From those 6 we chose to do a lemon cupcake with blueberry preserves(my favorite), strawberry shortcake, a chocolate with white frosting, and a traditional white cake with white icing. Then we asked if the shop could do a small top tier cake for us to cut into and save for our anniversary. They had no issue with that at all. Dlites asked us the colors of the wedding so they could put special ribbon on the cupcake stand. Everyone loved the cupcakes! We had 85 people including ourselves, and we got 110 cupcakes. That was plenty and we had some to take home as well. A little pricey, but definitely worth it.

This review should have been posted a few weeks ago but my schedule didn't allow me to actually sit…read morestill to do so ...I wanted to ensure I had the time to truly explain how amazing my experience has been with this Company. To start, I live in Philly & my daughter was Penn State Altoona at the time & on 4/26/26 she turned 20yrs old and this was the first time I wasn't going to celebrating with her and being hands on with all the plans. But with the secret help of her College Friends I was able to plan an amazing Birthday weekend in state college for all of them to enjoy but the most stressful thing was find her the perfect Cake!! Her friends wanted to go to pick one up from a Supermarket but because I wasn't going to be there I wanted to make everything about her Bday super special and a market cake wasn't going to work unfortunately in addition they were college kids with no vehicles I didn't want to put that taste on them and it may or many not get done. I was now less then 2wks from her Bday weekend and just now starting the search for the perfect "I'm sorry Mommy couldn't be there but hopefully this amazingly crafted artwork now called your Bday Cake makes up for it" type of Cake. So my 3-4hrs long search begun..I needed to find a Bakery that could make her a cake that not only looked good but tastes even better (I have been disappointed in the past so my research was on the First 48 level, ...a bad cake can ruin entire Bday in my opinion. In addition, I needed discreet delivery services. After hours of searching, reading reviews & scanning every social media accounts as well as any and all websites that mentioned their names to ensure all T's were crossed and the reviews were actually verified by real people before choosing Dolce Vita Desserts. Their designs were all so creative & beautifully done and after emailing a few times with Anthony he not only confirmed my specific request but he also ensure that they could/would customize to design I preferred..so I took two Of their designs (because I loved them both and couldn't decide one over the other) and made it one :) I also explained to Anthony my need desperately need for delivery ..( their site mentioned how delivery was limited) I was willing to send it as uber package delivery even I was praying I wouldn't have to do that. But, Anthony not only approved my delivery he also advised me to touch bases with the Hotel staff and provide them with the box dimensions to ensure their fridge would be able fit/store and also gave specifics on how to properly store ...information I didn't even think to consider. I whole heartily appreciate all that Anthony has done to help make my daughter's Birthday super special. Everything was executed seamlessly, even down to the delivery confirmation email I received from Both Dolce & the Hotel. My daughter not only loved her surprise bday weekend but she was in love with her cake!! I ordered the 6" inch round white cake with strawberry preserves. I thought that since only my daughter & 3 of her friends were celebrating with her that they would take the left over cake to share with others at their dorm but she told me the cake was so good they devoured it. Not one crumb was left. Which was done after making a photo shoot with the cake! She loved everything about that cake! My only regret...is the fact that I wasn't able to try it myself! I recommend Dolce Vita Desserts to every one! You won't be disappointed!!

The icing is marshmallow which was so good and all the cakes were so moist. I also really like the whipped cream icing on the pumpkin cupcake.

The staff is charming and one of the bakers was shaping dough for fry pies by hand when we arrived. We learned that they only make donuts for the weekends. Fresh breads, cookies and apple dumplings were ready, however. We picked up a couple fry pies. Fry pies are handheld half-moon shaped crust filled with a fruit preserve. The crust on the fry pies was flakey with a delicious and light sugar glaze. The fillings were a perfect blend of tart and sweet. I had blackberry filling and my husband had the strawberry rhubarb pie. There is no on site seating for eating. I didn't see coffee available. This is strictly a bakery. Prices are reasonable. The bakery is well worth a visit and worth the drive. Note: the shop is a little further on the road than the Yelp map indicates.

From the artsy décor to the extensive menu to the helpful staff, this restaurant does not disappoint. If you're looking for sweet treats or savory bites, you'll turn to your left and enter the café, where you can peruse the wall menu for breakfast crepes, dessert crepes, savory crepes, salads, sandwiches and more. If you're in the mood for cocktails, you'll turn to your right and enter a beautifully appointed bar room with a prohibition-era vibe. After placing your food and drink orders, you can either dine downstairs in the bar room or café, or you can make your way upstairs to the spacious dining rooms and enjoy the ambiance of gothic chandeliers, ornate ceilings, antique furniture and an abundance of natural light. In warmer weather, you can even dine outside on the backyard patio. I ordered a veggie breakfast crepe with scrambled eggs, sliced avocado, mushrooms, heirloom tomatoes and spinach. The veggies were fresh and flavorful, and the eggs were just the right texture and consistency. I requested certain omissions (no cheese and no onions), which they were happy to accommodate. I appreciate that the staff are willing to cater to diners with dietary restrictions. They will do whatever they can to accommodate your preferences whenever possible. The staff were pleasant and professional; from the counter staff to the servers to the bussers, everyone was friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. Tables were quickly bussed and turned around for the next guests, the dining rooms were kept clean and spotless, the staff were attentive and accommodating, and the wait time was minimal. My only complaint is that drinks are not delivered to the table with your meal order. If you want a drink, you must go to the bar yourself to pick it up. Not a dealbreaker by any means, but tableside drink service would make the dining experience more convenient for the customer. All in all, Allegheny Creamery & Crepes is worth the visit if you ever find yourself in downtown Hollidaysburg. I highly recommend.

I went looking for peanut butter pie and somehow ended up rediscovering FRUITCAKE. On Halloween…read moreEve. Because apparently my food adventures have no rules anymore. I'd heard wonderful things about Beeman's Baked Goods in Carlisle, but their business-hour schedule had always made visiting a challenge. Then I got a craving. Not just any craving. A PEANUT BUTTER PIE craving. And considering approximately 63.8% of my personality is peanut butter, this situation required immediate attention! I rearranged my Friday afternoon and arrived around 3:15pm. Parking was plentiful, and I was the only customer when I walked inside. I immediately GASPED. HOMEMADE BAKED GOOD HEAVEN! Cakes, pies, whoopie pies, cookies and all kinds of delicious-looking treats! They also had milk, cheese, jams and other goodies. But I was a woman on a mission. PEANUT BUTTER PIE. I quickly found it in the refrigerator and was thrilled to discover they sold individual servings. And by "individual serving," I mean ONE QUARTER OF AN ENTIRE PIE. Bless these people! At $9.50, I had high expectations. I briefly considered buying an entire pie, but Responsible Adult Me prevailed. Quarter pie it was! With my precious peanut butter cargo secured, I wandered around contemplating a second treat. Chocolate cake with peanut butter icing? Chocolate peanut butter whoopie pie? And then something unexpected happened. FRUITCAKE. There it was, sitting near the window, practically GLISTENING in the afternoon sunshine. I hadn't eaten fruitcake in probably 20 years because nobody I know likes it. But I was spending Friday evening on my own, and suddenly I NEEDED fruitcake. FRUITCAKE?! Who even AM I?! Beeman's sells three sizes, so I grabbed the smallest for $5.50. Fifteen dollars later, I happily trotted out to my car with two desserts and absolutely no regrets. After dinner, it was time for the main event. THE PEANUT BUTTER PIE. I opened the container and immediately smelled peanut butter. STRONG peanut butter. Excellent sign! Then I took a bite. OH. MY. This may genuinely be one of the best peanut butter pies I've ever eaten. Rich, dense, perfectly sweet and absolutely PACKED with peanut butter flavor. None of that light, fluffy, vaguely peanut-butter-flavored nonsense. This was SERIOUS peanut butter pie! The crushed peanut butter cups on top were a fantastic finishing touch. Whatever brand they're using, I wholeheartedly approve. Remember those high expectations at $9.50? EXCEEDED. I'd have happily paid two or three times that amount. I've already decided I want one for my birthday in a few months. Future Birthday Me has officially made her dessert selection! Next came the fruitcake. I cautiously unwrapped my $5.50 impulse purchase, cut a test slice and took a bite. WELL, DANG! Apparently I've been depriving myself of fruitcake for TWENTY YEARS FOR NO GOOD REASON! Absolutely packed with walnuts and fruit, with just enough moist, flavorful cake to hold everything together. Less cake, more STUFF. Exactly how fruitcake should be! And who says fruitcake is just for Christmas? It was Halloween Eve, and I was living my best fruitcake life! I'm SO glad I finally made the trip. Their limited hours might prevent me from becoming a regular, but I'll absolutely be back for more peanut butter pie, fruitcake and eventually those tempting whoopie pies and cakes. PRO TIP: Check their hours before visiting! They're open Tuesday through Friday, 8am to 4pm, and Saturday, 8am to 2pm. And don't overlook those enormous individual pie servings! If you appreciate substantial, homemade baked goods, Beeman's is worth the trip. Nothing light or skimpy here. Just rich, dense, generously portioned deliciousness. As for me? I've found my birthday dessert AND rekindled a relationship with fruitcake.

Absolutely unacceptable. It's not what I remember. I was hoping to take the first bite and be brought back to the 90s, but it's not the same. This literally was a lemon meringue pie for $18. I will not buy anything else from this place again because it's not what I remember, it's not the same but it's the same culture of people so I don't know what happened but again I'm telling you if you're looking for something nostalgic, you're not gonna get it from here. I'm still on the search for that. Perfect lemon sponge pie.
