| - I can't in good conscience give Nutmeg 5*s. Is the storefront appealing? Yes. Do the items look good, out of what was left on a Saturday afternoon around 2pm? They looked fine, but again, there wasn't much left with all the baked goods on top of the front counter.
In addition to not having much items left, I found the prices a bit on the high side. We're talking more than what a croissant/cupcake would cost at Whole Foods. At $3, cupcakes were the same price as Bake Sale, but much smaller.
The only croissants that were left were Pumpkin Chocolate and although I love the idea of incorporating something seasonal like pumpkin into the beloved croissant, the croissant was more of a slightly dry bread than a flaky pastry.
Butter tarts were also $3, more expensive than The Maids' Cottage across the street, and not nearly as good. If you're going to be offering a product that a neighbour is also offering (and has been for a long time), personally I'd either make my item larger/same price or cheaper.
If you're the only show in town/on the strip, Nutmeg is not a bad option although I still find that nothing really stood out to justify the price points.
