Came here on a cold Saturday morning because several have recommended this bakery on Walnut Street…read more Since it's just a small walk-in, we purchased a few goodies and took them to a cafe to enjoy them with some coffee. They have two cases of their delicious looking pastries, one table of discounted items, and a case serving hot items. Open that case and serve yourself the hot mini quiches and empanadas. Started with a mini quiche and a beef empanada. Hubby liked his quiche. I'm not a fan of olives and they were all over my beef empanada. Will not be getting that one again. The kind young lady behind the case helped us order our very first Burnt Almond Torte. It comes in different sizes and we chose the bar as it easily serves two. She even gave us sporks to eat it with. We really loved the Burnt Almond Torte. The inside has a soft, moist vanilla cake layered with a thin layer of icing and enrobed with more icing and topped with the buttery, crunchy almonds. We will be back for more.

We, recently, moved to the area and decided to try Prantl's today. We ended up with the Burnt…read moreAlmond Torte Bar, a quiche, and an Empanada. I started with the quiche and enjoyed it; the crust was just average but the egg filing was very good. My wife was not a fan of the empanada so we will not get that again. It was around 10 hours before we tried our Burnt Almond Torte...wow! That dessert is something that I will eat again, and again. The toasted almonds were soooo good! They were crunchy, crispy, and perfect. The Bar Cake had a white cake inside and icing on the outside; it was heavily coated in those almonds. The person who assisted was knowledgeable about the items to a point; she did not eat anything in the bakery so it was by observation. Don't care, that Burnt Almond Torte is the real deal!

When I ordered a custom designed "Barbie Cake" for my girlfriend's birthday she took all my vague requests and turned them into something delicious that reminded her of happy child hood memories. The price was VERY reasonable for the high quality of what we got, and her accommodations for my strange pickup schedule were very much appreciated as I passed through town on my way to Columbus. I've had a few of her cupcakes and other creations at various events and every time they are quite good, some of the best especially considering the creative visual presentations. Highly recommended.

I brought one of her cakes to a friend's birthday party and let me tell you.... people were asking me for her contact information the whole rest of the party! Her flavor options for cakes/ cupcakes include: double chocolate, coconut, white raspberry, red velvet and and everything in between. But, her carrot cake and sweet potato cake are my all time favorites. Literally, the most unbelievable cream cheese icing you'll ever taste!

Went to try the fruit pastries! The lemon tart and chocolate one were both really good. The lemon…read moreone had a super tart and strong lemon flavor and the chocolate one was super rich and had a little crunch on the inside. The blueberry one was not as good since the flavor was not as strong. The pumpkin one was okay, I think these really depend on what flavors you like. I've also had the macaroons here and they were really good. The staff was super nice and helpful with answering our questions. They were out of the raspberry one but she was telling us we could order ahead and save one for us to pick up next time. There's some small tables in there to sit and have coffee or your pastries which is nice.

I went to the new Market District on Penn Avenue today for the first time. And I, like so many…read moreothers, wondered while it was being built, why we needed yet another Market District when there was already one literally down the street. But as soon as I walked into the store, I realized that this store is even more beautiful and luxurious and, I think, larger than even the Whole Food stores. The phrase from the Wizard of Oz, that kept coming to my mind was "we are not in kansas anymore." This place is not only gorgeous, but the incredible attention to detail throughout the entire store is immediately apparent. I would have stayed and shopped longer, but I have a bad hip and am walking on a cane, so I just went in, purchased what I needed and then left. I can't wait to go back there after my hip surgery so that I can experience every aisle. But don't just go by my review, you just have to go there. SO GO THERE! YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!

Great spot for dessert after dinner or as part of a date, too. I specifically went in for the "fancy" hot chocolate, which is made with real chocolate pieces. The baked goods were also tasty - my only suggestion is to make sure you ask to have your item warmed up, depending on what you get, as they are kept in a cool case and something like a brownie for example was pretty hard to eat. The sever did recognize this and offered to heat it up after the fact; which made it perfect. All of the baked goods were perfectly wrapped or garnished. The interior has a decent amount of seating and lots of dried flowers everywhere. Definitely try the hot chocolate!

I've also had a friend get multiple cakes from them and they all looked beautifully crafted. Parking is annoying, but there's a garage nearby and some street parking. Cute shop. I recommend checking online for their flavors before driving in to make sure you go on a day that you get something that sounds interesting. Their basic vanilla is anything but basic, so always recommend that one as well. The service has always been good, never had any issues!
