These muffins are very close runners up to 1369 as the best in the world. A brave judgement given they're made by Kate's mother.
Fresh, warm, crunchy & squishy, with fruit from the market in Kingston. And loaded with a dozen summers of memories.
We've got the recipes, but I'm not sure how we'd mass produce them for the bakery project. Nice problem to experiment with, though.
1369 may have the best muffin, but Carberrys has the best overall baking. It's just round the corner, near Central Square in Cambridge, Mass.
We've got an ongoing, slow, project to figure out what sort of north american bakery would work in the UK. We just can't get the sort of things that we like near where we live. Carberrys is just about perfect. We took a quick detour from a reunion weekend in Boston to load up, and take some photos.
Try the chocolate chip or blueberry scones, but almost everything is good. I've never understood, however, what the connection with Iceland is. This is the only place I've ever seen a Snurder for sale.
This is it. A Lemon and Poppy Muffin from 1369, the coffee shop near Central Square in Cambridge Mass. Believe me, we have searched high and low. And nothing else comes close. And they're still making them ten years after we first started eating them.
Somehow having a rainy dashboard as a backdrop adds to the authenticity, and memories.
Magic.
