I like to think that "Chuck," as Peppermint Patty liked to call him, might have felt differently for the briefest of moments had he just been given a bite of Janelle's Crumb Shoppe Bakery's Cookies & Cream Cupcakes, Sensational Strawberry Cupcakes, or Caramel Apple Cupcakes. Although honestly, Janelle's cupcakes might have turned the graphic world of Peanuts upside-down, with Lucy forking over her Psychology practice's earnings, Linus surrendering his security blanket, and Schroeder giving up his piano! Luckily, there are no such dire consequences for you. Look for Janelle's Crumb Shoppe Bakery, based in Greenbelt (MD), on her website, where you can order the only things other than the little red-haired girl that could make Charlie Brown's heart flutter faster.

This past weekend I ordered a strawberry shortcake for my mother's birthday dinner. I called the…read moreorder in and told the bakery when I would be there to pick it up. I walk in and to my surprise I did not expect for Chef Lou himself to be standing there to wait on me?! It's kind of like going to Wendy's only to be greeted by the little red head girl with freckles?! (Don't know why I get such a kick out of stuff like that). The bakery (no lie) is about the size of a handicap bathroom stall and is designed for pick up orders only. Chef Lou was very pleasant and talkative. We hit it off immediately. He gave me a complimentary mini sweet potato cake with cream cheese icing. While in the car I took a bite, then another. I could taste hints of orange and lemon, the cake was moist and very firm. The cream cheese frosting was made by scratch. I was impressed, this bakery does not cut corners when it comes to ingredients. Chef Lou also specializes in catering international cuisine such as Mediterranean, Indian, and Caribbean. His cakes are amazing; you can taste the love put into them! The strawberry shortcake was so dainty and the strawberries were fresh. My mom and all her church lady friends were tickled pink! Chef Lou is now my resident baker, I will no longer drive into the city to buy a fancy designer cake, now knowing that I have a gem right here in my own community!

I've been wanting to try out Chef Lou's Desserts for a while now - the last time I went, it was…read moreclosed a little early. However, I was able to finally make it this time around, about half an hour before closing time to see what they had to offer. Chef Lou Parker has been a chef for about 30 years and had this location for about 14 years. He is a really nice guy, and we had a great conversation in regards to the desserts and catering services he offers as well as him trying to offer a 'personal chef/intimate cooking classes' for those who are interested. He apparently caters to the World Bank, NASA, as well as conventions down at the Verizon Center, so I thought that was pretty impressive (he stated that his specialty is 'oriental' food, so I thought that was kind of funny). The place itself is small, so it's only a carry-out or where you call in to get your orders in. He offers pastries (cinnamon rolls, brownies, canollis, eclairs, etc.), pies (lemon, raspberry, French apple, sweet potato, etc.), fruit tarts, cakes, sheet cakes, and ice cream. They had some limited dessert selections, and I did ask if the goods were baked fresh daily (the answer was no, but he did state that they were still fresh) and which desserts were the most popular - Chef Lou stated that pretty much everything in the case, so we got one of each! They were all 'individual-sized:' sweet potato pie, strawberry shortcake, carrot cake, a brownie, a cinnamon roll, a chocolate cupcake, a chocolate-glazed doughnut with sprinkles, and a square bread pudding. My favorite out of them all was the strawberry shortcake, as the shortcake itself wasn't overly sweet and was fluffy, while the macerated strawberries was delicious and a great complement. The others were forgettable, as they were a little stale/too dry/a bit flavorless for my taste. It seems as if this is a favorite local place for grabbing some bargain desserts, for catering services, as well as cake orders for events. I'm glad I was finally able to try this place out! +strawberry shortcake

Honestly, there was no flavor in this dish at all. None on the Brisket, potatoes or sauce. With a bit of seasoning, this would be really good. The food was hot and fresh.
