Description

Beyond the mainstays, the selection includes fruit tarts, pecan rolls, and linzer cookies. The signature black-and-whites are offered in both their original large size and mini versions, with a recipe that avoids being overly sweet. The kitchen also caters to dietary needs with a line of vegan, plant-based, and parve kosher desserts. While a single bench provides outdoor seating, some visitors note occasional communication issues when arranging custom orders.
