We have been in search of a bakery in the area that bakes unique homemade items and we finally…read morefound one! We had a small sampling of some things for our first test run. A snickerdoodle cookie and orange cranberry cookie, six macaroons, two of coconut cream, two of cotton candy and two of orange Creamsicle and a Hermann Bundt Cake. I hope I'm spelling that correctly. Ms. joy herself served me, we chatted about the shop and how she's been on not one but two TV programs. I got excited as soon as I heard this. Usually TV programs don't invest time unless the business is worth it so again I rushed home to try the sweet treats. My total was about $31. The shop was very cute and only had a small selection of things, which I don't mind as long as there good and they delivered. Both cookies with a great size, soft and so tasty. Great favors, I especially like the Orange cranberry, it was so flavorful. All three macaroons had great texture and flavor, the cotton candy was slightly hard but macaroons are hard to keep fresh so I'll give it a pass because the cream was exceptional. The Bundt cake was the last to try, and it had nuts and harvest tones, it was moist and she took the time to describe how she produces a rum butter sauce that she dips them in....it reminded me of Jamaican rum cake but sweeter. We will def be back to try more things!

The Pied Piper is one of two pie food trucks at the Backyard. I would first caution you that these…read moreare not traditional pies but hand pies. I was honestly expecting something more like a traditional mini pie, but these small half-moon pies can actually be eaten without utensils! I found it to be more similar to what I would call a turnover, but I found in my research that hand pies are actually quite common and have less flaky crust. They just have more crust proportionally and have less filling, making them thin and easy to eat without the content spilling out. I absolutely loved my caramel pecan pie! I also got to try my husband's cherry pie, which I also was a fan of. Both of the pies were pleasantly not as sweet (or fake tasting) as I expected. There really is a good balance of the buttery crust with the more sugary contents inside. I'll definitely be back to try other flavors and even some of the savory options, too!

But first off there was no soap in the bathroom. This is my number one pet peeve because let's face it how are the employees washing their hands if there's no soap. Both our milkshakes while absolutely looked amazing the milkshake part fell short of my milkshake expectations. It was more like a little ice cream with lots of milk. Like I said maybe it was just an off afternoon or perhaps this is the way they are here, but for 30+ dollars I was expecting an awesome milkshake. You can see the soupy shake running over and onto the plate. Also no chocolate or peanut butter sauce all over the top of the build me up buttercup. I do love the mason jar though

I am usually so…read moregood about taking the pre-eating pic for my review, but I sort of got...overly excited to dive in. Let me explain. We were eating dinner with the family at Mi Patron (across the parking lot) and my wife showed me a video of this Cookiewich thing at the food truck in the same parking lot. It being made, it being eaten, etc. I had to do it. I did. It was SOOOOO worth it, and was literally a Magical Ice Cream Experience. I just made up that term, but it works. I LOVED it, and almost stopped here again during my quick three-day trip to Lynchburg. I still regret NOT stopping by again, and sometimes have dreams about it while back in Colorado. But, that is neither here nor there. Anyway, you need to get yourself one of these awesomeness-in-an-ice-cream-treat things. In addition to the actual ice cream being awesome, they have the ring game (so you can entertain yourself while stuffing your face like I did), AND the value of what you pay and what you get is...sort of absurd in this day and age. It was $4.75, I believe and that is insane. Go and get it before they raise the price. I would have paid like $12 for that thing. I highly recommend making the dessert stop at this place when in the area, and see you there (no, seriously, the next time I am in Lynchburg, I am beelining it there)...
