The other day I had the pleasure of tasting some delicious treats at the Taconite Brew & Bakery in Aurora, MN. Taconite Brew & Bakery opened in September of 2007, and has grown to be a popular stop for a home-style lunch or espresso and a sweet treat!

Specialties include Finnish Rye bread, Sourdough bread-made from scratch-and their famous Paradise cookies-a special recipe made with craisins, raisins, and raisin bran cereal. Cheryl first tried a similar cookie at Paradise Bakery in Florida and then came up with her own version. Traditional rolls, danish cake donuts (an original recipe) and filled donuts are baked fresh daily. Every day offers a new variety of temptations. Saturdays are Pie Making days-fresh fruit pies-blueberry, apple and traditional pumpkin, pecan and lemon meringue.
