Cupcakes, cookies, croissants, oh my!
This little bakery and cafe has won me over! Hands down!
I stopped in since I was in the neighborhood going to a friend's house and I had been wanting to check it out based on the other reviews. I ended up with three cupcakes: creme brulee, chocolate molten, and red velvet.
Some thoughts:
** All of the desserts displayed were immaculate. The presentation is amazing and very professional. Any of them would be perfect to take over to someone's house or devour solo. Chocolate and wine anyone...?
** You won't break the bank here. The prices are very reasonable and worth every penny. These aren't your local grocer's baked goods, we're talkin' gourmet here!
** The cupcakes had amazingly great flavors, but were a little too rich for me. I like the cake part more of cupcakes and I only needed about half of the frosting, but that doesn't make for the same great presentation. For those frosting mongers out there, you won't be disappointed. Hook up the sugar IV and enjoy!
** Slade might just be the most genuinely nice, courteous, passionate-about-his-work entrepreneur I've found in this city. He really takes it up a notch when it comes to personal service. He answered any questions I had, told me about what's up and coming soon, and you could just tell he really takes pride in what he does.
** The variety is bonkers here and I can't wait until I am back again to try something else from that delectable case o' desserts.
** Slade has a blog and teaches cooking classes, so take advantage of both. I plan to eventually!
Thanks Slade for a great experience here! I will definitely be back very soon. =)
