Well, we tried Cafe de Boston’s version, and now, here is the Crumb’s knockoff of the cronut, the “crumbnut”. While I was bummed out that we were only able to snag the plain version, they were out of the cream or jelly filled kinds, I still ate this pretty happily. The crumbnut was light and […]

November 4, 2013 Cookie Sandwich Company

We decided that for our wedding we would do cookies and milk. We have been to countless weddings that give favors that we end up tossing at the end of the night – in my book, food is always the way to go. Plus, after dancing up a storm, your guests are going to go […]
