Weddings!


So in case you didn't know I recently got married (July 17th)! And OF COURSE Charmed Scones had to make an appearance! After all my research on weddings I read everywhere that the best wedding favors are those that are personal and edible, so the guests have something yummy to snack on later in the night and so that they aren't left with a candle or a trinket with YOUR name on it that they will have nothing to do with later, and then just feel bad about when then throw it away after it collects dust for a month or so.

My husband and I both love peanut butter and chocolate, so Mom and I created a personalized Charmed Scone for the wedding the had Reece's Peanut Butter Cups
baked inside and then glazed with melted chocolate and peanut butter chips! YUMMM!! TO DIE FOR!! And because we got married at the Disneyland Hotel we found the cutest Mickey shaped cookie cutter! They were absolutely perfect!
If that doesn't make your mouth water I don't know what will ( I mean unless you are allergic to peanuts ;) )

An to make them even more personal and special we also created a customized label and added a bow to coordinate with the table setting.

More pictures to come of the table setting, but they looked absolutely AMAZING!!

We can do this for ANYONE, you don't have to own the company to get the royal treatment and completely customized and delicious Charmed Scones for YOUR wedding!! Your guests will love you!



Keep us in mind for all your weddings, baby showers, birthdays or any kind of event!


Have a Charming Day!

Welcome to our *NEW* Blog!!


WELCOME!! To Charmed Scones *NEW* Blog!!

This is where you will get all the latest and greatest updates and news about Charmed Scones!

A little background: We are the Mother-Daughter team of Valerie "Mom" Whalin and Colleen (Whalin) Hungerford. We officially started our business of making delicious, moist and fluffy scones in October 2009. But we don't do it alone! We gets tons of invaluable help from my sister Crissy Whalin and my husband David Hungerford and we wouldn't be able to do it without them!!

With the mission to let the World know that scones are NOT the dry, crumbly, yucky, overbaked, hard "stone" things that you see every morning at Starbucks or Coffee Bean, etc. They are supposed to be YUMMY and delicious and made with lots of LOVE!

So that is EXACTLY what we do! With Mom's secret recipe we started with only three flavors: Fresh Lemon, Bittersweet Chocolate Chip and Cream. In the past 10 months we have exploded and now have over 50 flavors and new flavors seem to pop up every week!

Due to popular demand we also created scrumptious Gluten-Free, Vegan and Gluten-Free/Vegan Charmed Scones! And they have been a SCREAMING success!!

Our Gluten-Free Scones created such a buzz and success that we were fortunate enough to be featured in the "Brit Roast" gift bags at the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL!!!

Every Sunday you can find us at the Los Feliz Farmers' Market from 9am-2pm! The market is located in the Post Office parking lot on Vermont Ave and Franklin Ave. So if you are in the LA area COME ONE DOWN!!!!!

Here is a cute pic of Mom in the tent at the Los Feliz Farmer's Market

You are now pretty much caught up, so follow us on our blog, it will be your guide to our family filled journey of delicious scones, lots of fun and exciting new beginnings!

Have a Charming Day!
