Hello friends,
Pre-order is open for this week!
Weâve got Rhubarb danishes sticking around this week. In case you missed it these are made with a brown butter custard, rhubarb jam, poached rhubarb, and finished with a rhubarb and tarragon glaze and some eastern redbud flowers. The redbuds are on their way out though so I canât say for sure which little flowers your danish might have. It could be something else. This is probably the most complicated danish Iâve ever done, but it also might be my favorite. Top three at least.
Ramp and Raclette rolls are done for now. Thereâs a chance theyâll come back at some point but I donât want to get your hopes up.
No morning buns this week, but if youâre a morning bun enjoyer Donnât worry; theyâll be back in June (because flake is closed the final week of May).
Butter Club signups are open for June! Get your Flake fix guaranteed every Thursday of the month (6/4, 6/11, 6/18, & 6/25), and get early access to the weekâs seasonal special, and also fairly regular off-menu items that the public at large may never taste!
And lastly a reminder that Flake will be closed the last week of May (5/24-5/31) which means no Butter Club delivery as well.
Okay thanks see you on Saturday! đ«°đ„
Hello friends,
Pre-order is open for this week!
Apple danish is done until apples come back into season, which means weâve got a new seasonal special this week. Joining the menu today is our rhubarb danish. This features rhubarb from @high_ground_gardens , and is filled with brown butter custard and rhubarb jam, then topped with poached rhubarb, and finished with a rhubarb and tarragon nappage, and a sprinkling of Eastern Redbud blossoms. Probably the most complicated danish weâve done so far, but Iâm just so stoked to have things growing again I had to do something nice; not to mention rhubarb is perhaps my favorite vegetable masquerading as a fruit.
Ramp and Raclette rolls are back, and this may be their final week unless I can find time to harvest more ramps before they go to seed.
And lastly a notice/reminder that Flake will be closed the last week of May (5/24-5/31) which means no Butter Club delivery as well.
Okay thanks see you on Saturday! đ«°đ„

We have an exciting addition to the menu this week: Ramp and Raclette Rolls. These are spirals of soft dough filled with a compound butter flavored with ramps (mainly) as well as a little orange zest and grainy quince mustard. This layer of delicious butter is then covered in a layer of sliced raclette before the whole thing gets rolled up and baked. When they come out of the oven theyâre brushed with just the lightest coating of sorghum syrup and topped with chives and mustard flowers.
To whom it may concern: I personally harvest all of Flakeâs ramps from a thriving multi-acre patch on private property, so there is effectively zero risk of over-harvesting.
I thought I was out of apple filling, but turns out I had a little bit more, so weâve got apple danishes for one more week, then exciting new stuff with freshly harvested produce! Its true! Winter is over! Summer is nigh! Rejoice! Delight! It will never be cold or dark again!
Okay thanks see you on Saturday! đ«°đ„
