The Spoon — Restaurant in Stanton

DESSERT DONE RIGHT!! This new establishment recently had a soft opening and being that it is in my neighborhood and we love to support new businesses in Stanton, we just had to stop by. I am sooooo glad we did! (I'm not sure it is truly "Open" yet as the owner told us February 22, however, I saw the open sign up today so stopped by for the second time to get more of their addicting delectables! If you like the unnecessarily oversized "American" desserts, this is not that. They call it their desserts Contemporary, which is hard to define, but I relate them to the desserts you find in France, Japan, etc. They are well portioned (small, how desserts should be), artistically-beautifully designed and taste absolutely divine!!! I have been telling all of my neighbors, friends and family to check it out. You can eat in or take it to go - and if you take it to go, you'll notice the to-go boxes aren't just simple, boring boxes but they also have a fancy yet practical design whether you get 1 small item, many small items or a larger cake/dessert (for more than 1). I hope this small business flourishes. Highly recommend. So far we have tried 4 different types of desserts (see my photos) and my favorite is the Raspberry Chocolate Mousse followed by the "perfect valentines day dessert" heart shaped Dulce De Leche Choco Mousse.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I can't wait to see how well they do. Highly Highly Recommend. The desserts pack the perfect amount of flavor that isn't too overbearing but also allows you to take a small bite at a time and take in all of the flavors without...

This is the perfect spot for families, couples, friends needing the cute dessert fix!

Located in Stanton, The Spoon is the best dessert spot for us that we have been too!

We wanted to have a little fun with our babies through food and yes mission accomplished here!

The Spoon offers teas, coffee, cakes, mousse, and desserts with a lot of character and style in taste and appearance.

What we got

1 Strawberry pig- as soon as the kids saw the strawberry pig we knew this was going to be a hit! The perfect strawberry mousse and my daughter ate it all by herself! 2 Dulce de leche choco mousse- this was a hit with everyone! Im telling you my kids loved it so much they made sure nothing was left( someone made sure it was all gone done to the last crumb! Caught her red handed licking it!) 3 Ube cheesecake- this was a must for us! Ube cheesecake needs to be normalized! It’s so good! 4 Smoking Jasmine- pièce de résistance for the night came out with the nitrogen smoke and look so cool the whole time I was eating it! Yes I ate it all by myself! The Jasmine mousse with Guyabano fruit was so refreshing and new to my palate and really took me back home for some reason!

Drinks Crème brûlée coffee- that top was too pretty to break and drink! Lychee Tea- perfect sweetness and was not artificial tasting at all! Teapot- you need to have with all the desserts you are going to have!

Also we really could not resist to take home the Nutella Sleeping Bear- and tasted like Ferrero in mousse form!

Just go see the buzz for yourself- guaranteed you’ll find a dessert and drink...

Had to stop by after seeing it pop up on Instagram several times. It's located in a plaza with decent parking but all spots were full and we ended up parking in a nearby fast food lot. The shop itself seems cute and had comfy, lounge-type chairs near the front with larger tables in the back. The counter with all the desserts is right when you walk in so you can easily browse and then place your order. Staff was nice.

I was going to get the Nutella bear but after reading reviews, opted not to as I didn't think I would enjoy their version of Nutella. I went for the mango passionfruit cheesecake and thoroughly enjoyed it. Based on reviews, seems like it's a very divisive option too. I didn't think it had much of any cheesecake taste but that didn't matter too much to me. I enjoyed the different flavors and textures it offered and was pleasantly surprised the middle was different than the outer layers! Not too sweet and I thought all the flavors and textures went well together.

At $7 or so per dessert, I think it is a little on the higher end and not something I'd purchase often but if you're in the area and want to check it out once or twice, I'd recommend it as a sweet treat after...
