“I recently received a gift box of your cookies from my friend’s Lisa & Stu.

Your cookies are AMAZING! I have eaten many rugelach (including my grandmothers) and macaroons in my life but yours are “WOW!!”, the best I have ever eaten. Your chocolate (brownie) cookie with nuts is delicious, delicious, delicious!

I actually picked every crumb from the tin because they are that good. Just felt compelled to give my compliments to the chef!!”

Erica's Rugelach & Baking Co.“My friend Wendy knew what was good to eat, always. A tough customer with a sharp wit & discerning palate, she would frequently call me up to rave about the juicy, specialty deli sandwich she was enjoying in the moment.

Here she is in bliss, enjoying an Erica’s rugelach at her baby shower. Sadly, my dear friend has passed on, but her spirit lives on. Sometimes I have a dream and we are laughing together, eating something wonderful & listening to great music.”
