Even a virgin lighting the black flame candle can't resist our witchy brew of Lavender Lemon. No Halloween menu would be complete without a Hocus Pocus themed dessert! This is our homage to the Sanderson Sisters.   We are Christina Ricci STANS in this business.

Custom mini donuts for A Strange Loop, Tony Winner for Best Musical Bites are Back on Broadway! This time we're taking on the most recent winner of the Tony for Best Musical, A Strange Loop!
