Our road home from Austin took us right past the actual bakery in Corsicana, so how could we pass it by? We couldn't. Inside the allegedly world-famous place is a drool-inducing array of confections, pralines, muffins, breads, pies, cakes and so on.
I actually wanted to get doughnuts, but they didn't have any! I thought about it and didn't ask anyone about it, instead coming to my own conclusion that a doughnut is technically a FRIED item, so I guess a bakery can get away with not offering them for sale or consumption. A lowly doughnut seems beneath this place, anyway. At least that's what the prices would seem to indicate. I bought a pecan-cinnamon cake. I'm looking forward to discovering for myself whether it's worth getting on the mailing list.Sphere: Related Content

Daddy D - It's interesting the difference in how one looks at this establishment. Recently, my wife and I drove through Corsicana and saw this same bakery. We both said, "So THAT's one of those places that probably makes all those brick-like fruitcakes people give during the holidays!". We chuckled at the thought that this bakery might be cranking out fruitcakes 365 days/year and stockpiling them for holiday shipments! OK, so I have a vivid imagination, but I'll wager that I'm not the only one who thought the same thing! Keep up the good work - we enjoy your Blog! :)
Um, Doug...(whispering now) That's exactly what it is.
Oh, but so much more. There's fresh stuff there daily, and the place is really nice.
