We were in town for a funeral, after a meal at the diner, I wanted to stop and get some treats for the ride home to MD. Picked up: Cherry Top cookies, brownies, coffee cake and apple turnovers. They all looked great, and they still use little white boxes, with red/white string..so cute.
The pastries however were a great disappointment. The coffee crumb cake was impossibly dry, actually inedible. Now it was 4:00 in the afternoon, so it might have been sitting out all day, however that is when it's incumbent on management to throw it out! Wegman's has MUCH superior coffee cake, We call the Wegman's product "Crack Cake"
The brownies were cake like, which I prefer. The issue was they were TOO MUCH like cake with a modicum of very small nuts, and not an ounce of fudge in them. Again we bought two, shared one, tossed the second.
The cherry cookies were tasty, the cookie could have been bigger in relation to the size of the cherry. But good flavour. I actually prefer the cherry cookies from my local supermarket (Giant in MD, Stop and Shop in NYC)
The apple turnovers were for my cousin, so I did not sample.
There are many nice bakeries in Queens/Long Island, unfortunately on this day Tulip Bake Shop missed the mark.
