Ah, I am utterly charmed! This cafe / eclectic tchotchke store is chock full of homemade goodness:…read morefrom jam, soap, and crocheted cozies in the store section, to sandwiches, salads, cupcakes, Lebanese baklava, and other baked goods in the cafe section. They bake everything in house, with specials on some days (e.g. Sweet Bun Sunday). The selection is vast, especially considering that everything is scratch made in-house. Aromas are enticing! We picked up an orange cranberry dream bar, studded with plenty of white chocolate chips, coconut, and dried cranberries, topped with orange cream cheese frosting and more dried cranberries. It was *enormous* and easily served as dessert for four. Also in our order: a streusel topped blueberry cake, as moist as could be and filled with fresh blueberries. It was also generously proportioned, large enough for at least two. We didn't try any salads, breakfast platters, or sandwiches on this visit, but they looked fantastic, based on what I saw on other customers' plates. I found that the super friendly owners are of Lebanese descent when I asked about the Lebanese baklava at checkout -- and evidently, they sometimes have Lebanese meat pies on offer! I cannot wait to come back to try every Lebanese food item they have, since my family is passionately fond of the cuisine (and really, everything else, too). I had no idea such riches could be found in Torrington! You can't throw a rock without hitting an Italian-American in this town -- not that I would ever throw a rock at an Italian-American :) -- but this is the first I've heard of a Lebanese-American contingent in these parts. I'm so glad Yelp led me here!

I had also heard from another cup cake place and she was cold, and more interested in telling me what she will do and getting a down payment. Miltali was friendly. I ordered 8 dozen and she threw in extra dozen for free. $30/dozen. They looked really nice. We picked them up but they deliver for fee, would have been $10 for my distance. I also got to choose any flavors. I chose strawberry vanilla choc and red velvet. They were decorated nicely. I would use her again. Guests said they were yummy.

The only thing we don't like are the other desserts in the case. There has only been one thing that we have enjoyed, and it was a Mango Toaster Pastry from our first visit. Other than that, we find the brownies, cookies, etc. to be pretty average...sometimes too sweet, sometimes too bland. Cupcakes are their specialty for sure, and we'll keep coming back for those.

There are different seating options including a back room which houses a beautiful yellow sofa, blue chairs, coffee table, and three arcade games. There is also a large room downstairs to rent out for gatherings such as birthday parties. Such a nice idea! The gluten-free cupcakes were soft, rich and yummy. I wish I had more. There was a really nice guy working the day I came in. He has been working for Hardcore Sweet Bakery for two years. He was very helpful and answered all of my many questions. He's a keeper! The only thing this place is missing is coffee. Then it would be absolutely perfect. Love this place! Snack and stay awhile.

The lavender macaron is a must try, along with the lavender lemon cupcake. (Huge lavender fan) The cakes/cupcakes are always perfectly moist, each having great flavor, and a crumb never gets left behind. With the lightness of the buttercream, it's a perfect combination and not too heavy. Cupcakes, macarons, cookies, Tiramisu, cannolis, cheesecake, scones, key lime pie, brownies, macarons...an endless variety of delicious treats, perfect for birthdays, weddings, backyard bbq, graduation parties or just because you want a sweet for yourself. Highly recommended especially for a girls date and Mothers Day! The owner is so pleasant and truly takes pride in her business and is so friendly & warm.

We had our friend order for us as our "secret keeper" and told her all the details (size and flavors we wanted) but she was informed that the cake needed to be vanilla only for "food coloring purposes". Fast forward to the reveal, the cake wasn't even colored. They added small about of colored buttercream which absolutely could have been the flavor we wanted. In addition, the price on their website for the cake was one thing and then they charged us DOUBLE because it was "custom". Called to explain our frustration and upset and they said there was nothing they could do. Very disappointed and will not be ordering anything from here again.
