“Random act of kindness. My mother in law who is 94 and in a nursing home across the street from the store asked for ice cream. When I entered the store and explained situation the owner cheerfully served up a little cup and then gave it to me free. It is great to know people still care and are kind.“

“We’re so fortunate to have this gem of a local bakery nearby. My celiac daughter loves that she can eat ANYTHING from here. I’m not GF, and I think everything is delicious too. We love Sweet Ali’s!“

“Excellent cupcakes! Chef Nikki was a delight to work with and always so professional. Thank you for a delicious experience.“

“Great experience with Creme by Sarah Ashley Bakery! Ashley responded to my order in a timely and efficient manner. I showed her a picture and when I received it, it definitely exceeded my expectations! Everything looked wonderful and tasted even better. What I liked the most, is that the buttercream isn’t too sweet as well. I would highly recommend and will definitely be ordering again for future events. Thank you again!“

“Everyone is so friendly. The cakes are amazing cost friendly and most importantly are delicious!!“

“I’ve gotten my daughters birthday cake from here for the last two years and I don’t think I’ll use any else. Gina has been easy to work with and super creative. The cakes were delicious with amazing decoration and detail. Party goers were super impressed and the cost really wasn’t that much more than a basic cake from grocery stores.“

“The cake is really good and it looks really nice!“

“I recently ordered a cupcake decorating kit through their curbside pickup to send to my sisters and brother-in-law. I'm still very impressed with how responsive the owner, Norma, was to my emails and appreciate how thoughtful she was. She asked if I wanted to include a personal message to my sisters and brother-in-law, and I found out today that all of them really enjoyed the cupcakes. I can only imagine how hard it must be for small businesses like this one during these unprecedented times, but I'm glad that I was able to surprise my sisters and support them at the same time. I'm really looking forward to trying their baked goods in person one day!“

“Went to pick up my free Birthday cake!! Everyone is so nice!!“

“Amazing gelato and great staff. They aren't pet friendly so we were standing outside and eating our desserts and they brought us water for our puppy. We also got some free delicious cookies for our group at the end of the night. Will definitely go back!“

“Good cupcakes nice service !!“

“Had the wonderful opportunity to meet Yusef, the store manager who was so kind and patient amid a very busy and long line. He did such a great job staying calm being the only person working! It was a pleasure to meet him �“

“We got there right when they opened, first ones in. The place was nice and quiet, with that strong ice cream smell right away. The girl helping us was really friendly and welcoming.

I kept it simple and got chocolate ice cream in a waffle cone. The cone was dipped in chocolate, which honestly made it way better. That extra layer added a nice crunch and more sweetness with every bite.

The ice cream itself was smooth and rich, classic chocolate. I also added pecans, and that was a good call. The nuttiness paired really well with the chocolate, gave it a nice balance and a little crunch too.

Simple, but it hit the spot.“

“My husband just ate the Samoa cupcake and he loved it. Rich and delicious. Can't wait to try all the flavors!“
