The cookie selection at David Burke’s Dixie Lee Bakery was equally impressive. We tried their classic black and white cookie (they now ship nationwide) and oatmeal raisin cookie. Both varieties had a perfect texture – crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. Their chocolate chip cookies were loaded with gooey chocolate chips, while the oatmeal raisin cookies were generously spiced, making them a delight when paired with a strong cup of coffee.
They offer custom cakes (including wedding cakes) as well as an assortment of other desserts that piqued our curiosity. We couldn’t resist trying their cheesecake, and it did not disappoint. Creamy and luscious, with a buttery graham cracker crust, it was a true indulgence. Additionally, we also tried their fruit tarts, which were bursting with fresh fruit flavors and showcased a buttery, flaky crust. It was evident that the bakery’s commitment to using high-quality ingredients contributed to the superior taste of their desserts.
