In sum, I love this place. The majority of any given item I have eaten here has been spot-on flavor, nicely balanced levels of sweetness, and consistent.
Cupcakes, oh how I long for thee! My favorite of their offerings is the mocha cupcake with chantilly buttercream icing. Oh dear, thinking about the rich chocolate cake and fresh chantilly with a hint of sweetness to offset the decadence of the chocolate. Umm. Next up, on my top 3 cupcakes is the lemon raspberry. A totally different spin showcasing they can due justice to fruit as well as they did to chocolate. The raspberry is sweet and zingy coupled against the lemon cupcake is refreshing and delightful. Lastly, the coconut cream. I think the coconut cream can use a tad more. More what you say- well more roasted coconut flavor, using a chantilly topping instead of just buttercream. Not sure why the chantilly topping is not used more on other cupcakes and seemingly reserved for just the mocha. Not worries, the coconut was not bad. It was tasty. But it missed that wow factor I believe the mocha has and the lemon raspberry possess.
My co worker lives in this area and brings us tasty treats from the bakery about once every 2 weeks. As such, I've been able to sample numerous other offerings. She brought in a chocolate mocha cake with chantilly buttercream last year. Absolutely amazing. Even the women I work with that were dieting could not resist this gooey, amazingly, and creamy treat!
I've also had their lemon pound cake. Superb. Cake donuts, nicely balanced amount of sugar and fat. As I left licking my fingers at work and I do not even care who is staring!
These bakers know how to do lemon flavors justice. I've had many of their cookies- I'm not even a big thumbprint fan and they have me sold. Crumbly, sweet, still moist and not dry. Their chocolate chip cookies have the right balance of chocolate to cookie ratio where the cookie isn't dominated by chips. The sizes are appropriate too. Not too small and not gigantic either.
Their danishes are delicious but even better in my opinion for the breakfast goodies is the cranberry orange loaf. It is tart and sweet swirling within moist and tender loaf.
Overall, the consistency of their products seem spot on. I still have more offerings I need to try: pineapple upside down (of which I am a hard sell as I make it homemade and it is awesome), any of their muffins, their chocolate bunt cake and of course the maple bacon cupcake. I somehow missed this when I went their last time. I kicked myself on the way home but by then it was too late. I will save that review for an update =)
