They were all super tasty so it was difficult to decide, but in the end we went with a tier of red velvet with cream cheese frosting inside and a layer of pink champagne with butter cream frosting. I wanted a semi-naked cake, which she was easily able to do and she kindly took care of arranging the flowers on the cake and putting my cake topper on for me at the event. She delivered the cake by herself and was just the warmest, sweetest lady to work with. I would highly recommend her for a tasty cake for your special event.

The team was super friendly. I messaged a few days prior to pick up as I was coming from out of…read moretown and wanted to get an assortment of cupcakes for my girlfriends birthday. The staff was prompt in responses and provided a full menu I could pre order from (though my order was small enough that it wasn't required). I ended up picking up my cupcakes a few hours early and to my surprise they were ready! The cupcakes themselves were wonderful. Not these huge cupcakes that you see other speciality cupcake bakeries creating. These were classic size with wonderful flavors, some even completely reimagined. When I arrived for pick up I saw they had a new, special flavor- S'mores. I had to grab one of those too and I'm glad I did as it was the best cupcake of the assortment which a nice marshmallow surprise in the middle of the cupcake! Oh man, definitely worth the drive and worth the costs. I'd highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area. Luckily the shop is in a pretty nice area of Salem so you could even make a few hours of it and check out some of the other shops in the area.

She is so kind and accommodating, and we were able to try a lot of her cake flavors - which are absolutely DELICIOUS. Laura worked with us to make exactly what we wanted, and she delivered the cake all the way out to the coast on the day of our wedding. It looked so amazing and our guests raved about how delicious the cake was. I will definitely be utilizing Laura's services again in the future when I need a special occasion cake!

The cake was moist and flavorful with lots of blueberries. He loved his turnover. We each got a "ginger pig" for later. The pig wasn't as gingery as I have had in the past, but still had great texture and flavor. There is a Starbucks and a Dutch Brothers in the parking lot to complete your breakfast ensemble.

I ended up trying a BBQ pork kolache and Thai chicken salad. The kolache bun was great with a sweet and yeasty bread surrounding sweet and savory pork with barbecue sauce. I loved the salad - the flavor of the dressing was phenomenal. I also bought an iced chai with an added espresso shot - this was pretty standard but nothing to write home about. They also had a tiny cupcake as a sample when I came in which was a very fun surprise. Overall I don't have any complaints - I wasn't sure what the ambiance would be like but I would say this is more bakery/quick sit down then 'coffee shop' so while it had plenty of seating I probably wouldn't come here to work/read or hang out for a very extended length of time but would be perfect for a quick lunch, pick me up, or sweet treat :)
