Sweet treats

Many of our baked products contain nuts, and those that do not are made and baked in the same kitchen.

Irish Soda Bread
Some may call this a cake more than a bread, but whatever your opinion, you will call it delicious. Whole wheat and white flours, buttermilk, dark and golden raisins. Great with tea, of course, but don't limit your enjoyment of this fine loaf. St Patrick's Day may have passed, but soda bread is good any time of year.

With caraway seeds or without, your choice. We suggest with caraway seeds!
One loaf, about 2 lbs., $22

Whole wheat and oat scones

Savoy
Light as clouds, moist and slightly sweet, Savoy scones are hand crafted, and made with unbleached white flour, pure butter, a bit of sugar and cream. Our Savoy scones are studded with currants or other dried fruit (dried blueberries or dried strawberries are lovely alternatives; let us know what you prefer). These scones make a welcome addition to breakfast or a neat little mid-morning snack at your desk. And don't forget that cup of coffee or tea in the afternoon.

Whole wheat and oats
Made with unbleached white flour, whole wheat flour, oats, brown sugar, butter and buttermilk, these scones are light and moist despite their hearty ingredients. They're delicious, too.

$18 per dozen; scones freeze beautifully and re-heat easily—so order two dozen!

Biscotti
Our hand-crafted, premium biscotti are filled with the best nuts and dried fruit, all in a perfect balance of flavor and texture. The following flavors are our most popular:

  • Almond apricot
  • Chocolate hazelnut
  • Chocolate pistachio

Delicious with coffee or tea, even milk. All natural ingredients, no artificial colors or flavors, never any preservatives. European-style biscotti are sold by the pound.

1 lb: $15         3 lbs: $42

Brownies
Rich and fudgy, but not overly heavy, with a deep, satisfying chocolate flavor. Our brownies are made with the finest quality chocolate and freshest sweet butter—no vegetable oils or trans fats here. Perfect for Valentine's Day or any day. If you are looking for a new obsession you have come to the right place!

Brownies can be made with or without nuts. Most popular choices are walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts (when available) and pistachios. White chocolate chips make a nice color and flavor contrast.

1 pound, $16.

Chocolate caramels
The perfect marriage of quality chocolate and rich caramel, dusted with sweetened imported cocoa powder. These little hand-crafted confections are soft, not hard, delicious and irresistible.
6 ounce box: $12

Chocolate pillow cookies
Beautiful rounds of dark chocolate dusted with confectioners' sugar. Perfect with a glass of milk, a cup of tea or coffee, or even a post-dinner digestif.
How can something so chocolaty and good also be so light? Who knows! Try them for yourself! Perhaps you'll come up with an answer!

Chocolate pillow cookies contain ground almonds, though you may be hard pressed to find them.

Two inches in diameter, $18 per pound. Store in a cool place (they are so good, you may discover that they don't stick around that long).

French Apple Cake

French apple cake
Calvados and lightly caramelized apples give this moist cake a wonderfully warm flavor. The French call this a gateau grande-mère because it's homey and comforting. You will love this cake!
Approximately 9 inches in diameter: $30 

GugelhupfRetouch2.jpg
Golden Gugelhupf

Guglhupf
Sometimes spelled "Gugelhupf" and "Kugelhopf", but no matter. A slice of this goldeny, yummy, buttery cake is the perfect treat for a mid-afternoon snack or a simple dessert. 
Try it yourself and you'll see.  Served with a dollop of Schlagobers (whipped cream) and a good cup of coffee, you and your friends will be transported to Old Vienna...  Squint your eyes and your old tabby just might look like Kaiser Franz Joseph.

Our Guglhupf is a premium quality cake, the epitome of homey, comforting European-style baking. We offer four types at present:

 - Old fashioned vanilla and rum
 - Orange and poppy seed
 - Almond raisin
 - Banana

Approximately 9 inches in diameter: $25
