Our mothers taught us that it's polite to bring along something special when going to someone's house. You might call it a "hostess gift," but no matter the host or occasion, we just call it sweet. Whether you're going to a Champagne-filled New Year's Eve bash or an indulgent New Year's Day brunch, we've rounded up a few things that any host would be happy to have.1. Whisper Cake - While it's not an official holiday item, this popular cake with it's fruit-filled layers would pair nicely with a glass of Champagne.2. Holiday Tart - Filled with cranberries, pecans, orange zest and caramel, this tart makes for a tasty treat any time of day.3. Brown Sugar Shortbread Holiday Cookies - Cut into stars and adorned with crystal sugar, these cookies will bring a touch of sparkle to the party.4. Sardinian Flatbread with a savory spread - In addition to our Roasted Artichoke Spread (pictured), we have a variety of seasonal spreads that pair perfectly with our Sardinian Flatbread.5. Cassata Cake - Chocolate lovers swoon for our Cassata Cake (pictured) and gluten-free Mini Gianduja. Both desserts are loaded with rich chocolate flavor, but our Mini Gianduja is a triple-threat with chocolate espresso, chocolate hazelnut and chocolate ganache!6. Budapest Coffee Cake Ring - Our classic sour cream coffee cake laced with a swirl of cinnamon, cocoa, brown sugar, raisins and toasted walnuts makes a great brunch addition.
