    Came here for RI Food Fights and I chose their mocha cappuccino cupcake. The coffee flavor was strong and absolute perfection. I haven't tasted many desserts like this - the flavor was amazing and the cupcake was moist. The frosting was also incredible and had a nice, silky texture. I loved the little sticks as well. The owner was super friendly and proud of her products. I've never heard of this place before and I know now I'll be back.

    We used awesome sweets for our wedding day desserts. We went in knowing we didn't want to do something traditionally and sue helped guide us to figure out what direction we wanted to go in. We decided to go with a personal cake (which she designed exactly the way we wanted it to look) and said yes to every request we made regarding mini desserts such as whoopie pies, cookies and cupcakes. It was awesome and people loved it!!

    Best carrot cake ever. Easy ordering process. Amazing quality for the price. Sue is lovely and very professional. I WILL be ordering again very soon. Pics don't lie! This girl knows her stuff and is VERY talented!

    My cake lady sold the business and moved down south. I MISS YOU MELISSA!! I walked into Awesome yesterday and noticed the change immediately- but sidenote I was unaware that the owners changed. The person working the counter explained everything to me but said don't worry- same recipes! I had reached out via email while they were on vacation for a cake for my son's birthday. I was given a quote and thought wow- that's high! I have bought at least 5 cakes from Melissa and only paid that much once when I was ordering for a large party not a dinner for 10. I just thought- well the times they are a changing! Now it makes sense. I changed my order to a dozen cupcakes. Bottom line: I was disappointed. The cupcakes were priced at over $3 a piece and they were small, inconsistent (look at the coloring of the actual cake and some were a little bigger and some a little smaller than others) and the icing was too sweet. I felt I did not spend my money wisely and even sadder, have lost my cake lady...

    Our wedding cake

    All I can say is WOW I highly recommend hiring Awesome Sweets for any of your wedding or party needs, they are absolutely amazing, all of our wedding guests LOVED the cake!! AND THE STAFF?! they were amazing as well!!!

I go…read moreby here every morning in my way to work around 7:00 am and it is always packed, today was no exception but knowing I wanted to experience this place for myself I left a bit earlier for work. Parking can be challenging especially seeing this restaurant runs on Lonsdale Ave a busy street in itself. The line was out the door and that's where I stood waiting patiently. The love moves at a decent pace. Here finally my turn and I honestly had no clue what to expect or what they even really sold but I was hoping they had anything that contained ham and cheese and they did, Brad with ham and cheese for $3.50 I was surprised that was all. They do gave finger foods, drinks coffee and fruit drinks, breads, pastries of many sorts. I was tempted to get a pastry but I stayed focused. The bread was actually good and tasted fresh they only concern which was a big one for me was that there was hardly any ham and cheese in it and I mean like barely none. I could have actually went with just bread as that's what I felt I received. Would I return maybe especially if I am in mood for something g sweet as the variety was plenty to choose from. There is a sit down area on both sides of the restaurant with one big screen tv. This place seems more of a grab and go type establishment. They open at 5:00am and close at I believe 9:00 pm

I don't speak much Spanish so used to get intimidated going into order but the food is just so good, it was worth every trip. Great news is that they just got an online ordering platform! You can order right online for pick up and bypass the long line out the door. The place is always busy but worth the wait, I would definitely suggest ordering online if you are in a rush. They don't have much parking but I always somehow find street parking. It's a very casual place with cafeteria style seating. I get the chicken with potato empanadas, beef empanadas, with their homemade hot sauce. They also have a ton of pastries. All homemade DELICIOUS!

You could see the area in the back where sheets of cookie doughs were waiting to be sent to the oven; fresh daily baked cookies, it seems. Love the interior decor! The server was super nice!

    I know my way around a cookie. And I thought this cookie was pretty good! Granted, I've been here a…read moregrand total of one time, and ordered a single cookie. But I thought that one cookie was great! At first, I was hesitant as the trendy pink decor was reminiscent of Crumbl, whose cookies I do not enjoy. So I was expecting Feed the Cheeks to serve me some generic, overly sweet gimmicky monstrosity that would make me ill. But no! I ordered the chocolate strawberry cookie and I really liked it. It wasn't overly sweet, but balanced in its flavor. The strawberry icing wasn't thick and gross and overly sweet either. The chocolate was rich and because they warmed it up, perfectly ooey gooey. If I had been a little more cognizant of my surroundings instead of getting worked up by the iPad ordering system (can we please bring back human interaction?), I probably would've gotten a four pack of the mini cookies and sampled a few flavors. But when in Rome, order the giant cookies. The cookie still tasted good when I finished it at work the next day, too. The inside is what you'd expect, and very pink. And there's a few short stools at a very low counter you can sit at. I had some time to kill so I sat and ate my cookie there. Passersby looked down on us from the large windows facing Angell Street. Maybe they were jealous that they didn't treat themselves to a big cookie, or maybe they were cherishing their own willpower as they looked forward to the kale salad awaiting them at home. Either way, the cookie was a great choice!

    I've been dying to try this ice cream shop ever since hearing that they offer the rare Ube flavor…read moreof ice cream - one of my favorites and so hard to find! They were finally open on a Wednesday when I was in the area - really appreciating their new extended summer hours - so some friends and I walked over. This is located in an easily walkable part of the city where street parking is pretty doable, so it's a great stop to work in to a friend hang or date night since it's near breweries and restaurants. I had my heart set on the Ube, but the other flavors were awfully tempting - I'm dying to come back for the Fruity Pebbles taco and/or ice cream sandwich ASAP! I ordered the Ube ice cream sandwich, which came on coconut cookies, was dipped in white chocolate, and covered with coconut flakes, for $6.50. The ice cream color was bright purple as Ube often is, and the cookies were soft and perfectly melt in your mouth despite being frozen. I was advised by the owner to let it sit for a few minutes before eating as they start out very cold. I could only stand to wait a few minutes before diving in, which ended up being a fine amount of time. The flavors were decadent, the Ube was so sweet and indulgent, like an extreme vanilla as I always describe it, but with a root/woodsy note to it that's hard to explain. I was totally in heaven while eating this! My friends loved their options: Thai iced tea sandwich, Fruity Pebbles sandwich, and Banana sandwich. The pistachio sandwich was reportedly a little too mild for some tastes. My friend got their limited edition ** corn and blueberry!!** flavor sandwich - WHAT!? So unique! I had to steal a bite and was pleasantly surprised - I didn't get blueberry in my bite, but it was like frozen corn chowder - not savory, but still a distinctly 'corn' flavor, not corn flakes, but true, actual, corn. The cookies were thin and square shaped and seemed like a cross between cornbread and a sugar cookie, although I'm not exactly sure what it was. I'd go back here to try more things in a heartbeat, and the amazing and large plants on display in this little shop give such a fresh, unique, and fun vibe. There are some small tables to eat at while you're here which came in handy for us, and the owner even let us hang out a few minutes past close, stating he'd be there anyways cleaning, so we didn't have to go wait outside in the rain - so sweet on all levels!

Obsessed What incredible flavors / flavor combos! I got the Sweet summer corn & blueberry blondie bar and WHEWWW I was blown away. So flavorful- and these things are HUGE! For only $7 too?
