Napa Bakery Makes Bon Appetit "Best Cakes" List
Congratulations to Alexis Baking Company on Third Street in downtown Napa: This popular bakery-café makes one of the "Best Cakes in America," according to BonAppetit.com. A slice of this, and you won't need coffee.
We're used to accolades in the Napa Valley: Seems our winemakers, chefs and foodie entrepreneurs are always winning prestigious awards and getting named to high-profile Top 10 lists.
But there's something extra-satisfying when the national foodie media shines the spotlight on a place many of us consider our neighborhood spot (and the source of those potato rolls served at some of our other favorite Napa Valley eateries).
So here's to Alexis Baking Company on Third Street in downtown Napa, which has just been named the maker of one of the "Best Cakes in America," as listed on BonAppetit.com.
