I recently got to try their fruit fondants and lavender shortbread. The fruit fondants are good if you like sweets since they really mainly taste like sugar - I couldn't really make out distinctive fruit flavors - and are almost powdery in consistency. I really liked the lavender shortbread since it does have a fairly strong lavender flavor and has that buttery richness of shortbread. However, I do find Miette to be a bit on the pricey side so I wouldn't generally want to buy their sweets on a regular basis.

HARD AND CRUSTY 5 DAY OLD SAFEWAY CUPCAKES I don't know what I was expecting after trying to battle for a parking space to satisfy my cupcake craving, but it sure wasn't the stale, hard yellow cupcake I bought for $5.25! James and the Giant Cupcake make these cupcakes look like something Safeway discarded! NASTY!

Cupcakes are not very good. Cake part is dry, frosting is too hard. And they were expensive and small. The service was fine.

The variety her is pretty amazing. The team is usually pretty helpful. They did need a few days notice to make a birthday cake, which wasn't super convenient. But it was tasty!

Stopped by to pick up quick dessert. Lovely little shop with lots of goodies. VERY expensive but worth it. BUT the staff was anything BUT welcoming, not rude but not friendly. No one said hello to me or thanked me for coming in and when asked a question they mumbled the answer. I try so hard to support local business but staff needs to be trained to at least APPEAR to be appreciative of the business. It's no fun going into a cute little shop and be treated as if they could not care whether or not you shopped there. I might or might not return. The little lemon tarts were very good but expensive. I'll think twice before returning,

A dry carrot cake. Not even sure carrots or their remnants appeared - great presentation the cake looked especially

Great customer service and I love that they have a "happy hour" on their macarons. A lot of the macarons looked and tasted similar to each other (besides the more obvious flavors like chocolate vs pumpkin), but the texture was perfect. Light and fluffy cupcake. I do wish they had more variety of flavors for fresh baked cookies and cupcakes, but it may have been because I came at the end of the day. The mellow creme candies essentially taste like candy corn, if you're into that.

Fantastic customer service!!! I needed a super special birthday cake for tomorrow and Cristof was amazing by phone, explaining everything in detail, writing down what I wanted the cakes to say, and being patient and kind along the way. I am so excited to pick up the cakes tomorrow! Thank you Cristo / Cristof!! Such a pleasure to work with you!!

Miette is a confectionery heaven. I true candy shop with delicious cakes, tarts, cookies, and confections. And they had samples of their delish Gingerbread. Everyone who works at Miette is so sweet and so helpful. Their cupcakes with Italian meringue are always so delicious. And I wish I had more celebrations in my life so I had more excuses to get their cakes!

I stumbled upon Miette after an unsuccessful dog training session with my puppy, Miss Red, about 6 or so months ago and now we are regular visitors at least twice a week. The Americano is my absolute favorite! Any of their pastries or desserts are wonderful. My favorite is the Lemon scone for breakfast and one of their lemon or chocolate tartlets for dessert. They have a wide selection of cupcakes and cookies as well.I can't wait for the chocolate covered whoppers to come back in stock!The staff are very friendly and helpful and the store is beautifully decorated. Thank you!

Delicious cupcakes and sweets, but slightly pricey.

Ordered a cake from here last minute and they did a wonderful job!! Not only was the cake delicious, the customer service was superb. The staff was great about answering questions I sent via email and on the day of the pick up, they were very friendly. I also appreciate that this shop was flexible in when I could pick up the cake as I had a hard time finding places open until later on the day. Thanks again!!
