Bella Christie's bakers and pastry chefs make cakes, cookies, cupcakes, and pastries. They even make custom cakes and event tables for weddings, birthdays, and other special events. Cakes are available in about a dozen flavors (e.g., vanilla, chocolate, banana, and hazelnut) with about a few dozen flavors of fillings (e.g., almond custard, mango mousse, raspberry jam, peach compote, espresso buttercream, and fruit). When I entered this business, I saw two display cases that were full of macarons, cheesecakes, mini cupcakes, cupcakes, cookies, and brownies. An employee immediately and kindly greeted me. As I was selecting my desserts, the employee carefully bagged and boxed them. She accurately rang up my purchase, and she thanked me. Here are my reviews for the desserts: Strawberry milkshake cookie - $2.75 - 4.5 stars - This cookie looked the prettiest in the display and had the most unique-sounding flavor. It was pink and had sprinkles and white chips mixed in. The cookie was a large size, and it was fresh and moist. I liked the strawberry flavor. Strawberry milkshake cupcake - $4.25 - 4.5 stars - Can you tell that I like strawberry milkshakes? :) This cupcake was a good size, and it consisted of moist pink cake that had strawberry pieces mixed in. It was topped with fresh, creamy strawberry and white icing with sprinkles. On top was a paper straw, and I put it in my mouth because I had assumed that it was white chocolate--oops! Lemon blueberry cupcake - $4.25 - 4.5 stars - This cupcake was also a good size. The cake was lemon yellow with a few blueberries mixed in. On top was a blueberry-flavored buttercream icing that was topped with two fresh blueberries and a lemon gummy. I enjoyed these flavors. Turtle cheesecake - $4.50 - No rating - My husband ate this cheesecake. He said, "It was fine." One additional thing that I noticed was that the plastic tray that held the cupcakes was type 6 plastic, which is not recyclable in our community. I wonder if the owners could explore other options for the tray.

I love both of those things and rarely find them mixed in the same flavor. I had my ice cream sandwich a few days after I bought it I didn't taste freezer burnt or anything. The vanilla tasted fresh like they used real vanilla and the cookie was not too hard. I was served pretty quickly and she was also friendly and I like the different items you could buy in addition to ice cream it felt a little bit like a boutique. I didn't try any coffee because I don't like it, but they have a very extensive menu of flavors. I'll be back.

I believe it is Perry's brand rather than house-made, but it's still very delicious. I ordered Birthday Cake and White Lightning in a dish. White Lightning is a very nice rich dark chocolate base with mint swirls mixed throughout, delicious and different from any other mint ice cream I've had before. The Birthday Cake flavor is sweet, with delicious blue buttercream frosting and sprinkles mixed in. They give generous sized scoops, so 2 are filling and worth the $5 price. Recommend checking here out and seeing the rotating flavors.

During my most recent visit, the menu listed soft serves, frozen yogurts, sundaes, shakes, floats, slushees, milkshakes, and more. I wanted to treat my dog Daisy to an ice cream. I did not see it listed on the menu, so I asked the employee. She spoke nicely with me, and she explained that a pup cup is vanilla ice cream. It would be nice to see additional flavors such as peanut butter. I bought it for $1.40. It had a milk bone on top. My dog ate about half of the ice cream and all of the milk bone. I think that she would have eaten all of it if she were not tired and hot. Some outdoor seating is available here.

I took a couple of minutes to decide what I wanted to buy, and the employee patiently waited. I selected one pecan turtle, one s'more, and one deep-dish caramel chocolate chip cookie.

All three treats tasted very fresh and sweet. I rate the pecan turtle as 4.5 stars, the s'mores as 5 stars, and the caramel chocolate chip cookie as 4 stars.
