I should have only ordered the chicken pastry. I rarely eat butter anymore and all the butter in the pastry dough was too much! But it tasted very good.

Everything on display attracted my attention and all are decorated artistically. I tried a cookie and white chocolate and raspberry friand and both were fantastic.

Would love to come back and try some of the slices.

My partner needed to bring some snacks into work, so I figured I'd pick up some cookies and try out one of their famous buns. The building is a large cube with large windows flooding the space with light. There is a seating area as well as an extremely long wrap around counter that is filled to the brim with a carboholics-dream. From hot cross buns (raisins and craisins with warm butter on the inside of the soft chewy bun) and cinnamon rolls and rasberry buns to lolly loafs and cream puffs and cookies, this place could feed an army of hungry children. They have pre-packaged cookies (and other bars/loafs) for sale that are cheaper than ordering custom cookies (which you can do in store or on their website, which include custom cakes with photos or screen art) and come in bags of 7. I picked up some Afghan cookies, chocolate chip, one other packet and I am on a waiting list for the Belgium Biscuits when they arrive out of the oven. They design wedding cakes or other specialty cakes as well with many different cake flavors. Starve yourself for a couple of days, come fill up on Kidds and drift happily into a carbo-coma. A must-visit!
