April 26 is National Pretzel Day. Put a twist on the classic at one of these Kansas City locations.
Take Me Out to the Ballgame
Root, root, root for the Royals this season as the 2015 World Series Champions return to Kauffman Stadium for opening day on April 3. The K is our favorite place to enjoy a pretzel while rooting for the boys in blue.
Pretzel Sando
Pretzel buns are a trend here to stay. The Mixx (multiple locations, MixingItUp.com) is known for their pretzel chicken sando, a grilled chicken sandwich with pepper-jack cheese, sweet onions, tomato, spinach and garlic aioli on delicious pretzel bread. This signature sandwich is a consistent top pick for locals.
Chocolate Dipped Pretzels
Laura Little’s (2100 W. 75th St., Prairie Village, 913.722.2226) is famous for delicious candy made from scratch in copper kettles with wooden paddles. Their made-from-scratch chocolate dipped pretzels are a sweet treat.
Cupcakes Topped with Pretzels
Smallcakes (several metro locations, SmallCakesCupcakery.com) is a sweet cupcake shop with a fun atmosphere. The cakes are moist, and the frosting is good—with a fun variety to suit the entire family. We love the caramel crunch, a chocolate cake with caramel frosting topped with sea salt and chocolate pretzels.
Salted Pretzel Ice Cream
Glace (4960 Main St., Kansas City, MO, & 4535 W. 119th St., Overland Park, GlaceIceCream.com) offers one-of-a-kind decadence showcased in a dozen flavors, including a popular salted pretzel ice cream. Glace uses only pure, fresh foods and natural ingredients to create their delicious flavors—no artificial flavorings. Locally owned and operated, this Christopher Elbow ice cream shop frequently invents new flavors just begging to be tried.
