Waking early on Friday with plans to be at Lockhart’s fabled Black’s Barbeque by opening it was a two part breakfast near my hotel in North Austin that started the day; highly praised Angel Donuts and Treats offering food for the road in the form of four fried pastries and two cake balls served by a smiling staff. Locally owned and serving ‘heavenly’ pastries from a small storefront it is with a focus on locally sourced ingredients that each item at Angel begins and with old world recipes gussied up by high quality ingredients and a robust cake starter each item shined – whole chunks of blueberries and apples studding their respective creations and a topping of Italian sea salt gracing the sweet old fashioned while tangy cream cheese balanced bold cocoa of the red velvet. With each donut crispy on the surface and supple within it was next that I moved on to a pair of thick cake balls and with each featuring a rich vanilla frosting shell it was in the subtle sweetness that both found success, the red velvet a thicker texture than that of the donut and ribboned with cream cheese while the carrot cake was rich, dense, and spicy – soft and unset like a pudding or Gajar Halwa and all the better for it.
