To celebrate its move to a new space on Delaware Ave in Albany, All Good Bakers is teaming with Bake For You on a contest to create a DelSo cookie (as you know, DelSo = Delaware South). They're taking suggestions on Facebook. The winning idea will be sold in the bakery -- and the person who suggested it will get a free batch of cookies.
Hi there. Comments have been closed for this item. Still have something to say? Contact us.
For a decade All Over Albany was a place for interested and interesting people in New York's Capital Region. It was kind of like having a smart, savvy friend who could help you find out what's up. AOA stopped publishing at the end of 2018.
When we started AOA a decade ago we had no idea what was going to happen. And it turned out better than we could have... (more)

Working on AOA over the past decade has been a life-changing experience for me and it's shaped the way I think about so many things.... (more)
If winter ever gets its act together and drops more snow on us, there will be sidewalks to shovel. And shortly after that, Albany will... (more)

Actually it's a *DelSol* cookie (maybe because it works as a pun, Del Sol, the sun in Spanish, or to avoid getting sued by Silvia, for sure). I'll still eat it.

@-S: I'm pretty sure that's a typo. The email we got from Britin at AGB references a "DelSo" cookie:
**CONTEST ALERT**

A cookie that will symbolize all that is good and sweet in the Delaware area neighborhood! To enter, post your ideas for a cookie on either of our Facebook pages that will embody all that is "DelSo"!

A galleta del sol sounds pretty good, though.

Hmmm...I'll have to clarify this w/ Linda at Bake For You, she called it the DelSol too, but I figured that was a typo since the area is Delaware South. We would never want to step on Sylvia's toes!!! We figured she coined the term and it was for general public use for the area?? It fits so well :) Our only intention is to celebrate the neighborhood! I'll perform some due diligence.

Okay, just talked to Silvia via FB and we're good w/ the DelSo name! Wish we had thought first to msg her, but she is delighted and will note the contest on her blog as well. Keep the ideas coming!
