It's a new Puerto Rican bakery in the shopping plaza on the corner of Lithia Pinecrest and Lumsden…read moreRd. It's near the Wooden Spoon Diner. It's family owned and local to Brandon. They sell pastries, desserts, breads, sandwiches, and more. It's great that they are close to home. I absolutely love their guava & cheese quesitos. They are so delicious! I'm not usually a fan of this combination, but I love this particular version. Maybe because the cheese filling is sweeter. They also have strawberry and pineapple turnovers. I've only had the pineapple which I haven't seen in this area. It was great! The guava pastries are also a winner. I'd go back many more times just for these items alone. The mallorca wasn't my favorite. It's good, but it's more of a bread consistency than a sweet roll. The cheese and guava on top was very good. It was just too dense in my opinion. But hey, what do I know? I'm just a Puerto Rican gringa whose parents were born on the island. I'm guessing there are two different versions. The version that I know (and my mother loved) is the softer one that is more like a sweet roll. I've also had better ham & cheese mallorca sandwiches. However, I will try their other sandwiches and fritter appetizers for lunch one day. Other than that, everything else I've tried was wonderful. I love that the turnover and pastries are flaky and full of flavor, unlike some other bakeries. They are perfect! I do want to try the donuts and tornillos. I also want to try the breads. There will definitely be more visits, and very soon.

The puerto rican cake was pretty good. The service was friendly. I wanted to try their food but I…read morejust cannot justify $15 for lunch when there are various other local spots serving similar food for much less. It would be nice if they stayed open later but most of the establishments in this plaza seem to close early as well.

I went this weekend to try their cinnamon rolls and we were not disappointed. I was greeted warmly…read moreby Ken. I came in early afternoon so they had some cinnamon rolls available (frozen and a few non frozen). We walked into a beautiful little shed that had several baked items to choose from but we were there for the cinnamon rolls. He shared a pamphlet with how to reheat and store the cinnamon rolls. We bought a dozen and they were absolutely wonderful. My family enjoyed them. We will definitely be back. A must stop by if you're in the area.

Wingspread Farm in Valrico is a charming farm-to-table bakery that feels like a warm embrace from…read morethe countryside, offering fresh baked goods, farm-fresh eggs, and artisanal treats that celebrate simple, wholesome flavors. This family-run spot, led by Ken and Andi, delivers an inviting experience with its open-air chicken coop, vibrant fruit trees, and a cozy farmstand open Thursday through Sunday. With its standout cinnamon rolls, homemade jellies, and the option to pop in for a quick treat during the day, Wingspread Farm earns a solid five stars. The baked goods are the heart of the menu, crafted from scratch with natural ingredients and no preservatives. The cinnamon rolls are legendary, rich Danish pastry swirled with sweet cinnamon filling and topped with a creamy glaze that melts in your mouth, available fresh on Saturdays. Pecan sticky buns ooze with gooey caramel and crunchy nuts, while the rotating selection of cookies in flavors like chocolate chip or unique specialties keeps things exciting. The artisan bread lineup shines with French baguettes that are crusty outside and soft inside, plus Hungarian soft milk bread that's perfect for toasting. Farm-fresh eggs from uncaged chickens add a protein-packed touch, and the seasonal produce, like mangoes, guavas, limes, and avocados from on-site trees, brings the garden to your plate. Don't miss the homemade jams and jellies--guava strawberry or habanero mango varieties burst with authentic fruit flavors, made without chemicals for a pure, tangy spread. Savory options like Hungarian salami and fine cheeses round out the offerings, making it easy to build a picnic or charcuterie board. The value comes from the freshness and variety, with generous portions that feel indulgent yet approachable. You can swing by during the day for a single cinnamon roll or jar of jelly, ideal for a quick coffee break or snack run, with the farmstand's laid-back setup encouraging relaxed browsing. Compared to big-box bakeries, Wingspread's handmade quality and local sourcing make every item feel special without excess. They even have several options for those gluten intolerant like my wife and daughter. The service is personal and heartfelt, with Ken and Andi greeting visitors like old friends, sharing stories about their sustainable practices or the chickens roaming freely. They're quick to offer samples or tips on pairing bread with their jellies, creating a community vibe that's as nourishing as the food. The farm is clean and disability-friendly, with paved paths and covered seating for comfortable lingering, plus the joyful sight of chickens doing their thing adds a fun, kid-friendly element. Wingspread Farm is more than a bakery; it's a slice of rural joy in Valrico. Whether grabbing a quick pastry or stocking up on eggs and produce, the wholesome treats and welcoming spirit make every visit delightful. For its exceptional baked goods, fresh farm offerings, and genuine hospitality, Wingspread Farm gets five stars. It's a must-visit for anyone craving artisan flavors and a touch of farm life.

This place gets busy and can get a little hectic, but they always seem to keep the food moving out of the kitchen swiftly. I recently tried their Steak & Cheese Sandwich, and I'm a fan.

Inside was bright and clean and pink, with cute signs and decorations on all walls. We were immediately greeted and given the spiel since we had never been: cookies with or without frosting, cookie ice cream sandwich with flavors of your choosing, boxes of cookies, or just ice cream. I went with a sprinkle cookie with icing, and it was perfect. I love icing so sweet it makes me shudder, and makes my teeth feel like they are about to fall out, and this hit all those benchmarks. We were told that while the cookies are made in house, the ice cream is not; however, it is made by a local dairy (ice creamery?) and brought in fresh. Go here eat cookies be happy!

In my photos I numbered the $25.99 12 mini cookies with 1 being the best and 10 being the worst. I couldn't label the 11th cookie, but just look at the photo. I did order 2 chcolate chip cookies on the left side. I didn't try all of the cookies, but here is my ranking from best to worst: (Best) 1. Red Velvet - the icing is actually delicious 2. Birthday Cake 3. Peanut Butter 4. Pink Strawberry 5. Stuffed Oreo white chocolate 6. Stuffed Oreo milk chocolate 7. Turtle caramel chocolate 8. M&M 9. Sprinkle 10. Chocolate Chip (I ordered 2) 11. Snickerdoodle Overall, if I came back for cookies, only the top 2 were worth ordering. The brownie you should absolutely get. For any other style cookie, Bake N babes (especially chocolate chip) or Indy's cookies are the best you can get around Tampa Bay.

It came with rice, beans, and plantains, and the portion was really big for the price. I also got the natural soursop juice, which was really good and refreshing. I tried the Colombian tamal too, and it was HUGE! It came with rice and was very filling. We also got a sandwich with smashed fried plantains, an empanada for my little sister, and some pandebono. Everything was really good! My parents are from Colombia, so they really enjoyed this place and loved the Colombian food. The service was great, the atmosphere was nice, and it's a very family-friendly restaurant. Overall, we had a great experience.

I got the paisa, and when it came out, I was shocked with how much food it was. Definitely worth the money, and a friend of mine got the sampler as a main dish, and it was fantastic! My favorite was the blood sausage for sure! The service was kind, but I will say that there was a good amount of wait for the food. Honestly, I didn't mind it at all. The ambiance is more fancy than I expected but it was a pleasant surprise!
