How can a cookie be so perfect? It's like she put so much love and attention into each cookie. I've…read moregotten cookies from little Lana's a few times now and never once have I thought one flavor was just meh. They are ALL fantastic! I've picked up cookies from here couple times before and each time just gets better lol. This time she created an ube mooncake cookie with salted yolk. For an Asian, this combination sounded perfect and oh it definitely was! I also tried her butter pecan cookie which was equally divine! I would take her cookies over Crumbl any day! She is at the Loudoun farmers market or pickup in Chantilly! And she is super nice too!

I found their stand at the EatLoco Founders Market and tried a couple of samples and was amazed at the blast of flavor. We ordered a "petite bag" which comes with 4 cookies at $14+ tax - ube, banana nut bread, chocolate hazel, and pistachio (their OG cookie and one of their popular flavors). Each cookie had a super strong presence of their flavors - nothing "light" or "subtle" or "hints of". They pack a powerful punch which I found delightful. The cookies are moist and soft and apparently gluten free (they use almond flour)! Please get these away from me before I try every single one of their interesting and unique flavors and gain 20 pounds by next summer!

EXCELLENT MACARONS! The difference between an excellent macaron and an average macaron is huge,…read moreand unfortunately I've eaten way too many average macarons. The macarons from I Love Macarons are excellent!! I try to taste these delightful confections every chance I get. We are so fortunate in the WDC area to have access to the delightful confections from I Love Macarons. Not only are they beautiful, but these macarons are the freshest I've ever tasted. The fillings are smooth, fresh and light. The cookie is slightly chewy, easily giving way to the tender center. My mouth is watering just thinking about them! The company mail orders within the USA and are going to become my "go to" gift to send to my out of town friends and family. Don't hesitate to give them a try...they really are as good as it gets!

I finally bought something here after driving by for years!…read more I didn't take pics of the food because I ate it so fast. Food (5/5): We got an entire chocolate peanut butter pie and it was just amazing. It was so rich though, I could only eat a small slice in one sitting. It was a rich peanut butter filling inside and a luscious chocolate top. If you like peanut butter pie, you have to try this! I also got slices ($6 each) of their Quiche Lorraine, since I am a huge fan of quiche. Heated it up in the oven and it was just magical. Fluffy and creamy on the inside and had a perfectly made crust. Service (4/5): There aren't any prices on anything which is super annoying. However, the nice people in there said all the whole pies, including the cream pies and quiches, were only $30, which is a steal considering that pies at Wegmans or Whole Foods are that much, or more. Ambiance (3/5): Small crowded carry out place only.

Cute small shop that serves pie and other sweet treats!…read more I think the pie slices were about $6.99 each? The coconut cream pie was creamy and had a good amount of coconut flavor. The banana cream pie was nice too and was slightly less sweet than the coconut cream pie. The pie crust was flaky and perfectly cooked. The taste was pretty classic. I can't speak for the other pie flavors but neither were too remarkable to me. Check out was quick! I think I was in there for less than 5 minutes. Kinda felt awkward in there since music wasn't playing and it was pretty quiet but that's probably just me. Overall, I think a nice spot to check out if you are in the area!

The cheesecake was also packaged very nicely. I had trouble deciding on a flavor but luckily I'll be back for more. If you can't make up your mind, you can do a platter or mini cheesecakes. There's so many unique and traditional flavors-truly something for everyone. I was not disappointed and it definitely brightened my sister's day. This is also the type of cheesecake where you can cut yourself a big slice and not feel guilty because it's so good. The cardamom in the rasgulla was amazing and you can tell there are quality ingredients in the cheesecake. Can't wait to try other flavors!

We've been a number of times and I just realized I hadn't left a review…read more I was turned on to the bakery with a recommendation about their kouign amann. Apparently it's popular, so you either need to go early or luck out. The cream puffs and cookies are great, but I finally got a kouign amann. It's a lovely pastry. The sugar/thin layer of caramel on the top is substantial without being too thick. Just enough to hold and break apart. The laminated dough is nice as well. Not overly buttery, but still light and fluffy.

THEY FORGOT TO BAKE MY WEDDING CAKE. And 4 weeks later, still have not provided me a full refund,…read moreeven after promising to do so. Countless email exchanges and multiple texts have been made between myself and the owner, Dennis Stanley, and still I find myself not financially whole. The least they can do is return what I paid. As I will never be truly whole.. for the wedding cake was what I was looking forward to the most, and the realization it would not be coming left me in tears. To do this to a bride and then have her continuously email for restitution and provide TERRIBLE communication is a truly awful thing to do. ***DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS*** And in general, their communication is terrible. They don't answer the phone and you have to email 2 or 3 times before they respond. Weddings are already expensive and stressful -- do yourself a favor and don't add to it by using Chantel's Bakery. EDIT AFTER OWNER COMMENT: Chantel's Bakery never reached out to me after the credit card did not go through. Actually, the opposite. I emailed Chantel's two days after the in-person meeting informing them that my credit card had not been charged and asked when it would be. I NEVER RECEIVED A RESPONSE. It was not until the morning of my wedding did I receive a PayPal invoice, in which was paid within 3 hours of receipt. Maybe a planner would have been helpful in completing additional follow-ups with the business WHICH IS CLEARLY REQUIRED, so that I didn't have to be the one to realize the cake was missing. However, a business should establish some sort of organization that would allow them not to forget an order IN THE FIRST PLACE. The sad fact is that Dennis told me that the error should have never happened it was entirely their fault and he would provide a FULL REFUND which he has failed to do. They may not have time to complete your order or follow through on promises made, but they sure do have time to falsely respond to negative reviews. Again, I repeat DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS.

The Yelp event gave me an opportunity to try their popsicles, so this time around I tried their gelato. I tried the Chocolate Hazelnut Crunch and the Cookie Monster flavors. They were delicious! The chocolate hazelnut crunch could be too sweet for some people, but it was pretty good to me. The Cookie Monster flavor was just a perfect combo. They gave a pretty hearty portion size, too, which is awesome! The staff were really friendly and patient while I asked for samples and recommendations. There were a few people waiting behind me so I tried to hurry, but I never felt pressured by the staff. I would definitely keep coming back when I have cravings! Definitely recommend.
