ockside Restaurant at Coeur d’Alene Resort sells one of
the most infamous desserts in the area. It is called a “Gooey”.
The Gooeys come in various flavors with special seasonal cre-
ations, but they always include a ton of ice cream and they are
big enough for the whole family. I tried their huckleberry goo-
ey, which came with cake batter ice cream; chunks of brownies
and blondies; strawberry, hot fudge and huckleberry sauces;
huckleberry white chocolate bark; chopped nuts and a jumbo
chocolate-dipped strawberry on top. Let’s just say we waddled
out of there and will be hiking all around Coeur d’Alene to
work this treat off!

ach city has a bakery like this
that you look and look for, and once
you find it, you don’t want to tell
others because it seems like such a
hidden gem. I stumbled upon this
cute bakery as I was walking around
the Garland area. I mean…when I
see a pink striped bakery, I’m going
inside. They have a huge assortment
of sweets: cupcakes, cookies, cake
pops, gourmet desserts, cinnamon
rolls, etc. They make everything
fresh and put it right out in the dis-
play case. The birthday cake-pop was
SO moist and delicious. I will never
be able to understand how they get
the candy coating to look so perfect.
God bless the creator of cake balls.
Next time you are in the Garland
area, stop by Celebrations Bakery
and try one of their fresh baked
goods. They are worth the calories.
