Three months ago we heralded the launch of
Sweet Bite Creamery, which melds homemade ice cream with home-baked cookies, all made from locally sourced or organic ingredients. Their pairings may be cold, but their ice cream sandwiches are hot, developing a local following throughout the DC area’s farmers markets.
Now that it’s fall, Sweet Bite will not hibernate anytime soon. In fact, they have come out with a line of fall flavors. Creamy pumpkin custard ice cream, made from sugar pumpkins purchased from other farmers’ market vendors, await you between chewy molasses cookies. Sweet potato marshmallow is a favorite, evoking sweet potato pie from the Old South; baked apple snicker doodles would go well with warm spiced cider, a hot-cold sensation anyone should enjoy. There is still time
order before Thanksgiving!
Sweet Bite is what food can be about: creative, local, enjoyable, and innovative. Best of all it’s dessert--how could you resist? Watch Tricia Widgen, one of the company’s founders, explain their approach
