4: The Sweet Tooth Fairy

No Comments

On our way home from the movie we remembered that The Sweet Tooth Fairy just opened a new shop in Draper. My daughter Danaca works at The Sweet Tooth Fairy shop in Provo, and it is one of our favorite spots to stop for a treat.

Because this one is new, and fun, we decided to add it to our 101 list of things to do in Utah.

A little bigger than the one in Provo, the Sweet Tooth Fairy shop in Draper has a few tables to sit at and a few more things to choose from. In particular, Lynne found an entire tray of gluten-free treats among the cookies, cakes and candies. We each picked out a favorite cupcake, and Lynne gave a gluten-free frosted cookie a try; Wow!

If you live in the gluten-free world you know that choices are limited, and when someone puts a so called ‘gluten-free’ treat in front of you it is time to prepare for the worst. It is a well-known fact that gluten-free treats are not treats at all, but rather just balls of sawdust decorated to look better than they taste.

I am thrilled to report that Lynne thought the gluten-free frosted cookie from The Sweet Tooth Fairy was the most wonderful treat she has had in over three years. For this fact alone I am a committed regular customer from now on! Not to mention, of course, the over-the-top delicious cupcakes and her own special creation called ‘Cakebites’. Peanut Butter is my favorite, but believe me; you can’t go wrong.

Our friend and confectionery entrepreneur Megan Faulkner (she literally is The Sweet Tooth Fairy) took time out from her back room labors to come out and say hello, and graciously joined us for a photo op. ThanksĀ  Megan; the place is awesome!
