Saturday Sweets: Desserts Mom Deserves on Mother's Day

Moms have a tough job and should be a little spoiled every once in a while. With Mother’s Day right around the corner, it’s the perfect opportunity to sweeten things up and take mom out for the dessert she deserves.

Here are four spots with something sweet that are bound to keep you in mom’s good graces:

Toro Toro

What you’re ordering:

La Bomba - it’s a chocolate sphere filled with fresh berries + dulce de leche & strawberry ice cream + cream cheese mousse + almond cookie crumbs + caramel + vanilla & berry sauce. And if that’s not enough fun — a plastic sheet is placed on the table and as the dessert is brought out it’s dropped onto the sheet causing the sphere to break revealing a delicious mess of goodness.

Custom mini donuts. These little cuties will cause instant smiles from mom. Make sure to place your order ahead of time. Otherwise, opt for an order (or two) of the Hot & Fresh donuts coated in different sugars with dipping sauces like dulce de leche or guava rum.
