This week’s installment of Bakery Monday keeps it local (for me, anyway). Three Tarts Bakery, in Northfield, IL, has a wonderful pastry case whether you’re searching for a breakfast treat, a small snack, or a birthday cake. I love that they will personalize a birthday cake while you wait – kind of a reward for procrastinating! Three Tarts also serve a variety of sandwiches, soups, and salads at lunch. After my usual chicken artichoke sandwich, my go-to dessert used to be the coconut cake, and it is outstanding. But then, I tried the chocolate “Country Fair” cake. Soooo rich and soooo yummy. Thankgfully, they serve cake by the slice, but it’s also now our birthday cake flavor-of choice. If you live in Chicago, you must go! Located at 301 South Happ Road, off of Willow Road (a stone’s throw from the Edens). Enjoy!
