Buzzing Bee Baked Things is owned by Deborah and Marco. Deborah trained as a pastry chef thirteen years ago and met Marco; they decided to try to set up in London as they had travelled there and fell in love with it. They have visited the USA and New York City, which inspired them to try new flavours and to explore the different bakeries. They specialise in bread and cookies. The cookies can be shipped throughout the UK, and the bread is available in London.
With my order, I received a free batch of chocolate crinkle cookies. These tasted delicious with tea.
I ordered pecan snowball cookies and pistachio snowball cookies. I was less keen on the pistachio ones, but the pecan ones were the traditional ones that I was expecting. In America and other countries, they have different names, and they are traditional in America during December as a festive treat. I have heard them called Russian tea cakes, or Mexican wedding cake, or simply wedding cake cookies. These taste the best with tea. In America, they were a little bit sweeter in flavour.
I also ordered a snickerdoodle with white chocolate chips and pecan nuts. Snickerdoodles are my favourite flavour of cookie, though this was a blend and did not strike me as a snickerdoodle. I am less keen on white chocolate, but it was still tasty as a cookie.
I ordered a buttered salted carmel and peanut oak cookie, which was tasty, and the last cookie flavour that I ordered was the spiced pumpkin pie. The pumpkin pie cookie was my favourite as it encompassed the taste of pumpkin and pumpkin pie.
