Online store

We've just moved into our new space: a charming 1921 Esso filling station that we renovated as a bakery kitchen and store from where we're now making—and shipping—your favorite baked goods. Red Truck Bakery items, made by us right here by hand, make a tasty and unique gift. We're just three bakers concerned with quality over quantity, so occasionally limit production of some items. We can't control the weather nor FedEx and US Postal Service shipping schedules, so we're not responsible for any delays due to weather—please order early for prompt arrival.


IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT VALENTINE'S DAY ORDERS! We're digging out from nearly three feet of snow and hope to reopen early in the week, although we're still awaiting deliveries of ingredients. We'll strive to get out our double-chocolate moonshine cake and other goods in time for delivery by Saturday, February 13, but with another snow storm coming Tuesday, we can't guarantee that. We can't control shipping and delivery by the US Postal Service and other carriers so are unable to offer refunds for late deliveries on items baked and shipped especially for you. That said, our double-chocolate moonshine cake is worth the wait and stays fresh for over a week.


Order:

Garden & Gun Magazine, UrbanDaddy.com and ValetMag.com all love our moonshine cake and we think your sweetheart will too. Valentine orders must be placed by midnight Monday, February 8th (please see our note above about possible delivery delays). Our own double-chocolate ring cake, made with local Virginia "moonshine": Wasmund's Rye Spirit, double pot-stilled 124 proof from our friends in the next county at Copper Fox Distillery, Sperryville Virginia. This is an elegant, rich cake topped with a chocolate glaze. The booze in the cake is pronounced yet not too strong and has received raves from our customers. Send this unique gift to that special friend. We ship via USPS Priority Mail; for second day or overnight FedEx please call us. ~ $22.

Alma Hackney’s rum cake
Our hand's-down favorite (among our family AND our customers): Alma Hackney, my buddy Dwight’s church choir director, made a mean rum cake for her friends—she’d send Dwight’s dad into the store for the booze while she waited in the car. Alma’s gone now but left her recipe with us, and we promised not to change a thing. The New York Times and Garden & Gun Magazine love our rum cake! A little bit of rum inside a buttery yellow cake, with a rum glaze brushed all over—enough to soak through and still put a crackly finish on top. ~ $24.
Order:      Alma Hackney's rum cake

Sour cream coffee cake
This is our best-selling coffee cake. It's an eight-inch round rich sour cream cake with pecans and cinnamon streusel in the center and on top. Great with breakfast, brunch and with coffee, tea, or for a midnight-snack. A smart gift for sending across the country; it travels well, freezes well and stays moist for quite awhile. ~ $24.
Order:      Sour cream coffee cake

Harvest wheat bread with fruit
EAST COAST SHIPPING ONLY: This is the bread that put us on the map and, thanks to customer requests, we’re featuring it online for the eastern U.S. to try (we're shipping our bread only to eastern states; priority mail takes too long to the west coast and, although this bread stays fresh a good while, it's not well-served with a longer transit time). This is a hearty, soft bread full of all things good for you: wheat bran, multigrains, golden raisins, dried cranberries and walnuts, sweetened up with local honey. Great for breakfast toast and with chicken salad sandwiches—or just a big slice slathered with butter as a snack. We'll ship second-day, packaged three loaves to a box to keep the shipping costs down. This bread freezes extraordinarily well, so keep some on hand. ~ 3 loaves for $18
Order:      Harvest wheat bread with fruit ~ 3 loaves

Red Truck Bakery granola

Price includes 3 bags of granola to keep your shipping costs down. We can't control the weather nor FedEx and US Postal Service shipping schedules, so we're not responsible for any delays due to weather—please order early for prompt arrival. ~ 3 bags for $27

Red Truck all-natural coffee
Our Red Truck High-Octane coffee is our most popular roast—a robust, hearty (but not overly strong) blend, naturally grown without any chemicals or pesticides and made with only Rain Forest Alliance and Fair Trade bean. This special blend has been created just for us by Counter Culture Coffee in Durham, NC, and has a loyal following here at the Red Truck Bakery and now across the country. Price includes 3 bags of whole bean (or ground) coffee to keep your shipping costs down. We can't control the weather nor FedEx and US Postal Service shipping schedules, so we're not responsible for any delays due to weather—please order early for prompt arrival. ~ 3 bags for $36.
Order:      Hi-Octane Whole Bean - 3 bags      Ground - 3 bags      Decaffeinated - 3 bags

Havana fruitcake
We'll be offering our Havana Fruitcake again in mid-November 2010. Our tropical rum fruitcake, which I learned to make in Cuba, is a customer favorite and full of pineapple, macadamia nuts, pecans, raisins, coconut and spices, and soaked with dark rum. Even those who say they don't like fruitcake swoon over this one. ~ $22
Order:      Havana fruitcake (Currently out-of-stock)

Almond stollen
We'll be offering our Almond Stollen again in mid-November 2010. This is the classic European stollen, over 1 pound, and full of almonds and our own candied orange and lemon, wrapped around an almond marzipan center. This has a wildly-popular following (we keep hearing it's better than what can be found in Europe). We can't control the weather nor FedEx and US Postal Service shipping schedules, so we're not responsible for any delays due to weather—please order early for prompt arrival. ~ $22.
Order:      Almond stollen (Currently out-of-stock)

Red Truck Bakery quiche
The New York Times loves this tart, and so will you. This large 10" tart is made in the French tradition—a shallow custard with best-quality cheese, caramelized onions and cream. We make these to order and ship out on Mondays or Tuesdays for second-day delivery (we avoid shipping later in the week so that they're not sitting in a FedEx warehouse over a weekend). We can't control the weather nor FedEx and US Postal Service shipping schedules, so we're not responsible for any delays due to weather—please order early for prompt arrival. ~ $26.
Order:      Gruyere quiche with caramelized onions      Virginia ham, cheddar and apple quiche

Our seasonal pies
Our pies have a loyal following across the country. The sweet-potato pecan pie is two Southern treats in one, and the authentic mincemeat pie is full of apples, raisins, golden raisins and a little suet (imported from Britain to keep it authentic) and finished with a splash of brandy. ~ $26.
Order:      Sweet Potato and Pecan Pie      Authentic Mincemeat Pie
