Great experience AND a great cake. I wandered in here 2 weeks before my dad's marriage to his…read morepartner of 20 years with no idea how to go about buying a cake for their wedding. I wanted more of a groom's cake rather a traditional multilevel wedding cake. Ellen listened to my vague and lame ideas on cake shapes then steered me towards a wonderful design that incorporated aspects of the two grooms lives together. Two weeks later the cake was delivered and was a huge hit. PLUS it was delicious which is generally not something I expect in a wedding cake. Dark chocolate with vanilla butter cream and salted caramel = yum. A big thank you to Ellen!

Even though she wasnt on our "approved vendor list" at Tupper Manor, we used her anyways..THATS HOW GOOD HER CAKES ARE! we had lemon curd with vanilla cake and buttercream. OMG! when a cake is made by someone who uses quality ingredients and spends time (and her own hands, not a Factory) to make you a AMAZING looking cake, it shows. We sadly just ate the last slice from the "top tier" we took home. If you are looking for a talented cake maker who loves what she does, Ellen is for you! Dont settle for a big company that doesnt care and turns out sub par product. Find someone like Ellen..she sent us 5 designs she drew herself before we even picked the winning one. My cake cutting picture with my husband, is my profile picture on facebook. THATS HOW AWESOME IT WAS! We went by her shop today to thank her and she made us two cupcakes on the spot! Talk about awesome!

Service was friendly and prompt. It looked like food is served from another window and drinks are ready at the end of the counter. Looking at the display of treats, so many things looked so good! But as we can't try them all in one visit, we ordered two of the Citrus Blueberry Corn Slices and two Sticky Bun Lattes (iced and hot). Those corn slices I can write home about. Or better yet, post about it on Yelp! They were moist and not crumbly, the blueberries added an extra pop of juicy flavor and paired so well. It was the perfect snack. The Sticky Bun Lattes were a great warm up for the opposing grey rain sky. Sweet hot caffeine, is there anything better?

There are a couple breakfast "chubbies" with things like eggs, cheese, and sausage. There's a Mac n' cheese chubbie, snd 3 flavors of Fatties (aka cookies). Drinks and ice cream are also available, I ordered a Nutty Buddy fattie and it was warm and delicious! I did have 1/2 and saved some for the next day but I think it's best when it's warm (as all cookies are!). I would've loved it if they had more than three flavors to choose from since they also offer cookies by the dozen, and it would be more fun to have a bigger variety in your box, but regardless, what they do have to offer is yummy.

Though considering it's Salem during October, this is probably the same with most other places. It probably took me 30 mins or so to get the food after getting in line. I had their tater tots, classic, and the sausage egg and cheese. For their classic, I got it with croissant as the "bread." It's supposed to come with sriracha sauce but I didn't really taste it. For the sausage egg and cheese, I had their cheese and herb. Eating it, it tastes like a Brazilian cheese bread (pao de queijo) and it's shaped like a biscuit. It's a place I enjoyed and would definitely come again!

They have a variety of gluten free foods - ALL CLEARLY LABELED! Eggs, bakery pastries, sandwiches, and treats! My two favorites were the butter cake and the blueberry lemon scone - which tasted not "gluten free" and SO GOOD. My husband who is not gluten free also loved this place and had an egg sandwich one day, and some sort of tater tot bowl the second day! The staff was friendly and it was also just a great place to sit and start the day!
