Yes believe the hype!!! That tres leches cupcake was ridiculously delicious. I don't even remember everything I tasted because I just wanted to eat it ALL and literally everything was scrumptious

We recently celebrated a 90’s themed birthday party, and the cake and cupcakes were absolutely perfect! I requested a German chocolate cake with cyan blue, bold lettering and fun 90’s decorations, and it turned out even better than I imagined. For the cupcakes, I asked for vanilla with blue icing, some with “30” and others with the Virgo sign, and they were such a hit. The cupcakes disappeared within minutes, and I honestly wish I had ordered two dozen because everyone was raving about how delicious they were.

The communication from Shane and the entire team was excellent from start to finish. I also had the pleasure of meeting Madam B, who was so kind and wonderful to work with. Thank you all for going above and beyond to make the process so smooth and the final product so memorable. You truly helped make the celebration extra special!

I hate that I was disappointed by this experience. The cashier was very nice, the place was clean, and the bakery items looked very good! I got the Biscoff Cookie Butter cake slice, which was huge! $10 was a lot, but did the amount of food, it seemed fair.
The unfortunate part was the taste. I really wanted to like it. But the almond extract flavor was overwhelming and unexpected. I tried a couple more bites hoping I would get over it but I just couldn't. I should have read some of the other reviews about the almond flavoring. I hope they can revamp the recipes and do well!

I looked up bakery suggestions and came across several good reviews. I decided to try it last week. I wanted to like this place so badly. Unfortunately I didn’t. The cashier was not very inviting. Even when I let her know it was my first visit… I got nothing. I asked her for suggestions. She pretty much suggested everything. So I decided to try my favorite cake which is yellow cake with chocolate icing. The cake slice was $10 but the slice was huge. The icing was tasty and the cake itself was moist. I thought the cake had a nice crumb to it. The downfall was the flavor of the cake. It had an aftertaste that was not pleasant. It was almost as if too much extract was used, but I couldn’t pinpoint the flavor that was overwhelming. Maybe other cakes are better and I may have tried again but the service didn’t make me want to return.

Was in town and wanted to support a small business. Cookies were ok not the best that I've had and very pricey especially the cake. Great service but probably wouldn't return.

My sister and I had very high hopes for this place I will say. As someone who's been meaning to support this business and see them excel from watching their social media videos I'm sad to say I was highly disappointed with our visit.I had asked the girl what kind of drinks they had and she had no clue what I was talking about.

We had very high hopes for this place I will say. As someone who’s been meaning to support this business and see them excel from watching their social media videos I’m sad to say I was highly disappointed with our visit. We purchased a biscoff cake slice, red velvet and honey bun cake. The total was around $30 total which in my opinion was fairly high for cake. However, we are the type to regularly purchase regardless of pricing if it’s worth and food. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the case. Each cake slice had a very weird after taste similar to if someone washed a pan out without rinsing the soap residue out or an artificial taste. We couldn’t put our finger on if it was the cake itself, the icing or both. The after taste in the biscoff slice was overall the most unbearable however, we did have to end up tossing all 3 slices. The red velvet slice seemed very gummy and wet. We did go about an hour before closing so the parking lot was empty but there were still a good variety of options left for us to choose from. We each ended up feeling slightly nauseous after trying all the 3 of the cake slices only consuming about 1-2 bites from each cake. Overall the atmosphere of this place is cute and the girl who assisted us was nice. Sadly I’m unsure if we’d ever return back again due to the quality. However, I wish this business the best and hope maybe they can switch some things up to better execute the vision.

The staff was extremely nice and helped me and my kids choose which cake slice to choose. The banana pudding cake slice was a favorite. Absolutely delicious. Will be back for some more!!

Mom was very friendly. We came from Ohio. I got the honeybun cake very good and moist and the sweet potato pie. My daughter and niece got strawberry shortcake and red velvet cookie sandwiches. All very good! Would recommend. I wish I could order some more for delivery 🚚 to Ohio.

Hmm! We got four different things to try: yellow chocolate cake, strawberry cake, yellow chocolate cupcake and strawberry cupcake. Let’s start with the price - the cakes were $10 and the cupcakes were $5, which is bananas. The cashier was polite when a question was asked, but other than that there was no greeting, thank you for coming or have a nice day. I was so excited to try the yellow chocolate cake because it’s my absolute favorite, but it was not good or worth $10. It was super sweet and didn’t take like a homemade cake. It’s hard to describe the texture of it. I ate two bites and trashed mine. My husband felt the same way. My daughters enjoyed the cupcakes- I didn’t try those. I prob won’t try this place again, but the slices are pretty huge for the price.

Black Owed!! Service was good. The guy was cereal friendly and was about to answer my questions. I got the strawberry cookie ($3-4) it was cookie and fresh a bit too sweet for me but it was still good. And the hunny bun slice was not too sweet (my preference) was soft. $10 the slice was huge!! So I feel it was worth it because I had some for later!

I ordered the “strawberry shortcake” and was sent a cup of vanilla wafers covered in whipped cream and a disgusting strawberry jelly. The website picture does not match what I received. The cake I purchased was equivalent to chocolate cornbread. If you’re looking for a delicious dessert, I would avoid this bakery.

Super disappointed. Asked clearly if anything had tree nuts in it as I am allergic and the girl said she didn’t really know, claimed most shouldn’t have whole nuts but “maybe almond extract or something”. Was not willing to risk anything at that point. Super sad she did not know what was in the actual baked goods or didn’t have an allergen menu. Everything looked great, but didn’t get to try. :( people with allergies beware.
