I went to this bakery to buy cupcakes for my 3-year-old son's school party. I specifically asked if the cupcakes were nuts-free, and the cashier confidently told me they were. Trusting their word, I bought the cupcakes, but when I got home, I saw on the box that they were made with nut flour! I immediately contacted the shop to request a return and refund, but to my shock, the cashier denied ever saying "nuts-free". Instead, she claimed she said "peanut-free," which is a blatant lie. No one with common sense, especially any parent, would ask for "peanut-free" – it's always about nuts as a whole when it comes to allergies. Free feel to check CCTV.

What really takes the cake (pun intended) is the owner's response. He aggressively backed up the cashier, acting like he was standing right there during the conversation, and flat-out refused to do anything to fix the situation. The attitude was rude, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. There are so many ways they could have handled this decently, but they chose to be dishonest and condescending instead. Seeing how the owner responds to other negative reviews will give you a clear picture of how you'll be treated as a customer.

I honestly have no idea how this place is still in business with such atrocious customer service and zero accountability. There are plenty of other bakeries that actually value their customers. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone, especially parents. Their dishonesty and lack of care are unbelievable.

If you are diabetic or have food restrictions, you will not believe the delicious sweets you can have here. Too good to be true isn’t always too good to be true!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, low carb, keto, sugar free, diabetic. They use Swerve as their only sweetener.

I’ve ordered from here several times and it’s been a great option. However, I PAID for 2 day shipping and it came in 5 days. After contacting them to see if it can be resent out or a refund they declined and said it was still edible. 5 days on the ground is not edible when dairy is involved. I loved ordering from this bakery, but not sure if I ever will again.

Happy to find a keto friendly bakery option to satisfy my cravings.
Parking is available in the deck under a residential tower; spaces reserved for shop. You’ll then walk through tunnel to the front of building and it will be on your left.

I ordered the Neapolitan Celebration Mousse Cake for my gluten-free friend’s birthday. Everyone LOVED it, especially the strawberry portion. I also ordered a goodies box for a friend with celiac who had a birthday around the same time. She enjoyed all of her cookies and other sweets. Zambawango is great!

I order their bread and several deserts at a time and have never been disappointed. It is amazing how their deserts consistently do not raise blood sugar readings. They are the only bakery I know that is consistent and dedicated to making quality low carb desserts and that ships nationwide with a great value on shipping rates. Their actual brick and mortar store is also worth visiting in Sandy Springs if you are local, their coffee is excellent and pairs well with their desserts. We need to all support more small one of a kind businesses like these that are solving a problem- providing a healthy and tasty dessert alternative for diabetics as well as people with low carb lifestyle

I spent over $100 here since we were heading to a family function where I knew we would not be able to eat the sweets that they provided. We are not keto, we simply made a commitment to avoid refined sugars for 60 days.

The place is cute and quaint so upon entering I got excited and decided to try multiple snacks plus there was a regular customer standing behind me, giving me guidance on what he thought was really good.

I was so disappointed!

I honestly don’t think the problem lies in the sugar substitute they use. I think it’s just not a good bakery! I was a regular at Sally’s gluten-free bakery before it closed and they had several options that did not contain sugar and they were delicious.

Not one of the snacks here is delicious in my opinion.

I really disliked the cinnamon bun and the chocolate brownie as they were disgusting! The cheesecakes were pretty bad as well - no semblance to a real cheesecake.

The carrot cake was OK. Not bad at all, but definitely not great. I haven’t tried the pecan pie yet, but I will update this review when I do.

Since I bought so many different options, the young lady helping me decided to stack one of my boxes as full as she could without caring how it would transport. So when I got back home, everything was all mashed together. Even though she was nice, this was terrible Customer Service!

I’ll just buy some blueberries the next time I get a sweet tooth.

Was excited about all the low carb options but found that most of it was lacking any flavor. The coffee cake was dry and hard as a rock. The strawberry cake and the lemon cookie were the only things with flavor and slightly enjoyable. I guess I had high expectations from how fantastic everything looked but the flavor just fell flat.

Dietary restrictions: Nut flours used in preparation.

Parking: Very limited parking

Fun bakery

Type 1, found this spot on a trip to Atlanta. Huge selection, too much for a single visit. Tried a number of the deserts. The flavor was very good, especially the Lemon cookies. Wow, a whole lotta lemon (and that's not a bad thing). The only downside is I'm guessing they use Swerve or some other brand of Erithrtol. Maybe I'm overly sensitive, I don't get the cooling effect, but I can "feel" it when something contains a lot of Erithrtol. Would love to taste something made with one of the newer allulose/Erithrtol blends. One more good thing, didn't notice any spike in my blood sugar, that's a huge win. Looking forward to my next trip, thinking there are some breads and bagels I need to try.

Everything I have tried was good, but I don't care for swerve as a sugar substitute. Switch to monkfruit, and your desserts will be epic! Monkfruit is all natural.

I’m so sorry but the sweets just did not taste good. We got three different items and each one left a weird taste in the mouth. I’ve tried several gluten-free, sugar-free low-carb items in my life, and they did not taste as bad, don’t waste your nine

You have got to try the cookies and creme pie. Have you had a Burger King Hershey‘s Pie??? It's a MUCH healthier and delicious version. The chocolate crust is crunchy like crushed oeo cookie wafers, in between there is whipped cream and chocolate. The top has a chocolate shell. It's beautiful and when you cut into it you smell the Heavenly sweetness of cream and chocolate. It's absolutely worth the price. Remember, you get 10 servings of decadence with only around 300 calories. At every restaurant that has a chocolate cake, the calories are a whopping 1,000-2,000 JUST for basic cake! You can literally eat a slice a day and gain zero weight! It's low carb, low sugar, low sodium, and you can't tell because it's delicious. Check out their specialty items that ship nationwide. I absolutely love their Christmas cookies and Valentine's Day boxes. I give them 10 ? stars!!! The shipping is fast and the food arrives fresh. Oh, these desserts are also very filling, so you may find that you eat less and are full longer. It's so satisfying!

Dietary restrictions: Great for Keto, Atkins, low sugar, and low sodium, and low calorie diets. Look at the ingredients, because they're very clean and some are vegetarian friendly, too.

The first time I wanted to try eating here they only excepted cards, and I did not have my card on me. So when I went again with my debit card I was excited to try their cheese pepper bagel and it was very good.

Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free items.
