So glad I…read morepopped in to take a peek as I ended up getting a few cookies to share with my family All the choices sounded so delicious so I had to ask the baker Kat (who is also the co-founder of this sweet shop) what was her favorite and the popullar choices. She recommended the Lemon Curd as she mentioned she loves lemon. I love lemon too so I had to purchase that. I was able to maintain some self-control and got a couple other cookies: Dubai and Banana Biscoff. Both the Banana Biscoff and Lemon Curd had a soft filling, while the Dubai had a crunchy filling. All cookies were delicious. They were such a big hit at home with my family. Cookies were not overly sweet and had wonderful texture: crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and filled with bold flavors. What a neighborhood gem! I'll definitely be returning.

They're definitely on the pricier side, but to be fair, they're huge and really tasty. I tried the Dubai chocolate cookie and it was rich without being overly sweet--a solid pick if you're a chocolate lover. Not an everyday treat for the wallet, but worth it if you're nearby and craving something indulgent.

The inside of the shop is so cute with a bunch of cupcake decorations. We ordered a Taro Cupcake and a Chocolate Tres leches cupcake. They were both very delicious and I preferred the Taro cupcake. It really tastes like Taro. I thought the chocolate tees leches cake would be a little more moist. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and were helped right after. You order at the counter that has the cupcakes on display. There were a handful of people there ordering cupcakes!

All of the offerings look so good, but I opted for something classic. My personal preference for a "perfect" chocolate chip cookie is crispy edges and a soft center -- and I found all of that in Christine's chocolate chip walnut. Love the dark chocolate and the browned butter to offset the sweetness of the cookie. Great crumb structure and in spite of its thickness, it never felt doughy. Close to $7 for one cookie and worth the splurge!

A little bake shop with some big taste! Everything looks so amazing, it's hard to choose what to…read moretry. Thankfully there are many great options, so you can't go wrong. Ham & Cheese Croissant: Perfect for when you want a savory breakfast treat. The first noticeable aspect is all the melted cheese crust on top, for a great umami and crispy layer. Inside, even more cheese, this is a gooier texture. Plus some thick rolled ham. Feels like a meal! Raspberry Roll: Such a fun spin on the cinnamon roll. The fruit cream on top is so eye catching! Much more indulgent than a typical cinnamon roll glaze. Inside, there's bits of raspberries baked along the rolled dough. Blueberry Roll: I think I actually prefer this one over the raspberry roll. Got a gooey flavor profile, like a blueberry muffin, without the tart tang of a raspberry. I could seriously see myself picking this over a cinnamon roll. Flan: Feels a bit bougier than regular flan, since it's encased in a flaky golden crust. Jiggly and eggy, with just the right sweetness. Though I did miss all the wet brown sauce that's found in regular flan. Coconut Mango Passion Fruit Entremet: Really enjoyed how there was so much going on with this! There was the gem-like super sweet fruit gel on top for a nice pop of flavor. Another layer of coconut cream, to really set the tropical vibe. Some fluffy cake and lots of oozing passionfruit. I'm a big fan of fruit desserts, so loved this. Quiche Lorraine: Loved how this was more creamy than eggy, meaning they got it right. Found it interesting that all the ham bits were towards the bottom, so the top was smooth. So rich, I had to eat this in different sessions. Baked Egg Croissant: Pretty much a complete breakfast with egg, cheese and croissant. Savory and filling. Though I think I preferred the Ham & Cheese Croissant, since ham makes everything better. Chocolate Éclair: Small, but mighty. A very rich and dense layer of chocolate ganache filling inside a light choux cylinder. Loved the creaminess. Brisket Chausson: Kinda like an empanada, but with a much flakier dough. The brisket was rich and meaty. Though had a bit of a pinkish color. Veggie Croissant: Looks like a savory danish. Loved the hefty amount of cheese and the partially cooked tomatoes. Royal: Really nice layered chocolate cake. There was some sort of ganache on the outside and nice crunchy praline like layer inside under the dense cake. Quite sophisticated combo of textures and flavors.

It had some frangipane in the middle and was topped with almonds which gave it a nice crunch. I don't usually go for almond flavored things but it looked so good! The olive loaf was huge! One of the bigger loafs of bread I've bought. I liked that they cut up the green olives for the loaf since it was more evenly distributed throughout. The bread was nice, had a good amount of olives, and the crust was not too hard so it was easy to eat. Definitely recommend to stop by for a loaf if you need some bread! It's way better than bread at the supermarket.

This baker was at the first February 2021 Saturday Ferry Farmers market as announced in the weekly CUESA newsletter. Walking over halfway through my shopping mission, I waited as a customer finished his purchase in studying there menu and eventually buying a few items. With a friend being gluten sensitive, I noticed there were a few items that would fit her requirements and picked them up for her. As they put that together, I decided to try two menu items. I started with the With love from Berlin (almond bar) (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=ytuJeNuqpY1aV-CsK1halA&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q) later that afternoon; it was delicious and, unlike many gluten free pastries, it was not dense nor dry. A few days later, I succumbed to temptation and tried the Almost famous (double chocolate cookie) (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Mb_Eo21HbnyuBvw2yr2_LA&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q); a chocolate cookie laden with white chocolate chips, this was on the cakey side but still delicious especially as I paired with with a cup of tea. A telling compliment was that my friend called me later that Saturday and asked me about the price before telling me to make sure to stop there again next Saturday. I need to study their menu a little closer before that to see if there's anything else that piques my interest. Another nice perk was the jar on the far left end of the table (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=2wMfTp0zBOJ3CU7SvZI7vg&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q). They offered doggie treats for our fur baby which she bagged just like she did my purchases. When I got home, I studied their Instagram profile as well as the displayed flyers at their table which gave me great insight on her mission and vision in creating her baked goods. Needless to say, see you later today!

Bite Me Quickly: Quite a familiar treat; a coconut macaroon dipped in dark chocolate. Felt more airy than a typical macaroon, maybe because there was less sweet binding stuff. Classic Florentine: I love sweet crunchy Florentine cookies, but this was far from classic. Instead of being crispy all around, there was a moist cakey bit with strong orange flavors. under the crunchy almonds Really delicious, even better than the classic version! Cranberry Love: A cranberry, macadamia, white chocolate cookie. I'd never guess it was vegan. Quite tasty combo of flavors and textures. Orange & Chocolate: Shaped like a cupcake, but more like a dense olive oil cake with a really bitter (in a good way) dark chocolate ganache on top. Loved all the orange aromas in the cake too. Yummy Cheesey: Looked like it's going to be dry, but is quite moist and "buttery". Very rich. This Is Nuts: Not a fan at all! Wasn't sweet. Tasted kinda funky. Supposed to be like a garlic cheese roll, but vegan. Reminds me of a vegan Slim Jim. Not for me.

Located in the Ferry Building, this walk up bakery has a great set up that keeps lines moving and allows you to see all of the incredible options.

I had a Gobbler for lunch, a sandwich complete with cranberry sauce, and ordered a variety of pastries for the evening and the plane ride home the next day! While it was all amazing, the summer hand pie was probably my favorite. I went back to grab some wrapped pastries right around the time they were closing and the staff were so kind! They told me they had already put some things away but would be happy to pull them out for me. I am dreaming of Mariposa from the east coast.

On a September stroll at the Ferry Building where you can take the ferry to Sausalito and Angel Island. I was surprised to see flakey croissants in SF and cinnamon rolls were Gluten free that didn't taste like pizza cardboard. The cinnamon roll was actually not too sweet but a bit flakey. You will also find gluten free pasta like the three cheese ravioli. You can also get cheese bagels and biscuit sandwiches which are gluten free. This is the spot where you can eat for free in SF, which means it's all gluten free.

I'd driven past the Dandelion factory and wanted to experience a true San Francisco treat! I ended up ordering a box of dark chocolate brittle ($60 for a large box), not cheap but definitely high quality and locally made. My colleagues in the office LOVED it; people came into my office just to talk about it and some of them brought it up to me days later. I'd never had brittle like it... it was a thin layer of crunchy, flaky toffee sandwiched between coatings of the richest, velvetiest dark chocolate. Even though I meant for this to be a gift, I snagged a few pieces for myself for the drive home. I didn't know how legendary their hot chocolate was until reading these reviews, so now I have another good reason to go back!
