Shari's Berries
For a girl without a tremendous sweet tooth, sometimes still, the right sweet treat comes along at just the right time…
Shari’s Berries began operating in 1989 as a retail and local delivery business in the Sacramento area. It was born from “the simple desire to create the world’s greatest gourmet dipped strawberries.” Using only the finest ingredients and most succulent berries available, Shari’s quickly earned a reputation that’s grown nationwide.
Once you’ve had one of these luscious treats, you’ll know what all the drooling fuss is about. But when you go to order them for a loved one, party or business associate and perhaps find the prices surprisingly ‘reasonable’, be forewarned that the guaranteed yummy, safe and timely delivery might be what amounts to the prettiest penny of all. After all, they are perishable, and you’ll want these babies in tip-top shape! Because in this case, you do get what you pay for. (Know any football fans?!)
I’d also like to acknowledge DoubleTree’s cookies, because somehow, they’re there when you need ‘em. Like today, for instance… (Thanks, Betsy!).
With the simplest of ingredients – chocolate chips, flour, walnuts, butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, rolled oats, lemon juice concentrate, vanilla extract, baking soda, salt and cinnamon – these cookies evoke one simple outcome: Bliss.
(Might even be worth getting a room for the complimentary cookie alone).
Of course, when it comes to sweet things in Sacramento, this is just the tip of the snow cone…
There is something special about Sacramento; the rich land upon which she was built, the rivers that flow through her, the bounty around her and the people who make it their home.
Life is good in California’s Capital City for many reasons, including climate and geography, community and amenities, nature and wildlife, and more. It’s hard to imagine a warmer feeling than a sunshine-drenched morning here, an easier feeling than a refreshing spring day, or a more engaging experience than a night on the town after a cleansing rain.
There’s truly something for everyone and every mood, for Sacramento is a shifting entity itself, with four distinct but relatively mild seasons, diverse neighborhoods and people, a ripening food and restaurant scene, year-round events and outdoor fun, and daytime and nighttime adventures. Its magic is a blend of history and tradition, vision and reinvention. And there’s so much pleasure to be had here – with family and friends, food and wine, adventures and experiences – that they’re likely to create the kind of fond memories that might seem so familiar… but aren’t quite like any other.
