    Mocha cake DRY AF.

    I heard good things about this place BUT I am so disappointed! Fresh AF try Dry AF! I spent over $80 on goodies a chocolate mocha cake, frosting had little to no flavor the cake was so dry shameful! The cheese cakes disappointing. Some cookie whoopie pie filled with a cookie dough filling, threw most of it out! Sadly maybe one out of the 8 things I bought was decent. I will never go back! Very expensive for subpar desserts!!!

    Smore Trifle (?) and Peanut Butter Chocolate Trifle (going by memory-names may not be right)!

    If you haven't been to the new location of Fresh AF, you need to run, don't walk!! Everything you get will be amazing!! I have been twice in 2 days- and this will just be my review for today! I finally was able to get some pictures before we ate it all! First, the new place is beautiful. Taryn did a great job, to create a warm, and welcoming place. Everyone is friendly, even when there are lines- which yes, sometimes there are- they move very quickly, the staff is excellent, and they move everyone along quickly. The cases are filled with mouthwatering sweet and savory treats, from croissants, hand pies, cupcakes, to tarts, to macarons, to donut pops, and multiple rotating items. New introductions in the grab and go section I have tried today, and can vouch for! On today's list of goodies, I bought us, a potato skin hand pie- oh my. You will want more than one!! So incredibly good- it is like a twice baked potato, with bacon, cheese, chives and some sour cream on top of a croissant like crust. (I am not a baker so forgive me for my non technical terms))! I also bought a veggie hand pie, and a Fenway hand pie- sausage, peppers, and onions. Yum! The strawberry shortcake stuffed donut was to die for! It was devoured in less than 3 minutes by us. The homemade whipped cream is ridiculously good! I lied- I will also tell you about the trifles that I have bought on my past 2 weekends. The first weekend was a strawberry shortcake (?) trifle, and last weekend a blueberry cheesecake trifle. Oh. My. God. There went the diet. The whipped cream did me in. Lastly, I bought the chopped Italian salad with burrata. It is so good!! That was my dinner today, it was so filling, and oh, and the burrata with the hot pepper jam on it was just fantastic!! Seriously, I am so happy she moved to Plaistow! This place is AMAZING!!

    3 macarons; s'mores, ice cream sundae, watermelon. classic cannoli, no chocolate chips

    Finally got to try this bakery! I didn't know they had some savory dishes like, like chicken…read moreshwarma sandwiches and platters. I ordered the Chicken Killer, which has fries in it, garlic sauce, tomato, green olives, onions, rice, lettuce, and of course chicken! It was very good but I wish the garlic sauce was stronger. The falafel were awesome nice and fluffy! The croissant cube was better than expected- lots of cream and not dry at all! I also enjoyed the key lime danish and the little blueberry triompe! I thought it was interesting they also sold orange blossom yogurt and pomegranate yogurt! I got a cup of the pomegranate yogurt. Service was very nice - no place to eat there so make sure to take it to-go!

If you are on a diet, skip it. Please do not hold up the line taking picture near their amazing flower wall...it's pretty. We get it. If you drool at the sight of the most amazing creations, don't go. This place is amazing. I am happy to live close enough to stop whenever I want. I do love that they have notes or instructions near the register. The recent one was not to leave the trompe near you in the car, and to refrigerate it for 15 minutes before eating for that "crunch". I am sorry to have read that late, cause I ate that trompe before I got into the car. If you can, please come by this place. It is the best. I hope they stay small, because their food is always fresh. I went by today at 12, and their was a nice line. I would wait in line during a snow storm for their pasties.

Shipping was ridiculously fast (3 days)! Moreover -the kit is so cute and straightforward. All the ingredients are prepackaged with easy-to-read instructions.

Long story short - some issues arose with the billing from the credit card company's end. The first time - a helpful employee did everything he could to resolve the issue. Unfortunately, the issue returned and to my pleasant surprise - the Owner got involved this time and "nipped it in the bud." An A++ Business!

    I've been obsessed with scones/biscuits recently and one weekend morning, finding myself with no…read moreplans for once, I made the trek to Ipswich to Sandpiper, having heard that they had some of the best biscuits in the state. And, well, I won't keep you in suspense but that first bite of the salted honey butter and jam biscuit was transcendental. It was a little crumbly but so chewy and moist, and the jam and honey butter combo was incredible. Indescribable. They have so many pastry options, as well as breakfast sandwiches, but I really had eyes only for the biscuits. Also tried the cheddar scallion biscuit - amazing. I'm running out of adjectives to describe how good these were. The key for super flaky, tender biscuits is using very, very cold butter and not mixing the dough too much. It was cool to watch people baking in the back kitchen. Got the quiche as well. Tasty, with a nice mix of egg and veggies and cheese, with a well-made crust, but next time I would just get more biscuits. Lots of free parking spots in front and nearby. There's little space inside the store, which makes the queue a bit unwieldy, but it does move quickly and it's well worth the wait (and the drive).

The bakery items are the stars of the show, though their gluten free option was one sad small almond cookie. They have brewed coffee, no espresso. They use beans from Portland, ME. The walls are lined with gourmet food products--some local, some not. There is not a lot of space so when there's a queue, it's a mess.
