I stumbled upon this quaint shop a little over 2 1/2 years ago when I was searching for my 50th birthday cake and I received so many compliments on not only how pretty the cake was but how delicious the cake taste. And I've been ordering from Even dough ever since. These cakes aren't only beautifully crafted, but they are equally delicious!!! You WON'T Regret ordering from this bakery.

The service I received on a Friday, 10 minutes from closing time, was a bright spot to the day.

Good service is very difficult to find nowadays, so 'Even Dough' gets an A+ and I will return. ps) the secret garden latte is amazing!

"VERY hole-in-the-wall Middle Eastern patisserie"…read more This gives hole-in-the-wall new meaning. The location is in a strip-mall that's set back a ways from 55, so it's not really visible from the street at all. However, it's weirder than that-- you have to drive AROUND the strip mall to the back, past the various loading docks for other stores, and they you see this place is open just from the BACK of the strip mall. I heard the owner is Algerian, but there are many Palestinian references and flags around the shop, so if that's triggering, then know this in advance before coming in. Still, the place is brightly lit and airy, with tables to eat. They do custom cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts, but we just wanted to sample some sweets. Hours are funny-- just midday Friday through Sunday. We ordered a pecan brownie and a pistachio chocolate dish with kunafa (shredded Middle Eastern pastry), as well as a mocha coffee. The mocha coffee was rich and delicious, as expected. The pistachio chocolate dish with kunafa was to-die-for... SO delicious. Super thick and messy, as you'd hope it would be. And of course the pecan brownie was amazing. I will say the pastries are not "cheap". I got a single tahini chocolate chip cookie to go for a friend, and that was $4.50 for a modest sized cookie. The other dishes above were in the $6 range. But these are unusual custom-made dishes, so it's fair.

Yummy food! We enjoyed the couple things we had. Friendly service and clean. Will be back!!read more

Truly, these are the most delicious macarons I've ever tasted, and I've had way too many! These have a great bite to them, slightly chewy texture and the smoothest, TASTIEST filling ever. I tried the Bridgerton themed Early Grey one to the double chocolate and black sesame, my favorites are the nutella (not too sweet but tastes heavenly) and strawberries and cream. I think everyone in the rtp should try these at least once!! I know it's going to be the hostess gift I grab whenever I visit friends from now on.

We happen to arrive as they were taking freshly baked croissants out of the oven so we opted for one of those as well. I was impressed with both and would return if I'm in the area. I enjoyed the variety of flavors available to choose from in regards to the macrons. I selected a 6 pack and liked the birthday cake flavor and salted caramel the most. The croissant was quite delicious as well. The bakery is located downtown so you will have to find parking, that was the only inconvenient aspect of it. It wasn't busy when we arrived so I wonder if they would have more customers if it were located in a section with more foot traffic or easier parking. Overall we had a pleasant experience.

I've always received great service. Recently I went and got a chai latte which was pretty standard. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed by my chocolate eclair. The taste was good but the eclair shell was not fresh and did not taste light, airy, and delicately crisp to complement the cream.... I'll come again to try other pastries but will not be getting the eclair again.

However, the selection of baked goods and desserts was robust, and I found plenty of interest. Notably, their tough to spell name denotes a small chocolate cake with indulgent toppings. I also found a trendy Dubai chocolate dome (not wildly overpriced as such things often are), which was quite rich. Their breads are marked as vegan where applicable; obviously a lot of bread is vegan, but this is a helpful bit for some.
