Stop on by and get it while you can!

We've forged this vision into a reality and we've named it Cinnamon Boast Bunch.
It's an original creation, like Rickey Rouse and Monald Muck.
Here's a look at the freshly-baked puff pastries that make the foundation for our Ice Cream Hoagies. We don't want to be presumptuous, but we're betting that our shop smells better than wherever you happen to be at the moment.
