifts when it is NOT the holiday season is more effective.
I’d love the chance to collaborate with them! After all, everybody eats! 🍽️ Plus, these gifts won’t clutter their office or home.
➡️ Send your contacts my way! If it leads to business for me, there are rewards in it for you! 💰✨, not to mention the VIP referral rewards.
