Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe (2150 N. Culpeper St., Arlington) has, for 38 years, supplied Arlingtonians with buttery dinner rolls, croissants and crusty bread, perfect for turkey and ham leftovers. Put together a box of holiday petit fours filled with orange butter cream; or a menagerie of marzipan pigs, frogs, fruits or penguins for your host’s dessert spread. And don’t forget to add German Christmas cookies like honey gingerbread Biberle, Pfeffernusse (gingerbread with black pepper and nuts) and Zimt Sterne (star-shaped cookies made with hazelnuts, marzipan and cinnamon and topped with meringue).
Thanks for the Invite. What Can I Bring?
