A special gift for your foodie mom on Mother's Day


What could be more perfect than treating your mom to a Spring Bonnet Cake from chef Thomas Keller's Bouchon Bakery? Surprise her at Mother's Day brunch with this individual sized dessert ($9) that comes in two yummy flavors: Lemon cake with fresh blueberry compote and almond streusel; and Vanilla Angel cake with fruits of the forest and almond streusel. It's the ideal gift because it's adorable, edible and affordable.

In addition, Bouchon Bakery has Cinnamon Twist Bread, house made briochette infused with cinnamon and streusel ($12.50). Mmmm, I can practically smell it from here. It's delicious simply on its own but can also be used to create a tasty twist on classic French toast for a lovely Mother's Day brunch at home.

For more info: Bouchon Bakery, Yountville. Open daily 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. 707.944.2253. Visit other well-known Thomas Keller eateries.
