I recently picked up a small Lemon cake and a Strawberry cake from Morning My Day in Silver Spring…read more I was expecting a decent dessert; I wasn't expecting to be reminded that most other bakeries have been lying to us for years. The first bite was a bit of a shock to the system. It's one of those rare "Ratatouille moments" where a flavor profile manages to bridge the gap between Maryland and the legendary sponge cakes of Phoenix Bakery in LA. It's a bit of a trick, really--making something taste like a childhood memory without being cloying about it. The Breakdown: * The Sponge: It's exceptionally light. Biting into it is less like eating a dense dessert and more like biting into a sweetened, high-end pillow. It's airy, delicate, and possesses the kind of structural integrity that only a professional (or a wizard) could manage. * The Icing: A triumph of restraint. Instead of the usual sugary plaster one finds elsewhere, this is a light, white cream. It's sweet enough to let you know it's there, but it doesn't try to dominate the conversation. It's icing with a bit of dignity. * The Verdict: This is how cake ought to be. It's exquisite, technically brilliant, and far too easy to eat in a single sitting. If you appreciate a dessert that relies on craft rather than a massive dose of corn syrup, do yourself a favor and stop by. It's a legit bit of baking excellence right here in Silver Spring

I came on a Saturday around 3:00. Easy metered parking (not free on Saturdays) directly across the…read morestreet. There were still ample baked goods at this time. There are only two tables inside. Both were taken, but fortunately for me the two guys at the one table were leaving as I was placing my order. The two young ladies at the other table were very loud and animated when they were speaking to each other, so that was a bit annoying. Then six or seven people came in to order and he got pretty crowded in that small space. I loved my purple yam pasty. It was soft and fresh. I just wonder why my taro milk tea wasn't purple like the other one posted here. It was just OK; the tapioca bubbles were all clunked together. I had to get a straw to separate them. I will definitely return for takeout or maybe stay if nobody else is there and it's quiet

We got a plain glazed donut for $3.40 - it tasted like it came from the Safeway across the street but at double their price. Awful. They told us they had coffee but not decaf. The lone old/very dirty coffee pot visible to all was also a turn off. The Tea Room is a great alternative in Kensignton just a few short blocks away with fresh baked goods and sandwiches and fresh coffee in a clean professional setting.

It's a small shop and is just outside of downtown Silver Spring; at the moment this does mean that you can dodge the Purple Line construction by coming here. Their titular dessert slice is not expensive not quite small. However, the quality was apparent, with the strong bitterness of coffee coming through so you're not just getting pure sweetness. I like contrast in my desserts. It was a worthy endeavor, and the other desserts they had out looked appealing. There was also a small brunch kind of menu, that was more Ethiopian than Italian.
