Popped by here after jury duty in Placerville and oh my... These sweet treats were perfect!! This place is such a cute little bakery with lots to choose from! I got their chocolate chip cookie, and it is just how I like them -- so soft, not too sweet, and almost like cookie dough! I also got the oatmeal thin mint cookie, which sounded interesting at first but wanted to try, and it was delightful! It's not too sweet and had a perfect balance with the mint. I also tried their coconut macaroons which were amazing! Reminded me of how my mom makes them! Thank you for such a wonderful treat! I definitely need to come back to try the gelato, which looked AMAZING.

Brown sugar chocolate chip butter cookies were lovely. I could have eaten anything in there. Taste like real gelato from Italy to me. High quality sweets that didn't make me tired the next day or not be able to sleep at night. Rico!

I am from San Francisco visiting for the weekend. I purchased two doughnuts and a cupcake. Absolutely unbelievable! Way better than any other doughnut shop in SF. I am extremely pleased with the taste and the service (younger girl with dark hair). 5 out of 5!!! Thank you so much!

This bakery is a great addition to the Placerville scene. Excellent service. Delicious ice cream. Don't forget to load up a gift card.

Donuts are very substantial. A little pricey compared to other donuts but as they say, sometimes you get what you pay for. Also tried the macaroons, wife commented they were a little gritty, which was neither a positive nor a negative, just a descriptor. Mocha was tasty. Shop was cute. Service was fast and friendly.

Great place! The black cocoa cake is amazing and the gelato is great. I am sure you will be happy with whatever you get here. Also love supporting local family-owned businesses.

Love, love and LOVE! So delicious! We will be back for more. The doughnuts and hot chocolate with homemade marshmallow was so frothy and delightful! Super cute inside too.

Cozy, delicious-smelling little shop with super friendly and helpful service! Such a fun range of bakery options and the gelato flavors...drool... We tried two more unique flavors, ube and bananas dulce de leche, and two classics, mint chip and rocky road. All were so vibrantly flavorful with just the right amount of sweetness.So happy we have this perfect little addition in Placerville now!
