The service was very personable, and although it was a difficult cake for me to order, at an unpleasant time for us, they supported me in completing this task. I want to thank you for the outgoing communication @LilacCityBakery that you provided me. The phone order was taken with care and the delivery was eagerly done with a score of 10 out of 10 and even a text picture of the cake presentation. Lemon cake, with Buttercream frosting, filled with lemon curd and Sunflower theme! Absolutely Incredible!

I ordered the viral fruit cake from here by pre ordering online. I had a pick up time for Sunday at…read more4:30 but was able to pick it up a little early around 4 pm. The fruit cake came with 4, after tax it was around $50 for the four which was a bit pricey. But I wanted to try so I figured it was worth it. My favorite flavors were the Mango Coconut and the pistachio pomegranate. They had a delicious crunch and flavor. Each of the pastries were crunchy and satisfying to bite into. I also got a few macaroons to try. I got the pistachio and birthday cake. The birthday cake was fine but didn't taste like cake to me, but the pistachio had a delicious strong pistachio flavor. I definitely want to try the other desserts when I visit next time! They all looked so delicious.

The cake was moist and flavorful. I've gotten several cakes from Karen, and hers are the best! The frosting is amazing and not too rich. Fillings are always so good, and they are decorated beautifully. The more info you can give at the consult stage, the easier it is for her to make your dream cake happen. I've also gotten several party platters for different events from Fresh Today and they've always been a hit. They have a ton of experience in the food business and use that to your advantage. Communication is great and they are transparent with every detail which I love. The portions in the family meal options are perfect and feeds us well. Never disappointed and always impressed!

She delivered this ugly 2-later round brown cake that had a flat number decorations except a 75th birthday sign and fake blue and white small stringy flowers. For $451 dollars she could have gotten fresh flowers the frosting was un-chewable and the chocolate cake was dry and unflavored.

I placed a special order for cookies for my grandmothers 80th birthday that looked like enchiladas and she knocked it out of the park. They were so cute!! Not only is she a great artist but her cookies are very tasty. She has options to place orders online and then you can pick them up from her home and she has a little shelf she leaves the cookies on. They also come all packaged up like a gift. I definitely recommend you check her out.

Looking to get your donut fix on the South Hill? Well, look no further than Sweet Tooth. New to the…read moreneighborhood, Sweet Tooth's donuts are cakey with flavorful sticky frosting. Get here early because they do sell out of popular donuts; however, they continue to make donuts throughout the day. As other Yelpers have noted, donuts are a bit pricey (about $6/donut), but they are also pretty big donuts. You can get specialty coffees and tea here too. I ordered a cedar chai latte. I was told some people think there is cedar in the chai, but that's not why it's called that. It's the name of the tea company. The chai was really rich and worth stopping in for a visit on its own. There is also plenty of parking just off Grand Boulevard.

I love to see new places on Southhill and this location always seems to struggle. I was up for a…read moredoughnut so headed in to do a pickup. The owner was very kind and showed off the doughnuts and his coffee machine. It is clean and professional! Clearly looks like a nice product. The doughnuts look great! However please note it is about $6 a pastry. So this isn't a pick up a dozen. Also they are made with brioche dough. So they are heavier vs the soft puff one may be used too. In general they were good. I guess a more European take on a pastry. Not as sweet and probably better ingredients. They all ate a bit dry though. Not sure if this is by intent. It was good. But at $5-$6 a doughnut it should be dreamy I think. Would I go back. Maybe. I probably would prefer a maple bar from doughnut parade or fluffies or such. I want them to succeed and maybe the coffee will be their jam. The owner talked it up. And 1 doughnut may be ok. Also there is no sitting. This is a take and go operation. Clearly great people. I hope it works out. But the price and product was lacking for me. But go try them out!

Shawna brought drinks quickly and kept them refilled throughout. As soon as plates were emptied, a hand would swoop in and quietly remove it from the table.

Cooked as requested and the banana, caramel, & pecan French toast was a highlight. The restaurant was clean and all of the staff make you feel seen. Very friendly folks. This is well worth a stop.

My favorite so far is the Kickin' Chicken (chicken breast with cream cheese, melted cheddar cheese topped with gochujang and hot honey drizzle). There's a huge clean park across the restaurant that you can enjoy and walk off the calories. LOL! The ambience is inviting and seats are comfortable. There's indoor and outdoor seating available. Customer service is great and prompt. I'd like to return and try other crepes on the menu.
