The smell of sweet confections fills your nose as you enter the door of the old barn style building with its homey country style furnishings. People line up against the counter while employees ring up products at a quick pace. The line soon wraps around to the room demonstrating just how popular The Gingered Peach, a Lawrenceville bakery and coffee house, has become.
The Gingered Peach owners say they pride themselves on homestyle baking. Everything is made from scratch with fresh ingredients. The baked good selection includes cupcakes ($2), cookies ($1.85), scones($2.65), cinnamon buns ($2.95).
America’s favorite cookie to dip in milk is a star in the bakery’s Oreo flavored cupcakes. Fans of the cookie will love the surprise on the first bite as the cookie is baked into the center. If you’re not a huge chocolate or Oreo fan, this cupcake may feel a bit too heavy and overpowering.
Instead, the cinnamon buns are equal part gooey and flakey. The sweet glazing on the baked pastry makes for a delicious sweet treat.
During a recent visit, Lynn Johnson, a customer since their days as Let Them Eat Cake, sat in the dining area enjoying a peanut butter cookie with a cafe au lait. She said, “the peanut butter cookies are perfect. They’re not too sweet so I can enjoy eating more than one.”
If you’re looking for something to satisfy your sweet tooth, visit The Gingered Peach is a top bet. It’s located at 2 Gordon Avenue in Lawrenceville.
