There's a booth at the Nyack farmers' market called Mostly Myrtle's, but the owner isn't Myrtle.

Debbie Sadowsky is the owner, but her grandmother Myrtle left a lasting impression when it came to baking. Her cooking influenced one of Sadowsky's most popular specialties—the "Biskooky."

"It's a cookie baked Italian style, like a biscotti," Sadowsky explained. "Nobody else makes anything like it." It's true—the recipe is trademarked by Sadowsky.

Some Biskooky flavors include Australian Ginger, Almond Fantasy, Java the Nut and Belgian Chocolate Hazelnut. Gluten and dairy-free selections are also available, along with some sugar-free treats. The world's largest biskooky—about a foot long—is also for sale.

(And for those who want to share, Biskookys are also available in gift basket and party platters.)

Additionally, Mostly Myrtle's also makes multigrain and seed snackers, and brownies (aptly titled "wicked-good brownies") made with Belgian chocolate.

"People get a glow across their face when they eat these gluten-free brownies and realize they don't have to compromise on taste," Sadowsky explained, elaborating on their health value.

And if you ever imagined rivalries between farmers' market merchants, you couldn't be more off-base; the owner of Sprout Creek's booth came over to check out the brownies while I was chatting with Sadowsky.

"I buy these brownies for my son every week," he noted. "One day I decided to taste one and realized why he kept asking me to go back for more—they are amazing. He's lucky any make it back home."

Sadowsky formed Mostly Myrtle's in 2002 as a part-time business where she would cook in the off-hours at her local bagel store. As an occupational therapist, it was difficult to find time for her new found passion.

"[But] the company took on a life of its own," she explained. About three years ago, she gave up her day job and made her shop to full-time, based out of a small commercial bakery in Binghamton.

Soon after, the Australian Ginger Biskooky won the New York Guild of Chef's Pastry Competition in the cookie division.

Although Sadowsky does the baking herself, she has taken on one assistant to help alleviate the work. All her products are made from scratch, feature all-natural products and are preservative-free, she explained.

And at each market, a sign hanging from her table attracts many curious shoppers.

"Grass-fed free range cookies," it reads. What does that mean, people ask?

"The cookies are free to run around all day, but then they don't want to get back in their packages," Sadowsky jokes. "One time at a wine tasting event, some people—who surely had their share of tasting—actually believed me when I told them that the sugar cane was carefully picked from the vine just as it reached its peak ripening."

Mostly Myrtle's can be found at four farmers' markets, various street fairs and an upcoming Chocolate World Expo at the Westchester County Center in White Plains on Nov. 7.
