    Storefront
    Dorothy X.

    My brother and I stopped by just before closing! I've been wanting to try this place for a while and am kicking myself for not going sooner. The store is small but it has a great selection. Slices of cake, chocolates, baklavas, etc. I'm normally not big on baklava but wanted to try some. The man behind the counter suggested getting a variety, and packed us a half pound box of various flavors. I'm a baklava convert! I can't wait to go back to try more of what they have.

    A great little dessert shop that's a bit far from city center but so worth the drive. Its a cute little store front with about 2 seats inside so definitely more of a pick up and go type of place. The owner and staff are super kind and patient, especially if you're new and have no clue what to get or try. Desserts are bought by the pound but you can get samplers of various options as well. The knafeh is amazing and if you're going to just try one dessert, I'd highly recommend it!

    I came for the pistachio chocolate bar but I'm coming back for the Knafeh. They even included a sticker with reheating instructions. I opted for using the air fryer but will follow directions next time because I'm curious if it's the same. Not being familiar with some of the sweets on display, I was feeling indecisive but they were patient and were able to help me choose.

    I found this place during my search for the viral Dubai pistachio chocolate. It is a very small store but it is filled with tons of delicious-looking treats. When I arrived, all of the chocolate bars were sold out, as they usually are, but the employee went in the back and found a couple of bars just so I didn't leave empty-handed. While he was on the back, he offered a free sample of the most spectacular treat, something I can only describe as a fried ball of honey. You bite into a crunchy dough shell and get hit with a burst of sweet juices. The chocolate bar is also nothing like anything you'll find outside of a specialty store like this, I recommend trying it.

    Delicious!! Amazing service and great taste definitely recommend and they also have the viral Dubai chocolate bar!!

    Chocolate baklava

    Amazing desserts! My wife surprised me with baklava which normally I wouldn't get for myself, but the chocolate baklava was easily one of the best desserts I've ever had. It is flaky and just the right amount of sweet. The chocolate is rich and delicate. I guess I do love Baklava

    The pastries are delicious and authentic, if pricey. We had an amazing slice of pistachio cake and will be back for more.

    First time customer, and my last time. If you're wanting to buy overpriced, tiny, stale cupcakes,…read morethis is your spot! Don't waste your money! I needed some cupcakes for a gathering, and I saw the reviews so I thought I'd give them a try. I got up early to be there when they opened so I could have a good selection. I was pretty disappointed when I got there and there weren't that many options. I was also surprised at how small they were. The decorative topping is very simple. Then, when they said they were $4 a cupcake, I was even more surprised. If I hadn't made all the trouble to get here and if I didn't really need the cupcakes, I would have gone someplace else. I thought to myself, these better taste amazing. I bought a dozen cupcakes and made sure I got at least one of each flavor. Once I got home, I dug into one, just to see how they were. Once again, I'm disappointed. They don't even taste fresh. WTH?! Now I'm regretting serving the rest of them, because what if they aren't good as well? So disappointed. I got feedback from those at my event and the consensus is these aren't good. All of the cupcakes were dry, crumbled and fell apart when you tried to eat them. What makes matters worse, the owners don't care.

    Could be my favourite stop in the North Market. Not my doctor's. lol. My sister was excited to find…read morethis place. She has something going on where everything must be gluten free. Like the cupcakes she bought a dozen of and refused to share. Don't nothin' ever change? Italian creame and snickerdoodle were the rave of today. It all tastes great, too! I had the Blueberry crumble cupcake and wished I could have two. They have a lot of unique flavours but take caution some things are extremely sweet. Ask first. The young lady that waited on us was friendly and helpful. The crowd wasn't too bad, I suspect it was the crummy weather that kept all the Ohioans inside today.

The display of chocolates was completely mesmerizing and contained a wide variety of truffles and handmade candy bars. The shop owner was very friendly and also gave recommendations on what to try. I tried only two truffles because I was so full from all the foods I tried before: Lavender Hand Rolled Truffle: The truffle itself was very dense and rich with a strong presence of cocoa. Every bite melted in my mouth just like any good quality chocolate. What ruined this one was the lavender flavoring which was so overpowering that all I could taste was cocoa and lavender. Vietnamese Cinnamon Hand Rolled Truffle: I really enjoyed this one. The cinnamon and honey in the truffle paired perfectly with the strong cocoa flavor and the chocolate itself was very rich. If I was ever in the area again, I would probably come by to try their handmade candy bars and white chocolate items.

I went to the original location only to learn they have now moved to a larger location. So In traveled there. Drove by it. Lol. Turned around and was happy that they now how a dedicated parking lot. No more parking meters and walking! Yay!!! I swear... donuts from here dont taste like they are gluten free nor do they taste vegan. Which is why Im obsessed with them. So want g to share this with my friend, I immediately hopped into my car and drove 20 min to grab a box of these to being to her. Knowing she was going to be with three more of my friends I decided to get two big boxes of baked goods. Poptarts, scones croissants, cookies. All vegan, some gluten free. I didnt tell anyone they were vegan. They ate every crumb. That's when I told them about the vegan part. They were each amazed. When they were in town the next weekend they even messaged me to ask for more donuts! Im telling you, this is a hidden gem of columbus. Everything there is so good
