It's truly a work of art, a conversation piece & will blow your friends & family mind. We had over 120 adults & around 15 kids. Everyone found something. We opted no nuts/shellfish due to allergies. Not pictured are a few desserts provided including vegan cookie dough dip (you will crave after trying) & truffle balls.

We found Lindsey by happenstance--thank goodness for Google! We were initially working with another…read morebaker to make cheesecakes for our wedding dessert and they unfortunately were not professional and left us hanging in the wind. Fear not, Sweets by Kash to the rescue!!! I called Lindsey up about 3.5 months out from our wedding date and explained everything. She did say that was not her specialty, but man she hit it out of the park! We were having a small wedding and wanted to have cheesecake as our "cake". We already had a sweets table and wanted to beef up the options for guests, as well as pay homage to our first date. Our first date was at the Cheesecake Factory and we thought it would be perfect for us. It was easy to set up a tasting. We chose to pick up the cheesecake from Lindsey and have a little date night at home and test it all out. The packaging was super cute and the decorations on top were beautiful. But the flavors, WOW! I think cheesecake is so underrated. It's rich and creamy and is such a great dessert. We devoured the tasting cheesecake in a few days LOL. Honestly, with how simple everything was to set up and get answers to our questions immediately, I knew we had someone good. But the flavors, MMMMMMMMM!!! We didn't even finish an entire piece and I knew Lindsey was the baker for us. We love to support local businesses as well, so in the end everything worked out. So we booked Sweets by Kash and had her deliver to our venue and set up the cheesecake for us. They were all so beautiful and we got so many compliments on the taste. We ordered chocolate chip cheesecake and Oreo, as well as a gluten free chocolate chip cheesecake. Our GF guests really appreciated being able to eat a dessert in its entirety and said it was outstanding. We opted to save the top so we could enjoy that deliciousness all weekend, but someone walked away with it sadly. I will absolutely placing an order so we can celebrate our wedding anniversary with our special cheesecake (and no, I will not be waiting an entire year, because that cheesecake is too dang good to wait!). Thank you Lindsey for being amazing to work with and I don't have the professional photos back yet, but if you zoom in on this one, you can see the lovely set up in the background.

Peterson's Bakery came as a recommendation to me for their amazing donuts. I stopped in on a…read moreSaturday mid morning and they were still fully stocked with donuts, cookies, danishes, breads, and other sweet treats. They also had premade holiday cookie platters, cakes, gingerbread houses and more. I got a bavarian cream filled donut and cinnamon sugar twist. Both were so soft, fresh, and delicious! I loved the thicker bavarian cream filling and their chocolate frosting. The two donuts were just over $4 which was a steal! The woman who helped us was very sweet and made me smile.

Rich and intense flavors. Top notch…read more I was in the area and some recommended checking it out. I'm not normally a fan of pastries or baked sweets in general. I got a box of assorted pastries to bring home and each one was incredible. My kids didn't like any of them... but ambrosia won me over. This is a refined place. The flavors are classic and textures are notable. Rich dark chocolate, real strawberry cream, flaky and intentionally packed with texture. No candy flavors or artificial stuff. Each item seemed like it was expertly crafted from a 150 year old recipe. This is a trek for me, and I'd happily make a morning trip to come here again.

I love that it is light, rich, but not overly sweet. I am a huge fan of chocolate mousse in cake and they have perfected it. And to top it off with the chocolate ganache... YUM! I told my husband it's probably the best birthday cake I've had and I hope he remembers that for next year. We also picked up some almond croissants and chocolate croissants and both were delish... to me they were a bit on the smaller side though. The cafe is really cute and clean with a sitting area. We came an hour before closing, so options were limited but they do have a big display case and would love to go back and check out what else they have to offer. I am a fan of flourless cake- so hoping to get to try a slice the next visit.

Honestly, I wish I could give them negative numbers because even one star is overrated. I can't speak for their regular menu, but I ordered a surprise bag on the TooGoodToGo app. Maybe I was wrong for assuming it would contain items from the day before, but what I received should not have been given away--let alone sold for any amount. It clearly had been sitting for at least a couple of days. What I received sent a clear message: they don't value their customers. It's profit over people. Why they would serve that crap is beyond my understanding. Honestly, it should have been trashed. It wasn't even palatable. I couldn't tell what the pastries were supposed to be. They were inedible by my standards, but I bit into two different pastries to give them the benefit of the doubt. They weren't just old and stale--they were bland and stingy on the filling. It was obvious they were several days past shelf life and likely not appetizing even when freshly baked. It honestly felt like the cashier just went in the back and threw a handful of old leftovers into a bag. My experience was 4 months ago, I waited and came back here to check out other reviews older and newer before changing mines just in case it was a one off situation. Unfortunately, it seems to be a consistent pattern. Needless to say, I won't be returning.

I'm not Hispanic so I was a little nervous going in since I didn't know what is what but she made me feel very welcome. It's self service, which I didn't realize at first, but is nice - you take a tray and tongs and put what you want on the tray and they box it up for you. Nice mix of Mexican pastries and baked goods. My dinner hosts (who are Mexican) said the desserts were the best they've ever had! I would definitely go back if in the area again.

My son and I stopped at Lots-a-Knot before heading to the Wauconda Library. It's conveniently located in downtown Wauconda and is right down the street from the library. (Hear that parents? Get yourself a delicious espresso and little snack) I loved the Samoa latte with coconut and caramel. I got a medium with an extra shot of espresso bringing the count up to 3. It was strong and not overly sweet - the perfect balance. I devoured the pistachio twist (this name may be wrong) and almond orange cookie! My son loved the strawberry and hazelnut cookies too! While I was there I learned a little about the place, everything is made there, including the bread, using recipes passed down from family. I loved everything we've tried and cannot wait to go back! This is a family owned local business that deserves way more hype and love!
