Recipe: Lemon Squares

Stephanie August 15, 2024

We were thrilled when our friend and customer, Malaine Rubin, founder and owner of Laine Too an interactive events agency based in Chicago shared her stunning lemon squares with us. Lemon squares, an American classic since the 1960s, have become a favorite at gatherings like weddings and baby showers for their delicious taste, elegant look, and ease of preparation, making them ideal for catered events.Allowing guests to add Ripples prints to their lemon squares, generously topped with powdered sugar, makes your dessert bar interactive and Instagrammable. The Ripple Maker drink printing machine adds tiny dots of plant-based vegetable extract (these lemon square use black carrot extract!) to the top of a drink or dessert. With the versatile Ripples platform you’re able to add any illustration, message, or picture to surprise your guests. For optimal results with lemon square, keep the bars chilled until ready to serve, and choose high contrast line art illustrations for your Ripples print designs.
