Jefferson Market & Cakery

"Red velvet cake seems to be enjoying a resurgence around the country. The Jefferson Market's version is unusual because the icing is more delicate than most and the cake itself is more buttery-rich than sugar-sweet."
Michael Stern






"Jefferson Market coats the devil's food cookie with another layer of chocolate. This is an excellent whoopie pie! "
Cliff Strutz



"This is the sort of brownie that demands lots of coffee and/or milk to drink as you eat it. It is thick and cakey, packing maximum chocolate punch per cubic inch."
Michael Stern



"Condensed and intense, chocolate caramel shortbread is a pastry that should be eaten in tiny bites. Each layer is a knock-out, the chocolate at the bottom as concentrated as a candy bar."
Michael Stern



"Jefferson Market's pecan pie bar is like a pecan pie without the crust."
Michael Stern



"You cannot eat the forks, but you can rest assured that you are minimizing the destruction you do to mother nature with every bite of cake you eat."
Michael Stern



"The Jefferson Market has been a neighborhood grocery since the 1920s. The new enterprise maintains its folksy charm."
