There’s a NEW witch in town… and she brought brownies. Welcome Fat Witch Bakery to Taste NY! These treats have us completely under their spell:

Baby Witches (mini brownies): Apple Cinnamon and Almond. Small enough to justify trying both. We don’t make the rules.

Fat Witches (bigger brownies): Regular Rich Chocolate and a gluten-free version that is FABULOUS! Seriously—gluten-free friends, this one deserves your attention.

Fly into Taste NY and pick your witch. Broom parking is limited.

Labor Day weekend 🤝 Football season
Your fridge has back-to-back hosting duties.

Stock up at Taste NY on Community Beer Works Let’s Go Pils for the holiday weekend—and the start of football season the following week!

Grab your cookout supplies, locate your lucky jersey, and practice yelling “LET’S GO!” at a socially questionable volume. It’s almost game time.

Your Labor Day weekend is about to get a little peachier!

We’ve got Robinson Farm yellow peaches from Lockport, NY at Taste NY! Slice them for your picnic, bake them into a cobbler, or eat one over the sink like nature intended.

Bringing fruit to the cookout? Responsible. Turning it into dessert? Also responsible.
