Fall is here and we are getting cozy at the shop with seasonal treats for you. I have to say the alley is extra nice right now with the air a little crisper but the late fall sun still warming the alley, come join us before the rain and cold make it harder to be outside!

Thanksgiving orders are live, we’ll be serving up slices of the tarts on the Thanksgiving menu this weekend so you can try them, along with this upside pear ginger cake with a little bit of creme fraiche whipped cream. We are working on our gift certificates (classes and tea+cake) for the holidays and will have them in the shop starting this weekend for you!
