Those who prefer ordering their holiday baked goods rather than baking them might like to order them from The New Rick and Brian's Cafe and Bakery. It is a convenient way to serve a very professional holiday dessert without having to spend time mixing batter, rolling out dough, and peeking into a hot oven to make sure your crust is not getting too brown.
Rick and Brians has the standard selection of holiday pies; apple, cherry, and pumpkin, for $9.99 each. They also have lemon meringue, banana cream, coconut cream, chocolate cream, and pecan pies for $10.99 and key lime pie for $11.99.
Interestingly, they have a pignoli (pine nut) pie, which is something not often seen on menus in Long Beach. The pignoli pie is $16.99.
For cheesecake lovers, there is a plain cheesecake for $14.99 or an eggnog cheesecake for $17.99.
Rick and Brian's also has a 10-inch coconut or German chocolate cake for $9.99.
Peppermint chocolate brownies and eggnog pudding round out the list of holiday treats. You can get six brownies for $7.99 and four servings of the pudding for $6.99.
Rick and Brian's Jumbo Cinnamon Rolls are available at four for $8.99 and you can get oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip, or sugar cookies for $5.99 per dozen.
The best news is if you order and pay for your baked goods two weeks in advance, you will get a !0% discount. The last day to order holiday baked goods at all is December 20.
