I have a ridiculous sweet tooth and last week I had read an article about whoopie pies and decided I needed to try one immediately. Nona's is down the street from work and I was planning on Panera for lunch anyway, so I stopped in. I sort of wandered around staring at all the cases and tried to determine what I wanted to try.
I went with a lemon square, a pumpkin pie bar, rainbow cookies, a traditional whoopie pie, an almond cupcake with almond frosting and some other cookies that I forgot the name of.
The cupcake I ate after lunch and saved the rest to bring home. It was light and moist and very fresh tasting, the frosting was definitely sweet and there was a lot of it. All in all it was good and I felt it was like eating a glass of amaretto. The rainbow cookies were good, whoopie pie was great and my sister said it tasted like a devil dog! Lemon square was good at first but after sitting in the fridge a few days it got a funky taste. Pumpkin pie bar was awesome.
Came back again this week because I had a bad morning on Wed and decided I deserved a cupcake. I decided to get one for my sis and some others to sample. Pumpkin cupcake with cream cheese frosting was amazing! It was denser then regular cupcakes but so moist I love it. Red velvet was okay, but lemon was good. I also tried the anise sprinkle cookies, they weren't great and I was disappointed because those are some of my favorite cookies.
It's not really cheap, cookies are priced individually and cupcakes are $2.50 each but its delish so I will continue to pay for the yummy treats!
