Lori made our daughter's wedding cake and did a lovely job! It tasted wonderful, especially the strawberry with homemade strawberry jam and you could tell it was from scratch. We really enjoyed the leftovers too!Photo Credit: Ginger Snap Studios, GA

Lori is amazing! So glad we found her for our daughter's wedding. We took away a box of assorted cakes and cookies .. omgGo have her key lime pound cake. Never had anything so Yummy!!! Toffee cookies tastes like such quality ingredients are used. 150% customer service and definitely a cut above grocery store mass produced bakeries. You taste real butter, quality vanilla and just awesome.
Jun 24 · Flying MamaThanks Lori, the cupcakes were a huge success at our luncheon. You’re the best!
Apr 25 · Chuck BAmazing Banana pudding. The best chicken salad. Cupcakes, cookies, brownies are all great!
Aug 25 · Chris RollinsWe stopped in this bakery while passing through Cleveland. The sweets looked delicious, but we didn't come for sweets— we came for coffee. My hot chocolate was good, and the coffee was decent. I left off star because the coffee was made in a Keiureg. I feel like a bakery should have fresher ground and brewed coffee.Our friend got a chicken salad sandwich. It looked really simple— but then when we ate it it was absolutely delicious! There were signs for a spaghetti lunch special which we just missed. I imagine it would have been awesome, even if a bakery is an odd place to order spaghetti.The service here is great! It is so quiet and friendly and charming and peaceful. The ambient is really clean and kind of homey. I definitely would like to stop by here again with friends if we come through the area again.
