Five star! Hallelujah! A proper bakery in The Villages and French, no less!!! Now we don't need…read moreto drive to the Equestrian Center for French pastries. How wonderful. The name is deceiving as they have pastries, breads and desserts. The decor is beyond lovely and inviting. Allegedly they were not allowed to open in Sumter because Panera and Starbucks are there. Villages planners, are you out of your mind to think those chain establishments are competition for proper pastries? Get your facts straight, you fools. This would be wonderful in Sumter too, if only the cupcakes on their own. As I write this they are in soft opening mode to figure out the traffic flow. We are blessed to have this patisserie here and I pray the Villagers (and outsiders) support this independent business. Those traveling by on I-75, this place is not too far off the exit for a quick stop to get fantastic products. A gem!

The red velvet cake is moist and tasty. The frosting is not overly sweet. The cookies and cream cheesecake is smooth and full of cookies. But the star of this delicious trio was the sweet potato pie. I believe it's one of the best I've tasted, and I have tasted quite a few. Try this place. We need to keep our local businesses and support them with our money!

The owners are a lovely young couple that gave some good recommendations on the menu. We took the cheesecake home to eat later and it was a great treat. We got a slice of strawberry and red velvet, both were wonderful. We highly recommend this new restaurant in town.

https://www.facebook.com/Cupcakeables…read more First off I met the owner of this little "at home" business at a Farmer's Market in Ocala Downtown. and OH MY GOD! These cupcakes are absolutely to die for! The best hands down that I've had in Ocala! She is an at home business run based on the cottage law, I think it's called. Her cupcakes seem a reasonable price. I've seen other cupcakes in the area go for like $2.50 a piece. I think that's a lot. Although Cupcakeables doesn't sell individual cupcakes ( you can buy 1 dozen of the regular sized cupcakes or 2 dozen mini cupcakes) if you do the math they are about $1.75 a piece for the regular cupcakes and $.75 a piece for the little ones. The cupcakes are nice and moist (not dry like some others I've tried in the area), and the icing is more buttery than sugary. I tried her Jake's Cakes, Strawberry Margarita and Chai Latte. The Jake's Cake are a must for chocolate lovers!! A chocolate cake filled with a creamy chocolate filling and then a chocolate frosting! It's heaven! Strawberry Margarita was cool looking! Strawberry cake with a lime frosting. Loved the colors and tasted like a real Strawberry Margarita. I understand she will put the tequila in if you request it! Score! And the Chai Latte was just like eating a Chai Latte! The spices were nice and not overpowering. I am ordering her Peanut Butter cupcakes for next week!! Can't wait as I am a peanut butter lover!! She fills them with a peanut butter truffle filling!! O...M...G!! All of her cupcakes are made to order. She has lots of flavors to choose from and especially encourages you to request a flavor you like if she doesn't have it on her list! I am a big advocate of small businesses!! Will definitely go back again!!! Her Facebook page is much more active than the blog I found. https://www.facebook.com/Cupcakeables

My friend went in to order sfogliatelle and a black and white cookie. He said the woman behind the counter was a bit impatient with him as he was looking at all the pastries and actually shook her head in frustration. I took one bite of the cookie and couldn't eat it. Both it and the sfogliatelle had a musty taste, though my friend said the inside of the shop didn't smell musty. I wanted to be one of the ones to rave about this place. Sadly, I cannot.

Everything inside was white and there was plenty of seating. There was a line when we arrived but they moved through it pretty quickly. We ended up getting a raspberry cheesecake, a chocolate-filled doughnut, and a blueberry cream cheese danish. Everything was fantastic! Definitely a spot I'd recommend stopping by after dinner if you're craving something sweet. There were so many things I wanted to try, so I'll definitely be back!

The birds best donut has Cadbury eggs on top and it is so delicious, as you can see I devoured half before the picture. The donuts are soft and fresh.
