It was explained to us the frosting is hard because cupcakes are refrigerated. Yeah, they should be, yet as seen in the video this was inedible. We drove over to Nugget market and their refrigerated cupcakes were moist, fresh, tasty and soft. Given Chipotle napkins and when I asked why they're using napkins from a nearby business, was just told "we're outta napkins". This is troubling and feels unsanitary to think we were handed someone's lunch leftovers. Promptly asked for a full refund which was provided, but only they called the owner.

I have a love hate relationship with Toffee. I love it. I hate that I am powerless against it and…read moreNo 12 step program nor ECT will cure me of my addiction to it. In the case of Crack'd its much much worse. The toffee is otherworldly and its impossible to put down. I only have experience with the Original Toffee. Its buttery crunchy taste with a slight smokiness and vanilla undertones is among the best I have tasted. The almonds help cut the sweetness and add a needed savor componenet to the whole affair. Its coupled with the semi sweet chocolate which for my palate is perfect. Full on milk chocolate would be too overwhelming IMHO. Its a small family run local business and has excellent customer service. They can be found locally at several grocery stores or at fairs and the like. Better yet they have a website that allows for super easy ordering. I'm not in the habit of making requests in reviews but I for one would love to see: Toffee with just the almonds Toffee with pistachios and lastly I throw down the gauntlet with some Honeycomb toffee!

I appreciated that they have latosse options. In addition to the sweet drinks and treats, they also have savory options. The vibe was great. They have great decor, cute music, great lighting, etc. They even have cute stickers for sale and a toy crane machine game. When you first come in there's the register and menu right away. Staff was also helpful with the menu. They seemed sweet and friendly too. If you read the bad reviews, I'd keep in mind that they're 3+ years old. Everyone has different experiences and for me, it was great. The only problem will be is not to come too much. There's so much to try.

The vanilla latte and berry crepe were absolutely delicious--both were perfectly made and full of flavor. I also really enjoyed the French onion soup, which was rich and comforting.

His attentiveness and thoughtfulness truly elevated the entire experience. It's rare to see that level of genuine care in customer service. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for both delicious treats and outstanding hospitality.

We noticed the mango and they said the mango paired well with their sticky rice. I had to pause. Sticky rice gelato?? I was definitely sold! So obviously we had to get the mango sorbet and sticky rice. We also got the mango and lemon meringue. Each cup came with a mini cone or a wafer and we picked a cone. The sticky rice and mango sorbet were like heaven. Literally heaven. I'm never in Folsom but I will need to come back for this flavor. The idea of making sticky rice into gelato was genius but then combining with mango was just next level. I will be dreaming of this flavor. We were enjoying it so much I never got to take pictures. That's when I know something is good. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. They were lots of regulars coming in and out. The store is also adorably decorated and clean. There's a good amount of seating inside. Again if we lived near by we would be here all the time!

Cia is deliziosa!…read more This charming petite shop has amazing customer service, and is the perfect gelateria. If you haven't been to Italy, these flavors will immediately transport your tastebuds to Italy. If you have been to Italy, this will immediately bring those memories back. The staff is incredibly helpful, super sweet, and really make the shop with their great personalities. Add in the best gelato around, and this is a must try for everyone. They have gelato bars that are dipped in chocolate. There is a limited number, and they definitely run out of flavors. This is a great thing because it's a testament to how delicious they're offering are. I missed out on the rum raisin, which I absolutely will be going back to get. Offer a variety of flavors that can be scooped into a cup or a cone, and they do have toppings, should you decide you want to make a traditional ice cream sundae so to speak. I was able to try several flavors, and quite frankly, they were all so tasty. It was difficult to really decide, and I ended up with the chocolate and cappuccino. Such a great flavor combo! The chocolate was decadent, rich, and the depth of the flavor was perfection. The cappuccino made me feel like I was back in Italy, sitting outside of a café, sipping a cappuccino to start my day. We also ordered a cup with mango and cookies and cream. Yes, it sounds like an odd combo, but somehow it just worked. The mango tastes just like the fruit. It's incredibly refreshing! The cookies and cream is very light and because it is authentically Italian it doesn't have that funky aftertaste that sometimes cookies and cream can. Everything is authentically Italian and authentically amazing! They are located in a shopping center, so there's plenty of free parking. There is seating both indoors and outdoors, Please add this wonderful place to your list of must tries for when you're in the Folsom area.

After a very disappointing high tea experience elsewhere, I really wanted to redeem the idea of…read moretreating my mom to a proper afternoon tea and Vampire Penguin High Tea absolutely delivered. From the moment we arrived, you could tell this was going to be different. Everything felt thoughtful and intentional. The food was genuinely delicious not just pretty to look at. The truffle egg sandwiches and ham and cheese were standouts, and they even made a lovely veggie option for my mom without hesitation. The tea itself was exactly what you hope for in a true high tea experience high-quality loose leaf teas with a great selection. You can really taste the difference. And the scones... finally, real scones. Paired with clotted cream, they were rich, soft, and just right. We also started with warm, crispy crumpets that were such a treat and honestly set the tone for the whole experience. What made it even better was knowing everything is baked and prepared fresh the same day. You can taste that care in every bite. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the whole afternoon feel even more special. If you're looking for a proper high tea experience that actually lives up to the idea this is it.

To order, you stand in line to order and then pay. Be patient as folks in front of you make their selections and ask questions. Yes, there are others that live in the universe besides you. What tricks me up each time are the ordering lines. I don't dine here often enough to commit all of that to memory. When in doubt, I recommend asking a staff member. The hamburger is always a favorite of mine. Big juicy burger patty. The brioche bun is toasted. Fresh fixings. Pricing isn't outrageous. The banana coconut pudding parfait is another go to for me. It's vegan and dairy free and all so delicious! On my last visit, I ordered the red wine braised short rib. It was reheated as all their hot entrees are pre-made. It was not as tender as I anticipated it to be. But it did have a nice flavor. The interior has a modern farmhouse look with a family friendly vibe. The wall to wall windows bring in a lot of light and relaxing views of the town center. The dining room has a lot of seating. There is also an outdoor patio. Since this is not sit down service, there isn't any pressure to rush your dining experience. Another tidbit is that they don't have restrooms on site; the public town center restrooms are located 'round the corner.

I ordered the combination plate with lemon chicken breast, macaroni and cheese, and the green garden mix. The portion size was generous for the price ($23.50), and the presentation was as inviting as ever. While the chicken had good citrus flavor, it leaned a bit dry. The mac and cheese had a great creamy texture, though it could have used a touch more seasoning (easily fixed with the salt and pepper provided). The real standout of the meal was the green garden mix -- a colorful medley of roasted kale, broccoli, zucchini, green beans, and cabbage that was perfectly caramelized and full of flavor. If you order one thing, make it this. Beyond the food, Selland's consistency is what keeps me coming back. It's reliable, welcoming, and always delivers quality. And don't even get me started on the dessert case -- the variety alone is worth the drive. A longtime favorite, and one that I'll happily continue to return to.
