The texture of the pudding is creamy and perfectly balanced. The flavor was rich and complex due to their light dusting of cinnamon on top. It was sweet but not overly so which made it the perfect dessert after dinner.

The portion size was generous, but I could have easily had more! Not only that, they serve you a warm scoop of vanilla ice cream as an accompaniment.

I've had my fair share of bread puddings from California to New York and everywhere in between, but Word of Mouth Bakery's has been my favorite so far.
