Local and somewhat mysterious pastry chef, Suzanne M., delivers freshly baked goodies every Wednesday to the West Cafe. You can only get her amazing creations at the West Cafe restaurant as she works exclusively with cafe owners, Doug and Sean. Her items sell out quickly so come in soon to ensure the best selection. Here’s a list of what she dropped by this week:

The Ultimate Strawberry Cupcake
Remember those strawberry cupcakes your Mom put in your lunch box when you were a kid? Those ingredients you couldn’t pronounce that made them last till the end of the school year…well you won’t find them in these little gems. The most delicious strawberry cupcake ever. Simple yet sophisticated topped with candied lilac petals.

Almond-Orange Shortbread
This week we are featuring in our cookie assortment a delicate, flavorful cookie loaded with almonds and orange zest…perfect with a warming cup of tea to chase away the chills.

Your Grandma’s Apple Pie (even better!)
Cinnamon spiced apples with an incredible luscious butter crumb topping. Be daring and order a la mode and your 401k balance won’t seem so bleak as you revel in the comfort and nostalgia this dessert brings!

The West Cafe exclusively offers Suzanne’s sumptuous cookies and cakes at their downtown Portland, OR restaurant.
