T-Cups Cafe

We stopped in for the first time today. I had no idea what to expect, but was slightly underwhelmed…read moreby the amount of options compared to other shops in the area. There were limited quantities of each so I'm not sure if they have more things on the weekends, which would totally make sense for a local small business on a random Tuesday. Parking is easy once you find it and although the inside is very small there are a few chairs and cafe tables perfect for a duo. Nonetheless, we left with a good haul and got one of almost everything: Red velvet slice, Carrot cake slice, Chocolate Mousse slice, Chocolate brownie, and Lemon bar. They also had a sheet cake, a small pack of cupcakes and cake pops in a separate case, so I wasn't sure if those were preorders or display or available for purchase. Here's what I loved: THE BROWNIE. One of the best I've ever had! The lemon bar was also delicious, super tart and perfectly baked. I'd get either of those again! Customer service was very friendly, prices were clearly displayed and fair, and the portions were good sizes. Here's what I just liked: The cake part of the red velvet, mousse, and carrot cake was a bit dry. They were beautifully decorated, the frosting and fillings were great, but the cake itself just wasn't as soft and moist as I was hoping. Another Yelper mentioned sticking the cake in the microwave and I wish I would have tried that. Definitely a small business worth supporting!

This was my first visit the Dessert European Cakes and Pastries, also called Dessert European…read moreBakery. Upon entering, I was struck by three things, how friendly the worker was, how hard the door was to open (I do have mobility issues on occasion), and how little there was on display to choose from. Still, I found a couple of nice items (red velvet and some serious chocolate cake) my wife loved the chocolate but we found the red velvet to be quite dry and hard. I suspect that it had been in the case far too long. Fortunately the chocolate was so good, my wife said that it more than made up for it. Overall, the ambiance was simple bakery, nice folks, serving well. I suspect where these nice folks shine is in pre-orders (which makes TOTAL sense, as foot traffic, particularly in this bakery's location would be a tough sell indeed). I suspect that we will be keeping Dessert European Cakes and Pastries in mind for our upcoming bakery needs.

They carry a friendly personality with smiles on their faces. Inside has a swinging bench that is fun to sit on and enjoy your treat. Bathrooms are clean. Tables are clean, no ice cream stuck to the table. I think my only downside is the flies. Both my visits, there has been flies swarming me while I'm trying to eat. I'm constantly swapping them away. It's a bit annoying while trying to eat. Maybe a fan above the entrance to keep them from entering may help? Other than that, that would be my only complaint. I will always stop at House of Random whenever I'm in Turlock and need something to satisfy my sweet tooth. Definitely recommend

I liked the food . The owners are very friendly. The prices were ok. The funnel cakes will pass , I have had better. The egg rolls were very brown so, must be frozen. The area where the cooking was done appeared to be clean but, when I saw the fan on the floor, the vents and walls, I choked on my food. It is filthy in there. If the health department came in there, they would shut it down. I was apprehensive the whole time that something would fly in my food and my friend wanted to leave her food and just go. The place needs a good cleaning. read more

Someone came over and took our drink orders while we looked at the menu, though the restaurant was busy it wasn't too loud, and we could easily have a conversation. My boyfriend ordered the Croissant Breakfast Sandwich with Hashbrowns & I ordered the Breakfast Combo #3 - their famous "baked here" French Toast, two eggs & choice of breakfast meat. I am extremely picky when it comes to French Toast, but this was really good, fluffy but crisp edges and a great flavor. Their portions were large, with very reasonable prices. They had a counter front ice cream bar that we did not partake in, however we may do so on our next trip. We will be back in the future.
