I had a very disappointing experience today at Sweet Dreams Bakery on Orchard Lake Road in West…read moreBloomfield. When I walked in, I eventually said, "Hello," to get someone's attention. I understand employees may be busy, so that wasn't my concern. What bothered me was the customer service that followed. I asked for a small Berries Delight and pointed to the individual desserts on the left. Instead, the young man assisting me went to the cakes on the right and attempted to hand me a small cake. I politely stopped him and explained that I wanted the personal-sized Berries Delight on the left. He responded by saying, "Those are called slices," in a tone that came across as rude and condescending. I then asked if I could have a fresh one from the refrigerator because the one in the display case looked like it had been sitting there for a while. He insisted the display one was fine, but I repeated that I would prefer one from the refrigerator. He reluctantly got one and handed it to me, saying, "There's your fresh Berries Delight," in a sarcastic tone. I visit Sweet Dreams regularly--between this location and the previous one, I stop in about four times a month. I've always enjoyed your desserts, which is why this experience was so surprising. I've never been treated this way before. I hope this feedback is taken seriously because the quality of customer service should match the quality of your products.

It's off-season and I needed a raspberry tart to use for flavor cues for a client's launch of their new Raspberry Tart Wafer protein bar flavor. Due to a food allergy I didn't want to style the tart myself. I contacted a number of local bakeries as well as Plum Market, Whole Foods, Zingermans and more. None could accommodate my specific request. Finally, I came across sweet dreams and they were able to make me a beautiful raspberry tart to use for my images, based on the appearance, I wanted and in a timely manner. The location and store seem very nice too. And the pastry itself turned out great! Check out the images to see how pretty it was and how perfectly it worked.

A wonderful little bakery that is a bit off the beaten path in Southfield…read more The bakery is clean and simple, they have several tables and it was quiet during my visit. The bakery offers a smaller selection. I was there was an event, but was meeting friends later and so added some items. Everything I tried was great. The only issue I had was the chocolate was covered in cocoa powder that was a bit messy. The bumpy cake brownie was the standout, I will be back for another. I have a friend who does not like things to be too sweet, and so I got a raspberry rugelach, which she really liked. I also appreciated the items were very reasonably priced!

Excellent bakery owned and operated by a mother and daughter team. I have tried multiple deserts…read morethat they make where all of them were delicious and oh so tasty. My favorite dessert is the Rugelach which is very similar to the Polish Kolache ( crescent-shaped pastries filled with sweetened nuts or fruit preserves) which my family has during the Xmas and Thanksgiving holidays. Multiple fillings to choose from where all of them are good based on personal preference. Other favorites of mine include the Dubai Brownie, Pecan bars (If you love pecan desserts this is a must try), and their chocolate covered rice crispy treat (next level rice crispy treat). Relative to staff and environment, The owners themselves are very personable and very friendly as they are more than happy to explain their various desserts, many of them ethnic oriented. The shop itself is relatively small with a limited number of tables but definately a comfy clean environment. Definately a great place to go sit down and enjoy one of their desserts with a cup of their full bodied Joe. Overall, a business you should check out if you are in the area and have a hankering for something sweet. You will not be disappointed.

This process ended up being one of my favorite parts of the wedding planning process. She was very patient with me and husband and helped us create the perfect combination of flavors.

She was so fun to work with and answered all of our questions and was kind enough to let us borrow her cake platter/base. I asked my florist to set aside a few pieces for Gwen and she decorated the cake beautifully! I'll let the pictures speak for themselves :)

Despite the place being empty on Sunday morning, the staff still made so many mistakes with our order it was ridiculous. There is no cream/sugar/stirs station so every time you need something you have to ask. The coffee was good, so were the cider donuts, but that was it. The avocado toast has almost zero avocado, I couldn't taste it at all. The breakfast sandwich was made on a stale and reheated bagel from the bag. We were not impressed at all, and won't be back.

Last week on vacation I brought it up to my mother in law, then yesterday when I was visiting her. We decided to look to see if Adela's was still open, and it is! We got in the car immediately and came. We each got dolma, I got vegetarian and mom got beef. We got beef pies and spinach pies too which were packed with filling and absolutely delicious, my MIL said it was the best meat pie she had in her life. My husband devoured them. I was only interested in one thing, the dolma. I tasted it and it was absolutely perfect. Tart, a kick of spice, a tang and sweetness from the tomato, and the grape leaves are cooked perfectly they're a very nice bite and then they just melt in your mouth. I ordered a pound and a half around 2 pm yesterday, 24 hours later is has all been eaten. I can't wait to go back for my next fix, I certainly won't be waiting another 3+ years to have Adela's

Terrible customer service skills. I went in yesterday to buy a large quantity of desserts for a…read morechurch event. I asked the man behind the counter if there would be a discount if I bought the entire stock of one of the desserts in the display case (about three dozen). He went and got who I assumed was his wife, who wasn't happy to wait on me. She said the desserts were sold by the pound. (I had intended to purchase more than three dozen desserts and would have bought several dozen more desserts had their attitude been different.) I wanted the desserts that were in the display, so I asked what the cost was for all three dozen. The woman begrudgingly began to weigh them and told me it would be "$30 for all of them." I asked her if she would put them in a box for me. She again begrudgingly said that she could put them on a tray but that she would have to charge me for the tray. Never before have I been charged for a tray for a bakery item that I purchased. She ended up charging me $3.00 for the aluminum tray, stating that "trays are very expensive." I'm surprised that she didn't also charge me for the plastic cover. While I was there, another customer came in who happened to speak their language, and the couple was very polite to her and smiled and gladly helped her. I can only surmise that it was my blonde hair and blue eyes that they didn't like, or perhaps the fact that I didn't speak their language. I wasn't looking for a handout; merely to be treated fairly and with respect. If they don't want to treat all their customers fairly, they shouldn't be in business. I live in West Bloomfield, and I've never encountered this kind of treatment before by any shop proprietor. As I was leaving, I could hear the woman in the back room complaining to another employee about the fact that I had asked for a tray for the desserts that I purchased. I told her husband that she shouldn't be complaining about a customer who just made a purchase from their shop. I won't be returning to their bakery and from now on will go back to Sweet Dreams. Sweet Dreams at 4153 Orchard Lake Road is amazing, the desserts are out of this world, and the staff knows how to treat their customers. I wouldn't recommend that anyone give Adela's their business. By the way, my grandparents were immigrants from East Central Europe. They and my parents taught me better than to treat people the way these shop owners treated me.
