Valentine's Day at Bredenbeck's Bakery

Happy Valentine's Day!  Today I wanted to share with you my favorite bakery in Philadelphia.  Bredenbeck's Bakery is located in Chestnut Hill and has been a Philadelphia tradition since 1889.  They sell many delicious and mouthwatering treats in their bakery and ice cream shop, but today I want to focus on their Valentine's Day goodies.

It is impossible to walk into Bredenbeck's and not be captivated by the sweet scent of sugar and all the cakes, pastries, cookies and pies.  At Valentine's Day this is especially true.  How could you resist the adorable ladybug cake?

Do not forget the intricately decorated heart cut-out cookies and the heart shaped butter cookies encrusted with red and pink sugar crystals.  The butter cookies are some of the best I ever had anywhere.  Pastel petit fours are another yummy addition to the line-up.

The cupcakes are quite delicious as well and they are decked out for Valentine's Day with white, pink and read sprinkles accentuated with candy hearts.  This is just a sampling of the Valentine's Day treats at Bredenbeck's Bakery in Chestnut Hill.  Get there soon to try it for yourself and share with your loved ones.    You will thank me!
