These were the very first scones we offered at Holly B's and the only scones we baked during our first several years. We still love them! The scones emerge from the oven moist and buttery, and we like the nutty flavor the wheat bran adds. Substitute fresh strawberries or blueberries for the raisins, if you wish.

Angel Bars

I fear I becam quite addicted to these chewy 2-layer bars with tart lemon glaze when the bakery first opened. Heavenly.

Opal Flexer's Cocoa Cake

Opal Flexer lived across the street from us when we were growing up. Although elderly and suffering from a severe physical disability, she remained independent and positive, which I found very inspiring. When Opal's husband died suddenly, I baked bread once a week for her in her kitchen, inadvertently launching my career as a baker. Opal liked to make this comforting cake and her daughter, Sue Flexer, gave the recipe to me. Dear Opal, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and wonderful stories. I will always remember you with love.
