IT'S ALMOST MARKET TIME AGAIN!

Tart Mama will be at the New Taste Market on Saturday July 16th from noon - 5pm. 

We will be going sweet, savory, and even something for the gluten free!

And a little summer inspiration...  This is my son on the beach at Bodega Bay this past weekend.

Busy baking...

Peach cookies - pre filling 

Almost done... 

S'mores!  My friends call them 'crack'.  You'll see why... 

My mom decided to go all out and make some Potica for Saturday.  This is a traditional Croatian walnut roll- we grew up on this!  My mom usually has to hide it from my dad and brothers after it is baked- as it will be devoured immediately. 
 

The 'Sweet Elvis' tart test batch came out great.  These will definitely be on the menu at New Taste on Saturday- along with the Traditional Strawberry and the new "El Churro".
