| - Another stop (actually, make that 3 stops already, and counting) on my ongoing bakery tour of Las Vegas.
I was kind of skeptical of Sweet Ruby Jane's because it seemed like a blatant rip-off of the famous Sweet Lady Jane bakery in LA. It may be that, but I don't care because this Jane has delicious treats. I think I have sampled all of the cookies and they are all good, but the best are the oatmeal (it doesn't even taste like oatmeal! more like a light sugar cookie with an oat-y texture) and the toffee. So good. They are big, thin cookies, so not too doughy, but they are still soft. I also had the chocolate-dipped pretzels (good) and several of the dipped marshmallows (milk chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel, toffee...delicious!). I see reviews for chocolate-covered grahams, so I will definitely be trying those next.
The little store is super cute, with outdoor seating (kinda sucks if the weather is hot, cold, or windy) and the owner was very friendly.
Also of note were the prices here - $9 for a dozen cookies! In the bakery world, that's pretty reasonable. And I can't remember the exact price, but I think the marshamallows are about $0.50 each.
