The name is deceiving as they have pastries, breads and desserts. The decor is beyond lovely and inviting. Allegedly they were not allowed to open in Sumter because Panera and Starbucks are there. Villages planners, are you out of your mind to think those chain establishments are competition for proper pastries? Get your facts straight, you fools. This would be wonderful in Sumter too, if only the cupcakes on their own. As I write this they are in soft opening mode to figure out the traffic flow. We are blessed to have this patisserie here and I pray the Villagers (and outsiders) support this independent business. Those traveling by on I-75, this place is not too far off the exit for a quick stop to get fantastic products. A gem!

The staff were super sweet and I decided to get a treat and ordered my matcha. The instant I saw the matcha I should have just left it there. Pale, sad, barely there green. I ordered the fall harvest flavor and legit tasted like cotton candy!? It was overwhelmingly sweet and tasted so bad after a few sips to even figure out what the heck this taste was, I chucked it in the trash. It's crazy to me I'd rather waste my money than to go back and have them remake or tell them how awful it was because I feel bad. I honestly should have just asked how their matcha was sourced and or made in a latte and I probably wouldn't have gotten it. We also got a strawberry cupcake- the actual cake part was so dense - it was awful- taste and texture wise. The pumpkin cupcake and the peanut butter marshmallow sandwich was ok. But to spend over $20 and to not even eat or drink what I just bought- to me is very disappointing.

https://www.facebook.com/Cupcakeables…read more First off I met the owner of this little "at home" business at a Farmer's Market in Ocala Downtown. and OH MY GOD! These cupcakes are absolutely to die for! The best hands down that I've had in Ocala! She is an at home business run based on the cottage law, I think it's called. Her cupcakes seem a reasonable price. I've seen other cupcakes in the area go for like $2.50 a piece. I think that's a lot. Although Cupcakeables doesn't sell individual cupcakes ( you can buy 1 dozen of the regular sized cupcakes or 2 dozen mini cupcakes) if you do the math they are about $1.75 a piece for the regular cupcakes and $.75 a piece for the little ones. The cupcakes are nice and moist (not dry like some others I've tried in the area), and the icing is more buttery than sugary. I tried her Jake's Cakes, Strawberry Margarita and Chai Latte. The Jake's Cake are a must for chocolate lovers!! A chocolate cake filled with a creamy chocolate filling and then a chocolate frosting! It's heaven! Strawberry Margarita was cool looking! Strawberry cake with a lime frosting. Loved the colors and tasted like a real Strawberry Margarita. I understand she will put the tequila in if you request it! Score! And the Chai Latte was just like eating a Chai Latte! The spices were nice and not overpowering. I am ordering her Peanut Butter cupcakes for next week!! Can't wait as I am a peanut butter lover!! She fills them with a peanut butter truffle filling!! O...M...G!! All of her cupcakes are made to order. She has lots of flavors to choose from and especially encourages you to request a flavor you like if she doesn't have it on her list! I am a big advocate of small businesses!! Will definitely go back again!!! Her Facebook page is much more active than the blog I found. https://www.facebook.com/Cupcakeables

There are "To Die for" Cakes and Pies, pastries, cookie and sweet bars, & cupcakes. They also have sandwiches, drinks, and salads for a light lunch. They offer afternoon tea on Saturdays, and they also bake full size cakes that you can order for special occasions. This is ultimately the cutest sweet shop which such character. We have tried their red velvet cake, lemon pineapple coconut cake, and the banana split cake. I have also purchased a mix for the salad dressing and bought some Charleston tea here. My suggestion is to get brunch/lunch two doors down at Miz Kathi's Cotillion Southern Café and then save room for the best dessert experience in the area. Wildwood is a very quaint town, but there are cute shops in the area such as Adorn on Main, and Roosters on Oxford. This is close to The Villages and not too far away from Mount Dora. Definitely a fun day trip!!!!

Betty Cakes Cafe, located inside the Your Hearts Desire gift shop in Ocala, is a charming bakery…read moreand café that pays homage to its founder, Miss Betty Williamson. The café offers a variety of lunch options, including quiche, soup, chicken salad, and deli sandwiches. My review, however, is based solely on Betty Cakes' cakes, as I've only stopped in for takeout desserts and haven't yet had the opportunity to sit down and enjoy lunch and cake at the café. Over the years, I've tried several of their specialty cake flavors, including Easter Dirt, Strawberry Shortcake, and Guava, as well as their Bundt cakes such as Sour Cream Pound, German Chocolate Rum, Hummingbird, and Pumpkin. Every one of them has been delicious. What I appreciate most is that these cakes don't just taste wonderful--they look special. Each slice appears to have been made with care and attention to detail. They're the kind of desserts that make you feel like you're treating yourself to something truly special, as if that slice of cake was made just for you. The cakes are consistently moist, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether it's a seasonal specialty cake or one of their Bundt cakes during the holidays, I've found myself returning again and again. In fact, I've made it a tradition to stop by for their specialty and holiday cakes throughout the year. There are plenty of places to buy dessert, but Betty Cakes creates cakes that are both tasty and memorable. The quality, presentation, and homemade touch keep me coming back. That's why I continue to be a loyal returning customer. If you're looking for a dessert that looks as good as it tastes, Betty Cakes Cafe is definitely worth a visit.

The staff is very friendly and every cupcake that I tried over three visits taste delicious. On my most recent stop I purchased three flavors...chocolate, limoncello and cookies and cream. The limoncello was supposed to be a 21 and over purchase but I did not taste any liquor. It was more like a regular lemon cupcake. The lemon flavor cake was well balanced with the light sweetness of the frosting. I also loved the regular chocolate and cookies & cream. Each cupcake is moist and the frosting is not overly sweet.

We recently ordered our 3 tiered wedding cake from them…read more(each tier was a different flavor), the cake and fillings was amazing and the best I've ever had. I truly wished I lived in Mount Dora as I would use them for all my events. We had Strawberry Champagne, Chocolate Praline, and Coconut Caramel...everything was so delicious. I am also happy that they offer a deal to purchase a cake from them on your one year anniversary, it gave us the opportunity to offer all flavors to guest and we in turn will get a freshly made cake. We are looking forward to coming back to this amazing baker. Le Petit was very accommodating to us for our tasting since we were a destination wedding and our time during wedding things were limited to our visits made to the area, the tasting went so smoothly and they truly made it hard to narrow down to only 3 flavors since all of them tasted great. Thank you Le Petit for the cake of our dreams.
