My husband and I hopped in here after an appointment down the street and the smell as soon as you walk in is so delicious! The staff were so kind and welcoming and walked us through the options. Everything is handmade in house and that is certainly reflected in the prices! We ordered a espresso truffle, a pumpkin spice truffle, a milk chocolate turtle, an iced tea and a chocolate pretzel stick for $17.

The pretzel was good. I really wish they offered samples or something because they had some pretty unique combinations and treats that I would possibly purchase, but its a little too pricey to hope.

The two ladies who took care of us are literally the nicest people I've encountered. In any establishment. Ever. They were so welcoming, personable, and just plain happy. You could tell they loved their job and took pride in what and who they were serving. We were so full from dinner and far from home(and not immediately going home either), that options were limited on what we could buy. But, let me tell you, the options were not limited. They had so many items to choose from that it was actually a bit daunting. We settled on a small 99-cent almond biscotti, a single shot of espresso on ice, and a small vanilla cone. It was all delicious and we enjoyed everything. Thank you for the next level service. Keep it up! We would definitely go back if we're in...
