Sheila G's Original Brownie Brittle announces their partnership with The Weinstein Company (TWC) to be the official dessert of their Golden Globe dinner and after party. The partnership kicked off in November with the Silver Linings Playbook Premieres in New York and Los Angeles.

Brownie Brittle founder Sheila G Mains will be creating specialty brownies and champagne brownie truffles for the events to add a bit of sweetness to TWC's outstanding film nominees this season.

The Weinstein Company leads this year's Golden Globe nominations with 15, in various categories, for DJANGO UNCHAINED, SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK, THE MASTER, KON-TIKI, QUARTET, and THE INTOUCHABLES.

"I am honored to create special sweets for such prestigious award events," said Sheila G. "Each party will have only the best chocolate delights to celebrate such amazing films."
