They also sell some non-food items, as well, such as t-shirts and sweatshirts. We bought a box of 6 little jars of Vermont-made jams and some maple syrup to bring home to CA, as well as a maple flavored "cremee" (Vermont's version of soft serve ice cream) to eat there and some maple fudge. The cremee was excellent and loaded with maple flavor and just as good as the one at Vermont Cookie Love in Ferrisburgh. My husband got the fudge, and he loved it. They also have many bakery items, but we actually didn't buy any of that. We were quite satisfied with the ice cream and fudge. The Apple Barn is worth the stop and has lots to offer. I'd definitely make my way back here if in the area again.

I have already indulged in a very fine and fat eclair, a well-filled cherry danish, and have yet to try the beautiful looking barguette I bought and a huge glorious looking piece of carrot cake. They also have assorted cookies, cannolis, and cupcakes. If the bread is at good as it looks, I will return with the 5th star. Molto gracie, Sorrento, We need you. Well, I tried the bread and it does need work - but it is still miles ahead of the supermarket variety. Perhaps it is due in part to not great water, not the proper oven- and it needs semolina flour. My husband liked the carrot cake, mainly because it was not overly sweet, but I found it lacking in spices. And Sorrento, please take lessons from Panera on sticky buns(or Pecan rolls). No, for now, I will stick with the delicious eclairs which must be eaten within an hour after purchase - if you like the choux crispy. Said eclairs will be the death of me - but at least I will die happy!

Luckily I went to her home micro-bakery at opening time and there was a good selection but I understand she does sell out. You can also pre-order on her website. It's obvious that Wendy June aka "Fern" puts a lot of love and care into what she bakes. Easy parking at the old train station parking lot across the street.

Everything is sweetened with maple sugar and locally sourced fresh cream, and it makes a massive difference in the taste. Seriously, these scones are next-level delicious, and the flavors are so creative and tasty. I had a Lemon Curd & Currant Moon Scone, a Speculoos Orange Spice Moon Scone, and a Maple Pecan Cinnamon Moon Scone. All of them were delectable, but the Maple Pecan Cinnamon was my favorite - I had a bite after we drove off headed back home, and I fully considered driving back and buying the rest of them. We come to Vermont a couple of times a year, so we don't live in the area, but I loved this micro-bakery so much, I signed up for emails - and I fully plan on making moonscones a pit stop during our next trip.

A pleasant cruise in the countryside and about 45 minutes later we arrived at this food cart in the driveway. There were only 1 couple ahead of us in line, and this gave us time to look over the menu board to see what they got. Chose about 8 or items and paid for it. People were nice and pleasant. Line started to build up behind us. All the donuts we had were great. Donuts were cold but it's cold outside. Tasted fresh. Filled donuts were filled all the way with tasty fillings. Overall flavors were on point. The one ham and cheese croissant was tasty once we warmed it up in the microwave at home. Really like the pistachios cream donut. Worth the trip. Probably can't do much of this though as I am sure donuts is not good for the diet but donuts do make me happy.

Some items are extremely expensive for what you get, but there are reasonable options. The house-made hummus and curried chickpeas are good values. Breads vary widely.

While it's very nicely arranged inside, I wouldn't go out of my way to stop in. They did sell some refrigerated items like cheeses and pasta. I'd hoped to see more local items. One half of the shop seems to be the bakery area. There were baked goods like croissants and macarons that were uncovered in that area of the store. This didn't make me want to try anything. My mom got a cookie last time she was in and wasn't impressed. The store actually had quite a few people shopping and only one employee who was running back and forth between the shop half and the bakery half of the store. This store has potential- I think if the quality of the baked goods improves, this could be somewhere I'd want to visit more often. If you're in the area checking out Small Song (a terrific store), it's worth stopping in here as well.
