Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate,
The first one said,
"Oh my, it's getting late."
The second one said,
"But we don't care."
The third one said,
"I see witches in the air."
The fourth one said,
"Let's run, and run, and run."
The fifth one said,
"Get ready for some fun."
Then whoosh went the wind,
and out went the lights,
And five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!

Ooey, Gooey, Melted Cheese Toasted to Golden Perfection...Panini Time!

Our Panini Sandwiches are back for the Fall & Winter...



You know we sometimes need a little something savory to balance with our sweets and what better way to do that than with some yummy melted cheese!

Join us for lunch anytime between 11:00am & 2:00pm,
here is a sample of our current menu:


North Beach
Prosciutto & Provolone Cheese with a smear of our favorite Fig Jam on Francese Roll

Veggie Kid
Goat Cheese, Sun Dried Tomatoes & Pesto Sauce on Francese Roll

The Cheesy Pig
Ham & Swiss with a touch of Honey Mustard on Francese Roll


And last but not least, the grilled cheese. We decided to give this one a new name since the grilled cheese originated in the 1920's during the Great Depression with just one piece of bread & cheese served open-faced. During the 1960's the top piece of bread was added and still today it is a standard yummy, cheesy comfort food. Now that is some cheese for you!


The Classic 1920
Cheddar Cheese on Country Style Wheat

See you at the Sweet Shop for Lunch!

All sandwiches served daily based on availability.

Oh My, Snakes & Butterflies at the Sweet Shop!

So we really don't have any real snakes, no worries...butterflies yes!
What we do have is a delightful new chocolate line that we absolutely adore
Snake & Butterfly Chocolates made in Campbell, Ca.
Here is a just sample of our favorites: Smoked Almond Bar, Dark Chocolate Bar Ghana, Chocolate & Mission Fig Caramels, Maple Bacon Chocolate Caramels, Honey Chocolate Caramels, Chocolate Marshmallows just to name a few. Mouth watering and delicious!
They are all so good, it makes it so hard to decide which one!
We also have one of their RAW Chocolates, "raw" chocolate is not processed or heated and contains more anti-oxidants from the Cacao plants (this is healthier), aka "live chocolate". Most of the chocolates are vegan and gluten free too!
We welcome our new local product to the Sweet Shop, be sure to get some Snake & Butterfly on your next visit!
