If you time the visit right, you’ll be greeted by a rich peach scent.

Or maybe it will be the hot cinnamon-apple aroma wafting toward the entrance when you push open the door at 6645 N. Peoria Ave.

The smell only gets stronger as you walk to the counter, where there’s a glass case of sweet potato pie, as well as a pineapple cream pie.

It’s known as the “Mystery Case” because the options are always random and constantly changing.

Cobbler Mom, which opened in January, is more than a random dessert store in this tiny township on the northern outskirts of Tulsa.

Cobbler Mom is one of only three restaurants in a 5-mile radius in Turley.

The other two are a Simple Simon’s to the south and a Daylight Donuts about a mile to the north.

There are neighborhoods and businesses along Peoria in each direction, so when owner Joyce Horton decided to open a storefront, she also increased her offerings to include a lunch menu.
