Have finally learned to read the sign and showed up when they were open! 8:30am to 1:30pm …read more The inside is teeny tiny and has a few items for purchase but the main business is custom orders which fills up fast! I came here at 8:30am on a Friday morning to get some desserts. Got some at 9am and told myself I'll at least wait until lunch to break into it. I lasted all of 10 minutes before the chocolate cake started taunting me. So naturally I took a taste of the cake and the snicker doodle cookie, because being an adult means I can have sweets for breakfast. Both works of art! The chocolate cake is rich and moist and just melts in your mouth. There is vanilla icing and caramel sauce which really adds to the experience. I don't like caramel and even I was kicking my fingers. The snicker doodle cookie was also delicious and would purchase again because it was so cinnamony and perfect, but I'm a chocolate gal through and through. I'm taking on the challenge to not eat all of this before my guests arrive this evening - but I may fail and that's ok. Izzy is the only one working there and she is so lovely! She opened this space because she outgrew her home kitchen. Excited to keep trying the new flavors!

Hands down my favorite place in SOMA/Essex County

Ok. I love this place, and I've been a regular since day 1. But ther is one issue that I cannot…read moreignore. The lack of vegetarian items or vegetarian friendly pricing. Sure, I can just not get the side of bacon or sausage - but since those sides are $4-$5 - I wish they would adjust the pricing. Eggs, with no meat should not cost $20. They include the option to select no meat - but then charge you as if you got it anyway. If you get less food, especially an expensive item like meat, I should pay less. Anyway - I know - just don't eat there, and I generally don't anymore. But it's a shame and an easy fix to appeal to everyone. And an expensive proposition for non-meat eaters.
