AUTUMN/WINTER OFFERINGS

    Long Shadows Mean Cozy Food

     So the days are shorter, cloudier, rainier, cozier, and we are finally ready to introduce our new Autumn/Winter 2010 Wholesale Offerings. Which means you can count on seeing a couple old favorites and some totally new (pretty stellar) vegan baked goods in your local markets & cafes in the next week or so! And if you know of a market, cafe or restaurant that you think should carry Dovetail Bakery goods, please let us know! We always appreciate suggestions & feedback!

     For these new items, as well as all everything we make, we select our ingredients carefully making sure to prioritize locally & sustainably grown sources as often as possible. We always use a light hand with our sweeteners so you can count on really tasting the ingredients! When you bake with amazing ingredients you don't need to cover it up with extra sugar. With that said, I'd like you to meet...

Chocolate Cherry Bun: Tender extra dark cocoa yeasted dough wrapped around semisweet chocolate and locally grown plump dried cherries, topped with a dark cocoa glaze. Totally amazing.

Lemon Poppyseed Muffin: Full of organic lemon zest and crunchy poppyseeds. A little taste of sunshine to brighten your winter mornings!

Pumpkin Muffin with Gingery Pepita Streusel: One of our most popular muffins is back and even better! Made with organic pumpkin and topped with crisp pumpkin seedy gingery streusel, a total winner!

Brown Sugar Hazelnut Scone: Our famous tender flaky scone, layered with organic cinnamon, homemade organic brown sugar (yes, we make our own brown sugar!), and toasted Albina City Hazelnuts.

Apple Rosemary Scone: Celebrity scone! One of my all time favorites scones, another Dovetail Bakery Original (featured as the inspiration for a recipe in Vegan Brunch by Isa Chandra Moskowitz), sweet chunks of locally grown organic apples and a hint of aromatic rosemary make for a uniquely delicious flavor combination!

Dark Chocolate Mocha Loaf Cake: Rich and bittersweet loaf cake full of extra dark cocoa & locally roasted Courier Coffee, topped with a dark chocolate glaze for an extra hint of rich chocolate sweetness.

Rosemary Garlic Corn Muffin: The corniest corn muffin. Crisp on the outside & moist on the inside, full of organic cornmeal, fresh rosemary & garlic. Perfect with a cup of soup or a salad, or on its own as an afternoon snack.

Come sample some of these upcoming pastries and

a photo tour from 2008

so friends, i thought i would keep you updated with some photos...


remember the days when jesse's sister joann visited from the faraway land of edmonton canada and we took a walk in forest park...




and then arctic blast 2008 hit...
dang, remember that?
our trusty delivery truck slid around so bad we had to cancel the whole entire weeks deliveries...
a few tears were shed and then we moved on the business at hand, enjoying some major snow days!!!



so we grilled..




and crafted...




and then invited family over because we needed some outside human contact. baby wren can make even sauteeing onions into the best time ever! i think it's all that cheek on her face, or maybe the wooden spoon that was in her mouth for what seemed like a lifetime in baby years.


still chewing, now with mom...


and still more, now with grandma...
baby years might even be longer than dog years. it's possible...


and now we are back to good old regular portland winter! i hope you all had amazing holidays of all types and are gearing up to enjoy 2009 BEST YEAR EVER!!! we certainly are!
HAPPY NEW YEAR from all of us, and thanks for all your support, we send you awesome vibes of gratitude every single day!!!
XOXOXO!!!!!
love,
morgan & all of dovetail bakery
