The cake is unique, fairly light and not overly sweet. It is a Mexican favorite. I called and left a message for Mary. She returned my call promptly and was very helpful. On birthday afternoon, Mary delivered the cake right to my door. The attendees of the birthday soiree and of course, the birthday boy, loved the cake. I ended up with more cake than I needed but I was able to drum up volunteers who were happy to take a few slices off my hands. Unfortunately two of my friends have lactose related issues and were unable to enjoy this milky delight. This is one special cake baked by one special lady. Why bake when Mary can do it for you. Enjoy!

Persian Saffron - Persian saffron-infused white chocolate ganache, encased in dark chocolate. Hazelnut Praline - Milk chocolate & hazelnut praline blended with crispy croquant, encased in dark chocolate.

Cookies & Cream Milkshake Cookie: Crumbl's official description for this cookie is " A chilly…read morecookies & cream milkshake-inspired cookie bursting with OREO® cookie pieces from the base to the creamy vanilla buttercream and finished with a mini-OREO® cookie." Based on looks, I would say that's pretty accurate. Like most of the other cookies I've had from Crumbl it's thinner at the periphery, but towards the center it's dense, thick, and chewy. The flavor of the actual cookie is primarily a combination of butter, vanilla, and sugar. Initially I wasn't getting any OREO flavor, but eventually I found it. There are pockets of OREO baked into the cookie and when encountered, they lend a welcoming chocolate flavor that helps balance out the buttery vanilla flavor and sweetness of the rest of the cookie. Combined with the creamy vanilla frosting, I did get OREO milkshake vibes. Lastly is the mini-OREO gracing the top center of the cookie. It's 100% for aesthetics as it really only impacts a single bite. Personally, I think I would have preferred if Crumbl added crushed up OREO pieces to the entire surface instead of just one mini-OREO, but that's just me. Nitpickings aside, this is another delicious offering from Crumbl that's Doughboy approved My Top Crumbl Cookies: 1. Caramel Popcorn 2. Blue Monster 3. Birthday Cake 4. Snickerdoodle 5.

When my nephew decided to get married he and his fiance were ready. They knew it was the right…read morething to do, so why wait? In planning the wedding in a short seven weeks and in an effort to limit expenses he and his bride chose to forego a wedding cake. Having planned my own wedding I knew how important a cake was and didn't want them to have any regrets. So the uncles decided we were going to surprise them with a cake. The thing is, we learned this little detail just two weeks before the wedding. I live in Los Angeles. The wedding was in Monticello, Wisconsin which presents some logistical issues on top of having just under two weeks to make a cake happen. After a quick Google search I found Sweet Street Bakery. Enter Julie Winkelman. I placed a call to Julie and explained the situation. She was excited to help us with the surprise wedding cake, despite the short notice. During our conversation I told Julie how I would like the cake to look and chose a traditional wedding cake for the top tier, lemon cake with raspberry filling for the middle tier and cappuccino fudge chocolate for the bottom tier. This was all to be covered with a beautiful white butter cream icing with piped scroll details to be slightly different on each tier with the a monogrammed letter L on the middle tier. Mind you, this was all done over the telephone without benefit photos, only the picture I had in my head. Julie and the staff knocked this out of the park. The cake exceeded all expectations, both in looks and in taste. It was just what I pictured in my head and everyone tier was moist and delicious. But most importantly, the bride and groom were truly surprised and overjoyed. The cake was the final detail to make their special day perfect. And as an added benefit, Julie told them to call her a couple weeks before their first anniversary and she would bake them a small cake to celebrate. Saying thank you doesn't express how much we all appreciate what Julie and her bakers did for our nephew and his bride on their wedding day. I highly recommend Sweet Street. (I am posting a photo of the cake. I provided the cake topper so if it seems large for the cake, that's on me.)

They also have a window where you can see the chocolate factory! They offered free samples of a jelly filled chocolate, which was tasty! The quality of the chocolate is very high and worth the price, in my opinion. I asked the employee for her recommendations and she was very helpful with that, as well as with explaining what some of the flavors were. There is also a list on the wall that explains their flavors in detail, and that list comes with each box as well. I opted for the machu picchu which is a year round flavor and the blood orange caramel, which is seasonal. These chocolates are just so tasty and I really recommend this place for a quick chocolate fix, and they'd also make great gifts!

I don't generally like wild combinations of flavors, but they had an Oreo ice cream that I just couldn't resist. It was incredible - not just some vanilla ice cream with Oreos in it... this felt like the actual creamy ice cream part was also Oreo flavor loaded. I could have eaten the whole tub by myself. The staff person there was very nice. I saw on their menu that they can also make some boozy ice cream concoctions, which is always a fun option so hopefully I'll be back to sample some of that goodness. The spoons also changed colors when it contacted the cold ice cream, so that was super fun. They also had a food/cafe menu if you want a meal with your ice cream!
