Do you know the state tree nut of Missouri? Well it’s the wild, rare black walnut and it’s the star of a new taste test at Benton Park’s The Bittersweet Bakery at 2200 Gravois Ave.

The company behind this delicious exam is local provider Hammons Products, and the pastry of choice is Bittersweet’s luscious chocolate-black walnut soufflé cookie, which joins the uniquely rich flavor of black walnuts with ooey, gooey chocolate.

Now, hungry St. Louisans looking to satisfy their sweet tooth can drop by the South City bakery, nibble down this yummy cookie and share how they rank the decadent cookie for a coupon for half off their next cookie craving.

Not enough to get your mouth watering? Those who participate in the taste test will also be entered to win a flip MinoHD video camera. All this for a little sugar rush? Sharing has never been so easy!
