    The Chocolate Hazelnut cake was amazing! It was like a chocolate flavored tiramisu. I would have given them 5 stars, but she didn't ask me if I was dinning in and so they put it in a plastic to go container and a bag. Which just felt kind of wasteful. Not sure if they don't have dine in plates and cutlery or not. But I wish they did. The price for the cake was reasonable, but the macaroons seemed a bit expensive.

    I took too long to visit this place! It's the best little unique dessert spot to get real bingsu (Korean snow cream parfait). I love the mango one and the red bean. The red bean has bits of mochi in it too. The texture is hard to describe, but it's super finely shaved snow cream that melts in the mouth so nicely. It's not coarse like snow cones. If you don't want bingsu, there's plenty of other options like blue bell ice cream, and lots of lovely cakes and macarons! The space is very nice to sit in and relax. It's so difficult to find such a unique spot for this type of ice cream, but a great option and so fun for everyone's taste! Strongly recommend!

    Milk Cake

    This is my favorite bakery for birthday cakes and occasions. Whenever I gift a cake I always get so much praise from the receiver! The service is efficient and they are so kind and accommodating. There are always many families enjoying the cafe. There's plenty of seating and spacious.

    Taro Cake slice (yum)

    We were craving some Asian desserts/flavors and I ended up fining this nearby place on Yelp. I wasn't expecting the sign coloring for this type of cafe, but it is large enough to notice from the road. It's at the end of a strip and there is plenty of parking. There was also plenty of seating with lots of space in between so you don't feel crowded. The inside was cutely decorated and clean. My friend and I ordered a slice of Taro Cake and a regular size Red Bean Bingsoo (also categorized here as Snow Cream Partfait) for dine-in. The Taro Cake slice (Taro Flavored Sponge Cake layered with Taro Extract, Purple Yam Spread and Taro Flavored Whipping Cream) was light, yummy, and not extremely sweet. The Red Bean Bingsoo was as described (i.e. filled with finely shaved sweetened milk and toped with Roasted Soybean Bean Powder, Mochi, Vanilla Ice Cream & Red Bean Paste). The order of ingredients didn't quite match the description as the bean powder was on top of the ice cream, but it didn't make a difference to me since you are supposed to eat everything together. The ice cream did taste a little different than I was expecting though. It was sweet, but not extremely sweet. They pack it in the cup, so scoop carefully in order to not loose any ingredients to the table or floor. Both were the perfect portions before we went back home for dinner. They both also satisfied our Asian dessert cravings. For the area, it was a decent Asian dessert place.

    Such a spacious, kid-friendly cafe! Ample seating and delicious treats available!! I really enjoyed my experience at Look Up. I brought my 2 year old and she loved it as well. It seems like a popular spot for parents to bring their kids since there were other families that came in right after us. I can attest that this is a great place to bring your kids, not just because of the desserts, but because there is comfortable seating available for families. There are couches and even a kids table! The staff members the day that we went were very attentive and gave us our entire order within 5 minutes. We ordered a lot. - Pistachio latte with soy milk - Passionfruit boba with soy milk - Slice of fruit cake - Vanilla cake snow cream - Macarons: birthday cake, ube/taro, and Oreo I really enjoyed my pistachio latte. I added a shot of espresso and it hit the spot. I only wish they had other milk options other than soy and whole. Hopefully in the near future they will! I didn't realize that the Passionfruit boba drink was going to have milk in it. We substituted it for soy milk but I definitely do not prefer milk with a Passionfruit flavor. That's just me. I didn't really like the drink but my daughter did. Lol. It was really sweet and you cannot adjust the sweetness unfortunately. As a personal preference, I would have wanted to adjust the sweetness. The desserts were amazing. I really enjoyed my slice of fruit cake. They are homemade and you can truly tell. The sponge of the cake.... Omg I am obsessed. So good! The snow cream was a refreshing option. I'd definitely get it again. I never had a snow cream before until the day we went! I loved the texture of it; I believe it was shaved ice. I could be wrong but I'm just going to call it that for now. And all of the additional things in our snow cream bowl paired perfectly with the shaved ice. The ube/taro macaron was really good!!! I didn't get to try the other two that we got because my daughter devoured them but based on her expressions, they were delicious. Haha. I'm definitely coming back here when I'm back in the area! I highly recommend to those looking for a new dessert spot to hang around at with the kids.

    I have passed this lil interesting shop so many times and always try to remind myself to stop by Well today despite the pouring rain and literal tornado warnings was the day I met a fellow yelper here for a little girl time She tried the red bean shaved ice which was delicious and authentic I had the fruit cake which was so moist and yummy with the most fresh mangos and thinly sliced strawberries in between the layers the cream melted in your mouth and it was a perfect level of sweetness I paired it with a hot pistachio latte since it was quite ick outside This was the perfect thing to cheer my insides up lol the latte was so good a perfect combination of sweet and nutty I will be returning just for this if nothing else Who am I kidding I want everything else hahaha every cake they had looked so good I could barely decide While in there they were so a customer that came in including one who ordered 8 cake slices you know it's good when somebody takes that many home I absolutely love love love the decor the selfie walls and the modern look to the seating including clear tables is really neat I have to say the staff are super sweet and very attentive as well This was the first of many visits

    The best fruit cake and boba in the area!! It's always fresh and so delicious. Definitely 10/10

    Taro Cake

    Had a need to satisfy my sweet tooth after a disappointing meal earlier today so a short drive brought me to "look up" cafe. Is a nice, large space, peaceful relaxing music playing in the background, eclectic decorations on the wall that invite you to take another look without overdoing it. I had the taro cake, I love everything taro. Cake was soft and moist. Not excessively sweet and the taro flavor was there without being overwhelming. Well done in my opinion. Service was appropriate, and the place is definitely nice to come enjoy a sweet treat, seat and relax for few minutes and enjoy some company. Would definitely come back if I am in the area and I would recommend to everyone to visit.

    Dessert is the BEST part of a meal so going to a dessert cafe after dinner is well...appropriate so I found myself heading to Look Up Dessert Cafe. It felt welcoming right when I walked in with the soft soothing music and clean chic decor. They had a variety of sweets but what caught my eye immediately was the cakes. They all looked delicious but I went with the Oreo cake. For being a chocolate cake, I didn't find it to be "too much". Just the right amount of sweetness. Look Up Dessert Cafe is the right place to satisfy your sweet tooth.

    Hidden Gem for Sweet Tooths & Pup Parents!…read more We visited House of Marmalade as part of the Hampton Roads Passport Series, and I am so glad we did -- I don't think I would've discovered this little gem otherwise! The shop is small and cozy with no indoor seating, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in charm and incredible sweets. The bakery case was absolutely stunning -- full of beautifully made cookies, macarons, and more. We tried three macarons (espresso, almond, and salted caramel), and every single one was perfection -- fresh, flavorful, and just the right size and sweetness. We also grabbed a shortbread cookie, which was buttery and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. And let's not forget our pup! Lexi got a pumpkin cupcake with peanut butter icing, topped with a tiny bone-shaped treat -- not only adorable, but she devoured it. Definitely pup-approved! The staff was fantastic -- super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. You can tell they care about their craft and their customers. Whether you're doing the Passport Tour or just looking for a place to grab something sweet, House of Marmalade is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back!

So to kill time waiting, I walked around to check out this place. It's a restaurant also offering Latin baked treats (donuts, cookies, etc). Then I saw in the refrigerated section what looked like flan in a plastic cup. I got one. So this review is purely for the flan. What's different is that they mixed gelatin with the egg custard so the texture is firmer. Not bad. There is another variety that even has different flavored gelatin bits in the flan. The place is clean, ambiance is lively with loud Latin music playing. Bright ambiance with natural lighting coming through floor to ceiling windows. The hostess:cashier is friendly. I looked at the menu over the counter and they serve what they call suchos which seems to be bread with marinated steak, spicy hotdog, chorizo with all the delicious toppings. I will definitely come back to try! But wait for it - though I didn't try anything for my tummy to enjoy, I left with my heart full. Because I waited so long for the door dash order, the hostess quietly filled a paper bag with a baked treat and handed it to me. I asked if it was part of the customer order, she said it was actually for me! Now that's a lot of heart and consideration. For that I give service 5 stars!

Everything looked lovely, it was hard to decide on what to get. She had also just made some fresh pastries. I decided on some ube pendesal, and as I'm a sucker for tiramisu I also asked for that. She offered the fresh pendesal as well, which I couldn't say no to, so I got that as well. She was overall very nice. I saw the empanadas in the corner, and I know I'm already gonna have to come back to try more. She told me how to keep the pendesal fresh, and I thanked her and went to my car to try the breads. The fresh pandesal was amazing. Fluffy, light, warm, soft, a little sweet, just so good. The ube one was a little heavier, and had a halaya and cream cheese filling, which I just loved. It would've been better warm, but I was hungry and wanted to try things. I waited til I got home to try to tiramisu, and oh my god that is some of the best tiramisu I've had in the area. I tried one at the farmers market by an Italian lady, and I think this one is better. It has good ratios of everything. It's not drowning in coffee, the cream is nice and sweet, and it isn't too mushy. This will now be my go-to spot for tiramisu for sure. I can't wait to come back and try more!

They always LOOK so delicious, fun and exciting! But...I have never in my life spit out a cupcake, or any kind of cake. I LOVE cake. First time trying them was a couple years ago, and they were unicorn-y looking, and sparkly, and gorgeous. But just not good. Thought I'd try them again 2 days ago and these 3 flavors: Ube, Strawberry (in case I didn't like the Ube), and Chocolate Cheesecake. The Ube was actually fine, and the best of the 3. But I still tossed half of it because it was so dry. SO dry, like sawdust. And sadly, I literally spit out the first bite of both the Strawberry and the Choc Cheesecake. Even drier than the Ube, but worse, they tasted...spoiled, if that's possible. Sadly, I only remembered to take a photo of the last one. I just don't understand! Most other reviews are so great! Maybe you have to order them fresh and not in a retail outlet. Or maybe the farm market gets them a week old or something... or the frosting is only good for one day. ?? Sad face.
