| - I was on this side of Henderson yesterday (2/22/14) and I randomly began thinking about my grandpa who passed a few years ago. He loved German food, polka, all of that, because his mom, my great grandma came to the US from the Austro-Hungarian empire. Because I was randomly reminiscing while out shopping, I decided I was going to pick up some German baked goods for my mom (who is basically my Grandpa's twin, minus the polka music.)
I wanted to try to get an assortment. Day old stuff is $1.80 and I'm always cool with that so I grabbed a slice of beesting cake and German cheesecake at that price. I also got a rumball, a pretzel stick and a jelly doughnut thing (forgot the name.) It came in at around $6.50. Not bad.
I took my goodies over to my parents' house and my mom cut every item into 5 pieces so my parents and 2 of my siblings and I could try each thing. Obviously the 8 & 10 year old hated the rum ball because it is super strong, but they really liked the pretzel stick. My dad said that my mom's cheesecake is way better, but they both agreed that they loved the beesting cake. The doughnut thing was neither here nor there in terms of likability.
Overall, I'd say it was a nice treat but I'd probably try some other things next time, but I'd definitely get more beesting cake and pretzel sticks.
