Delicious bakery 🧁 but pricy. I was looking for tiramisu they didn’t have one.. well ok , got some awesome almond -caramel cookies. Then went to regular grocery store with bakery . For the price of those cookies I can buy 2 Tiramisu cakes 🎂 🤔
If you’re in Evanston looking for donuts… Bennison’s. Grew up getting donuts here and maybe it’s the childhood nostalgia? But from the line that circles this place every morning I doubt it. Donuts are always fresh and tasty. But my favorites are the danishes and Maple Bacon donuts!
Delicious atomic cake. The croissants are very good also especially if u get them fresh in the morning.
I ordered a lemon meringue pie for a special occasion. And while I suspect there was flavorings in it. My partner enjoyed it very much. I just wasn't up for making one from scratch. I also have been enjoying the Irish Soda bread. And I love that it is made with whole wheat and not refined flour which I do not eat. I would love it even more if it were made with honey. I like bennison's for certain things.
We bought a cheese cake(in the pic) two croissant, a bag of 🍞 and a dozen of chocolate cookies.
The shopping assistant was really friendly and helped us a lot. She is talkative and we would definitely be returning costumers.
For the foods, the one surprise me most is the cheesecake. I was afraid it would be so sweet but it didn’t. It tastes like yogurt and super soft. It melt the time reaches into the mouth. I broiled a cup of jasmine green tea without sugar or honey. they fits so well together, I would highly recommend taking the tea and cheesecake at the same time.
The croissants 🥐 were really crispy , however the inside is soft and have a perfect smell of butter. I regret I only bought two of them. Quite sure they would taste better after re-heated and serve with butter on the top.
The cookie with chocolate is a dark chocolate brand. Though I personally prefer milk chocolate rather than dark chocolate. I asked my husband, who is a huge dark chocolate fan, he appreciated all the cookie(we bought a dozen)and finished them in one day xD.
This is a excellent shop, will visit the other day.
I also wonder will there be fresh-baked croissant in the early morning. So I can bike all the way there and enjoy ☺️
The macarons here are better than in France. Or at least - as good as. I am picky, this is true, I'm GF so I can't eat much more, but my family loves everything else on offer. A wide range of fresh products and small-town charm.
