I didn’t feel the least bit guilty about eating nearly one dozen petit fours (not all at once) as part of the sweetest treat I gave myself this year. Sweet Daisy, which is a project of the Nashville Anti-Human Trafficking Coalition, employs survivors of human trafficking to bake and decorate these tiny pieces of pastry confection. Some petit fours taste like square cupcakes, but those pale in comparison to the classic dense, almond variety that Sweet Daisy and I prefer. Theirs are made with almond cake and almond glaze — plus gold dust, if that’s your thing. Order in advance, picking your preferred-color daisy on top, and know that profits fund the NAHT Coalitions’s social enterprise work.
