What a magical find of beautiful and decadent desserts! It was my husband's 45th birthday and he'd had a rough week. He didn't really feel like celebrating or leaving the house even. At 5pm I did an internet search for gluten-free bakeries (I know, a little last minute) to see if I could get him a little treat to bring a bit of sweetness to his day, and this company came up. I showed him a couple of pictures and his whole energy changed. He said, "they close in an hour. Let's go!" It's a bit of an adventure finding it (part of the experience) but when we did we were greeted so warmly by the proprietor and made to feel right at home. She took us on a tour and introduced us to the wide array of delectable offerings. There's something for everyone here, and we walked away with enough to feed a large party, even though it was just a party of two. Good thing they freeze and keep so well, we'll be enjoying them for a while. Here's what we tried: BANANAS FOSTER - I got this for me, but after each taking a bite my husband gave me "the look" and I knew I needed to hand it over. RASPBERRY CHOCOLATE - classic combo. Rich and perfect blend of sweet and tartness. BLOOD ORANGE W/ALMOND FLOUR POLENTA CRUST - this ended up being my favorite. I loved the contrasting textures and refreshing lightness. COFFEE BEAN CAKE - I didn't even get to try it because some family stopped by and devoured it before I could. I'm taking that as a sign it was delicious. POG - reminiscent of a childhood favorite drink. Smooth creamy layers with a delightful orange-passion sauce. Yummmmmm! Overall we loved every single thing we tried. Creamy, smooth, well-balanced perfection. Do yourself a favor and try it. You can't go wrong. Thank you for turning a somber birthday into a fun, delicious and...
Read moreAbsolutely delicious! I picked up a Gusto di Limone and an individual carrot cake and royal raspberry. The Gusto Di Limone was my favorite, and the lemon silk was absolute perfection.
Pick up was easy: the bakery is on the top floor of an older office building, delightfully tucked away at the end of the "pink" line on the second floor. It's not your traditional storefront, as they mostly send out their desserts, but very easy to find if you follow the directions on their website. Just find the stairs, go up, and then follow the signs and historical adverts to the door!
I actually found it really refreshing to see a bakery that was so clearly geared towards the people working there, and not trying to put on this pristine facade to the public. I want baked goods that taste good and look good, and this is the place to get them!
Phyllis the owner was there, and I really enjoyed getting to talk to her and learn more about the desserts and the business.
I will 100% be purchasing again! Phyllis was kind enough to give me a coupon, which I'm definitely...
