Kind of bland. My favorite is red velvet cupcakes and these just don't do it for me. I have also tried the key lime pie. It was good other than the fact that they put too much lime zest in it. The people there are also very nice and they do have great service. The one thing that counts the most is what I'm paying for and that is the food. It's just not something I crave.

I don't often post about places when I'm out of town but I had to make an exception here. This place is incredible. Low key flex, I have had pastries in soooo many different places. This place goes toe to toe with all of them. SoCal, NorCal, PNW, Italy, whatever. All places I've had baked goods and all of those places this spot is competing with. You probably can't go wrong with what you pick but the scone options, cinnamon rolls, cake balls, bon Bons, edible cookie dough, cookies, truffles, cakes, and idk is there something I'm missing? It all looked incredible. I tried a cake ball, a bon bon, a truffle, and a cookie. All strictly elite. Farmhouse bakery I love you and I hate you. I love you because yum yum so good. I hate you because it will be forever until I can come back. Someone else go see her and tell her I love her please. (4.9 Stars)

Bottom Line: Fudge bacon brownie had serious heft, but came…read moreup short on namesake flavors or integrity/structure. Top Line: Picked up a Blue Horse fudge bacon brownie $6 at Brendyn's BBQ yesterday along with a meal, saving the brownie as a treat for today. So returned to Brendyn's this afternoon to get tea for eating the brownie. Brownie is seriously heavy!! Very, very moist beneath the layer of baby chocolate chips and extraordinarily tender of crumb. Too much so I found. The block of chocolate cake-like brownie crumbled into pieces as I tried to pick it up. I finally resorted to pinching off small wads of it to pop into my mouth. While being very moist with oil density, the flavor profile was about on par with a supermarket bakery brownie. Plenty of chocolate taste, but minimal (if any) bacon smokiness shining through. Fudge's buttery brown sugar sweetness or cream's richness were likewise AWOL. So I'd say this was a decent $2.50 brownie. But nowhere near justifying the $6 ticket price I paid to get it, in spite of its moistness. If I'm in the neighborhood of Blue Horse's sticks 'n bricks location I may hit them up for a cupcake or some such to see how that flies. But no more brownies from them for me.

So four years later (2021 summer), my review remains the same. I actually placed an order for a…read morecake, it looked very nice however it was really dry. I'm not sure why they made it so tall either, is that an "IN" thing? It was hard to cut and honestly didn't even fit a dessert plate LOL. I dunno maybe there's a way to cut that style. My request was last mintute but I don't really thing it would've been a big deal anyway because they had duplicates already on the table. It was okay, I wouldn't order it again though TBH. It's a cute bakery but there needs to be a few improvements on taste/texture. The coffee isn't that great either but there's not really a lot of options around. I know the next day after the Festival there was a coffee truck on the main square and that was GOOD! I can't remember the name of it but if there's a coffee truck in that area, they serve some BAD AS coffee!
