First things first: I bought a 6” strawberry cake for a birthday (which was INCREDIBLY tasty, so fresh and good! Highly recommend— the buttercream is the perfect sweetness). Glad to support a local bakery as opposed to Whole Foods 😊 The in-store experience was kind of chaotic though. I went on Saturday morning around 9am and there was a long line outside. That’s fine, but while waiting we all had to listen to constant uncomfortable heckling from someone sitting by the door, saying “go in, go in!!!” even though it was very crowded inside. Even when going inside, it was pretty confusing and you’re constantly dodging people left and right who are shuffling around either waiting for part of their paid order or a preorder pickup or something. It felt like the whole order system could benefit with a little more structure to help with the volume of people inside. Staff were doing their best despite the rush! I also picked up a small fruit tart and morning bun when I was there, but those were kind of a letdown. 4 stars for the amazing cake!
I absolutely love their Financier Tartlets! The cardamom knot is also great and their brownies are yummy too! I come here for decadent treats to keep me strong throughout the tough work day!
Desserts: 5/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Overall: I have to say that there are some definite hits from this place. The extended review... Desserts: Milky Way Bombe - 5/5 - This is a nice combination of textures and flavors. For the most part it's all chocolate but again a nice assortment of textures. You get a crispy shell, creamy mousse, and fluffy cake on the inside. Red Velvet Cake - 5/5 - A very moist cake base and fluffy and tasty cream cheese frosting. I have to say this is one the best ones I've had. Oreo Cake - 5/5 - Just like the Red Velvet Cake, the cake is very moist and tasty. It also has a similar cream cheese frosting with some oreos in it. SO YUM!!!! Raspberry St German Eclair - 3.5/5 - the texture was consistent with standard eclairs and the filling was quite nice. What I loved was the different flavor of the traditional eclair. Service: 3.5/5 - Friendly service. Ambiance: 4/5 - It has a good space for taking a seat to enjoy yourself once this pandemic is over.
