Your Wedding Day isn’t complete without the sweets! The fun part about sweets is that you add so much fun to your wedding day with a colorful and unique dessert table or punch up your style with colorful cakes or cupcakes. The options are endless…whether you want to be healthy and organic or a self-proclaimed sweet tooth junky, 2TartsBakery and Catering located in New Braunfels has you covered for your next event.
We asked April of 2Tarts a few fun questions all to do with sugary goodness...let's see what she answered.
Which sweet do you enjoy making the most?
"Every baker here at 2tarts brings their own style to what they do! Lola loves to make more rustic items like chox pastries or macaroons. Ashley & Amanda like to find and experiment with vegan, gluten free, and/or sugar free items. All of us love when our customers ask us for unusual flavors/designs! We really enjoy rising to a challenge!”
Do you have a most popular flavor?
"Here at the bakery people love our Strawberry Lime Cupcake. We take fresh strawberries and add them to our vanilla cake, then add lime zest and lime juice to our butter cream to create a cupcake that is sweet and refreshing. We also can not keep our Cheese Cake in stock! But, hands down our Lemon Bars are the most popular item here at 2tarts. The recipe comes from my sister's time at culinary school in Ireland. They are sweet, tart, and have a great texture! People can not get enough! "
Ok, so which is YOUR favorite?
"My personal fave is our chocolate cake with crunchy peanut butter-butter cream AND bacon! Sweet and salty all in one."
What's the most odd flavor sweet you have ever served?
"We LOVE to take traditional savory flavors and make them into dessert combos. For example we added yellow curry powder & shredded coconut to our vanilla cake, then layered the cake with a German chocolate filling (minus the chocolate) to create a crazy good Coconut Curry Cake. Also we make a fantastic Salty Sage Shortbread Cookie that is Amber's favorite!"
Which sweet is the most popular at the bakery?
"As much as it pains us to say this, cupcakes are VERY popular. For us, the cupcake trend has run its course. We are always brain storming new items to showcase here at the Bakery that are more exciting. For example, we have been working heard on 'healthier' items to offer to our fans like tarts made with agave vs. traditional sugar. We also try to stay on top of popular dessert trends. Can you say mini donuts?!”
So all in all it seems that there are no rules when it comes to your satisfying a major sweet tooth. With so many sweets and options to choose from, it's so easy to make it your own and let your choices reflect you and your style. Special thanks to April from 2Tarts Bakery & Catering for giving us a glimpse behind the batter!

ReplyDeleteIt seems that the idea on were sweet at 2 tarts is very creative. I think that those traditional tarts taste great. I really want to try making it at home by myself.
