..or so the song goes. We certainly aren’t going to argue the point. Our talented Bakers and friendly Customer Service staff spend the entire month of December doing everything they can to help make that claim The TRUTH. The Christmas Holiday is all the excuse we need to reach deep into our bag of tricks for recipes that only see the light of day this time of year. We’ll get into the specifics a little bit farther below, but we wanted to take this opportunity to spread the good news about Bernice’s and Christmas
.
You Work Too Hard
Don’t ask us how we know, but we do. We know how it is: running around, trying to get everything done before zero hour. There’s always the last minute family and/or friend get together that you need to make something for, or that potluck at work that you almost forgot about. There are presents to get, a house and a tree to decorate, and on, and on. That’s where we come in. We are your Christmas Knights in Shining Armor, and we have five words to share with you that will change your Holiday Life.
LET. US. DO. THE. WORK.
Really, that’s why we’re here. We have delicious solutions to many of your Holiday problems, and all it takes is a short phone call to get the ball rolling. And trust us when we say that we don’t think your friends, coworkers, or family members are going to mind the kinds of solutions that we have in mind. Keep reading for the details…

FRUIT NUT: A longtime Bernice’s favorite: Select Dried Fruits (Figs, Dates, & Pineapple)
Fruitcake (that DOESN’T suck)- We at Bernice’s are just plain tired of the played out old “Horrible Fruitcake” jokes that everyone throws around at Christmas. We believe that the people either making, or laughing at these jokes have never tried OUR Fruitcake. We start with REAL dried Fruit: Raisins, Dates, Figs, Apricots, and Pineapple. We clip it into tiny pieces by hand, and soak it in Meyer’s Dark Rum for at least a month. Once the fruit is properly “seasoned”, it is mixed into our delicious, sweet, highly enriched Fruitcake batter and slowly baked to perfection. This is a Holiday Treat that is not to be missed! Every year we convert Fruitcake Naysayers into raving new fans of this sadly misunderstood pastry. We hope that you’ll give it a shot this Holiday Season.
Pies and Other Large Dessets- Please refer to the “Thanksgiving” and “Pies & Other Desserts” tabs for more information on these fabulous meal-enders. We have a staggeringly large variety, almost certainly something for everyone.
