Who likes Babka?
Edited on Sun Jul-27-03 09:30 PM by The Lone Liberal

Where does one purchase the best Babka? I found a place on-line. http://www.ebabka.com/bakerywebstore.html

Anyone ever purchased Babka on-line. Ah to be stranded in the wilderness where I must seek Babka over the net, what a shame, what a shame.

4. Coffee cake.
Essentially, it has the flavor and texture of coffee cake. Chocolate babka is popular.

5. how about finding Babkas in Philly or NYC...
where is the best place to buy one?

I just moved to Bucks Co which is 40 min to Philly and 1 hour to NYC. I can't find a good babka.... tried a Polish neighborhood... but that one didn't turn out good. Jewish bakeries???? I think Babka crosses boundaries.

7. Babka worth travelling for?
I've never had babka that good. In my opinion, babka is okay, but that's about it.
