Mango Banana Bread.
i know.mangos?but what about yr digestive tract?
whatever.it's mango season,and this is just a teaser.more mango madness to come.
Banana Bread French Toast with Carmelized Bananas and Candied Pecans.
i needed as many banana peels as possible for my 3DD final project,so i baked a lot of banana bread.
saved some,let it get stale,and made french toast.so amazing.how do you make banana bread even better?fry it with a lot of sugar,nuts,maple syrup,and more bananas-DUH.
Strawberry Almond Banana Bread.
super moist from the strawberries,but delightfully crunchy from the almonds.heck yes.
two ways to enjoy:
with latte,from stumptown for breakfast.
slathered with peanut butter.zomg.
Calimryna Fig Banana Bread.
crunchy,chewy dried figs,ya'll can hangout in my banana bread any time.
great melange of textures.
moving away from banana bread..
White Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies Sammiches.
the best cookies ever,dolled up with white chocolate peanut butter and studded with vegan white chips,spread thick with more white chocolate pb,and some fat banana slices.heeey-o.

Chocolate Chunk Cookies.
old school,easy,perfect,pleasing.why not?
and why not enjoy with an ecco kaffe el salvador espresso macchiato at kaffe 1668?eh?
Strawberry Banana Danish.
i'm so glad strawberries are at the farmer's market(and everywhere else...)now.local,ripe strawberries are amazing,bananas are amazing,and oh yeah,maybe flaky pastry is,too.
Peanut Butter and Jelly Bars.
with (speaking of!)fresh strawberries and strawberry jelly.
these are ridiculous.fudgy,rich,pb blondies and thick ooey fruit swirl.often i wonder how a pb&j can be improved on..oh wait...
and there's been quite a few special baking orders....
Triple Chocolate Layer Cake
for a dad's birthday.
well,diana's dad's...but making this cake is how i met diana!good to meet new vegan friends.especially though making moist chocolate cake with 2 types of chocolate frosting/filling for their father's birthdays.
Cherry Pretzel Danishes.
when i was asked to make these at first,i thought it sounded crazy.
then i tried the baker's of the baker's dozen...
sweet,salty,gooey,crunchy,soft,hard...oh man.oh,and flaky and buttery.hi.
danishes for sale at everyman espresso...(fridays and sundays!!!)
and of course,ice cream.from..where else but...

azuki bean with mixed berry compote.
deliciously bean-y.really.i mean,c'mon...it's bean flavoured!
anyways,mixed berry compote is amazing to boot.like mcdonald's strawberry sauce...possibly better...
sweet corn and chocolate twist.
like chocolate chips in popcorn.but cold.i swear.
miso softserve.with mixed berry compote.
the miso ice cream was slightly salty,sweet,and creamy.imagine miso tahini spread ramped up in sweetness a bit,as ice cream.
AMAZING.f'reals.

and,have you heard of NYCicy?
Coconut Icy and Mango-Basil Icy.
i thought basil would be weird,but no.
so refreshing.i mean,it's not ice cream,more like sorbet,better than a popsicle(not talking bad about popsicles...)but fantastic nonetheless.
end of ice cream-y treats.
and here's some delicious-ness,eaten out,that...
a)wasn't my baking
b)wasn't from lula's
c)might be vegan junk food

pb&j thumbprint cookie from the new 'snice in soho.
super dense,in the best way possibly,and ridiculously peanut buttery.

and end with their super-moist...
carrot cake.
