Sunshine Spice Bakery & Cafe

Sunshine Spice Bakery & Cafe is always a wow factor, and where I often take out of town visitors for something fun, delicious, and unique. The pastries are always exquisite. The dumplings you'll crave until your next visit. The coffee is good, and they offer unique flavors like ube and saffron options.

Cute hidden gem in downtown Boise. Turkish coffee? Cardamom Lattee? They got you. Baked goods are delightful.

I love this place!!! Their Chocolate Choux is literally my favorite dessert! I've also had like 4 or 5 of their tarts flavors, the lemon bar, bagel, cheesy bread, and cookies, all were great. The owners are so kind and the restaurant is so calming and clean. This is my favorite local place to bring family/visitors from out of town.

This place lives up to its hype. We are from Indiana and found this place on a YouTube channel that recommended it upon other things to do/see while in Boise. We had the the Cardamom Latte, pistachio baklava -‘d raspberry chocolate tart - all were amazingly delicious and a unique experience! Will definitely return the next time we are in the area.

Fabulous!

Sunshine Spice Cafe is a fantastic spot to get quality coffees and pastries. The selection is pretty wide when it comes to pastries and there are any unique coffee drinks to choose from. They do have the basic Latte, cappuccino, etc but offer other beverages that aren’t found at ordinary coffee shops.

Pictured below is the Ube Latte - the purple one, and the other is a spiced Chai Latte. The Ube is apparently made from some type of potato or yam that gives it its unique color. Although I didn’t taste anything too different about it, it was overall a great drink.

I’m not sure what the little desserts are that we tried but they were very delicious. One was a chocolate flavor and the other was more tart, with a lemon and raspberry taste. We did also want to try the baklava as that one is a bit of a rare dessert and they had multiple topping options for it, but we will have to next time.

The overall ambience of the be venue is casual and relaxed. They play cool flamenco music and their chairs are very comfortable. The ladies at the counter are also very pleasant and helpful. So if you’re looking for place to branch out and try some middle-eastern-type drinks, this is definitely the place for you.

This place has really good pastries and coffees. Turkish coffees with not your run of the mill flavors. The Nutella roll could be addictive.
