Cute ice cream cone cake pop with a raspberry flavored chocolate cake inside and sprinkles on top.
Goodness Gracious ‘Divine Confections’, San Francisco
My friend George had a bday gathering and these were one of the sweet treats he offered. I guess his friend makes these super cute cake pops. There were different shapes and flavors, but I thought these were the cutest. I’ve never had a cake pop before, and I thought that the cake on the inside would be dry, but this was very moist (probably from the addition of the raspberry liqueur?). I’ve recently noticed the increased interest and demand for cake pops and I’m glad. They are adorable and easy to serve and eat. You can contact Goodness Gracious through her Facebook page if you want some of these delicious treats!

Corn soup – Bar Agricole
Large bowl of warm corn soup with aleppo pepper, creme fraiche, and chopped serpolette. $14
Bar Agricole, San Francisco
This soup was absolutely heavenly! The flavors were great and the texture was awesome. The corn was coarsely pureed so you could still feel pieces of kernel in your mouth. The garnishes looked great against the soft yellow color of the corn soup. I didn’t get much of a kick from the crushed and ground aleppo flakes and the serpolette was completely lost flavor-wise. It didn’t matter though, the soup was tasty enough to stand on its own. The portion was a generous one, which was great since everyone at the table wanted to taste it!
Serpolette (Thymus serphyllum), more commonly spelled “serpolet”, is a wild thyme. I learned something new, haha!
