Today I got the Konign Amann (caramelized croissant), Canelé, and the sea salt slabes. All of them were delicious and had perfect sweetness. The Konign Amann (caramelized croissant) was heavenly!! Definitely will be going back to try everything else. They have wide variety of bread, cakes, pastries, sandwiches, and coffee/tea. The service was great- the staff were polite and helpful.

My mother had picked up this cake for my birthday and the entire party was extremely disappointed. To charge that much money for a "bakery" cake for a special day and it be MOLDY is pure robbery. Not a single part of that cake was good to eat. Genuinely surprised none of us or our kids got sick from this cake. God I hope they go out of business.

I was seeking a cake not frosted with Buttercream, or not frosted at all, so I thought I'd give this a try. I really wanted the Taro Cake but whimped out when considering the taste of who I'd be sharing it with, but did get to try it. It taste, both in profile & texture, like a sweet potato. Purchased a Vanilla Strawberry Fresh Cream Cake. It was light in texture, not terribly different from Angel Food Cake, but absent of other flavors. Less sweet cakes often have overtones of almond or citrus that shine through, but this tasted like a vanilla cake minus the sugar. When I sliced into it I was hoping for more of a strawberry puree inside, but it appeared to be just sliced strawberries & a whole lot of unsweetened whipped cream. A little 1 dimensional for me. It was packaged beautifully w/ a lady finger & birthday candle. The gentleman working the counter was super helpful & I look forward to trying the Matcha & other flavors in the future. This one was a miss for me. While I barely have a sweet tooth, I need a little more going on than what was presented. That's a preference, not a criticism.

My wife I and I stumbled upon this dessert option while out on a date in the Exton area. We read…read morethat their cheesecake was excellent, so that got us in the door! The woman at the counter was kind and smily, helping us to know what the different flavor options were like. We ultimately bought two slices each to share over the next few days at home, but we immediately broke into the Biscoff cheesecake and knew we had chosen wisely. This is hands down the best cheesecake I've ever had. A beautiful layer of caramel on top, perfectly dense cheesecake filling, and delicious cookie crust. I could write a song about it. Maybe I will. This is a 5/5 cheesecake. Maybe more. We also tried the lemon blueberry cheesecake, which I would rate a 4/5. The filling seemed to be more lemon than blueberry, but there were blueberries inside. I would have loved a blueberry swirl as well. But I'm nitpicking. The third flavor we tried was the millionaire cheesecake, with chocolate crunch, chocolate layer (maybe caramel as well, I'm not sure) and chocolate crust. Another excellent flavor, 4.5/5. If you're keeping track you'll know I only mentioned 3 flavors, but we bought 4 slices. That's because we each had to have our own slice of the Biscoff! It's that good! GO GET SOME!

I should have stayed with the chocolate mousse, instead I went with the Black Forest. I have to say I was disappointed with the cake. For $50 for a small cake they used maraschino cherries, and the middle layer was a solid pink filling, where the woman that helped me described it as cherry sauce with chocolate chunks. It was listed as egg free, and I didn't really understand how different the cake would taste without eggs.

Now I could tell you all about how perfectly tasty everything is. From the classic banana puddings (I prefer the caramel version myself,) to the cookies, to the pineapple upside-down mini cakes. Yes, I could tell you that. But I want to speak to something deeper. I want to speak to belonging and community; and to fairness. As a biracial person with a brown sister, I feel the pull to support black and brown businesses. It's not a secret. And sometimes you do it, and sometimes you privately think "Damn. I wanna be supportive but this place is a mess." Then there's Sweet Life. NOT that. FILLED with good product at a great price, delivered by owners and staff who actually give a damn about being loving and supportive to all different types of people. And did I mention the sweets are POPPIN'? And to that statement of fairness. Today I came in to place an order, and when the price came up, for a moment I thought "Damn. That is a lot higher than I remembered, but I am not about to question them. They set the price and that price is what they deserve." So I paid. But then I noticed there was more in my bag that I'd asked for, and that there had been a miscommunication. When I tell you that this miscommunication was corrected with swiftness *AND* a smile. No shade. No drama. Just an "Ooops, oh well, here's your refund on the balance." I know this seems very basic but we all know it isn't. We have all been in that awkward situation where as a customer we have to point out an error, and the vendor turns it into a Shakespearan tragedy. Not Sweet Life. "Oops. Sorry! Fixed. Love you." So, to recap: Stunningly delicious sweets. Prices fair as hell. Communicative, inclusive staff doing the right thing. You need to take those money dollers and haul your ass over here TODAY. Now...where did I put my insulin pen?
