Every state has its own official motto, flag and animal, but some states have a special official food or dessert. Here are just a few examples of special sweet treats that are beloved by the inhabitants of some of our individual states.
For instance, it probably wouldn't surprise you to learn that the State Pie of Florida is the Key lime pie. This tart, meringue-topped dessert is made using key limes, which are found throughout the famous Florida Keys. Floridians have been making this pie since the late 1800s, but was not officially named the state pie until 2006.
You will find more states with their respective official state pies too. Because Maine's official fruit is blueberry it is then given that their state pie is blueberry pie. As for their official state treat, they have the Whoopie Pie. The biggest of the Whoopie in fact is made in Maine with a recorded weight of a thousand pounds. Directing our attention to Massachusetts, you will know of the Boston cream pie being layers of cake separated by vanilla custard with chocolate glaze for topping and this is their official state pie. Their state cookie which they are proud of is the chocolate chip cookie.
Other states enjoy other sweet treats. In Minnesota, the blueberry muffin has been named as the state's official muffin. New Mexico's state cookie is a unique treat called the bizcochito and is flavored with cinnamon and anise. Utah doesn't have an official dessert, but named Jell-O as its state snack food. Missouri's official state dessert is the ice cream cone, which became quite popular after the St. Louis World Fair in 1904.
While California doesn't have an official food or dessert, there's no denying that the citizens of the Golden State love a delicious treat. If you love ice cream and other frosty treats and are near Los Angeles, consider taking a trip to the Culver City ice cream shop YoKuMon is an excellent idea. In addition to an assortment of ice cream, shakes, shave ice and sundaes, YoKuMon's specialty is the $2 gourmet ice cream sandwich.
These ice cream sandwiches are not the typical treats one finds in their grocer's freezer. YoKuMon's ice cream sandwiches are created by sandwiching a huge scoop of ice cream between two freshly baked cookies. The staff at this Culver City dessert spot bakes eight different varieties of cookies throughout the day and you can mix or match any flavor of cookie with any flavor of ice cream that you prefer.
