On 11/20/2025 Meghan Verhulst had this to say:
My husband had 9 cupcakes delivered to me for my birthday and they were really delicious. The delivery guy was also so sweet and wished me happy birthday. The cupcakes are very dense which I like but others may not. Think Crumbl cookie texture. The white cupcake in particular was very dense, others not quite as dense. They were beautifully decorated as well. Will order from them in the future!

My wife and I come to town for our anniversary every year and decided to find some sweets. We pulled up and walked in like we owned the place.🤣 I did notice the lights on the display were off but just figured they were trying to save a few bucks. I will make this short but DUMB DUMB me didn't even think of asking if they were open which she was not... They owner was super understanding and we did get some great cupcakes, wish I would have tried the multi layered cake and will next time and of course make sure they are open. We so appreciate the understanding and the cupcakes were amazing. Sorry for barging in like we did and please keep up the great work. If you are in town this is a MUST stop for cakes, cookies coffee and cup cakes. Thanks again, Todd & Val

Decent place. The cookies have their own unique flavor here. Kinda flaky, kinda soft. Pretty good marshmallow cookie and choc chip

This is a delightful place with the most delicious blueberry scones I’ve ever had in my life! We also enjoyed a blueberry biscuit last time we were there. Charming place with wonderful service. Highly recommend.
