I went to this beautiful bakery yesterday with my mom! We moved to the ferguson/florissant area…read moreback in 2024! but we're still finding new places every once in awhile! As we drove in the area we saw this cute little bakery called Made by Lia! It was so warm on the inside and the workers made it feel very welcoming due to the intimacy when you first walk in from the "Hello's" along with the fact you can see the process and love that goes through each treat, due to the open area in the back where you can see them baking every item! They have so many menu items! I tried the St. Louie Lemon Cake, and the Honey Cinnamon speciality latte! And the rest of the treats that were on display looked just as yummy! I had to resist buying more than one thing (they all looked so good) I definitely will be back to Knit/Crochet while I sip and indulge in a yummy coffee and snack.

Made by Lia was such a cute and cozy coffee shop. The whole place had a really warm vibe that i…read moreloved. I also love that i was able to actually sit back and enjoy the experience of my coffee being made. I tried the Java hazelnut coffee and it was so good. I also thought the cups were really cute with the name printed on them i thought that was a nice little detail. I'd also like to add it's not just coffee they had teas, milk lemonade, apple juice a little something for everyone. Also I love me some plants I loved how they had real plants In the shop also tiny plants on each table was sooo cute. They had a bunch of different pastries you could choose from along with merch that you could shop while waiting for your order I tried the espresso doughnut and it was good, but it was more cakey but they let me know that before I ordered. My daughter got the gooey butter cake and enjoyed it. Another part that i liked was being able to see the pastries getting made off to the side. I even connected with someone else who enjoys visiting different coffee shops, which made the experience a lot better. Overall i would 100% visit made by Made by Lia again I also was able to grab my son a gift card from them for his birthday next week I think he will love it.

One flavor of ice cream available? Not a good starting sign!…read more Now I didn't get as many outdoor pictures this weekend as I had intended... but that's what happens when I heatwave happens in the middle of nowhere right? (But at least I remembered the food photo this time! So I"m not totally on dementia notice yet :) ) But I was having one of those goof-off days, (sorta) spent more than I should have at the World Market (I can't help it! The Sasume soft drinks -ALWAYS- Get me! (the Greatest Japanese invention ever :) ) So I'm REALLY needing Ice-cream. but i mean real ice cream. Then I remembered this place I promised myself I would stop in.. Jilly's. Driven past it a few times, saw it had once gotten a USA today recommendation, and the big sign had "cupcakes, ice cream and coffee" written right there. Go in and there's not really a vibe to the place. There is an ice cream counter and a cup-cake counter, and a couple of soda fridges. The problem is.. I'm going in wanting ice cream, make my way over ot check and there's ONLY ONE tub in the entire case with anything in it. And it's BUTTER PECAN??? I swear, maybe i just need to lower my expectations or something? But then how do I be the best "Yelpee" i can be? Anyway enough about the introspective for now. So I'm here, let's see what else we can have problems with today, shall we? The "coke" fridge has a limited supply of drinks.. I guess the stockers hadn't run yet today? (so -1 star for no ice cream/drinks). Well, it's a heatwave, so coffee's out. and that just leaves Cupcakes.... and wow.. these things are HUGE! And that's just the cupcake, that's not counting the icing on top! Basically, two entirely different layers.. one for the cake and one for the frosting.. (talk about a sugar coma!) Anyway, time to take a pack of 4 to go... (the sit down locale wasn't really much to my recollection, it just seemed "there" as if this wasn't a good day as I don't' recall a lot of the amenities as shown in most Yelpers photos., or I was just too hot to notice. ). so it's grab and go... And I realize, just looking at them; this is not one of those deserts you can eat and drive, so maybe a full sealed rack is a good thing right?) I make it home and wouldn't you know it; I forgot that cupcakes were actually "Stuffed".. Surprise!! 3 deserts in one! Cake, Filling, and Icing! Anyway, I don't even make it all the way through the first cupcake as a whole before I realize... Yep, Sugar Coma all the way! Basically, you've been warned you can order more than 1 cupcake to yourself, but count on leftovers if you do!! Anyway, I finally snapped out of my sugar coma and got around to writing things before i go for another sugar coma (dont' forget, I ordered 4 cupcakes!!). So yes these things are huge and they are priced a little more than usual cupcakes, but absolutely worth every penny So IRONICALLY, if i had gone in for Cupcakes alone... this would be a 5* review. As I was originally going for ice cream (And am so OVER butter pecan), 4 *'s it is at least for me. but we've given you the steps to get your own 5* time at Jilly's!

There are so many seasonal macaroon flavors, they make the absolute BEST baklava. I also really enjoy the giant cannolis! It's a small family owned business (it's physically small too).

The task proved to be quite difficult and I soon realized I was going to have to google some bakeries and make some phone calls. After being told no delivery and that the address was "difficult" or out of the range I found Coco on the third try. I told her my story and she was immediately involved and HELPFUL! She explained to me that the address was a little farther out and they would ask for a little more for delivery which was no problem and I totally understood. She made everything fresh (I ordered some cupcakes and cookies) and assured me that we would have delivery the next day! In the conversation I discovered that shes black owned and that made all the difference as well! The delivery went well even after I called her last minute to make a change and she was charming and accommodating throughout the entire exchange! If you're ordering something for someone in St Louis and you're out of town, look no further. The competitors didnt even TRY to help me. They just said no, sorry and hung up. My friend loved her treats. Everything was amazing. Ill be ordering from them again. Well done Coco!!!!

Unfortunately, when I came in on my lunch break, they didn't have any out. When I asked, I was told they only had mango and to come back Saturday for more. I explained that I don't live nearby, which is why I called ahead. They gave me two mango pastries from the back, but they seemed to have come straight from the freezer or fridge they were extremely hard and difficult to eat. The flavor itself (coconut-infused white chocolate with a subtle mango) was okay, but the texture made it disappointing. If you live nearby, I'd suggest pre-ordering to make sure you actually get what you came for. If you're driving a distance, I wouldn't rely on calling ahead since I was told they "always have plenty," but that wasn't the case. On top of that, their AC was out, so the door was open with a large fan going, and there were flies inside. The decor is nice at first glance, but the suede couches were stained and not very appealing to sit on. So I know if you are handicapped, you will not be able to access the facility as there are high stairs and no other Access
