This Farm Stand Has The Best Strawberry Shortcake In Oregon

Oregon’s picture-perfect produce is one of the best parts about the spring and summer, with these seasons boasting a ROYGBIV abundance of farm-fresh delicacies. While marionberries are all the rage here in the Beaver State, strawberries are summer’s unofficial mascot, and we devour these beautiful berries by the bushelful. In Salem, Oregon, E.Z. Orchards Shortcake Stand is a seasonal spot that sells what is, in our humble opinion, the best strawberry shortcake in the world.

There’s a saying that something is “as American as apple pie,” but we beg to differ. We happen to think the most quintessentially American dessert is strawberry shortcake. With beautiful red berries and fluffy white cake, it’s downright patriotic!

And while all the berries from this fertile farming region are delicious, there’s just something extra special about the strawberries…

…and, by extension, the strawberry shortcake. The cake is light yet sturdy enough to accommodate a mountain of fresh, succulent, naturally sweet strawberries, that, when topped with a cloud of whipped cream, becomes something much greater than the sum of its parts.

Feeling peachy? This seasonal stone fruit also makes an appearance in the menu at E.Z. Orchards Shortcake Stand, and we daresay it’s as good as its strawberry sibling…
