Umpleby's Bakery & Café

The countdown begins.  One month until St. Patrick’s Day!  Why is this so important to chronicle?  I’ll tell you why.  There are a lot, and I mean a lot of fun things to cook and bake (and drink) for St. Patrick’s Day! In a way it’s more fun than Easter or Christmas.  There is traditional lunch food, traditional desserts, traditional baked goods and it doesn’t revolve around chocolate which is quite a relief in a way.  I’ll explain more in further posts.  The important thing now is to get excited about the approaching holiday!  And Éirinn go Brách !  My mother’s maiden name is Dugan I’ll have you know!

We have heart shaped cookies and eclairs and truffles and all sorts of other delicious, colorful desserts for your special Valentine.

And then the color changes to green in a few weeks to Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day!

So you drank your shots of whiskey, begged for some beads, ate some sublime doughnuts, listened to some Zydeco music, and passed out watching All Creatures Great and Small on Netflix in front of the computer.  Okay, enough about me, let’s talk about Valentine’s day!  :)

The cupids of love have nothing on what we are doing here at Umpleby’s!

There are chocolate covered strawberries, chocolate soufflé cakes (flour-less of course), heart shaped sugar cookies, truffles, chocolate stuff, and other chocolate stuff and some other delicious baked goods for your Valentine here at Umpleby’s!
