The bakers at Bread Butler, 1500 Central Avenue in Colonie, have created something that not only tastes good but just might fool your holiday guests. Shop owner Andreas Mergner says they take their Carla dough and shape it like a turkey! The bakers sprinkle a bit of Italian herbs to add to the effect and bam! You have Turkey Bread!

Turkey Bread goes quickly so, if you'd like a loaf, I suggest that you don't wait too long. You can order a variety of breads from Mocha Loca to Rye and yes Turkey Bread right HERE.

The novelty of the Turkey Bread may be what gets you in the door at the Bread Butler but you will soon taste the reason this will become your year-round destination for breads. The menu changes week to week so be sure to check the upcoming schedule HERE.

Good Morning! Originally called "Christmas Morning", this treat was so popular the name was changed to "Good Morning" and available year-round. Filled with candied orange peels, cherries, dates, raisins, cardamom, and then topped with sunflower seeds and a touch of sugar.

Happy Holidays and seasons eating's!
