I usually rely on a west side baker for all my cakes, but thought I would try a new place. My standards are pretty high so I don't usually expect bakeries to meet them. I took a chance ordering my daughter's 1st birthday smash cake, cupcakes, and frosted cookies from Stan's. Stan's stuck out, because I recently had one of their "Big Dupa" doughnuts...heaven on earth! The Big Dupa is a cassata doughnut, that I would rather have over cassata cake any day!This should be on every "Must Try" list in Cleveland.
I gave the baker a picture of what I wanted (A bee hive cake/cupcakes) and Stan's exceeding my high standards ten fold! Not only did the bee hives come out exactly what I pictured, but even better. The next test was how it all tasted. This sealed the deal. The cake tasted moist and delicious! The frosting was sweet (which I like) and the cookies were the BEST! They reminded me of Osman's Pies in Hudson (long closed) they used to sell my favorite cookies. These are better! The other highlight, everything was reasonably priced.
