    “My son loves bread pudding, so I wanted to have that as one of the desserts at his rehearsal dinner. I am not from this area, so it took a bit of research but I had seen someone post that Julie’s had a delicious bread pudding. I contacted Julie and she was so sweet and even offered to make a bread pudding for my son and I to try! We tasted it and, of course, it was delicious!! We placed our order and we were not disappointed!! I had several people tell me at the rehearsal dinner that it was the best bread pudding they had ever tasted!! My son loved it too! Thank you so much, Julie!!”
