She also makes incredible custom character macarons that are really impressive. I'm already wanting to place another order.

Super creative! Very nice and always happy to please. Macaroons are tasty and fresh. Love her!!read more

We were lucky enough to have The Recipe Box cater our wedding. Great pricing, and delicious cakes!…read moreWe had multiple dozens of different flavors of mini-cheesecakes, and even had a custom 4" cheesecake made for my wife and I. They catered to our needs, and even let us come do a tasting of cheesecakes before we settled on them as a caterer. 10/10 would recommend! Love supporting a small business too, the husband & wife duo are so talented and great customer service!

A unique blend of traditional cheesecake with a thick graham cracker crust and mango topping with shredded coconut. Never would have thought of this combination - it was delicious! The density of the cheesecake was perfect and the mango sauce was tropical and tangy without being overpowering to the creamy cheesecake. Such a treat and would definitely recommend! Looking forward to trying more of The Recipe Box's cheesecakes and pies!

This is my second visit at Bouchée confections, and it was still as amazing as I remembered…read more This time, I took my mom for high tea and she loved it. She is gluten free and was impressed at how good all the gluten free items were, and how they were able to keep an extremely similar menu even. She only had one item that was completely different than what I received (a cheesecake instead of a fruit tart). You can really tell that they work hard to ensure the gluten free menu is as amazing as the non gluten free one. Everything was absolutely delicious, including the bottomless tea. I think the peach cardamom scone was my favorite today! I was happy that they could make my tea iced as it was a really hot summer day. The server was amazing, she was attentive and friendly. The place settings were super cute and I felt transported to England. I am definitely going to come back a third time with some friends! I love that the menu changes every month so you always have something new to try! Don't forget to make reservations!

The staff was friendly, professional, and helpful as this was our 1st tea time. The shop is bright and airy but it was a a bit smaller than I expected. The tea setting was beautifully done but our table was extremely small which made teatime challenging at times. During the teas each person gets their own pot of unlimited tea. We did the Jasmine Glow tea and the Strawberry Chocolate Pu'erh. The teas were amazingly delicious! They were so good that we bought some to bring home. The bites were flavorful, just the right size, and complemented each other beautifully. You could taste the love and care that went into each one of the items. They also offer 2 speciality adult beverages each month. The Prosecco float was my favorite! This was a wonderful and delicious experience. We can't wait for next month's tea!

Amber and Daniel always make me feel right at home! Very friendly and always going above and beyond to give us a great experience! The chocolates are always incredible! A few favs I have are the key lime pie, toasty blonde, lemon truffle, and the ebony and ivory! You really can't go wrong with any of them though!

Their team recently welcomed our staff for a tour of their headquarters, and it was such a treat to see how much care goes into what they make. Every piece is handcrafted by their small local team, and you can feel the pride they take in their work. We also got to taste their seasonal Key Lime Pie Bonbon, which was incredible. On top of the tour, Dorinda's donated several huge bags of pretzels for our clients and staff to enjoy. Dorinda's has also participated in our But First, Dessert Gala every year from 2022 through 2025 and is a three-time winner of our Best Dessert Award, which says a lot because the competition is always strong. We are grateful to have Dorinda's as a neighbor, a partner, and a local business that genuinely shows up for the community. Highly recommend supporting this amazing local business and community supporter!

Oh man, I can't say enough good things about this business…read more The cookies are delicious and Shandra makes them so custom for every type of event - even puts your logo on them. I decorated a donated tree with a Western theme for Safe Embrace's holiday Gala and the cookies she made for me to hang on the tree (wrapped in cellophane) were the icing on the cake. It went for the highest bid at the event because those cookies were so unique. Her cakes are beautiful, moist, and delicious too. Please be sure to look her up on Facebook and check out her website. Her florals are fresh and lovely to give- so beautifully arranged. I highly recommend this business. Maureen Rector

When my sister got married, they called and ordered their celebration sweets here. Since she was working swing shifts, it was hard for her to pick up the cake and cupcakes during business hours, so the owner obliged for an after hours stop. I remember the cupcakes were quite good and the cake was yummy as well. Everything they do here has that personalized touch. A much better option than the grocery store. Of course you'll pay a little more. But sometimes it's just worth it. For what it's worth, my sister insists they identify as LGBTQ+ friendly, black/female owned. 11/24

A friend who was helping me look for a custom cake baker that wasn't over-the-top cost wise located them in their NW Reno location.

Jess is delightful and very helpful with decor ideas - we ended up with off-white frosting with a gold leaf ring around each layer. We did have to pick up the cake at the Sparks location because it was Sunday, and our messages weren't always answered as timely as we would have preferred, but it all worked out and the cake was AMAZING!
