Let’s be real, the holidays are a hectic, busy time for everyone. Maybe this year we let the pros handle all the desserts. Every holiday season, NEPA’s bakeries churn out thousands of adorable Christmas cookies, scrumptious pies and cupcakes, paczkis, kolache, pfeffernusse and poppy rolls. And that list only scratches the surface. Of course, we also need chocolates in our holiday spread. NEPA’s chocolatiers create tons of decadent, festive sweets to fill that chocolate craving.

If you’re looking for something specific, there’s a shop out there that can make it. Just make sure to plan ahead. Because if you show up on December 24th looking for a last-minute cookie tray, you’ll likely end up with a fruitcake.
