I want to like this bakery so much, but twice it has fallen very short. Why?…read more I'd read a review about cakes--this must have been a comment about custom cakes because there were no cakes, cupcakes or anything like that there In fact, their total inventory included a few donuts, scones and cookies. I bought a few of each and none tasted particularly fresh (my visits have been in the afternoon) The second time the person at the counter was super friendly, so this is a plus. I do not believe I've met the owner. I'd be hard pressed to go back--just nothing really here to buy.

This place is SO good! There hasn't been one thing I haven't liked…read more FYI, it is hard to find. I went there yesterday and missed it and then went there again this morning and missed it again. Lol. The sign is small and it is in a lot with other businesses. They have coffee and various specialty drinks. They make custom cakes, cupcakes, and then have an assortment of pastries. I believe each week she has a different assortment of pastries available. I ordered a variety of donuts, chocolate pecan scones, a monster cookie, and she had two different kinds of cinnamon rolls. The monster cookie was delicious (there was only one left when I was there unfortunately). The chocolate pecan scones were awesome! There was an iced cinnamon roll and a maple icing cinnamon roll. I LOVED both the cinnamon rolls. They were both very soft and just right. I'm not a huge donut person but the donuts were very good! Stop and try this place!

I always feel bad posting reviews for bakeries because I'm not big on sweets. But nevertheless,…read morehere is my review of the place and the cream puff. The place is clean, cute and nicely decorated with some fun stuff for kids to play. There is plenty of parking right outside and the lady in the store was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, there weren't many thing on display, which, to me, is a part of the fun of visiting bakeries. Cream puff was nice and big and heavy! LOVED the outside crust-flavorful, crunchy, airy and yum! The custard wasn't too sweet and you can taste the good egg flavor. It was really good and I would buy it again, though I wish there was a bit less custard. I had to leave some over because it was too much. However, maybe I felt that it was too much because I'm not a big dessert person. You might find it a balanced ratio, but either way, worth the try!

We were in desperate need of a birthday cake at short notice. I like to use local (not grocery…read morestore chains) when it comes to baked goods and called Friday for a cake to pick up Saturday. They were very accommodating over the phone and the cake was picked up at the appointed time which was terrific. Unfortunately I was very disappointed in the product. The appearance and taste of it was very amateurish, frankly I could've done better myself and I was actually surprised that a professional would have allowed it to leave the bakery. I will return and try their pies and other products before I completely write them off, but would never order another cake from them.

The staff was so friendly and took the time to tell us about their various products. They had some really neat options, including Filipino tokels, described as a shortbread, a Welcome to Fall "WTF" cake with apples and cinnamon, a lemon cookie called a lemondino, and a whole lot more. I was intrigued by the sampler box, which had pieces of all of their small treats to try, but the youngest member of the group had immediately zeroed in on the truffle fudge and voted quite strongly for the entire La Patricia box (6 pieces of chocolatey fudge with a hint of peanut butter). The fudge was rich and delicious and much and enjoyed, and I'm still interested in going back to try some more of these delightful treats!

I'm gluten free, and my wife is gluten, dairy, and egg free so we plan as though we are on our own in the small towns we love to visit so much. Boy we're we wrong in Newark, OH! Madelyn's is a treasure. We tried the cinnamon roll bar (stocked at River Road Coffee), two different kinds of muffins, a jalapeño "cheese" focaccia, and homemade oatmeal crème pies. My only complaint was that the focaccia was a little dry. The oatmeal crème pies were so good! I'm sure they're even better when fresh.
