Whether you are baking homemade gifts, building a gingerbread house, or heading to a cookie exchange, there is no doubt that baked goodies are in the spotlight this time of year.

We are pleased to offer customers some great values on baking essentials this week in our Weekly ad, so check them out as you make your shopping list and save some ‘dough’ on all of the ingredients you are looking for.

As a ‘crossover’ grocery store, we at Oliver’s pride ourselves on offering both conventional and natural options for just about any baking ingredients you might be seeking. We also carry many specialty and imported baking ingredients that are difficult to find, including candied fruits and other specialties in our Produce Department. And no matter what dietary requirements you might be addressing, we are pleased to offer a wide array of Gluten-Free, Vegan, and Vegetarian options. Watch for our lavender Gluten-Free tags throughout our store to quickly find those products on our shelves.

Gadgets and Inspiration

If you find yourself short on any needed kitchen tools this season, look no further than our Housewares department for replacements. We carry a wide assortment of high quality kitchen tools and gadgets, and can save you a trip to another store during the busy holiday season.

Looking for baking inspiration? For many, the baking list for the season is a collection of traditional family recipes repeated year after year, but if you’re looking to try something new, we have some delicious ideas in the Recipe section of our website.

How about adding Spiced Eggnog Cookies with Eggnog Glaze or a Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe to your list this year? We also have the classics a link away, so if you’re seeking Sugar Cookies, Shortbread Cookies with Royal Icing, or Classic Gingerbread Cookies, you have come to the right place. We’ve also got a Flourless Chocolate Cake recipe standing by, and for those who are really into traditional holiday fare, how about a Traditional English Fruitcake or a Gluten Free Fruitcake?  If you’re looking for a classic Apple Pie, Pecan Pie, or Pumpkin Pie, you have come to the right place! And for a Vegan showstopper of a cake, be sure to give Marghi’s Vegan Chocolate Cake  (pictured above) a try. It was developed by our own Bakery Coordinator, Marghi Sulas.

We are excited about holiday baking and all of the joy that it brings, both to the baker and to the recipient(s).

Happy holidays and happy baking from your friends at Oliver’s Market!
