I ordered the cinnamon roll center, and my niece got the strawberry cinnamon roll. I really wanted to love it, but unfortunately mine was very dry. It was crumbly to the point that my plastic fork was struggling to poke through it, which made it hard to enjoy. That being said, the service was absolutely incredible. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, and the bakery itself is adorable. It's such a cute bakery. They also have the cutest little play area for kids, which makes it feel really family-friendly. Even though the cinnamon roll didn't quite hit for me, I would still give this place another try if I'm ever back in the area. I really wanted to love it, and I'd be open to trying something different next time.

All of the bakery items are extremely fresh, homemade, and crave worthy! Something that I absolutely loved here is that the iced coffee has 4 shots of espresso.

One complaint I have is that croissants are always burnt. Never one time have they been cooked at the right level. They want to make sure the inside is cooked but the outside isn't golden it's always dark and over crispy. Today I had a scone but the ratio of toppings to dough was off a bit. Perhaps oven temperature? There isn't enough space for customers to maneuver and while they do have a microwave for you to heat up food that isn't heated through it's a cheapo Hamilton one from Walmart. It would make a big difference in customer service for them to upgrade to a higher wattage microwave that is maybe professional grade. Both for the staff behind the counter and the one available to customers. Simple fix that I think would help the line move quicker. Staff are always courteous and kind.

My favorite cake balls are the peanut butter, salted caramel, and the Italian cream. My favorite cookies are the macadamia white chocolate and the coconut pecan. I just discovered the coconut pecan and they are incredible! Don't expect me to share! But I will, lol. Next time your sweet tooth starts talking to you, this is the place!

Menu is quite small but looks good and reasonably priced for this kind of place. The variety of sweets ranged between $3 and $4 each. Macaroons looked really good. Got a cupcake and brownie.

We will be back to try lunch and review again. Happy Trails!

I wanted to give more than just an average Joe 3 stars just because of the cool specialty pie…read moreconcept (and cool name and play on words!). A friend and I just happened upon this shop because we were in the shopping plaza going to H&H Beverages (ABC liquor store). The pie shop itself happened to be closed but we discovered a self serve pie and goodie vending machine right outside the shop front entrance and wandered over to check it out. Pretty darn cool concept! The vending machine takes credit card payments and there were a lot of different pie options to choose from - so kudos to them for keeping a well stocked machine after hours. There are various pie slice flavors, 6" small whole pies and also what they call "pie-faits" (get it? a play on the word "parfait") - little dessert cups (basically deconstructed pies in a jar with a lid). I posted a bunch of pics and a couple vids so check them out. We ended up ordering 2 pie slices - Key Lime and Milk and Cookies. Prices for slices were a tad high but we figured what the heck, we'll splurge for fresh homemade pie. We liked the Key Lime pie slice - very tart, tangy and creamy. But we didn't like so much the Milk and Cookies pie slice - when we dug into it, it was mostly all pie crust and pie topping and not much actual pie filling - also was way too sweet (probably due to the slice being all crust and topping) - disappointing especially for how much we paid for the slice WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THE MILK AND COOKIES PIE. We peered through the front window into the shop - it looked quaint and basic - a tiny little place - an ordering counter, pie display case and a couple of tables and chairs. That was about it. Not really the kind of ambience that would cause me to stay, sit and eat there honestly. The shopping center was old and tired and seemed a bit run down with vacant shops and not much going on. From the main road (Rebecca Ln) you can't even see the shop signage so unless you knew about this place, you would never know it was here driving by (not even with their truck parked near the street) - which is unfortunate for them. In the end, bottom line, I don't think it's a place I would go out of my way to seek out or frequent. It was a cool novelty stop-in-and-try-once kind of place (and only because it caught our eye when we were at the liquor store) but given the high cost of a slice and not being absolutely blown away by what we ordered, not really worth a second look imo. :(
