Today is my Mom's 75th birthday.
She has food allergies, so I expect to pay more for a good cake.
I ordered a small chocolate cake with vanilla frosting that's also gluten/soy/corn free. With the extra $15 for corn-free powdered sugar I paid $79. I told them it was for a celebration and asked them to put a 75 on top. They told me that, due to the ingredient limitations, they couldn't color the frosting and that the 75 would be white on white. I approved that and told them to just make it look nice.
This is what I got. Did a professional decorator do this? It's yellow (is that even safe to eat based on what they told me on the phone when I ordered?). It's not proportional. It isn't even remotely celebratory looking. I could've done it better myself. I'm so disappointed. 3 stars because at least the cake is good.
I, well, I really mean we, have been shopping at Franz bakery outlet for years. For me, I come in for the gluten-free breads. Now I wish they had gluten-free bagles and english muffins.
So much good stuff. If you can live with being a pretentious, gluten-free, almond milk, free range, over educated, prius driving, composting, making your own sourdough type person... and have a trust fund to support your trip. I mean, I guess that is most of the Proctor dwellers anyway.
I ordered desserts from Spilled Butter for both my birthday and my wedding and I can say both were some of the best decisions I've made. All of her baked goods are irresistible. I picked out more than enough desserts for the people attending, and even then, took only the tiniest bit of leftovers home. No one could stop eating the desserts. Even the gluten free ones were cleared out!
She's professional, kind, and makes the best desserts. I'd highly recommend her for any and all events you might need food!
I wish I could give Dessert Therapy ALL the stars in the universe!! Such a godsent as someone with a terrible gluten intolerance. The donuts were warm and DELICIOUS. Cookies had the perfect amount of salt in them. PLEASE try them!
This place has some amazing treats and the customer service is amazing as well. :)
I ordered cupcakes for my twin's birthday party and everyone loved them, especially the strawberry shortcake cupcake, which is my favorite too. It's a must try! My oldest daughter is super picky but absolutely LOVES the chocolate cupcake! We had a child at the party that couldn't have gluten or dairy and they were able to make a really great cupcake for that child as well.
When I picked up the cupcakes for the party, the owner's son helped me carry the order to the car. I forgot his name but he's super sweet and I really appreciated his help!
Every time we drive by the store, my twins shout, "Love by the slice" and talk about how good the cupcakes are.
In addition to cupcakes, they have many other great treats as well. The other day I tried some strawberry cobbler and oh my gosh, so very YUMMY!!!
We're so lucky to have this great bakery in our neighborhood. Myself and my girls look forward to stopping by and trying many more wonderful treats.
