Cragside Downs is a wonderful local business that specializes in making authentic British baked…read moregoods and British food, using traditional recipes. Owner/operator Katie Fokias Wheeler was born in North East England, where she lived until marrying an American soldier from Weiser, Idaho. Today, Katie and her family live in Kuna. She named her business after a historical home she and her husband visited on their honeymoon. Katie sells her baked goods and preserves at local farmer's markets, as well as event/bazaar booths. She also takes custom orders of just about anything British, including savory items. To find and/or contact Katie, join her private Facebook page, or you can call her. I have included a photo that is a screenshot of her Facebook page. I visited Katie at the Meridian farmers market, which she frequents. KM and I bought a variety of items. Some of our favorites were the Cherry Bakewell Tarts, Jam & Coconut Sponge cake, Scones, and Shortbread. We also enjoyed getting to try the "Royal Wedding" Elderflower Sponge cake. If you recall, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had a Lemon-Elderflower cake with raspberry filling for their wedding cake. I can't say enough good things about this unique business. Whether you're planning a tea party, want to surprise your favorite Anglophile, or just want to purchase some delicious treats for you and your family, Cragside Downs has exactly what you are looking for. Highly Recommended!!!

The best British food in town! The only thing that beats the food is the owner, extremely lovely.read more

I needed a cake for an 80's themed party and wanted something very specific, a Rubick's cube. After…read morechecking around, I decided to go with A Slice of Life Custom Cakes and was absolutely thrilled with the experience. In the past my experience with high end designed custom cakes was you either get a cake that looks amazing but tastes average or worse or you get a great tasting cake with average design. This experience was totally different. The cake looked amazing and tasted even better! The designer was very thorough, the cake was substantial and looked perfect. It made the perfect focal piece for the party. And, it looked so good no one wanted to cut it (but we did and it was consumed)! The value was very high and the cost quite reasonable for such an amazing cake, I wish I could upload a picture of what the cake looked like here, it was very cool. I give a slice of life custom cakes my highest endorsement, I'll be buying many more cakes there in the years to come!

If you need a cake that will be well received and taste next level try this cake. It is hand decorated to your specifications and is impressive. The cake, from this cakery, is a surprisingly wonderful flavor combination that is so decadent and delicious! It is a tasty carrot cake with layers of that moist carrot cake sandwiched in between layers of strawberry mascarpone cream icing. It sounds like a unique combination and it is. So flavorful and each morsel is pure bliss.

Stopped in today to grab an apple fritter for my husband. I was quite shocked at how small the…read moreapple fritters were. I don't remember them being so small. I have bought a handful of donuts, bagels and donuts from this joint and don't recall them being that size. Asked the gal who helped me if it was normal for them to be so small. She replied with "it depends on the day". So, basically some days you're getting your money's worth and some days you're getting screwed. Pretty sad. Desperate of how small they were, my husband enjoyed the two fritters I got him. I had to get two since they were so tiny. Other local joints are selling fritters the size of their two, even bigger. Granted it's double in cost but I'm more than happy to pay that much for a good size fritter. I know I'm getting a lot of bang for my buck. With so many local bakeries and food trucks that are selling donuts, the last thing you want to do is shrink your products on your locals who have been supporting your local business.

My wife ordered a birthday cake for me last week. She asked them to cover the entire cake with flowers made from frosting, no writing, no other decorations, just entirely covered with frosting flowers. Wow - it did not disappoint!

She will do whatever you want for your wedding and she is very personable and helpful. Linda not only showed up on time with the cake but also added cupcake sleeves that we bought for the cupcakes. She was not like others who would just drop off the cake and leave, she hang out and asked if there was anything else she could do to help. Linda's cakes is the only way to go ladies!!!!!!!!!!

When I got the cake, it didn't look anything like it and she had excuses as to why it was misshapen. She raved about how good it would taste, as well and it was very dry and the fondant was so tough, it couldn't even be nibbled on. I would not recommend her until she takes some more classes on how to design and decorate cakes, especially if she is going to charge a somewhat pricey fee. I could have done a better job myself and was rather disappointed when I got it home.

The absolute worst service we have ever had…read more.. 1 week before our wedding, we reach out to ensure everything is still a go and that there are no issues. Well, low and behold we get an email back, an automated message at that, stating that they were no longer in business and that they apologized. 1 week!!! 1 week before our wedding WE had to reach out to them in order to find this out. Its now coming up on a week AFTER our wedding and we are still without our refund and still ZERO communication whatsoever. Do not, under any circumstance, use this company if they come back. All emails are available for those to read. HORRIBLE customer service.

Unfortunately, the flavors didn't live up to the presentation for me. I tried the carrot cake cupcake and was expecting a classic cream cheese frosting, but what I got tasted more like a very sweet white frosting. If there was cream cheese in it, I couldn't really tell. The cake itself also had a slightly soapy/perfumey flavor, almost like the batter picked up fragrance from a recently cleaned counter. I'm very sensitive to that taste and it really threw me off. I also tried the Boston Cream Pie cupcake. There was barely any Bavarian cream filling inside, which was disappointing since that's the main reason to order that flavor. The cupcake was also very crumbly, making it difficult to hold and eat. Overall, the shop is cute and the display is beautiful, but the flavors I tried didn't quite deliver. I might give it another try someday in case I just picked the wrong flavors.

So many beautiful cupcakes here, in all sorts of styles and flavors!!!…read more It's a very small shop, but loaded to the brim with sweets. They have ice cream too!
