Holidays & Specials

Bennison's Bakery offers Pithivier (or Galette des Rois). Layers of puff pastry filled with almond frangipane (a sweet almond paste), glazed with sugar and topped with a crown. Each Pithivier is baked with a tiny baby trinket inside, and tradition states that whoever finds the baby in their slice is supposed to bring the Pithivier the next year.

Order a brightly decorated King Cake—a traditional pre-Lenten treat perfect for Mardi Gras and the Epiphany season. Bennison’s offers them plain or filled with cream cheese, apple, cherry, or praline pecan.

Bennison’s Bakery is celebrating Valentine’s Day with a delightful selection of holiday-themed sweets and treats available for pre-order or in-store pickup from February 1 through February 14.
