A Few Favorites from the Logan Square Pastry Market
Logan Square Kitchen was packed this weekend with local artisans selling cream puffs, macarons, croissants, chocolates and other treats. Miss your chance to gorge yourself? Here are a few standouts worth tracking down.
Bagels from De La Rue pastry
Flavorful, chewy bagels in all kinds of flavors. Including (drum roll) a salt bagel. Enough said.
Passionfruit macarons from Sweet Spot macarons
To quote the New York Times, "Your slacker boyfriend gives you a cupcake; your lover gives you macarons."
The new candy bars from Mayana Chocolate
Like a homemade Twix bar -- sweet, salty, crunchy and caramel-y.
Passionfruit curd from Rare Bird Preserves
Are we sensing a theme here? Silky and tart and bright.
Stay tuned for news of the next pastry market, which will be before the holidays Valentine's Day.
