I happened upon Sweet Mary's Bakery when I was walking to my car. I was surprised to find a New…read moreHaven Bakery I hadn't heard of. So I visited. Sweet Mary's is lovely inside. I noticed a reference to the fact that they have cooking classes. There were two to three people working. Two people, perhaps the owners, seemed like they were training a third person. In any event, everyone was very nice and helpful. In terms of baked goods, the most visible things were two glass cases of many cupcake flavors. I also noticed some cookies. I should note that when I visited, the colleges were on break. I'm not sure if they have more options when the colleges are in session. The cupcakes looked outstanding. Well iced. Nice colors. I ordered a lemon cupcake, and a chocolate peanut butter cupcake. I had parts of both. The cake was very fresh. The peanut butter icing was delicious. The lemon icing/curd was delicious too. My only other comment is that certain parts of the yellow lemon cake were a bit dry, but it wasn't noticeable when the bites contained icing. I'd definitely return to try more things. I've seen references to macarons, and that definitely intrigues me. 4.5 Stars

The shop is really bright and welcoming, and smells great. I went to the bakery area where I was quickly greeted. I spent a bit of time looking through all their options but immediately opted for the strawberry cheese cake and lemon drop cupcakes. As soon as I stated this I noticed their dipped cupcakes which looked great, I guess something I'll have to come back for. I was quickly given my cupcakes and my total was about $7. Both cupcakes were delicious. I could taste all the flavors and would happily eat both again. Given how close I live, it's a bit dangerous to be so conveniently located. I'll definitely be back

My daughter was pleasantly surprised! What i appreciate is the ingredients! These cookies aren't loaded with garbage but are still yummy! (I also had a fudge stuffed cupcake from them, absolutely the best!) I used Moon Rocks a 2nd time after that (& more) and sent a huge order of individually wrapped cookies to my daughters sorority, with their logo imprinted on their individual wrappers, and the whole house enjoyed the treats. These cookies arrive fresh and well packaged! Send a loved one, client or business partner a tasty sweet treat!

Placed an order for a 6" cake on a Wednesday to pick up on a Friday. The person that took the order…read morewas super nice and asked me to email her a picture of the cake off their website that I liked. Picked it up at the time they told me I could and I was in and out in under a minute. The cake was ADORABLE but horribly dry and crumbly. The buttercream frosting was ok but not super buttery. It was cute but no one finished their slice and we ended up throwing almost the whole cake out. Maybe it was an off day but didn't feel like it was worth the $60.00 we paid.

Snapshot: Food: 5/5 Drink: NA Vibe: NA Service: 5/5 Value: 5/5 ‍‍ Family-Friendly: NA Highlights: Perfect For: Beautiful, custom cakes for special occasions All The Details: Overdue review! My first experience with Alyssa's Cakery in Wallingford was for my baby shower cake, and it was fantastic. Searching for cake options in the greater Hamden area, Alyssa's not only emerged as one of the most affordable but also the best in terms of customer service. They were incredibly easy to work with and completely captured my vision for a naked cake. The cake was not only beautiful but also delicious, and it was ready right on time. It's hard to ask for more when it comes to preparing for a special event. Alyssa's Cakery's combination of quality, value, and customer service makes it a top choice for anyone in need of a special occasion cake. I will definitely be returning next time I'm in the area!

I live in Las Vegas and was stopping at a near by tea shop when I saw Katalina's Cupcakes and…read morewalked inside faster then a mouse going for some cheese. This little bake shop had a ton of different cookies, cakes, brownies, and other sweets on display and since I needed a little bite before my tattoo appointment I figured this was a great place to grab a few things. I picked up some chocolate chip cookies as well as what I believe is like a cookie/brownie hybrid that was pretty dang dense and did the job of giving me a quick fill up. The chocolate chip cookies were delicious and on the softer side which is exactly what I want in a cookie while the brownie/cookie was just plain tasty. Overall, Katalina's Cupcakes gets a thumbs up from me. The employee working was super friendly, the bakery itself was cute and cozy, and the food was delicious as well. Sweet tooth need a fix? In New Haven? I know just the place.

We stopped into Bread & Chocolate shortly after noon on a Sunday knowing they were closing in under…read morean hour. Most of their baked goods were sold out, which totally made sense because it was nearly closing time and the items that remained looked delicious. So we were sure that whatever had been sold before was more of the same. I ordered a hot latte and the kiddo ordered a raspberry tea. We also decided to order toasted sandwiches (grilled vegetables for me and grilled cheese for her) to enjoy in the shop. Enjoy we did! The latte was served with a foam smiley face. The espresso was strong and delicious and tempered nicely by the milk. Her tea was piping hot and fruity. The sandwiches were toasted but not blazing hot, for which we were thankful because we were very hungry. They also weren't greasy - an issue I have with other toasted sandwiches. As a side note - why do sandwich shops slather sandwiches in oil or butter when a simple iron sandwich press and a hot grill will suffice? Anyway, our sandwiches were great! They were filling but didn't leave us feeling lethargic (please refer back to the not greasy comment.) We were so happy to have a good meal and a seat after a long tour around the Quinnipiac campus. Bussing one's table is expected and the staff kept the tables spic and span in between patrons. Speaking of the staff, the young man who took our order and was servicing the dining area was kind and patient as we ordered. We made sure to leave fifteen minutes before closing because we didn't want to be THOSE people, namely the couple in the corner who'd setup their computer shop and looked to have no intention of leaving without a fight. We will definitely return to Bread & Chocolate if we find ourselves in the area again.

This place was extremely disappointing…read more I've had their bread at local restaurants and always thought it was excellent, which is what motivated me to visit in person. Over the past few months, I tried stopping by three separate times, twice they were already closed, and once they had completely sold out of bread. I finally made it there on a Sunday morning, and they had only one loaf left, and not a type I wanted. We decided to order two egg and cheese sandwiches (one with turkey bacon). Both were terrible. The rolls were soft, soggy, wet, and flavorless. Each sandwich had a single egg placed off-center, so half the roll barely had any egg at all. The turkey bacon was so bad we removed it and threw it out. Normally, I would have just moved on and not returned. But what really pushed me to write this review (which I never write) was the carrot cake we purchased. We took it home, refrigerated it, and tried it later that evening. It was, without question, the worst piece of carrot cake I've ever had. The frosting was hard, dry, stale, and completely lacking flavor, no sweetness at all. The cake itself was equally bad: dry, crumbly, and utterly tasteless. There was no hint of carrot, cinnamon, nutmeg, or any spice, just bland, dry crumbs. The cake was completely lacking sugar. After two bites, we threw it in the garbage. I don't say this lightly. I've been cooking and baking for decades, hold a degree in Hotel & Restaurant Management, and spent over 20 years in the industry. I've traveled extensively and eaten outstanding food around the world. For me, someone who genuinely loves desserts, to throw cake away (which is rare) says everything. I understand it was a Sunday and that fresh baking may not be happening that day, but it's simply not acceptable to sell baked goods from prior days that are clearly stale. Even more concerning than the staleness however, was the complete lack of flavor in the product. The sandwiches were disappointing, but that cake was on another level. I won't be returning for sandwiches or desserts, but perhaps the bread.
