This review should have been posted a few weeks ago but my schedule didn't allow me to actually sit…read morestill to do so ...I wanted to ensure I had the time to truly explain how amazing my experience has been with this Company. To start, I live in Philly & my daughter was Penn State Altoona at the time & on 4/26/26 she turned 20yrs old and this was the first time I wasn't going to celebrating with her and being hands on with all the plans. But with the secret help of her College Friends I was able to plan an amazing Birthday weekend in state college for all of them to enjoy but the most stressful thing was find her the perfect Cake!! Her friends wanted to go to pick one up from a Supermarket but because I wasn't going to be there I wanted to make everything about her Bday super special and a market cake wasn't going to work unfortunately in addition they were college kids with no vehicles I didn't want to put that taste on them and it may or many not get done. I was now less then 2wks from her Bday weekend and just now starting the search for the perfect "I'm sorry Mommy couldn't be there but hopefully this amazingly crafted artwork now called your Bday Cake makes up for it" type of Cake. So my 3-4hrs long search begun..I needed to find a Bakery that could make her a cake that not only looked good but tastes even better (I have been disappointed in the past so my research was on the First 48 level, ...a bad cake can ruin entire Bday in my opinion. In addition, I needed discreet delivery services. After hours of searching, reading reviews & scanning every social media accounts as well as any and all websites that mentioned their names to ensure all T's were crossed and the reviews were actually verified by real people before choosing Dolce Vita Desserts. Their designs were all so creative & beautifully done and after emailing a few times with Anthony he not only confirmed my specific request but he also ensure that they could/would customize to design I preferred..so I took two Of their designs (because I loved them both and couldn't decide one over the other) and made it one :) I also explained to Anthony my need desperately need for delivery ..( their site mentioned how delivery was limited) I was willing to send it as uber package delivery even I was praying I wouldn't have to do that. But, Anthony not only approved my delivery he also advised me to touch bases with the Hotel staff and provide them with the box dimensions to ensure their fridge would be able fit/store and also gave specifics on how to properly store ...information I didn't even think to consider. I whole heartily appreciate all that Anthony has done to help make my daughter's Birthday super special. Everything was executed seamlessly, even down to the delivery confirmation email I received from Both Dolce & the Hotel. My daughter not only loved her surprise bday weekend but she was in love with her cake!! I ordered the 6" inch round white cake with strawberry preserves. I thought that since only my daughter & 3 of her friends were celebrating with her that they would take the left over cake to share with others at their dorm but she told me the cake was so good they devoured it. Not one crumb was left. Which was done after making a photo shoot with the cake! She loved everything about that cake! My only regret...is the fact that I wasn't able to try it myself! I recommend Dolce Vita Desserts to every one! You won't be disappointed!!

My excitement made my sister make a quick turn. We walk in to see a small display case adorned with various pastries. I'm a sucker for a good flaky pastry, so of course I tried the chocolate croissant. I also LOVE chocolate chip cookies! Both were delicious. The cookie was the perfect combination of crispy and chewy, there was a hint of salt, it was nicely browned. The croissant was perfectly laminated layer after layer, and the pistachio mixture that was in the center; it reminded me of a Fifth Avenue bar. Only negative thing...there was too much filling, I'm not a big filling gal. I would be doing a disservice if I didn't mention the wonderful service we received. "Mr. Croissant" was personable and honestly probably the best interaction I've had with a baker (and I've been to a lot of bakeries). If you are in the area please checkout this cozy little bakery. Grab a coffee, a treat, have a seat, unwind and indulge.

What an amazing place to eat! Everything was fresh and delicious. It's the first restaurant that I…read morefelt safe enough to eat inside due to social distancing. My husband and son both had breakfast and everything was perfectly cooked. I was lucky enough to have the daily special which was homemade pot roast sandwich on homemade bread and I opted for the hand cut fries with gravy instead of mashed potatoes. Don't tell my Grandma, but this was even better than she ever made! We are camping at Bald Eagle State Park and since it's so close, looking forward to eating here again before we leave!

I couldn't help but grab an Apple baked good, tiramisu, and baklava. The tiramisu was absolutely perfect with a great consistency and taste.

Can't wait to come back and try the fluffy pancakes.

When you walk to the front door, there's a sign that directs you to enter from the left side of the building. The front doors are where you exit from. Upon entering, there's an unusual smell. It's not the ice cream or a sweet smell, kinda of an irritating chemical smell. Not sure if that's common here but it was distinct. This place does have over a dozen or so flavors as one time. Toppings are available and cost extra. Portions are not consistent. The small dish of ice cream was packed to the brim of the dish while the large ice cream dish showed each small scoop that was put in it. The patrons behind me ordered small dishes of ice cream too and those portions I would have considered to be a large. Even they questioned it being a small. There is some seating inside but it gets cluster very fast since there's a line of people standing in line to order. We took our ice cream back to our hotel since it was a short drive down the road. Staff was not friendly. The only reason I gave it 3 stars was the convenience of there being ice cream near the hotel and both my husband and son liked it. This place sells ice cream, milk, cheeses and ice cream cakes.

This was our first stop on our way. We stopped on a Wednesday at the opening of the winery. Nobody was in there except perhaps the owners were meeting and the lady that waited on us. The winery has been here for a while, the ride to the winery is through a small forest, which is exciting to us when winery visits start this way. We sampled two different ones. I had the reds and the wife had the whites. I like all of the wines that we sampled white and red. But the Rattlehead Red was my favorite and purchased a couple of those bottles to go. This was a good winery and quite spacious as well. I can see how this is a go to place with warmer weather v/s when we went into the code. Highly recommend giving this a chance.
