In this episode host Jeanne Benedict helps Rusha put on a gathering that's all about coffee and pastries. They create invitations from large burlap coffee bags to send to the guests. For decorations they create personalized labels that mimic the look of antique coffee tins and place them around containers they fill with hydrangea and hypericum. For food guests will munch on three flavors of Biscotti Jeanne and Rusha make from scratch. Creme Puffs and Eclairs made from master pate' choux recipes will also satisfy the sweet teeth of the group. Guests can also create their own glass coaster set from water colored coffee filters, coffee-inspired quotes and a decorative stamp.
