We were originally at Rock star Donuts and left to go to Aurelio's. We entered and donuts on a tray were just sitting on the top case open to the elements which I found unappealing. Spent 15.00 on 4 donuts that tasted old, were hard, obviously not fresh and crumbled as you bit into them. I had to toss them out. The hot breakfast sandwich and dumbling soup my BF said were very good. I will not return for donuts and will continue to get mine fresh at Rock Star. I like Aurelio's but unfortunately this has turned me away.

Super cute little shop! Awesome place to get cupcakes for birthdays although it’s not my favorite kind of icing, the kiddos love it which is what matters.

My bible study group went to the old Candlelight Inn last week, which is now a bakery and eatery. Lovely decor in the main room with a fireplace. Pretty good latte. Desserts looked great but I didn't buy. The side room they put us in was cold and impersonal. Almost all of the old candlelight inn decor is gone🥺. The counter servers were not friendly but not rude. The owner is very friendly.. The panini was ok. Kind of plain and too thin. IMHO, overpriced. But I understand. Everything is sky high. I suggested to the owner that he turn his front room that faces route 40 into a gift/country craft type of shop. He loved the idea! 🥰 I'll certainly be back!

I love the new building, it's cozy and a great place to enjoy some coffee. However, I would reccomend that as a business you add an extra shot to your espresso drinks. I got and iced mocha and it was overwhelming with the amount of milk, just tasting like chocolate milk.

A 16oz usually has 2 shots of espresso, 20oz 3 shots and 24oz 4 shots. The cup I recieved was very large and the only size option.

Just my thoughts(: even though this is primarily a bakery, it could have a lot of potential for people to sit and enjoy coffee with their baked goods!

I ordered a cake from here and the buttercream isn't grainy, it's smooth and well blended. This is a family of a few buttercream haters but it's so good. The cake itself is soft and moist and we also got the raspberry filling. Awesome stuff!

It’s unfortunate but Aurelio’s food quality has gone downhill lately.

I wish I didn’t have to say it but it’s just the case. Everything had gotten drier and drier and it seem less care is put into the work. With The cakes, you can literally peel the image or frosting off like a layer, very weird

What a wonderful place! I ordered a cake for my son’s birthday and it was made so perfectly. It was a last minute order and they were able to squeeze it into their schedule for me. The cake was delicious and I tried some donuts and cookies and the donuts are the best donuts I’ve had around here yet! The cookies are so delicious and I will be going back as much as I can! I highly recommend going here, it’s so cute inside too!

Our fruit tree and wedding desserts were truly stunning, thanks to Aurelio. He brought our vision to life and exceeded all our expectations. We received countless compliments from our guests, and we were so happy with how everything turned out. We can’t recommend Aurelio highly enough!
