I noticed that this corner shop has changed hands yet again. It's been several different owners and menus over the years. None have suited me in the past but this time It might. I walked by and saw they had lots of pastries on the counter display area so I stopped in to try something. They were friendly, it was early afternoon and no one else was there so we chatted some. They are a local family, have been at the G\FArmer's Market in the past, and many of the baked items are family recipes and baked on site. They also carry some of the Spruce Confections items, but they are everywhere (not a bad thing, I do like some of them) but I wanted something of their own. I tried the Lemon Poppyseed Cake, and it was quite good. Lightly lemon, and just the right texture. Some I have had around Boulder are overly moist and lemony and sometimes too tart to enjoy This was fine. Next time, I will try their Cinnamon Nut Coffee Cake, another cake I usually like. They had croissants, muffins , scones, etc. There are also lunch items too. I get my morning coffee drink elsewhere for specific reasons of taste and style, as so many decaf espressos are too sour for me.
But I will give this place a try for small items as a treat. It could be another good lunch option nearby as they also do sandwiches. It's nice to have another option on the Hill. Several successful small eateries around Boulder have started as carts at the Farmer's Market before moving on to brick and mortar shops.
