Thanksgiving at Sweet Pea Bakery: New traditions for your holiday table

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

Bakers love Thanksgiving! Think of it, an entire holiday based on gathering with friends and family around great food, and appreciating life’s many gifts. What could be better? At your next gathering of loved ones, fill up in style with a made from scratch dessert from Sweet Pea Bakery.

Because we love Thanksgiving, we have been hard at work perfecting our holiday specials menu. Starting today you can order seasonal treats both familiar and surprising. Familiar like a deep dish pumpkin pie in a flaky, hand-rolled crust. Surprising like our moist Devil’s Food chocolate cake filled with real homemade caramel sauce and finished with caramel Italian buttercream.

Looking to make an impression at the holiday table? Bring along our new favorite, Sour Cherries Frangipane. Our buttery almond shortbread tart is perfectly complemented with a ring of cherries. Serve it warm with fresh whipped cream and it will be your new favorite, too. Frangipane is a European treat that is a big hit with our customers who aren’t big fans of chocolate. Of course, you can always balance the table with a flourless torte from our dessert menu Call us at 586-8200 for pick up or delivery, and please give 48 hours notice.

The Sweet Pea bakers hope you all find a moment in this season to be thankful for what you’ve got, too. Things can get a little crazy in this life, but we are surrounded by amazing people and opportunities. Often it’s just a matter of taking the time to notice. We are thankful for the support of our customers, friends and families. Happy holidays, everyone.

Not another tie: This year, get dad something you know he will love.

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Father’s day is a tough holiday to shop for. Unlike mom, who is happy to drop hints about what she would like for her special day, dad is more reserved. You have to be paying attention to get at what he really wants. You might notice a casual comment, a hint of a smile and then it’s gone.

If you can’t figure out what will make your dad smile this Father’s Day (June 15th) we have a suggestion: Get him a made-from-scratch cake or dessert from Sweet Pea Bakery. We have a great list of dad-tested favorites he’s sure to remember, even when last year’s tie is being used as a shop rag.

Made from scratch

German Chocolate cake is a good one; not only do dads love chocolate cake, maybe he could never enjoy his favorite because the kids didn’t like coconut. Maybe dad had to sacrifice his love for Key Lime Pie all those years because you were picky about citrus. Maybe he never got as much Cheesecake as he would like because you and your brother were always fighting over the big piece. It’s never too late to make it up to him. Pay him back with a dessert he can share with mom, or keep all to himself.

Is your dad more low-key? Maybe he would like a warm batch of cookies delivered to work. Sweet Pea Bakery can do that, too. Call us @ 406 586-8200 to place your Father’s Day order by June 12th to be picked up or delivered on the 15th.
