Half dozen minus one

Upon arriving I was treated almost immediately! The girl behind the counter was quick and very helpful I was about to pay when I forgot that I wanted a coffee too without hesitation she went back and knocked it out while other customers were waiting, I love this place as you can see my son does too as he didn't wait for me to take a picture of the doughnuts I got. So good definitely coming back again !!

We stopped by here while getting Filipino food next door at Mengs. What a gem this one is. I'm always iffy on eating at places that are 24 hours because of quality issues, but this place was great. We got some bagel sandwiches for the next morning and some donuts. I got a chocolate donut with peanuts on top and to my surprise, there was a mix of peanut butter and chocolate flavoring, which was awesome! I'd never had anything like it before. There was a bit of a language barrier as I couldn't really understand the clerk up front as I told her what I wanted on my sandwhich, but everything is really good. I don't often find a really good donut and sandwhich shop and this really hit the spot.

" Have Not Seen A Winchell's In Years " My wife and I went to visit the Winchell's Donut Shop is located in the Cathedral City Marketplace shopping center. I had gone to the Food For Less in that same shopping center and when I was leaving I saw the Winchell's Donut Shop. We use to have a lot of them in the San Diego area but now we only have 3 left, and all three are a long drive away from us. We entered the shop and were nicely greeted by the only employee Cecilia Castellanos. Cecilia was very nice as she answered all of our questions about the different Donut options. And as we remembered the doughnuts were very tasty and good.

I only really ever go for the chillas and customer service. Lady there is super nice. I rarely go but the lady always seems to remember me and we always strike up a conversation. She is so super sweet and makes these very perfectly.

Forget the golf, hiking, and biking around here. Head straight for Winchell's. This is why you are here.

Fantastic, yummy, and my tastebuds want me to say, it's worth every dollar!…read more No one ever answered the phone when I called several times on different days. Hit and miss when you go to pick up a cupcake too late. Go and read hours and sign update. No photos, we ate them too fast. Thats what happens when you heard about this place, and never had the luck to get there on time. My craving was satisfied ten-fold. My friend and I inhaled those babies. Had a maple, a coconut, and a chocolate one. Rainbow, cupcakes, or bust!

Melissa was very accommodating with the shorter than their recommended lead time of about 3.5 weeks versus 4 weeks in advance and was very responsive throughout the entire process through email with the final confirmation over the phone. On the day of the pick up, they also remembered we were coming in from LA and followed up with us to make sure we were going to get there before they closed at 4PM. They had a wide variety of flavors to choose from that could be cake, but we settled on traditional chocolate, one of the flavors that allow for a custom design. We sent them an inspiration photo of what we were looking for along with the color scheme and they absolutely knocked it out of the park on the looks. The cake was well received by everyone at the party. Since I was unable to get one of their more daring and creative flavors as the custom cake, I did go ahead and order a dozen of their Dubai chocolate cupcakes and very much enjoyed them.

Bread and Flours is what I've been hunting for since I arrived in Palm Springs: real sourdough,…read morefour ingredients, and I asked before I bought. Most bread sold in this country is an engineering problem solved with a chemistry set. Twenty-odd ingredients, half of them unpronounceable, all in service of a loaf that can sit on a shelf for two weeks and still pass for food. I've been reading those labels since I got here, and putting most of them back. So I asked Kristin -- who owns the place with her husband Mark -- what goes into the sourdough. Four ingredients. That was the entire answer. You can watch the argument for it before you taste it. Mark works behind glass at the back of the shop, which means the bread isn't a product that arrives, it's a process you can stand and watch. Most of what's on the shelves is made there. The loaf earns a sales pitch it never bothers to make. The crust is hydrated and resists -- it doesn't shatter, doesn't crack apart, and never makes you work your jaw to get through a bite. Behind it, the crumb is tight and custardy, tears cleanly, and holds under work without saturating. The sour sits somewhere between lactic and acetic, neither overbearing nor understated. The bake is blond, the texture substantial -- chewy without ever becoming exhausting. If you come to sourdough chasing a crust that shatters and blisters, this one will disappoint you. It isn't built for that, and holding it against the loaf would be a mistake. A crust that splinters is a crust that quits the moment you ask it to carry something. That's the whole test, and most sourdough fails it in one direction or the other. Bread that's lovely with butter and jam collapses as soon as you build on it. Bread engineered for a sandwich is dull on its own. This does both without compromising for either -- plain with butter, or loaded up as a gourmet sandwich with everything inside, and it holds. Eleven dollars a loaf. Below what this level of craftsmanship could command. The Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookie is soft, with a properly caramelized exterior and just a hint of sourdough running underneath the sugar. The chocolate manages smooth and sharp at the same time. The Seasonal Strawberry Oat Crumble Bar is built rather than assembled. The oats are chewy and read as sweet oatmeal, not the dry feed most bars settle for; the strawberry is fresh, tart, and clearly deliberate, nothing like the thick gelatinous jam usually spooned into these things. The crumble is buttery and hydrated just enough that it doesn't lodge in every crevice of your mouth. It sits on a crust closer to a well-baked pie than a bar base, and nothing in it overpowers anything else. Both did the thing that separates real baking from the industrial version. You finish and you're happy, ready to get on with your day. Not heavy, not tired. Food is meant to energize you, not slow you down. Most of what gets sold as bread does the opposite.

Bread and Flours feels like a hidden gem in Palm Springs. Tucked away a bit, it feels special, and…read morehonestly I'm surprised there isn't a line around the corner. This sourdough bakery is super cute, the staff is always top notch and genuinely friendly, and everything we've tried has been excellent. The sourdough is exactly what you want: just the right natural tang, a soft interior, and a crisp crust. They also carry and make so many other amazing items beyond the bread itself. The staff gives solid recommendations, and even when they have things we've never heard of, they take the time to explain them well. Their baked goods are consistently fantastic, and the citrus-marinated olives never even make it all the way home because we end up eating them in the car. We do not live especially close, but whenever we are in Palm Springs and have the time, we make it a point to stop by.
