| - I had to wait to try a few more things before I updated, and I did, so here we go.
Of course I went back for another date square, and it was wonderful.
But now it has a serious rival in the flaxseed muffin.
Topped with pepitas, the muffin was moist, soft, with that bit of crunch that balances the texture.
It could go with a dash of butter or Earth Balance but that is not necessary.
I had it with an apple and called it lunch.
My iced Americano kept its integrity even as the ice melted while I strolled.
That's a good test of a proper iced coffee, and I enjoyed this one to the very end.
On other visits I've tried the Paleo-friendly moelleux au chocolate which was deliciously dense, rich and filling. It makes the thought of 'chocolate as food' believable.
The brownies, with or without the caramel / pecan topping, were light and packed with flavour.
Considering all the sampling I've been doing, I decided to break up the brownie into little squares. They have lasted a couple of days, offering that hit of dark chocolate when I want one.
The caramel topping - like everything else - is made in-house: thick, not too sweet, with an undertone that enhances the chocolate and pecans.
Blueberry muffins, pecan cookies, banana walnut bread - everything I've tried has its own distinct texture and taste that does not try and mimic its 'gluten' counterparts. Rather, each stands out as its own delightful treat.
Up next: the carrot cake cupcake. I can't wait !
