We picked a chocolate cake with chocolate icing, and it was outstanding in every way. Everyone at…read morethe table agreed it was delicious. What stood out most was the icing. Instead of the usual heavy, dense frosting, it had a soft yet still wonderfully creamy without being too heavy. I later learned they use a mousse-style icing which complemented the moist chocolate cake and the thin outer layers of chocolate beautifully. The flavor was also rich without being too sweet. Altogether, it was exceptional: balanced, flavorful, and clearly made with care. If you get the chance, their chocolate cake is absolutely worth trying.

Maybe it is because I'm not from Pittsburgh so I don't have the fond attachment to this place that…read moreeveryone here seems to have, but I just don't get the hype. There is a huge variety of options and they have seasonal specialties. They also have a cafe that servers sandwiches, coffees and other specialty drinks. I can't say I didn't enjoy the items I've gotten here, I just don't think that they are "the best around" or really any better than bakeries where I don't have to stand in long lines to get items. One example I'll give is the paczki. I love paczki and good ones can be hard to find. Theirs are huge and they have a wide variety of flavors. But honestly, I'd rather get smaller ones from a different local bakery where I feel I'm supporting small and they have more flavor than just "sweet". This place just feels so assembly line/factory to me.

It also sells other foods such as breakfast sandwiches, coffees, and dog cookies. My husband and I shopped in this bakery one time. An employee immediately and kindly greeted us. It was a late morning on a Saturday, and the display cases were mostly stocked with baked goods. Unfortunately, the display cases had no signs to indicate what the baked goods were, so I felt unsure of what some of them were. I recommend that the bakery add signs with the names of the baked goods. I chose a cookie (5 stars) and a bear claw (4.5 stars). The total price was a few dollars including a tip. I have no idea what exact flavors they were! Perhaps I should have asked the employee. But they tasted great! If you want to eat here, some indoor tables and chairs were available.

Pros and cons Pros-…read morehave been there about 3-4 times. And it's some of the best vegan sweets I've ever had, especially the cream icing/filling. Cons- it's a little far out of the way for me to travel to go weekly. And the interaction with the staff has always been awkward, not sure what to make of that. Summary- even with my listed cons above, it's worth the trip out of Pittsburgh or anywhere to enjoy a really good sweet treat.

The store has three cases inside filled with cookies, decorated waffles, cupcakes, cakes, donuts and a few other things. Two ladies were inside and the one greeted me asking if I was looking for anything in particular. After looking in the cases and asking what the first two cupcakes were, I decided I could get one chocolate with delicious chocolate icing and one peanut butter chocolate. When in doubt- choose the cupcakes! Both were very delicious and slightly different. The peanut butter icing was EPIC. Such a sweet, nutty flavor but not overkill sweetness. The cupcake was tasty but not as moist as I expected. It had a delicious chocolate icing filling in it which made a fun surprise when cutting inside. The chocolate cupcake with chocolate icing was more moist (perfect moisture actually) and the icing on top was fun with the chocolate shavings! I think I loved the peanut butter icing most with the moisture of the chocolate cupcake from the chocolate icing one. I'd love to note that the lady asked me if I had been before and I told her no, it was my first time. She told me these cupcakes are on her - which I couldn't believe and SO appreciated this sweet gesture. Overall, I'd be interested in getting their items again. I also plan to ask what the staple is next time I go, as I feel like all places have one thing they are dying to rave about. This seems like a small business worth supporting!

A Gem Outside of Pittsburgh!…read more Just a short note of gratitude for Andrea and her team at Flour & Sugar Cakery in Seven Fields. I was so grateful to have discovered this amazing custom cakery just outside of Pittsburgh. My daughter had just begun her freshman year at Pitt and was celebrating her 19th birthday away from us and our home in NY for the first time. She had a vision for her cake, and I was so fortunate to find this gem of a bakery and its outstanding staff. Andrea and her team understood my daughter's vision for the cake inside and out and really hit it out of the park. It was exactly what she had envisioned and the attention to detail was amazing. While I didn't get to taste it myself, I heard from the many who did! The custom cookies-and-cream filling with yellow cake and fudge layering was described as "the best cake they ever tasted." I think that says it all! Well done, guys, and thank you for helping make my daughter's birthday away from home that much more special. I truly appreciated all the care and attention to detail. Highly recommend!

They're closed on Sat/Sun so we went that Friday. The shop is quaint but cute. It's takeout only. We arrived at 11:50am. They cut off breakfast ordering around noon. So we got there in the nick of time. And a line of people came in after we did but they still honored their orders. We ordered the Speecy Spicy on a croissant. I got mine without greens. The desserts looked so good I also bought an enormous chocolate chip cookie and my friend got the Nutella cookie stuffed with raspberry. Our order was made pretty quickly. I opted to eat in the car because it smelled delicious and I couldn't wait til we got back. Opening the wrapper was like opening Christmas presents...the anticipation and excitement were at a 10. First bite, I melted. It was everything I needed. The croissant was buttery, flaky and soft. The folded egg was fluffy and the way the cheese melted in between the layers was heaven sent. The bam bam sauce took it up a notch but the bacon stole the show. I've never in my life had bacon that tasted that good. It's such a satisfying and filling sandwich that I only ate half and decided to save the rest for the next day which I might add was still tasty. Air fry it for 7-10 mins and then microwave for an additional 2 mins and it tasted like I just got it. I was in town for 5 days and had it my 2nd day and my 5th day as well. I was lucky that they decided to make breakfast on a Monday and I flew out that afternoon so we made a stop to get me 1 more for the road. This time I left the greens (spinach) on the sandwich and I still loved it. I will def come back to Pittsburg just for this breakfast and the desserts. Or maybe they can franchise to Atlanta Almost forgot I also got a dill chicken salad wrap togo. The chicken salad is tasty and I love the pickles in it.

The total price was $10 plus tax and tip. We really liked the flavors of these two foods. I encourage other people to stop by and support this small, local business.

Other products include gummies and Philadelphia Water Ice, which I believe is Italian ice. As soon as my husband and I entered the store, an employee kindly greeted us. He told us about his products, and he offered free samples of his fudges. I bought two products, and here are my reviews for them: Chocolate-caramel-pecan turtles - 4.5 stars - Four turtles weighed 1/4 pound and cost $8. I would prefer more chocolate and caramel and fewer pecans, but I thought that these turtles tasted good. Bourbon Cherry Chocolate fudge - 4.5 stars - This fudge cost $5 for 1/4 pound. I enjoyed the sweet flavors. I saw many other chocolates and other sweets that looked delicious, but I try to have a generally healthy diet, so I will wait to buy more sweets here until I am in the neighborhood again.

I was walking through the streets of Oakmont when I stumbled upon this little sweet shop. The man…read moreinside of the shop informed me about all of the different flavors of fudge and other sweet treats which were being sold. You also have the option to try out some samples before you buy. Although all the truffles and chocolates looked delicious, today, I decided to just try the penuche fudge, peanut butter chocolate fudge, and the chocolate covered popcorn. The penuche fudge was delicious, but also quite sweet (on the verge of being too sweet). When describing what the fudge tastes like, the shop owner said it is similar to a Werther's caramel. I agree; there is definitely a caramely taste. I tried a sample of the plain milk chocolate which was absolutely amazing. The triple chocolate fudge is also great and consists of white, dark, and milk chocolate. The next fudge I got was the peanut butter chocolate fudge. It is made with Belgian milk chocolate (all the chocolate they use is Belgian). The chocolate flavor is perfectly sweet. The peanut butter flavor is strong and creamy. The texture is on point in both of the fudges. And, the price is quite reasonable with a 1/4 pound costing $5. Finally, the chocolate covered popcorn was also great. A whole bag is just $3! The chocolate is by far the best part of this sweet treat. I believe it is the same high quality milk chocolate they use in their fudge. The popcorn itself was okay, but it was too buttery in my opinion. All in all, I will definitely return to the Boulevard Sweet Shoppe. The service is friendly, there is a great sweet selection, and the flavors are quite good. When it comes to Oakmont sweets: get your baked goods at the Oakmont Bakery, and stop by the Boulevard Sweet Shoppe for candies, fudge, bark, and other sweets.
