We tried the other items, they were good but, just not what I was in the mood for. They did have other pastries and cookies, I should've bought some of those! Bakery is small and pretty, street parking available, received great customer service!

No notes! Everything is spot on…read more The pastries are consistently fresh and genuinely some of the best I've had locally. If I had to come up with a complaint, it would only be that things sell out fast but honestly, that just speaks to how good everything is. You learn pretty quickly that if you want your favorites, you have to get there early. It's the kind of place where you can't really go wrong with anything you order...breakfast, lunch, pastries, freshly baked sourdough loaves, coffee. I've even gone to them with special occasion orders and they kill it every time! Clearly made with care.

I…read moreconsidered going to Whole Foods or Portos but I thought to give this local bakery a shot, especially according to the reviews, they have some good stuff! I came in around 5:30pm and was able to grab this chocolate ganache cake. I noticed that some of the other cakes were already taken which id assume means they're quite popular! The lady who helped me out was very kind and she was nice enough to take the time to write "happy birthday dad" on the cake thank you so much! We finally had the cake again few days later at my dad's birthday dinner and it was DELICIOUS! I honestly want to come back here and try some of their other cakes. They also have other pastries that you can come in and pick out too if you were craving anything sweet in the moment. This bakery is truly a sweet hole in the wall spot that I hope gets more recognition over time! Thank you again for the great service and delicious cake!

I was in the plaza going to another shop and I was intrigued by their window sign of vegan cakes…read moreand Turkish coffee. They also mention they offer gluten free cakes by request. I had to go in and see what this place was about! First off, the man who works there is super friendly. As soon as I walked in, he immediately started showing me everything they had in the store. He told me he was Egyptian and also knew how to say "thank you" in many other languages and proceeded to tell me. He was very charming. Extra star for the super service! There were many varieties of beautiful cakes and cupcakes (vegan and regular), however I didn't need a whole cake, and I didn't see individual slices for sale, so I passed on those. The gentleman had such happy vibes and such pride in his baking that I had to pick up a few things. He said he made the creme brulee and cannoli, so I got those. I also picked up something called a Konafa with custard, as well as a package of baklava. I looked up Konafa to see what it was made of (shredded phyllo dough), and discovered it was something Egyptians ate during Ramadan. How fitting...Today is the first day of Ramadan so I will celebrate in spirit! =) The crème brulee was pretty good, the cannoli was great! I wasn't really a fan of the baklava (it was too hard for me personally) or konafa as both were really dry and tasteless. I am used to baklava being syrupy and sticky and flaky. I feel like I've had konafa before and the shredded phyllo was yellow color and on the crispy side, rather than soft and white. I guess it depends on the style of what country makes it. I was given extra containers of syrup for them, he said in case I wanted it more sweet, but it didn't really help. I'll have to come back and give the cakes a try since it's mainly a cake shop. I'd love to try their gluten free cakes for my son. I'm not vegan, but for those of you who are, this is an option for you!

I found this page just by searching scones on Yelp and I am so grateful I found Stix and Scones!…read moreSuch a fun and cute name to begin with. Previous reviews were not exaggerating-- these really are the best scones I've ever tasted. I got it for a tea party and everyone LOVED them. I felt very confident having these at my party even before everyone tasted it. I seriously considered not bringing them to my party because I wanted it all to myself. They smelled so heavenly already coming out of the box. Lisa was so easy to order from and was so incredibly kind throughout. They even deliver straight to you. This made it so much easier for me especially since I had a million other things to prepare. I really can't stop raving about this whole experience. Lisa even gifted a dozen salted chocolate chip cookies as a thank you and those were the best cookies too. My fiancé is a Cookie Monster and even he said they were the best cookies he's ever had.

My favorite fact about this place is that Elvis…read morePresley himself used to order raspberry filled donuts from here and was a big fan, so anything good enough for the king is good enough for me. Open since 1972, this is definitely one of the most famous donut spots in a city famous for donuts. They also have a smaller location inside Grand Central Market in DTLA. This location is 24 hours, which is extremely cool, and they have a large free parking lot attached, so parking is very easy. The big selling point here is their high-quality donuts with great options, especially in comparison to other places. They're probably most famous for their peach or strawberry donut, but everything that we tried was delicious. I especially liked their maple bar and the PB&J donut. Pricing is extremely fair, staff was friendly, and these donuts are absolutely delicious. I would recommend to everyone.

Meh... Received a gift of macarons from More Sweets today…read moreand they were just ok. Besides the chocolate and churro macarons, the other flavors were so very mild that you had to really think about what you were eating. And to be honest, I had to look up the flavors on the website to even know what they were because I just couldn't tell. If you have ever heard the description of white claws, you know exactly what I'm saying... Now to be fair to More Sweets, maybe macarons are not their specialty. Maybe they get their high rating for cupcakes and/or wedding cakes. From just my experience with the macarons, I would not return to purchase anything else. There are way, way better options out there.

Thought it was a bit odd but now in days it seems like little spots do this. We came closer to 7 pm so they didn't have a lot of baked goodies but totally understandable. We did end up getting drinks and the drinks were delicious. The kind and lovely cashier told us that their drinks are good and that she'll be happy to see us back. Well she was right! We got the strawberry lemonade and the horchata coffee and they were delicious! We can't wait to come back at an earlier time to try the other baked goods.

Entering the small shop, I was immediately greeted by a friendly staff person. The entire shop is decorated with Latin themed decor and pictures of famous Latina women. There was a small selection of desserts. I was hoping that they sold slices of cakes so that I could sample them, but no luck. I picked up: Churro cheesecake Strawberry Ricotta cake Polvoron cookie White Chocolate Raspberry Muffin Chocolate Turtle Bundt slice Oreo Brownie Cafe de Olla latte Everything was good. It's so cute that they package the muffin in an individual bag, perfect for gifting .The chocolate turtle Bundt slice and churro cheesecake were my favorite. The bottled Cafe de Olla latte was AWESOME!! It comes from a place called The Brew House in La Puente. They also sell potted plants if you need some greenery with your desserts. I asked when the best time to come and get the biggest selection of items, and was told that Thursday afternoons after lunch would be best. I'll have to come back then and hope for more new things to try!

"Hi! It's me. Your sweet tooth. I know you've been on this health kick lately, and I get it; you…read moregotta keep us healthy. But hey, you know there's more than physical health, right? There's a little something called MENTAL HEALTH. This includes doing things that make you FEEL better. Sure, that 'runner's high' we get from time to time feels good, but, how about satisfying ME for a change? You on board? Ok, cool, cool. So, let's take a break from that health kick and reward ourselves with a little treat? I've found the perfect place." So, if your "sweet tooth" could talk, this is EXACTLY what they'd be saying about this bake shop. Seriously, there is NO BETTER place to satisfy your sweet tooth, and not a more deserving baker in the area which would be grateful for you stopping in and doing so. I've tried LOTS of goodies from this spot, and not ONE THING has disappointed me or my family. The only disappointment we feel, is when whatever sweets we picked up are all gone. Womp, womp. Also, let me let you in on a little secret. You aren't dealing with a run of the mill, let me start my own business dreamer. Nope, you've got a full on CHEF running this operation, who is a master at her craft, and the proof is most definitely in that pudding (I don't think I've ever seen her offer pudding, but like, if she did, the proof would be in it). In addition to the delicious treats on display, she takes custom cake orders, and let me tell you, if you think what is offered in store is good, just WAIT until you try one of her mind blowing cakes! So good. So decadent. So....ugh, just go buy one already. She made a nutella cake for my daughter's thirteenth birthday and it was freaking delicious.
