sunflour baking company

i was poking around online trying to find a place to grab coffee with some friends, and i stumbled across something called sunflour baking company, which looked rather interesting.  i mean, who wouldn't want to get fresh baked goods?  so on this rather dreary sunday, i finally investigated the place.

i admit being impressed; i got a morning glory muffin and hot cocoa.  the muffin, as described by the menu, is "packed with carrots, pineapples, apples, coconut, raisins, and walnuts," and it seems to be the functional equivalent of hummingbird cake.  sans boiled sugar icing, of course.  i would definitely get it again.  the rest of the breakfast treats on display looked lovely, and i saw a corn and potato chowder on the menu, too.  next time, i may have to plan a visit around their baking schedule (so as to obtain bread fresh from the oven).

it was definitely worth a 20 minute drive from huntersville.  one would imagine that there would be some of a selection of independent coffee-type places in my neck of the woods, but this seems not to be the case.  so i may have to wander back down again in the future.
