A Brand New Discovery -->> One Word: Yummmmmmmmm!!!

Trust me...you'll want to know about this .

I found a reference to Fresh Baked on the MUA B&B board this afternoon and after taking a stroll through the Fresh Baked site (or sites marketing this product), and after having read the yummy (totally delicious) descriptions/reviews, I just knew I HAD to mention this here and introduce this to the rest of you guys on the BBW board .


Has anyone else heard of Fresh Baked and/or has anyone else tried it? Apparently the company is owned by Shiseido...who would have guessed ay ?

Anyway - This definitely looks like something I'd like to try *mouth waters* .

Below is an illustration of some of the products Fresh Baked has and two links I was able to get a hold of that list a bunch of Fresh Baked Products.

If anyone finds other links please post them here .

Hmm, scrumptious!!
Thanks for posting this, Kimmer!!
There's a limited edition Strawberry Shortcake too.
I have to order some.

These look great!

Those look so good.

Yummy!!!! Thanks so much for posting about it. I'm dying to try some. Are these available in stores or are they only sold online?

Anytime m'dearies (you're most welcome Fryl...can you believe Shiseido owns them? That's what I've heard anyway) I am just glad I could introduce something new and discover it right along with you all .

Jade177 -I am not entirely sure whether it is only available online or if it can be purchased in stores as well...I will have to snoop around and find out.
I will do this and report back :O).

I can help a little bit! It looks like Sally Beauty Supply used to carry the line, but the website says it's now discontinued. At least through them I guess? Anyway here is the link to that page: LINK

Thanks for the link...I'm getting a dead link though ...I'll try a little later. Anyway discontinued? Really? Because I've been hearing about this quite a bit on MUA lately and the other two links posted show these this line out with new products that just came out.
I am confused now .

Thanks for any input you can provide us with :O).

Okay...I just realized...maybe it IS just through them that they aren't selling Fresh Baked.

Kimmer, stop posting about all this delicious stuff.


Shiseido owns a lot of brands, but I didn't know they also had a line like this.
I really need to try some of this stuff out, especially the Strawberry Shortcake.

Fryl -
ROFL @ the smiley being spanked. Wellll I can't try it out by myself...I need my fellow BBW-addicted cronies to share in the experience with me .
We serve double purposes...we tempt and entice new addictions then we support and rehabilitate when withdrawal (due to discontinuation) occures.

And I knooooooow Strawberry Shortcake was the first thing I noticed. I looooove strawberry. Strawwwberrrryyy *mouth waters* .

Those look so cute! There are a lot of scents that sound interesting. However, I have enough haircare products as it is now.

Those look so yummy!!!

UPDATE - THIS IS WHAT I'VE FOUND:

This was my post on MUA - Feel free to check back on this since we might continue to get informative feeback :

This is where it was sold at by Sally Beauty Supply but is now discontinued there (gahhh):
http://www.sallybeauty.com/shop/9000/623384
EDIT: Okay a few MUA-ers mentioned that they "Just saw these products at Sally's" so I am assuming they haven't been discontinued (???). I'm trying to find out more...oh and Jade177 this might answer your question - it seems these can be bought in-store and not only online.


Anyway thanks to a nice MUA-er I found out they also sell this on Amazon (I heard Chocolate Brownie is yummmmy):

Hi,
Read your post from earlier today. I bought and found these at the JC Penney dept store salon last spring. They were full sizes but they only had 4 scents (brownie, cinnamon bun, key lime and apple pie).

I've seen the small travel sizes in Sally's, I was told by the SA there that only select Sally's have the full sizes.

HTH!
Karen


!

I think I would be interested in the smaller sizes, seeing as how I have a lot of haircare stuff as it is. There's a Sally Beauty Supply store about 5 min. from me, so I will have to go check things out. The only thing I don't like is it looks like that store closes @ 8 PM.

I'd have to agree with you on that score...I'd want to try the small size first. Not necessarily because I have too many haircare products or body washes (I am not familiar with the words "too" and "many" in one sentence when it comes to bath and body products ), but because it'd give me an opportunity to try the scents out before I focus on a specific scent or scents.

I hope you manage to get to the store in time Megan ...goodness knows how frustrating it is to have something close "early" when you're (or anyone else is) dead-set on purchasing something to give it a try .

Thanks for all the info, Kimmer!
I hope I can get my hands on some of the Strawberry Shortcake stuff. If not, there's always VO5 Strawberries 'n Cream.

Thanks for the info Kimmer. I'll have a look at the JC Penny salon next time i'm down in the States

I'm back from my trip to Sally Beauty Supply. They had only the full sizes in stock & in select scents. I almost missed these & had to walk past the shampoo aisle twice before I saw them. But on one of the shelves close to the bottom, I saw a small display of them where they had space for 4 in each of the scents they offered. The scents available were Chocolate Brownie, Key Lime Pie, Cinnamon Roll, & Apple Pie (basically everything that we've seen the online merchants carry so far). Sally Beauty Supply also has a coupon for $1 off a Fresh Baked product that's good till 9/30. I think one of those coupons may have found its way into the Coupon Extravaganza Fraffle (which is going on right now). As far as price goes, they were $7.49 for the 13.5 oz. size, which is actually quite reasonable. I am going to use the ones I purchased primarily as body washes b/c I have 3 shampoos/conditioners to use up as it is already before I even get to the WVS stuff I purchased after the sale. However, I will probably give each one I bought at least 1 test run as a shampoo.

Blueberry Muffin, Birthday Cake, & Raspberry Tart are marked as being "new" on the Zotos website. So that's probably why these haven't shown up yet. Out of those 3, I want to try Birthday Cake & Raspberry Tart. And of course, I also want to try the LE Strawberry Shortcake one. I think Fryl, Kimberleigh, & I have a little "I Love Strawberry Scented Things Club" going on.

Since this was a quick shopping trip, I didn't smell Apple Pie or Cinnamon Roll b/c those weren't my thing. I purchased Key Lime Pie & Chocolate Brownie & have gotten the chance to smell those.

Key Lime Pie: Tarty lime scent; kinda similar to Philosophy Señorita Margarita
Chocolate Brownie: A light chocolate scent; definitely different than VS Chocolate Craving & TD Chocolate Fondue
