I got their Orange Olive Oil cake from Sigona's. It was moist and dense with a slight grassy fruitiness from the olive oil, a hint of brandy, and then the citrus flavor from the orange. It was a great cake to have with some coffee or tea. It's flavorful yet subtle, very well balanced. I can't wait to try their apple cake next time!

That Orange Olive Oil cake is the bomb!! Sometimes I actually crave it. I discovered it at Sigona's Market in RWC. It is amazing!

Oh how I wish there was a brick and mortar to go to to get these delicious cookies!!! I was first introduced to these when I was at The Willows and my best friend with a severe sweet tooth who was in town asked the man at the register if there were any delicious cookies. He pointed behind us and said with a very straight face "the best cookies in the world". At first I thought he was being facetious but he doubled down and began describing the deliciousness... This man changed my life. The kitchen sink cookie is unreal. There was once a mint and chocolate one. I've loved them all.

Butterscotch pudding with chocolate almond brittle and freshly made whipped cream!

Come for butterscotch pudding with almond brittle, but stay for the salted caramel brownies. Then, do not forget to check out the other rotating desserts. Each one is better than the last!

I am the Office & Events manager for my company, and therefore in charge of all of our luncheons and catered events. For one of our larger celebrations, I thought it would be fun to do something other than our normal cupcakes - and turned to yelp for help. As soon as I read the descriptions of the items and saw the pictures and reviews I knew I had to get Butterscotch On The Go. Kathleen was a PLEASURE to work with. Not only did she make ordering and coordination easy, she was extremely friendly and personable. She came more than early and set up all of the items meticulously. Every single item was incredible. Yes...I tried everything. It is part of my job to make sure what I ordered is good right?? Right. We'll go with that. I did it for the company. Yes, that's it. Anyways I absolutely LOVED everything about this place and so did my team of 160 people. I heard nothing but rave reviews from all the employees. She definitely has my business!

Butterscotch On The Go was started by Kathleen Jensen several years ago and it began as a dessert food truck. Kathleen was a private chef for over a decade and decided to venture out on her own. She sold the food truck a few years ago so she could instead focus on catering, special events and wholesale goods. I was first introduced to this place a couple years ago when she had a permanent counter set-up in the Willows Market. When I saw that she was selling butterscotch pudding I was quite intrigued and knew I had to give it a try. The pudding here is clearly the star, it's the most popular item and her biggest seller but she offers a variety of other desserts as well. Some of those desserts are Orange Olive Oil Cake, Butterscotch Blondies, Brownies and Raspberry Cheesecake Brownies. The butterscotch pudding is so decadent, has just the right consistency (not thin and watery and not too thick), very creamy and has a nice and smooth butterscotch flavor. You can get the pudding plain but why would you do that when you can get it topped off with fresh made whipped cream and smoked almond brittle. These two toppings really take the pudding to whole different level of deliciousness. I have never had pudding quite like this and I could eat this almost everyday and I'm not a pudding person. The butterscotch blondies are to die for as well, being a fan of normal blondies I knew these would be tasty. The butterscotch frosting and morsels add that extra sweetness and yumminess. While Butterscotch On The Go is no longer a "permanent" fixture at the Willows Market you can find her "pop-up" dessert counter at the Willows Market Food Truck Night on most Monday evenings. It is definitely worth a try and you will be happy you came.

My boyfriend's personal shopper was RAVING about Butterscotch on the Go, and how the pudding is the best thing ever on this planet. We finally went to the Monday Night food truck when Butterscotch on the Go was there, and we each got a pudding to eat at home. It definitely lived up to the expectations!! It had this good texture, and was not too thick, or too thin. The home made whip cream mixed with bites of the pudding was the perfect combination. I recommend having the almond roca crumbles on the side because it takes away from the pudding. Or- if you like to mix it, I would chop/crumble the almond roca into smaller pieces. I was told to try the brownie as well - but have yet the chance to get it. I also recommend going by 7pm to the truck, otherwise the items WILL sell out! She is cash only, so be aware! Luckily, you can always get cash back at the market.

I thought I made good butterscotch pudding! Nevermind... Mine is awful compared to this place!

The butterscotch pudding is heaven in a plastic to go cup with almonds enrobed in chocolate atop fresh whipped cream. I was first introduced to this when they had their food truck roaming around. When I'm in the area, I try to stop into Willows Market to grab one... or two! I am also a fan of their chocolate pot de creme!

I appreciate that they are available for desserts every Monday at The Willow's Market Food Truck Night, and that they accept credit card. It was also a nice change of pace in desserts for me, a puddin'. However, I think the butterscotch pudding was just too simple and basic for me. It's just some butterscotch pudding with whipped cream and almond toffee on top. It was nice, but it didn't really excite my taste buds. I ate it because I had it. I think that the 3 elements involved(butterscotch, toffee & whipped cream), were all tasty enough, but they didn't combine to make it an even better experience. They were just thrown together. At the price, and the reviews, I was definitely expecting way more.

Make sure you have the Butterscotch pudding, whipped cream, and toffee all in one bite. This stuff is seriously deathly - will get you so fat and obese and you can't help yourself that you have more and more. It's so flippin good. I am picky about my toffee and the toffee in this cup of goodness really hits the spot with its crunch and level of sweetness. You can get this Mondays at the Willow Market when Food Trucks come to town. I saw other goodies but had to slap my wrists and walk away. Salted caramel brownie? Someone help me, please!

They occupy a small corner of the store, just to your left when you enter. From the other reviews, it seems there might be a food truck component as well. The Butterscotch Pudding is darn good if you have a sweet tooth. But I think it's packaged wrong. 1)like many other reviews pointed out, it's too large for such a rich dessert. I was getting sick trying to finish it towards the end and I have a major SWEET TOOTH! 2)at $4.50, this isn't something I'm going to get all the time with my $6 sandwich. Suggestion, half the size and sell it for $2.95 to $3.25. You'll make more margin and I would buy it a lot more without getting the nausea feeling just thinking about the overly large current portion. The lady who helped me was super nice too. This place would be 4-5 stars if the portions are just tweaked a little.

Great coffee and baked goods. Best of all, the butterscotch pudding is always available!

I tried this truck and the infamous butterscotch pudding topped with toffee almond brittle was practically the only thing I remember from that one time I ordered it. The sandwich was alright the first time I had it, I remember it being really messy to eat for some reason. The popular Chicken Pan Bagnat (Grilled chicken, herbed vinaigrette, fontina, roasted red pepper, cucumber, capers and arugula on a baguette). I sandwich is really a lot simpler than it seems to be on paper and would not stand out as a 5 star sandwich by itself. The balance between all the ingredients just seemed off and the chicken was not very flavorful either. To be clear, it's not the worst I've had. Back to the butterscotch pudding though! So damn rich, it was almost too much for me to muster up and finish during lunch hour. It's so damn delicious for like the first half of it. I think I ate like 2/3 of it from what I remember and threw the rest away. If you know me, I don't like eating things that are overly sweet. One of my co-workers totally agreed with me on the pudding though, which was re-assuring. By and large though, they have a good truck here. I believe they need more menu options besides the sandwiches and salads.
