Places and What I Wanted to Marry*:
These are in no particular order - just whatever you're craving.
1) Specialty's Bakery & Café
U. Village, next to the Gap
OR 1023 3rd Ave (downtown)
*Whatever cookies have just come out of the oven. You once left a Roller Derby event early, to get to Specialty's in U. Village before it closed. Your friends were somewhat appalled. But those are some GU-HUUUUD cookies, and you very clearly have a cookie problem.
2) Metropolitan Market/bakery section
2320 42nd Ave SW (West Seattle)
OR
1908 Queen Anne Ave N. (Queen Anne)
*No Bake cookies - peanut butter, oatmeal, chocolate - you get three, to go, and try to only eat one on the way home. Good luck.
3) The Dilettante on Broadway
416 Broadway Ave E (Capitol Hill)
*The Dilettante Frappe--a mix of iced milk and Ephemere Sauce--is a specialty of the house.
4) Simply Desserts
3421 Fremont Ave N.
*Carrot Cake - eat your vegetables!
5) Macrina Bakery
2408 1st Avenue (Belltown)
615 West McGraw Street (Queen Anne)
19603 Vashon Hwy. SW (V'shawn)
*Lemon poppyseed cake - Layered with vanilla scented mascarpone cream & seasonal fruit. Frosted with a lemon- cream cheese butter cream - makes you pucker just thinking about it.
6) Trophy Cupcakes
1815 N. 45th St. (Wallingford Center)
*Red Velvet cupcake - but you must try the Chai and triple chocolate as well. Your extra-stomach implant surgery is scheduled for next week.
7) Starbucks
Everywhere
*Oat Fudge Bar - since these have oatmeal, they can technically be breakfast.
8) See's Candies
1518 4th Ave - Downtown (or a squillion other locations)
*Maple cream chocolates - you can fill up an entire box with these. Box, bedspread, whatever.
9) Cow Chip Cookies
102A 1st Ave. S. - Pioneer Square
16481 NE 74th St. - Redmond
418 Ramsay Way #103 - Kent
*Milk Chocolate chip w/walnuts - you used to be able to get these at the Mariner's games...what happened there?
10) Holly's Desserts
1907 10th Ave W (Queen Anne)
*Macaroons - if they are out, ask nicely and they will make another batch right there. It takes about 20 minutes. They're worth the wait. And coconut is a fruit, right?
