A bunch of you have been asking for Clover desserts. But here’s the thing: you shouldn’t be eating dessert with lunch everyday.

Now a couple of times a week? That’s an entirely different story. So we’re developing a tradition at Clover of celebrating birthdays with cupcakes. We don’t announce them, and we give them away for free to customers while they last. So breakfast customers always have a bit of a leg up.

Thursday we made parsnip cupcakes. Think carrot cake with local parsnips. We topped these with maple cream cheese frosting.

Btw, Teasel is my sister. Tease, you’re awesome, happy birthday.
