This place, wow, where to start??
My son and I were on the way to School, to drop him off, and we noticed this bakery (where I think a tattoo shop was), so we decided to stop on the way home later that day.
It's charming inside, I'm not sure it's fully set up yet, not clear on how long it's been in that spot either because it kind of just appeared. But I'm extremely happy that it did. It's a great location, on a main road, lots of parking and they have breakfast sandwiches that I am dying to try so look out for that.
We looked over all the treats, my 11yr old is best at that. They had so many great, creative options, BEAUTIFULLY put together. You could tell the person making them was proud of their work, and they should be.
My son is a sucker for a lemon square, he saw there was only one left so he knew they had to be good, they were amazing, perfectly balanced, the CRUST
Two mini chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting that were very nice. Usually mini cupcakes can be kind of dry, but these weren't. They were almost a little fudgy, the frosting was nice and light so it wasn't overbearing and heavy.
A HUGE chocolate brownie, like she was THICK! My 4yr old struggled to get his little mouth around it, but you could tell he didn't mind at all. I'm not sure how that was because he wouldn't share, so I assume it was pretty tasty, because he usually will.
I got a chocolate dipped macaroon, a raspberry pick me up and chocolate dipped serrano peppers. The macaroon was a macaroon, but I find them all fantastic, you can't really mess that up and if you can, I've never had one that has been. But that little raspberry pick me up, with all its delicate flaky layers was almost my favorite thing. It was lovely, the cream wasn't overly sweet, the filling wasn't overpowering, that sweet flaky crust was definitely the star and it had every right to be.
Now for my FAVORITE thing, the chocolate dipped Serano peppers. I'm in love, they are amazing. I want to try them with dark chocolate, maybe some sea salt on them. Serano peppers are pretty mild as far as hot peppers go. You can get hot ones here and there, but for the most part, they're a mild pepper. And chocolate definitely makes them sing! So don't be scared to give em a whirl.
It's definitely worth the stop if you're already in the area and in my opinion, worth a trip even if you're not.
I noticed these strawberry shortcake skewers in the back that weren't done being made yet. The woman making them said that they were a Saturday special, so I'm not sure if that meant every Saturday or just last Saturday. But if you go in there on a Saturday check them out because they looked fantastic. read more
