Farmer's Market: Brian's Bakery Magic

Walking around the Farmer's Market this past Saturday, I approached a vendor in order to take a picture of the baked goods they had for sale. The lady behind the table told me that she was a reader of the blog and saw that I had posted an article on Beulah's Bake for U2. She told me that she enjoyed the blog and wanted to get Brian's Bakery Magic out there for the world to see as well. I received a cinnamon roll and a slice oof Mama's Pound Cake from her, sat down, and dug in it with my laptop open next to me. These are my thoughts...

Cherry Pecan Cinnamon Roll

I bit into a layer of very sweet icing first, then into the warmth of cinnamon laden baked dough. Inside the roll was what seemed to be a cherry jelly as well as bits of dried cherries and roasted pecans. The bread was stiff enough to hold the cinnamon roll's contents inside without being so hard as to break your teeth on it! The pecans seemed roasted and went well with the cherry flavoring. The icing on top, which may have also had a hint of cinnamon in it, also went well with the mix. While it kind of fell apart on me toward the end, that was okay, it was still mouth-watering and delicious. Perhaps it would be best to have it warmed up and eaten with a fork.

I don't cross many a cinnamon rolls in my day, but I could tell that this one was unique in flavor due to the cherry and pecan. It was pretty sweet, so definitely don't have it for breakfast or in place of a substantial meal! Instead, it is suitable for a well-portioned dessert.


Mama's Pound Cake


Nor do I have much experience with pound cake, so this was kind of new to me as well. It had a strong vanilla taste and, while the cake slice was dense, it was very soft and sweet. I'd recommend it with a cup of coffee or perhaps some milk from The Garden Herb Shop.


In conclusion, quality is still found just around the corner... You simply need to know where to look. :)
