"Gross Confection Bar will open the first week of January in Portland. Owner Brant Dadaleares puts dessert front and center, offering desserts for one, two, or four or more people, consisting of cakes, parfait, tarts, custard, and so much more. There will also be ice cream, chocolate and confections, and cheese, plus a selection of cocktails, wine, ports, and sherry." - Dana Hatic
