We stopped in midmorning on a Saturday, and it was busy with a mix of locals and students. The counter staff was friendly and helpful. The pastry case made it tough to choose, but we went with a Pumpkin Cheesecake Cruffin, Maple Pecan Blondie, BLT Croissant, and coffee. Everything was fresh and tasty. They also sell loaves of bread and other baked goods to take home. The staff was warm and polite, and even those working behind the counter who weren't serving us took a moment to say thanks for coming in. Will definitely be visiting again.

I mostly just came here for the chips bag (Bolitas $5.99) and conchas ($1.99/each). Nothing disappointed. My goodness, it was sooo good and the conchas are large too!! They are soft, made fresh daily (you can tell with the first bite), not overly sweet. Just perfect as how I remember them from back in Cali. I know that when I ever pass by Bismarck, I'm making sure to stop here for pan!! The pan dulce is not self serve, the owners help bag the bread for one. They are both very nice. Everything is sorted well at the store and I think mostly labeled with prices which helps my social anxiety I seriously regret not getting more conchas. I only got four and now I'm down to the last concha that I don't want to share

Super quaint, a staple if you are visiting. All of the food was good and I'm convinced everything on the menu is probably just as good. Being from the south, I doubted finding any proper country diners, but boy was I mistaken. Everything was warm and so comforting in the dishes we ordered. They have German food option and American food (and LOTS of good looking breakfast food). Would highly recommend.

They have everything from simple Bavarian cream to guava and mango flavor! It's hard to choose but my favorite is the mango donut, a simple glazed donuts full of fresh mango filling, it's heaven! We met one of the employees of the bakery and he told us how they make sure to have quality ingredients and make sure nothing is old and stale. They also make Cuban and Puerto Rican sandwiches if you want something savory, he said to call him ahead of time so that we can have something fresh right when we eat. So thankful to have a diverse local business!

From the moment we wandered in, the owner was incredibly friendly and helpful. Not only did he explain what every dessert in the case was and how it was made, he let us try their fresh baked breads and described their sandwiches and the grocery area of the store as well! It was a personal tour and we were so grateful! One of my friends has family in Mexico/travels there frequently and was delighted to find some of her favorite soda as well as desserts (albeit with different names) here. And she left well stocked! Of course I had to ask if they had a vegetarian sandwich (as he was describing how they make their sandwich meat) and he paused a beat and then exclaimed, "That's not latin!" Oh it was so funny, we all had a great laugh! He went on to say he'd be happy to put some veggies on a sandwich for me if I wanted. We did ask how he came to North Dakota and he explained it was because of the hurricane in Puerto Rico awhile back. We told him how happy we were he chose Bismarck of all places. It can't be easy! We all left loaded down with bakery boxes and items from the grocery portion of the store. And were all delighted at how amazing their prices were! Seriously - this place has great prices. I got tres leches, a giant slab of the most amazing vanilla cake, a cup of what tasted like horchata that was a cross between pudding/jello in texture, and a cork screw shaped pastry filled with bavarian cream that I've seen reviewers call a cannoli but he was specific in the fact that it was absolutely not a cannoli. (I believe he called it a quesito but I could be wrong.) The owner also stressed that the desserts in the case change in variety daily so what may be there one day won't be there the next. All in all - this business is fantastic in every way (right down to the fact that the room was absolutely spotless and sparkling clean) and we will be back next time we are in Bismarck! Please turn out and support this wonderful new business!

The owner (her name escapes me) looked at us as if we had horns growing out of our heads for not wanting a full wedding cake. For a few minutes we tried to tell her exactly what a sweetheart cake is and what we wanted on it. She sort of shoo'd us away and told us to go look at the crusty, fake cakes on display in the shop. We left instead. I was so disappointed in her customer service that I'm giving her two stars. Her selection of product is great. However, perhaps because she's probably the biggest private cake maker in Bismarck she thinks she can be sassy and pretentious.

This review is for a custom birthday cake…read more The birthday cake I ordered looked beautiful. The frosting job was perfect, the prairie roses were a lovely touch. It was fantastic to look at. Once you get beyond the looks the cake was decidedly average. The cake itself was fine. It was neither poor nor distinguished. Just an average cake, probably about like you'd get at a super market. It's clear they're not using some world-class chocolate here or fantastic ingredients. So if "fine" works for you, I think you'll be pleased. If you're looking for something truly special, I'm afraid this isn't it.

It's actually kind of remarkable how she could make shopping for a treat a bad time. So my conclusion is this. The doughnuts are good, the lady is a bit of a bear, and her customer service is scat.
