Review: I’m celiac and have very limited options with baked goods. So I was excited to come in and try the food here. I had it in Florida years before at the location there and it was good. The employee was lovely and very nice. But the cake was absolutely gross. I got the Tres Leches. It tasted nothing like tres leches. It was spongey and bitter and the icing on top was so hard it cracked. Probably one of the worst things I’ve eaten. It was $15 and went directly into the trash after one bite.

Review: Amazing, yummy, desserts that are gluten free and vegan. I ate the chocolate chip sammie and a heart sugar cookie. Both were soft, delicious, and just the right amount of sweet without being heavy.

Review: Let say everything else was great except the cake itself. I’m not a vegan myself so not sure if my tastebud is different though, but definitely I’ve had far much better vegan cake and bakery that are so yummy that you don’t even noticed it’s vegan, this place is nothing close to that, you 100% will at least notice it’s not made from milk or real butter. I didn’t like the striking taste of soy (or something similar) in the cake sponge. It’s just felt like drinking sweetened soy milk out of the box. The cake sponge flavor was not smooth but more like striking sweet. I had to pause for 1hr to eat a piece that was 1/10 of the cake. Outside layer was coconut. It’s just too sweet and smelled too coconut. I don’t know if it’s real coconut or more flavor was added to it. Overall, the flavors jumped out too much and absolutely didn’t go together. The shop smells very nice so I expected a lot but it’s kind of disappointing, sorry!
