Blackhole bakery is worth the hype and worth showing up early for. They know what they're doing and…read morethey do it well. What appears to be a mom and pop bakery is actually a baker who has carefully done his research and brings himself up to date on the latest trends of flavor in the baking world. The vibes are amazing - I especially love the art piece on the wall he commissioned from a local artist. I saw the Instagram page with several posts explaining how he did each part. Everything was absolutely delicious (I am biased with the ham and gruyere cheese since that is a favorite combo of mine), the danish was delicious (I could tell maybe it uses veryberryosa - a recent trend in baking to be used as filling), and the same was probably on the cinnamon roll looking crossaint. Now the grand prize - the mochi donuts were spectacular. The flavors I got were raspberry almond (my #1 favorite I got twice), cereal (this was carefully curated and not too sweet like most cereal based baked goods), Irish coffee (didn't taste like coffee, gave it to a friend) and the mango black tea was also a slam dunk for me. The staff are incredibly friendly here which is a huge plus!

My latte was amazing! I came here from Olathe because I saw promotions about the Birthday Cake…read morelatte, however I got the iced Bramble Latte instead. The birthday cake one is premade, meaning you can't customize it (if you prefer fresh, bold espresso, I wouldn't recommend the birthday cake. It's very light/milky). It was OUTSTANDING! The cold foam balances out the bold espresso with a sweet, delicate blackberry flavor. I used to love going to Monarch before it closed, and this is the closest flavor I've found. As for bakery items, we had the orange cinnamon roll and a normal cinnamon roll and they were good as well. They have a fluffy bread texture and the frosting isn't too sweet. Also, some use this place to study, so if you are looking for somewhere with outdoor seating for personal work, this is a great place.

I got the giant chocolate chip cookie, it did look very different from any cookie I have ever eaten . Costed $7 approx and the cookie is big enough to have as breakfast ha ha. The lady at the counter was very sweet and patient and she explained that the Brazilian Brigadeiro are actually the fudgy chocolaty round confection and there is a specific recipe and method to make it. They do carry plenty flavors modernizing the traditional dessert - nice ! It was store closing time so they had about 10 versions but she said normally she has more !!! Woo If you can't go to Brazil, Brazil can come to you through Brigadeiro.

I got the dark chocolate, espresso, cookies & cream, and lemon with cocoa nibs. Would eat all of them again and again. They are softer and smoother then your traditional truffles. I am also going to use the word lighter, and yes I'm talking about straight chocolate but they eat lighter and less filling than other truffles. Please don't skip the lemon with cocoa nibs! So good. They have a store front and a counter at The Made in KC store all on the Plaza.
