I've been obsessed with scones/biscuits recently and one weekend morning, finding myself with no…read moreplans for once, I made the trek to Ipswich to Sandpiper, having heard that they had some of the best biscuits in the state. And, well, I won't keep you in suspense but that first bite of the salted honey butter and jam biscuit was transcendental. It was a little crumbly but so chewy and moist, and the jam and honey butter combo was incredible. Indescribable. They have so many pastry options, as well as breakfast sandwiches, but I really had eyes only for the biscuits. Also tried the cheddar scallion biscuit - amazing. I'm running out of adjectives to describe how good these were. The key for super flaky, tender biscuits is using very, very cold butter and not mixing the dough too much. It was cool to watch people baking in the back kitchen. Got the quiche as well. Tasty, with a nice mix of egg and veggies and cheese, with a well-made crust, but next time I would just get more biscuits. Lots of free parking spots in front and nearby. There's little space inside the store, which makes the queue a bit unwieldy, but it does move quickly and it's well worth the wait (and the drive).

Its proprietor, Barbara Smith, is not just a baker -- she is an artist. I was blown away by the exquisite white whale she sculpted from fondant, its graceful tail arched in a frothy ocean of deep blue and teal green. The cake looked so delicate, yet it was so well constructed, it survived a five-hour car trip from her shop in Manchester, MA, to New York City, and it was absolutely moist and fresh and delicious two days later when we served it. It was a mocha cake with white chocolate buttercream filling, wrapped entirely in fondant. This place is an amazing find.

I did notice they also had a refrigerated section with prepared foods like pastitsio and moussaka. It's a small shop, but very clean and has very interesting food at every corner. Everything was very fairly priced. The baklava is la carte. I got a small assortment of about 7 small-medium sized pieces of baklava and my total came to under $20. The girl behind the counter assured me that the majority of what I bought stays fresh for weeks or even months and she gave me storage tips for the custard I purchased. I will def be back!

Service was friendly and prompt. It looked like food is served from another window and drinks are ready at the end of the counter. Looking at the display of treats, so many things looked so good! But as we can't try them all in one visit, we ordered two of the Citrus Blueberry Corn Slices and two Sticky Bun Lattes (iced and hot). Those corn slices I can write home about. Or better yet, post about it on Yelp! They were moist and not crumbly, the blueberries added an extra pop of juicy flavor and paired so well. It was the perfect snack. The Sticky Bun Lattes were a great warm up for the opposing grey rain sky. Sweet hot caffeine, is there anything better?

Drinks and ice cream are also available, I ordered a Nutty Buddy fattie and it was warm and delicious! I did have 1/2 and saved some for the next day but I think it's best when it's warm (as all cookies are!). I would've loved it if they had more than three flavors to choose from since they also offer cookies by the dozen, and it would be more fun to have a bigger variety in your box, but regardless, what they do have to offer is yummy.

The inside is on the smaller side, but they do have an outdoor patio with some tables. They change out the cookies on a rotation, so new cookies are always popping up. We ordered the trio that included the cookies shown in the picture. There was an assembly line of bakers cooking up batch after batch of cookies behind the counter. There was a warmer that had boxes of cookies ready to go. The cookies were similar to Crumbl Cookie, but I feel these are a step above. That are a bit smaller than Crumbl, but I think they were better in consistency and taste. My daughter got the chocolate soft serve, but it wasn't the traditional milky soft serve. It wasn't bad, but wasn't incredible either. Stop in for a taste!
