Good news, sweet tooths: Jessie Pearl Hairston and her rich baked goods return to the Maplewood Farmers’ Market today. Look for her pound cakes, lemon bars, zebra cake (cream cheese center with cake batter on top and bottom), sweet potato pies (“mini Pearls,” she calls them), and much more on the last Wednesday of each month. Hairston had to take a few years off from baking because of illness, but now, she said, “I feel better than a hot pig in cold poop.”

You people should try mama’s sweet treats @8400 natural bridge road if you want to taste a pound cake that is unique in taste and also very addictive . I believe that the owner Kelly used to sell her pound cakes in several of the Straub stores until it became a big hassle to get paid on time. The bakery # is 314-932-5567
