    This is the chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling.
    Amanda S.

    My 10-year-old wanted a cake that was inspired by Taylor Swift's new album. I found a picture online for inspiration and emailed it to the bakery. It was very short notice, and the owner told me that he could make it with such short notice, but not with as much flourishing. We got the 10 inch chocolate with chocolate mousse filling cake. It was delicious.

    Cannoli

    Came here during the week. In- laws are in town and wanted to suprise them with cannolis. Wanted to try something different from Mikes and Modern. I called the shop asking if they had cannolis, the women said yes than hung up on me. Was very off put by the phone customer service. I still came and got a few different cannolis and tiramisu. The young lady working was very sweet and I got some AMAZING desserts. My in laws were impressed and so was I. Can't wait to come back for me, I don't care about the hangup- the cannolis are worth it!

    This is one of many images on the internet of what the cake should look like

    See all

    The Italian pastries here are unmatched! Their ricotta pie is absolutely incredible--easily the best I've ever had.

    Parigini old, stale and dry. Usually they do a good job, not today!! Hopefully they will do better next time.

    The bakery has really gone down hill, no matter what i get there now, I don't enjoy it. I hope they work at improving it again.

    I came here before a party to pick up a variety of desserts and was disappointed. Nothing really stood out as amazing or worth trying again.

    Smokin' Hearth - In goes the liquid nitrogen!

    Smokin' Hearth

    (2 reviews)

    This review only covers their liquid nitrogen watermelon sorbet @ Sowa market…read more SO COOL. Literally and figuratively. Who would've thought you could see liquid nitrogen dessert @ a low key food truck market like Sowa? I didn't. Anything involving food + liquid nitrogen is usually a thing of upscale establishments. My friend and I were so ecstatic to see such a sight and offering for only $6. No preservatives added. Just straight up scoops from a watermelon and a couple dribbles of simple sugar syrup (water and cane sugar). Blend that. Then in goes the liquid nitrogen from a hole in the blender. We all watch with childhood excitement at the white puffs of smoke flowing out. It's a rumbling watermelon volcano in the making and great visually and tactilely for people of all ages. Refreshingly cold with the flavoring of watermelon purely intact, by far the coolest and healthiest dessert I've had :)

    Stumbled upon the Sowa Market on a Sunday afternoon filled with food trucks and vendors. I already…read moreknew this was the truck to look for thanks to a review I read on Yelp. The watermelon sorbet is $6 (cash, credit card accepted). They also serve pizza there if anyone's interested. The watermelon sorbet is freshly scooped out of a half-watermelon, added sugar syrup, and liquid nitrogen. The magic happens when the guy adds in the liquid nitrogen. He's also very friendly and willing to wait and pose for pictures. The sorbet texture is amazing.. smooth with just the right amount of sweets. For those who are wondering (and people did ask at the market).. yes, it tastes exactly like watermelon.

    Kennedy’s Ice Cream Bar - Sign

    Kennedy’s Ice Cream Bar

    Kennedy's is the real deal: a Melrose gem…read more I took my two sons to Kennedy's for the first time recently, and I can already tell this is going to become a weekly tradition. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was exactly what you want from a neighborhood ice cream shop: friendly, unpretentious, and completely focused on making great ice cream. The star of my visit? The Nutella Stackable. I almost went with something safer, but I'm so glad I didn't. Layer after layer of rich, velvety Nutella ice cream, it was indulgent in the best possible way and tasted like they somehow captured the essence of Nutella and made it even better. My boys were eyeing it the entire time, which is the highest compliment I can give. Speaking of the boys, they were immediately at home here. The staff was patient and cheerful while two excited kids deliberated for what felt like forever, and the portions were generous enough that everyone left completely satisfied. No small feat with those two. Kennedy's has the feel of a place that's been done right: quality ingredients, a welcoming atmosphere, and people behind the counter who clearly take pride in what they're serving. Melrose is lucky to have it!

    Definitely stop by for a creative sundae, they have so many "stackables" options on boards all…read morearound the shop and a variety of toppings and add ons for your ice cream. The prices are on the higher side for a local spot and they appear to serve Gifford's and a variety of ice cream products from different suppliers. The variety is worth the visit if you're in the area but I wouldn't go out of my way. It's a busy shop, expect a line especially on weekends. My main complaint was how long it took to order, I came in with a friend and there were 3 groups in front of us but we waited 25 minutes. I understand it was busy but they seemed short staffed having to juggle the walk up window and the line inside the shop.
