Thank you, Sumano Family, for being literally the only local bakery left that does NOT use enriched…read morewheat flour, (which is basically flour of wheat infused with synthetic folic acid and who knows what else).

Doing U-pick is fun: rounded up for the fun factor. The fruit is not organic. In case you want to…read moreeat the U-pick fruit on the spot: Bring a basket with holes in the bottom, and bottled water, so that you can rinse the fruit before eating. The lineup: 5/5: U-pick boysenberries: June 4: Blenheim apricots, June: $3.70/pound. About 70% were ripe. 3: Dutch apple pie. Kind of meh. 3: Strawberry shortcake. Bring your own maple syrup and pour some on top; it needs some sweetness. 2: Cherry pie. Kinda meh. For boysenberries, consider wearing latex gloves to keep your hands from getting stained red.

Every now and then, during strawberry season, we pop into Gizdich Ranch, seeking out a Strawberry…read morePie like one that we got about 8 years ago. While we didn't see it listed on the menu board, when my wife asked the order taker, she knew exactly what we wanted and told her that the wait would be 15 minutes as they made them to order. OMG, it was beautiful! Loaded with fresh strawberries and just enough glaze to bind it, the glaze did not overwhelm the taste of the strawberries. You can't really slice it as created. Instead, you pick off some of the fruit on top until it's down to a manageable height and then we use a large spoon to parse it out. Whipped cream? Ice cream? Both would be excellent accompaniments to be sure, but we used neither.

Everyone loved the cake flavor, i overheard the kiddos talking about how tasty and fluffy the frosting was. The matcha flavor was prominent and with a muted sweetness, it was a hit!

A Baker Gem in the Sunset Beach Community. Finally took the…read moreopportunity to try out Bobby's baked goods. I had seen his sign for months at 31 Mesa Way driving up to our beach house and decided to order his Cinnamon Buns. They were great. And the best part is Bobby the baker delivers them to your home on Sunday morning (in the Sunset Beach community). We had tried them twice with no complaints. He has a menu he emails once a week with other great items like scones, stromboli, savory pasties, etc. Will love to try some of these on his menu the next time we are in town. (Email him at bobbybaker1133@gmail.com to request the weekly menu.) I haven't been there, but he also sells his baked goods at the Corralitos Farmers Market. We would need to check out that market too. :-)

(There are always hot cinnamon buns, which are a favorite)
