Hooker's Sweet Treats



There’s a new sweetshop in the neighborhood. It’s called Hooker’s Sweet Treats on Hyde, between Ellis and O'farrell. I’ve been looking forward to the day when there would be a place like this around here. My boyfriend and I stopped in one day, we had the bread pudding, which was absolutely warm-ooey-gooey-caramely-chocolatey deliciousness! They also sell caramels and salted chocolates and cookies, as well as French press coffee and espresso. It’s a quaint place, decorated in a homey way, with canning jars and old furniture and a huge bouquet of flowers in the window. We started talking to both of the nice gentlemen that were working there. They hadn’t been in the neighborhood very long, but I asked if they had any weird or interesting stories yet. They told us that one day shortly after opening they had actual hookers come in to express their delight with the name of the little shop!
