A Gingery Time for a Good Cause

Satisfy your gingerbread craving while doing a good deed, too.

You can if you purchase a bag of star-shaped, iced gingerbread cookies for $10 from participating Lark Creek Restaurant Group establishments throughout November. All proceeds will go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, which makes wishes come true for children with severe illnesses.

The cookies, available on the dessert menu, were designed by One Market Pastry Chef Patti Dellamonica-Bauler. Glam them up with frosting, sprinkles and candies to enjoy at the restaurant or take them home with you in a decorative box.

Since 2007, the Lark Creek Restaurant Group has raised nearly $50,000 through its annual “Gingerbread Wishes” program.

Participating restaurants include: One Market Restaurant in San Francisco; LarkCreekSteak in San Francisco; the Tavern at Lark Creek in Larkspur; Fish Story in Napa; Lark Creek Walnut Creek; and Yankee Pier in Larkspur, Lafayette, and at Santana Row in San Jose.

    Yum, I’ve never made gingerbread cookies, but these look so rick and dark I would probably take a leap of faith and try these.
