| - Having recently moved to this part of town, I'm looking for new dining/snack options.
My wife brought home toffee and four different cookies for us to share recently.
Pecan Chocolate Chip Toffee -- 4/5 -- I would get this again, or pick it up as a small gift for friends/family. The texture is very good, and the flavor balances well with plenty of chocolate chips and chopped pecans throughout.
S'More Sandwich -- 1/5 -- Very dry, crumbly, and light on flavor. Chocolate gnache top was flavorless, and the marshmallow filling was rubbery.
Molasses -- 1/5 -- Ginger flavor was present, but without the punch. The mouthfeel/texture of this cookie was more firm than others, and not quite as dry and crumbly.
Mocha Chocolate Chip -- 1/5 -- Faint mocha flavoring in the chocolate gnache, but this was another cookie that seemingly had nothing right in terms of texture or taste.
Peanut Butter Kiss -- 1/5 -- Looked like a properly baked PB Kiss Cookie. I spit it out.
We didn't finish any of the four cookies, and across the board, each variation lacked sweetness and was dry. Everything *looked* good, and we are always hoping to support local businesses. Service was quick and friendly.
By most other accounts, this is a good bakery, so we'll likely go back and try some different things because there are plenty of positive reviews for other items. Will revisit this review at that time.
