Cranbury Delights: Baked goods with Old World flavor

Steve and Agnes Toth’s Cranbury Delights sells Hungarian pastries plus all-American treats such as chocolates and homemade ice cream.Cranberry Town, as it was known during the Revolutionary War, was a popular resting place for soldiers marching between the Northern and Southern colonies.
Gen. George Washington and his troops made camp in Cranbury (there seems to be some dispute on when and how the name change took place) in June 1778. He met with the Marquis de Lafayette and Col. Alexander Hamilton in a local doctor’s house to plan the Battle of Monmouth, which was to become a turning point of the war.
Cranbury, now 312 years old, is one of the oldest towns in New Jersey. Today the entire downtown area is designated a historic district on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places and the National Register of Historic Places. The shops and homes are so old and well cared for, it still looks as though colonists could emerge from behind the doors at any moment. There is quite a small-town charm, and people I met had refreshingly sincere smiles for strangers; you find yourself slowing down immediately, strolling rather than striding down the streets.

| Anyone know where Cranbury Delights plans to relocate to? Somewhere else in town? Budapest? |

| The word on the street is they are moving to Princeton but I don't know how accurate that is. |
