Celebrate Victory with this southern classic. Mildly sweet, but all the more buttery and delicious. Tea Cakes are a southern tradition. They were first made by slaves in early America using any available resources. Offering sweet relief to slaves in the meekest of circumstances. Today, they stand as a symbol of victory and unity. These tea cakes feature sweet vanilla and lemon undertones and pair perfectly with a rich cup of coffee. But thank God! [Christ] has made us his captives and continues to lead us along in Christ’s triumphal procession. 2 Cor 2:14

Ideal for vegetarian diets, this bread is a delightful way to elevate any meal, although it contains milk and wheat.

Welcome to Taste &amp; See! I'm Amanda, proudly serving customers in the Alvarado area. Thanks for stopping by! My husband, Jonathan gave me a sourdough kit in 2023 for Mother's Day. The first bite reminded us of the passage in Psalm 34, "Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good." As we baked for friends and family, many were suggesting that we turn this new passion into a business, which we declined for a while, until a friend asked us to bake for her baby shower. Little did we know that a Mother's Day gift would turn into our first business, delighting the Alvarado family and beyond! We see our business as a way to glorify God, bless those around us, and be faithful with what He's blessed us with.
