return to the press main page   a "Small Wonder - Little Flower Candy Company Cafe Opens" date: December 11, 2007 It's been said you don't know what you've got till it's gone. A lesson that really hit home during the Little Flower Candy Company's nine-month hiatus. Good thing Christine Moore's back. And now she has a perfectly simple bakery cafe to call her own. On top of churning out her famous caramels and flavored fluffy marshmallows, Moore, a pastry chef before busting out as a candymaker, bakes up a handful of fresh goodies every day. Look for croissants, muffins, scones, cookies, rustic tarts, and cakes like the Foley (a densely delicious gooey almond butter cake). Grab a table inside or out or take City Bean coffee to go. The plan is to grow the Pasadena space into a market full of her favorite things (The Santa Monica Farmers' Market Cookbook and Acapulco Tortilleria chips have already arrived). You've still got a lot to learn.
