Coffee Cake
Almond Polenta Pound Cake
Karen’s favorite baked good in the whole place. This pound cake is special because it has polenta and almond paste in it. It’s great on it’s own, luxurious as shortcake, perfect when it’s toasted and drizzled with honey.

Whole Blueberries and Lemon Zest flavor this moist and low-fat (can you believe it?) Cinnamon sugar-topped Coffee Cake. Available year round, though available to substitute with cranberries in the fall/winter months.
