Hi Margaret :o) Thanks so much for stopping by our blog…we appreciate it so much! and, oh my…our sweet KYLIE rocks…she is our ‘resident chef’ and she is amazing! I’m so sorry though – all of the recipes (and cards) that we share share here on the blog are just for your own personal recipe box use. Many of the recipes are passed on via family, and others are used with permission from friends and other resources and sites. So, we really cannot offer the permission for others to share the recipes or our designs. I truly hope you understand and will continue to enjoy everything in your own home! Good luck with your fundraiser and thanks again :o)

Hi Kylie,
I just discovered you yesterday and found the lovely apple lattice recipe.

Our little village school is making a cook book to sell to raise much needed funds and I wondered what copyright terms you have as I would love to be able to share this recipe with them.

Thank you, I am looking forward to exploring more of your blog.

Hi Maryvel,
Thanks for your wonderful comments about my recipe cards!! :o)
There are only two items on the recipe cards that don’t belong to HopScotch and HopScotch School additions and that’s the little green cross stitch and the string bow (natural colour). The green cross stitch is part of a set of three stitches (I deleted two of the stitches in this instance) and you can find the element in the Bounce collection kit – http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=245
The string bow is from the Summer Cottage kit – http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=296
The white stitching around both cards is actually dashed lines and it is part of the Muffin Man recipe card templates – it was recoloured to white on the apple cards – here is the link to the templates again, if you are interested – http://www.theshabbyshoppe.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=375
Have fun playing with your new purchases!! :o)

Wow! Those are some amazing recipe cards! I am sold! I was looking at both the HopScotch and HopScotch School additions but I don’t see the cross stitch you used on the apples! Is that included on those kits? or which kids that belongs to? Also, I love the white stitching all around the card, how do you do that? does that work with the stitch kit? I’ll wait to hear back from you before placing my order! AWESOME job, thank you kindly!

Great tip (on finding the font info). Thanks!

Hi Stacy!
Thanks for your question! :o)
I used LD Cotton Candy for the cursive font. I use it quite a bit – it’s so pretty!! It’s available for purchase at the Lettering Delights website. And the main ‘body’ font is myriad pro – this is usually a standard preset font on most software.
Also as a quick tip for everyone – when you download any of the Shabby Shoppe recipe cards there will be a little notepad document for ‘terms of use’. For this particular download, the file was called “SP_theShabbyShoppeBLOG_RecipeCards_AppleSlicebyKylie_TOU”. You will find the font credits there – towards the bottom. That might save you wondering and waiting for an answer.
Thanks again Stacy! :o)

May I ask what the cursive font is that you used on these? Thanks!

Hi Valerie!
Thanks ever so much for the kind words about my recipe cards! Isn’t HopScotch FUN!!

Now with the canned ‘pie’ apple it is just plain cooked green apples so you put that in the saucepan with lemon juice, water, sultanas and lemon zest. As the canned ‘pie’ apple is already cooked it only takes a few minutes to heat through and take on the lemony flavour and plump up the sultanas. Then you just cool it, and it’s ready to use. Quick and convenient!

I also wanted to mentioned in my recipe that you can SUBSTITUTE the canned ‘pie’ apple with fresh apples (green is best, like Granny Smiths etc) if you actually prefer fresh or if canned ‘pie’ apple is not available to you. As the fresh apples are not cooked it will just take longer to soften them and this will increase the initial cooking time of the filling. So I would cook them with the liquid ingredients first (that’s the water and lemon juice) for about 6-8 minutes or until tender and then add the sultanas and lemon zest towards the end, with about three minutes to go (kind of like if you had used canned ‘pie’ apple to begin with).
Hope that makes sense to you and HAVE FUN BAKING!! :o)
