They usually have both chocolate and cream cannolis as well as various cookies, donuts and sweet rolls. They have a daily bread that changes often as well as some standards. You can also order cakes and pies with normally one to two day notice. They serve coffee and espresso drinks as well. They are very customer friendly.

I bought a birthday cake here last week. This bakery has been a family favorite for years…read moreespecially for the danishes. I didn't have time to do my usual birthday cake option so I went with Hillcrest this time. It's the first cake I've had there. There was a line out the place but they had 3 staff members working and they were cheerful. I scored because I got the last small cake and it was Oreo. I love frosting and it was good but it dried up by the second day. The only other thing I would change would be to have more cake so it evens out the balance of cake to frosting ratio.

My husband and I got married this past September. We were directed to Christina based upon the…read moresize and location of our event - due to her minimum pricing Blue Box is not an option for small weddings but was perfect for our medium size guest count (just over 100). When meeting for our tasting, we went with the more extravagant 8 flavor option as my husband is a chocolate fan but I am not...this was well worth the price as we got 8 mini cakes to try which meant plenty to take home and enjoy over the weekend! Christina won us over with her flavors and enthusiasm, she provided some off the menu suggestions for mixing and matching sponge and fillings which was awesome. Ultimately, we settled on a mix of a traditional wedding cake (we were so pleased to get more than one flavor choice), along with a smaller gluten free cake and a number of sweet treats to appeal to a wide range of dietary restrictions and palates. When it came to design, Christina was very attentive to our inspiration photos/vision but also mindful of our budget as sugar past dahlias are not easy or inexpensive! When we discussed incorporating our dogs, she had a vendor lined up to make figurines and took care of the ordering process once we provided her some photos. Ultimately, she knocked it out of the park both with appearance and taste! I am hopeful that she waives her fee minimum in the event we want a one tier anniversary cake (-:

It's been 4 years since my wedding, and I STILL get comments on how good my desserts were! Just…read morethis last weekend was my sister in laws birthday, and ever since she's been trying to recreate the chocolate peanut butter crunch cake at my wedding but nothing has hit the spot, and my other sister in law we gave some of the leftover marionberry panacotta and told me she treated every single one she ate like gold. My only gripe is that I would LOVE to order that cake again to surprise my SIL with, but alas due to the order minimum I probably won't be able to make it happen. Totally understandable as Christina is rightfully thoroughly booked with bigger orders.

Consistently good. Haven't been back for a while as their croissants still as good. Im a sucker for…read morethose that I can peel layers off and these does the job. The owner is also very nice and friendly. It's a quiet place and I hope they get more businesses. This time I got 3 different croissants: raspberry chocolate, brioche fuillete, and a everything seasoned croissant. The raspberry chocolate was my favorite because of the crunch you get from the crystal sugar on top but that's not saying much. The other two was basically just as good with their own things. Brioche fuillete had a subtle sugary finish on top and the layers are to die for. The savory croissant was impressive because the flavors stood out

I was just…read moregoing to buy a single pastry to stack on, but I walked out with several because I couldn't choose. Beautiful croissants, pastries of all varieties, baguettes, and sourdough.

I left in the fridge overnight, air fried it the next day, and it still tastes so good. While this bakery is a bit tucked away, the unique flavors make it well worth the search.

This is primarily a review of the cake I ordered for my birthday. I ended up needing to pick up the…read morecake on mother's day because they're closed on Mondays. It was pretty easy to make a cake order and the writing was free, unlike online where it says $5 for writing. When I got the cake, I was a bit disappointed. The writing had bled onto the cake, there was a crack in the frosting and it appeared that the frosting at the bottom leaned piped to the board instead of the cake. I didn't bother mentioning this at pick up because it didn't seem like the worker was also the cake person. The cake itself was a tad dry but light and airy. For the price I paid, I was disappointed by the outcome. Even if it was due to additional cake orders due to mother's day, I do expect better than this when I buy a cake from a local bakery. Also if you like crispy croissants, I do not recommend the Sichuan pepper cruffin. It was tasty but it didn't have the crisp that you'd expect from a bakery.

In short It's a quiet little hole in the wall. Okay, right?…read moreIt's also an influencer-driven phenomenon like Everett sees only rarely, if ever. Incredible lineup of breads and pastries in the Kurdish tradition. In long I must've driven by this place 50 times at the very least over the last few years. I never had the slightest idea what was happening back here. Cookies, Mexican, Central American, Filipino, taking my lovely bride to get her nails done, I've been in this parking lot at least monthly since they opened. It took influencer reels to finally get me in. Yeah, I'm dumb. It's the farthest-back corner in a sprawling strip mall, mixed in with at least a dozen other sprawling strip malls on a 6-lane road by the big mall. Lots of chain businesses. You can't assume that every place through here oozes character, but this one does. Inside, it's a couple chairs, a couple pastry cases, a little shelving, and hundreds of square feet of kitchen behind that. Multiple big ovens. Maybe half a dozen folks working away. Super friendly happy vibe, though I personally don't speak the language. Saturday afternoon I came in after a reel blew up online. Turns out they had a line out the door earlier that day. Gorgeous sunny weekend, everybody with free time came in. There were like 6 cookies left. In the whole place. Bakers were doing nothing but cleaning by that point. After I saw the video of dozens of people in line (on their Insta), I scrolled down a bit and saw that dude's baking videos with his kid get up to and beyond a million likes. For a little bakery. In Everett WA. Forgive me for not knowing this was even possible. Anyway, those cookies. Brownie cookies with a dollop of cream frosting in the middle. So damn good. A little crisp outside, soft and chewy inside. This isn't even something they list on their website and it's one of the better cookies I've had. Evidently they just throw it in the case as a special when the spirit moves 'em. This morning I thought I solved the puzzle. Went in right after they opened. On a school day. Nope. They had pita, croissants, and 3 pieces of baklava. I got some of each, including all the baklava. Expecting it all to rock at least as hard as those cookies. I had my eye on 3 or 4 other things from their website, but dude said they got crushed on a MONDAY MORNING and sold out of a bunch of stuff. Okay. Challenge accepted. I gotta keep coming back with my fingers crossed, I guess. lol

Although the pita and breads are hand made and are sold fresh (which I love), I happened to really…read morelove the croissant the most. Particularly the pistachio cream. It tasted like they used European butter, because it had a slightly fermented tang which I have only had in French bakeries in Seattle and I absolutely love. The croissants are also very buttery and heavy, beware, but such a delight. Also had an eggplant curry and flatbread - they were super fresh. But my favorite thing here was the croissant.

If you haven't been yet, the entire bakery setup is amazing, but their cakes are the absolute crown jewel. Here is what makes this place stand out: Perfectly Balanced Cakes: As you can see from the beautiful mango cake ,their desserts are a work of art. The best part? They use high-quality ingredients and have significantly less sugar than typical American bakeries. It's light, airy, and not overwhelmingly sweet. Excellent Savory Selection: Beyond the sweets, their savory pastries and baked goods are top-tier and always fresh. Great Service & Cozy Atmosphere: The service here is exceptionally welcoming and efficient. While it's a popular spot, they do have a few seats inside if you want to sit down and enjoy your treat on the spot. Whether you're picking up a signature cake box for a birthday or just grabbing a morning pastry, this place completely delivers on quality. Highly recommended!
