March is for Peanut Lovers

Posted by Priory Fine Pastries On February - 22 - 2010

All through March we are celebrating National Peanut month with peanut-packed pastries you won’t be able to resist, starting with our Northsider Cake.  This cake is made of yellow batter smeared with peanut butter icing, iced in buttercream with five peanut butter dollops on top and covered in chocolate ganâche and Clark Bar crumbles.

For something a little smaller, but just as delicious, take home some of our new Everything Peanut cookies made from peanut dough and packed with peanuts, peanuts and more peanuts!
