I got a slice of Lexington Bourbon Cake, which is a dense and golden pound cake topped with toasted pecan halves and pieces. It's a loaf-style cake.
The Troublemaker Pie combines a flaky butter crust with layers of chocolate, bourbon, pecans, and a hint of sea salt, creating a filling that is rich and smooth with crunchy pecans that provide texture and contrast to the crisp pastry shell.
I couldn't not try a savory bite, as well. Delish.
Located in downtown Warrenton, Red Truck Bakery combines a full-service bakery, café, and specialty market with a menu that spans breakfast, lunch, and desserts, with the cake by the slice and Troublemaker Pie highlighting two of its signature baked offerings.
