“I forgot to make a review when I bought this, so better late than never! I came in with a custom cake order for my best friend who recently had a major surgery. To make her feel better, she requested a cake, and being the silly people we are, I requested they put an inside joke on top of the cake. It turned out amazing!! Service was great, prices are great, and it was delicious! I can't wait to go back and order more yummy things. 😊“

“Butter, butter & more butter. Everyone needs to exercise restraint when it comes to this place. I visit only once or twice per week and would go more often if I could. Breakfast, cappucino and pastries are outstanding. French cooking with butter, a la Julia Child’s. They also sell Italian dishes for home that need a little bit extra salt and pepper for more of a flavor punch, but with authentic home type recipes that are healthier than your average big factory manufacturing“
