Not only that, but I wanted the cake to be representative of Alaska -- the fact that they offer Alaskan-specific flavors was icing on the cake (pun intended!). I got an Alaskan Fireweed flavored cake (which was delicious) AND was able to get gluten free cupcakes in the same flavor for my guests with dietary restrictions. Everyone absolutely loved the cake and cupcakes and I couldn't be happier with how it all turned out.

Northern Wings Café Oh my, here's a little gem that I have…read morenever noticed before, but then again they've only been open since April or so. I just saw the word café as I was driving by. It turns out to be a full-service espresso joint with in-house baked goods. Mostly cupcakes and cookies. There are a few brunch or lunch type of menu items but it is fairly limited. The food that was in the cooler looked good, there were also a few hot dishes to be offered. I was visiting with the person behind the counter and I started to pick up real quick that this person had skin in the game and a passion for baking cakes, cupcakes, pies, and she added that she could make any dessert that a person could want. I am well aware that the most important ingredient in any kitchen is passion. It is apparent that they are buying in bulk! She told me that she will be making a lot of pies for Thanksgiving, pretty much any flavor that you could want. Custom cakes are the specialty. When a gawdy, airbrushed, cake with a doll on it from Carrs it's just a little bit too tacky for your occasion, this will be your place! I wound up walking out with three different flavors of cookies. I just wanted to make sure that they were good if I was going to write about the place. They were! My doctor says that I've got no place eating cookies. But hey, if I'm going to break bad, this is where I'm going to do it. The cookies reminded me of mom's kitchen when I was a little boy. I think I teared up a little bit when I got to the chocolate chip. I can say that they earned a very solid four stars. The fifth star is always reserved for consistency. Keep up the good work and you'll see number five soon. I look forward to furthering my research!

Stopped by because my mother now has me completely addicted--and I can see why…read more I picked up a variety of their tarts along with a chocolate cake filled with raspberry, and everything was absolutely delicious. Each tart had its own unique flavor, perfectly balanced and not too sweet, which made it way too easy to keep reaching for another. The chocolate raspberry cake was a standout--rich, moist, and layered with just the right amount of tartness from the raspberry filling. What really surprised me was how satisfying everything tasted without feeling heavy or overly sweetened--and even better, it didn't spike my blood sugar the way most desserts do. You can tell there's intention behind the ingredients and how everything is made. They also have plenty of other baked goods like cookies, brownies, and more, so there's definitely something for everyone. The staff are friendly, and the bakery itself is so cute--such a welcoming little spot that makes the experience even better. If you're looking for treats that feel a little more thoughtful but still indulgent, this spot is definitely worth checking out.

Ordered a wedding cake for a casual elopement…read more Cake execution: pretty awful. To be honest, the cake wasn't all that pretty to begin with but it got worse as the day went on and it thawed out more. Picked up my cake around 4pm and by 7pm it was a tilted Mad Hatter cake. I assure you, it was not damaged during transport. When we cut into the cake to serve slices, an entire chunk of cake was missing from the bottom tier and "spackled in" with frosting. This caused the cake to collapse and the top tier slid off to one side. There was also no dowel support between to the top and bottom tiers. Just a cardboard round which slid on top of the buttercream. That probably would have been ok if it weren't for the missing chunk of cake. People asked me if I made the cake myself. Hahaha. It was pretty embarrassing. But luckily this was for a very casual elopement, not a big wedding, otherwise I would have been pretty pissed. My parents did pay a decent amount of money for this, roughly $275. I've seen far better from Walmart's bakery. The shop got stars for the following... Cake flavor: very good! I ordered the champagne cake with strawberry filling for the bottom tier and chocolate cake with chocolate fudge filling for the top tier. All covered in white chocolate buttercream frosting. The cake and fillings were delicious. The frosting was a little gritty, I assume from using granulated sugar, but still tasty. A little too sweet for my liking but it was still good. The cake layers were nice and thick. Customer service: Great! Response time from the shop was excellent. They promptly responded to my emails on the quote and design request. I called the shop when it was about time to pick up my cake and didn't reach anyone at first, but they called me right back. I guess I could have called the shop to let them know the issues with the cake but I have a feeling once the cake leaves their shop in good condition, they would put the blame on the customer. I just won't use them again, for cakes anyways. Anyways, thanks for reading and check out my Mad Hatter cake.

I try to visit once a week! Just a heads-up: if you arrive after 1:00 PM, they do sometimes sell out of baked goods. Everything here is amazing, especially the croissants, sandwiches, and boba. If it's your first time, you have to try their "croffle" (it looks like a waffle but tastes like a croissant)--the coffee flavor is my absolute favorite, followed closely by the strawberry matcha! Their boba drinks are delicious and very reasonably priced, and the Vietnamese sandwich is also fantastic. Highly recommend!

We also picked up the raspberry almond polenta cake $18, blueberry chamomile cake $17, and the chocolate croissant. They said to take cakes out an hour before, we cut them up and we dove right in. My favorite taste wise was the polenta cake, And the croissant. But being honest everything was kind of bland, and tasteless. We could taste the polenta cake but it also was dry. I know it's polenta it may be a little dry I get it, it was my fav after all. The cupcake was a huge disappointment! But the onion poppy seed roll was AMAZING 10/10!
