It's exactly what you'd hope for: classic chocolate chip flavor, delicious brownie cookie flavor with that Nutella stuffing sandwiched in between both doughs which actually has a balanced sweetness without being overwhelming. Definitely worth going out of your way for. This cookie HIT! I also tried a few other items: * The cookie dough truffles were solid. Fun and indulgent, deff a sleeper hit. * The snickerdoodle cookie was solid but not the main event. Thin, chewy, with crispy edges which I love so nailed the texture perfectly. Just wish it had more snickerdoodle flavor. * The cookie dough cheesecake didn't hit for me. I lean more toward a classic vanilla-forward cheesecake, the edible cookie dollop was good though. What really stands out about this place is the variety. Cookies, cupcakes, pies, cheesecakes, brownies and they even take custom cake orders. It feels like one of those spots where you can keep going back and trying something new every time. Overall: worth the visit, especially for the Nutella cookie.

Went to Dyane's for the first time yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised. Was looking for…read moresomething sweet to bring to an event and I found it. Dyane's has so many sweet treats and it's a great place to get the supplies if you want to make your own candy. They have a whole section of molds and melting candy. They also have a wide selection of candy embellishments for your cakes or creations. I purchased a several things and took pictures of more. Chocolate - I got a half lb for $10.00 and had well over 12 pieces to bring to my event. The chocolates were very good and well received. I recommend the white chocolate/ raspberry one. It was different and nice. Cupcakes- I ordered a lemonade cupcake and peach amaretto cupcake, just on a whim to taste their cakes. They use a heavy frosting that I didn't love and the cake was dry. It was the end of the day, so perhaps they had been sitting out all day but for a first time buyer, that's not good. I love cupcakes and have pretty high standards and I will not be ordering cupcakes from Dyane's. Candy - if you are looking for a place to get original homemade treats for an Easter Basket. Come to Dyane's. They have so many cute options and relevantly affordable. I even saw bunny cookies in a stick. So cute. Staff- the staff here is wonderful. Very personable and friendly. They asked if it was first time, they recommended favorites and they made the experience a pleasant one. That is actually why I am giving it 4 stars instead of 3.

So I've been going to Phantom Farms for over 20 years now. The first time was in 2005 when my…read morecollege RA booked us a trip up there to go apple picking. I immediately fell in love with this spot. However it was not close to my college and i kind of forgot about it. Fast forward to 2019, when i was brought here for breakfast. I was taken aback that this was the very spot i had went to and loved long ago! I frequented here between 2019 and 2022 when living up in Lincoln, and loved every visit. Today i was disappointed. While it still looked beautiful and was stocked with local books and gifts, the service was not what it used to be, nor was the food and beverage. I had several employees walk by me while I waited at the counter. Nobody said I'll be with you shortly or someone will be right over. They just walked by. This went on for several minutes. My tiny latte was more than $7. I drink a lot of coffee and this was very disappointing. It was watery and lacked flavor. I was walking around sipping on it and taking photos, and missed hearing my name called for my breakfast sandwich. There was a bag on the to go spot, so i asked if it was mine. The guy opened the bag, looked in and was like looks like it might be egg on a croissant and handed it to me. I was very underwhelmed. I only knocked one star off my rating because any business could have an off day. I've had so many great experiences in the past, but today was definitely a let down. If i go back again, i hope it will be an all around better experience!

I needed a few cupcakes for a mid-week birthday celebration. Being a bit of a nerd myself, this…read morebakery instantly caught my eye--it felt like a match made in heaven. And honestly, it was. I found the shop tucked away in my old stomping grounds, and when my GPS announced I had arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see it now occupies what used to be a beloved old Italian bakery. There's a small parking lot right next to the well-marked entrance, and their adorable bespectacled cupcake logo makes for a charming first impression. Inside, the space is a nostalgic dream for fans of all things pop culture. The décor spans across countless beloved universes--Marvel, Star Wars, Disney, Harry Potter, Pokémon, Mario, and more. Familiar faces like Batman, Spiderman, Thor, and the Hulk line the walls and shelves, giving the whole place a fun and immersive vibe. But let's talk about the real stars: the baked goods. The display at the entrance is packed with eye-catching treats--cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and beyond. Everything looked just as mouthwatering in person as it did in the photos that initially drew me in. In addition to desserts, they also offer cannoli, cinnamon rolls, brownies, breakfast wraps, sandwiches, bagels, toasts, bowls, and a variety of drinks including coffee, smoothies, and iced options. Since I was there for cupcakes, I picked out three flavors: Mocha Cappuccino, Banana Pudding, and Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana. I only got to try the two banana ones, but both were delicious. The Mocha one smelled heavenly though! A surprise bonus--the cupcakes had fillings, which I wasn't expecting. The frosting-to-cake ratio was perfect, and the cake itself was light and fluffy, yet sturdy enough to hold up the frosting. The owner was super helpful in guiding my selections and genuinely lit up when I asked about the bakery's background and theme. They host themed events too--like an upcoming Star Wars Day breakfast with a buffet, character meet-and-greets, goodie bags, and more. I don't live in the area anymore, so coming back would be a special treat--but I definitely plan to. Getting out of the parking lot was a bit tricky due to the busy nearby intersection, but it wasn't too hard to navigate. A small inconvenience considering everything this place has to offer. Bottom line: this bakery is a delightful, nerdy, sugar-filled gem. A perfect place to treat yourself!

The cupcake bouquets are made to order and come in a variety of flowers and colors. Bouquets come in 7, 12, 14, 19, 24 cupcakes. Three weeks ahead of the date of the party, I called and placed an order with Susan, owner of Awesome Sweets Bakery. Susan walked me through the flavors and fillings of the cupcakes and the colors. I chose 7 cupcakes-3 Red Velvet filled with Chocolate Mousse and 4 Funfetti filled with Strawberry Buttercream and for colors-blue, yellow, white, and pink. Credit card information was also taken when I placed my order. It was very easy to work with Susan. On the day of the party, I went to pick up the cupcake bouquets and they all looked so beautiful. It was stored in a tall box and was easy to transport. I can tell so much attention to detail and hard work went into piping the flower petals. The cupcakes were moist and icing wasn't overly sweet. My friend absolutely loved the cupcake bouquet and the cupcakes were very yummy. Thank you Susan!

We got a chocolate killer slice of cake of vanilla and a chocolate peanut butter cake! These were bursting with flavor and so moist and fresh with a perfect amount of frosting!

Ice cream stand was not open today which was a little bit of a disappointment, but we will definitely be coming back again!

First stop…read morewas to try their ice cream served from a trailer in the side yard, to the left of the market. With about a dozen options we had no problem selecting our choices. The ice cream is sweet and creamy with plenty of flavor. Next up, we explored their market. Gift items, pantry items, grab 'n go cakes, muffins, pizza strips and sweet snacks, milk, cheese, ice cream containers. Lots of sweet treats in the display cases too. We ended our visit with a visit to the cows and milking barn. We were too early to see the milking process but we did walk the little trail where kids can participate in a scavenger hunt. Get supplies in the tractor mailbox at the beginning if the path. A few heifers are penned up outside the milking barn and several more were standing in front of a huge fan at the back. At 90° even the cows want a fan! There's a good amount of parking in front of and to the left of the market. Handicap spots are right by the market door. Two porta-potty right next to the parking lot.

We found our way through the sea of hallways to the Sarcastic Sweets storefront, which is only open on Fridays from 12-4PM. We were greeted nicely by the woman working the counter and liked the selection of flavored coffees. Sarcastic Sweets seems to mostly operate on per-orders and they also have a food truck, but there were a number of baked items in the case on the counter and we chose a bbq chicken calzone, which was very good. It was super hot the day we visited, but if it had been a cooler day, we would have enjoyed the Lorraine Mills outdoor seating area. We haven't tried the food truck, but hope to catch them in our area soon!

We ordered the milk & cookies (consisting of the oreo maddness & s'mores cookies with a glass of whole milk) and the cookie sandwich (2 m&m cookies with vanilla ice cream). The cookies were gigantic, but they were not good: they were either too dry or too doughy, and not flavorful at all. We couldn't really taste the difference between any of the cookie flavors. The ice cream was also not good, certainly not fresh, as if it was right out of a frozen ice cream tub from Wal Mart. I can't say I'd recommend this one.

I have visited this place a couple times in the last two months. The first time was for an almond…read moremilk latte with one pump of syrup. While I did greatly appreciate that they use ceramic mugs instead of paper if you choose, I was disappointed in how it almost cost $10 for a nondairy latte. The second time I went I ordered a chai latte and found out they use the mix instead of making it from chai tea. Disappointing from a place that demands premium pricing. I ordered a chai tea instead and the water was so hot I had to order ice. I was with a little kid who also got a chai and disappointed they didn't offer that to him and instead gave me what I consider scalding hot water in a cup with a tea bag. Staff was friendly. I went to Unlikely Story in Plainville and got a chai latte made from real tea with almond milk under $6 last week. So again the prices at this Bakery are premium. I am willing to pay for premium if that is what I am getting and while the first time I got a latte it was tasty but I still am disappointed at the price point. The second time I went I sat at the bar in front of the espresso machine and was grossed out at how dusty the top of the machine is... because they have their to-stay mugs upside down on top of it. There was a layer of dust and there were dust bunnies hanging off it in my direction. There was a bit of dried splattered milk on it too. Basically, they need to clean that and it was not the type of dust that was just there for a week. Got a scone that I wasn't sure was either day old or overcooked either way I needed a sip of tea to get it down and I did not finish it because it just wasn't that great. Pretty sure the scone was over $5. While I want so badly to support a small business like theirs I don't think I will be back until I know they clean the machine more frequently.
