Happened upon this when in the area with a friend and we had to stop in and check it out! It's so…read morecute!! Everything is made in house with the exception of the macarons. It was hard to choose, but I did a half pound of the small cookies as I really wanted to try the anise ones. I made these growing up and it was definitely a walk down memory lane for me. Had to get the pistachio croissant and also a piece of the pistachio cake. My friend got the biscoff cake and I got a piece e of the carrot cake to take home to my husband. They give you a warning about the cake lids- heed their warning as they do not stay on and you should not pick up by the lid! I tasted the biscoff and it was exactly that and so good! The pistachio cake was three smaller layers of cake with what seemed like a lighter buttercream frosting, but not too much and not too sweet either. The cake was light and flavorful. The croissant was large and more than enough to share!

This place is so pretty! Love the decor. The display case showed off all the pastries beautifully …read more I was very excited to try the Mango Mousse because I love mango. The dessert itself was colorful on the outside and had a delicious, creamy mango filling on the inside. It was a 10/10 dessert. I had also ordered a pistachio iced Latte. The latte basically tasted like milk. It had little flavor. Definitely not my favorite Latte. If you would like to try a place that is like Cake Bake but with a slightly cheaper price tag, I would highly recommend checking out the Cake Pantry.

They also have coffee, but are mostly known for their baking skills. I do believe they are family owned and operated. The employees are all very friendly and welcoming. I have not tried a cake from them but their decorated cookies are yummy. Also, the biscuits and gravy are delicious and hot and fresh. Portion sizes are generous as well. The shop is clean and cute and bonus points for all of the flamingo decor outside! If you haven't tried them yet, stop in and check them out!

I love Italian food and Stacco House has been on my list of new (to me) places to visit for quite…read moresome time. Yesterday, I decided that I would not be cooking dinner and instead opted to order pizza and dessert to be picked up on my way home. This is such a cute, quaint little shop located in a tiny strip mall next to a gas station. So very unassuming, yet quite impressive. I loved the two cute yellow tables and chairs out on the sidewalk as well as the Sinatra that was playing when I entered the shop. I was greeted warmly and let me say how much I value a pleasant and genuine interaction like that. Someone came to the front of the store from the kitchen in the back, and she too greeted me with a very welcoming and warm smile. This fact alone makes me want to return and support this place of business. My pizzas were prepared fresh and handed to me hot out of the oven. The deserts, an assortment of 3 different kinds of cookies as well as two slices of cake, were kept separate and cold. My husband loved the pizza (he is somewhat of a connoisseur) and I enjoyed it as well. The carrot cake was a bit dense for my liking and the pistachio ricotta was decadent. My husband really enjoyed these sweet treats as a night cap! I loved the cookies. I ordered the Peanut Butter Brownie Swirl cookie, the Pistachio Chocolate Crunch cookie, and two of the Pistachio Thumbprint cookies. My personal favorite was the Pistachio Chocolate Crunch cookie. It had a great contrast in texture with the soft-baked cookie being perfectly complemented by the crunch of the pistachio pieces, and it wasn't overly sweet. I'll definitely be back to try more cookies, cakes and pastries in the future! They also carry some authentic imported Italian products, such as pomodoro sauce.

Highlights were the black & white cookie, Italian cookie, and lemon curd cookie. The chocolate truffle and dipped chocolate cookie were loved by my husband and my friend loved the pistachio cannoli! I will 100% be back and they had a cookie platter that I plan to order for my next gathering!

This is my third experience here. Every time it's been better and better…read more First two times I came in for just one or two pieces of pastry. This third time I was picking up 18 pastries - 3 different types- all delicious and superbly baked AND a cake. WOW! The cake was amazingly beautiful! delicious and decorated exquisitely with huge intricate frosting flowers and leaves. I'm very very happy with my order- they even helped me carry it to the car. This bakery made my special family party a huge success, everyone enjoyed the food and remarked on how delicious it looked and tasted. Thank you SO much for making the event extra special

I don't even know where to begin... I came in for a pastry and left emotionally attached…read more Let's talk about the croissants. I had not one, but TWO -- and I regret absolutely nothing. The raspberry pistachio croissant? Oh. My. God. This thing had me in a chokehold. Flaky, buttery layers with the perfect balance of tart raspberry and rich pistachio. It wasn't just good -- it was write-home-about-it good. The kind of pastry that makes you pause mid-bite and question every other croissant you've ever had. The second was a croissant sandwich (I wish I could remember the name!), but the way those flavors paired together? Let's just say it was a full culinary experience. Savory, balanced, indulgent -- you get the hint. Every bite just made sense. Now here's the part that really says something: I grew up on the East Coast where authentic French bakeries are everywhere and the cultural standard is high. I know a proper croissant. And this? This was better. Yes, I said it. We even had the chance to speak with the owner, who was incredibly warm and genuine. He checked in to make sure we enjoyed everything -- which we clearly did, considering we left with boxes to take home. This place isn't just a pastry shop. It's an experience. And trust me, it will be a topic of discussion in our house for days. Run. Don't walk.

Mama Ines on Georgetown Road is our absolute go-to bakery and a true neighborhood gem. Every visit…read morefeels like a small adventure, thanks to the massive selection of freshly made baked goods lining the shelves. There's always an impressive variety of breads, cakes, cookies, empanadas, and more--enough to make it impossible to leave with just one item. The coolers are equally tempting, stocked with classics like rice pudding, tres leches cake, and flan. And then there are the hot tamales--fresh, comforting, and hands down my favorite item in the entire place. They're worth the trip alone. The setup is simple and old-school: grab a tray, pick up a pair of tongs, and help yourself as you make your way around the shop. It's casual, efficient, and part of what makes the experience feel so authentic. One thing to know before you go--English isn't always spoken, so bringing your abuela along or having a translator phone app handy is helpful. That said, the quality and authenticity of the food make any language barrier completely worth navigating. Lately, their corn muffins have become my new obsession--moist, flavorful, and impossible to resist. Mama Ines delivers the kind of baked goods that feel homemade, generous, and deeply rooted in tradition. If you're looking for authentic bakery treats and aren't afraid to step a little outside your comfort zone, this place is an absolute must.

We chatted for a while and she said the business was about 6 months old and they were looking to get more customers in. This spot is definitely a HIDDEN GEM! Here's what we got: -hot chocolate with almond milk -chocolate covered strawberries -turkey sandwich -Dubai chocolate donut -Oreo donut I would've walked out with tons more because everything looked so good! I know the next time I visit I'll be getting the tres leches cake, cinnamon rolls and almond butter croissants! Every item we ordered was fantastic! The Dubai chocolate donut was the best version of the play on the candy bar that I've ever had. The donut was so soft and pillowy and the toppings were the perfect crunchy sweet balance I was looking for. When you're in the Castleton area, definitely give this spot a try!
