"The owner implemented nonprofit-recommended protocols at her bakeries in Glendale and Echo Park and shared an Instagram video demonstrating how those measures were being put into practice to protect staff and customers during enforcement sweeps." - Mona Holmes
"Valerie Gordon’s everyday sweets are highly coveted, but her special occasion pies take it to the next level. Always check in to see what’s in the oven because her baking inspiration is seasonal or depends on Gordon’s mood. She’s currently baking crusty circular treats filled with Pink Lady apples and rhubarb, and blueberry lemon curd hand pies. If visiting during the early hours, try one of the breakfast hand pies with scrambled eggs, ham, and melted Swiss cheese." - Mona Holmes
"Valerie’s Confections will commence tea service on March 29 with two garden seatings at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.; reservations are required and a full menu has been made available in advance." - Mona Holmes
"Celebrating 20 years with a 31-piece grand assortment designed for slow enjoyment, featuring almond fleur de sel toffee, mint toffee, black pepper truffles, scotch truffles, liquid caramel bon bons, almond toffee, and 72-percent cacao bon bons — a selection intended to offer "something new for every day (or hour)." - Matthew Kang
