After just taking the leap from Texas to CT I've been missing my local panadería so in fast action…read moreI search the web for something near by. To my surprise and joy I stumbled across Carmens! While I see there are some improvement that could be made to how she stores the backed good based on others review I was able to caught her when the items were fresh and hot! The guava and cheese turnover was AMAZING! I'm still dreaming of the flavors mixing in my mouth! She does keep most things in a frigde or cooler so I popped my turnover in the airfrier and it was just right! My advice if you get cake is to let it come to room temp if you don't like the cakes frosting harder! Carmen is a gem and I also found out she is from monterrey and would spend a lot of time in McAllen where I frequent in Texas! You can tell she has all of love for the space and the goods she makes! She has top notch service! When I asked if she sold conchas she ran to the back to find me some!

Besides the great customer service and those biscottis, we saw tiramisu, croissants, Italian cookies, cannolis, bars, eclairs, stuffed breads, and all sorts of great looking Italian pastries I didn't know by name. We walked out with chocolate, chocolate covered, almond, and lemon cannolis, plus a small pizza we'll have for lunch tomorrow. Our first visit here was so positive, I'm sure we'll return when up this way again.

"Sugar Magnolia blossoms blooming Head's all empty and I…read moredon't care Saw my baby down by the river Knew she'd have to come up soon for air" (Grateful Dead) We bumped into the Sugar Magnolia Bakery's booth at the Winter Market in Enfield. It's a craft kitchen small business that sells muffins, cupcakes, cookies, cakes, and other assorted bakery treats. Some of their more interesting offerings are Vanilla Bean Chai Cupcakes, Cadbury Egg Chocolate Cupcakes, PB Marshmallow Banana Cupcakes, and Italian Rainbow Cookie Cake. We picked up a Morning Glory Mini Loaf chock full of cinnamon, bananas, cranberries, oats, coconut, and pecans. It was dense, moist and delicious. Sugar Magnolia's website or Instagram page are probably the best ways to check out their goods and get a preview of their upcoming appearance schedule. That is unless you're fortunate enough to find them in person at random like we did!

Cupcakes: Over priced, under-sized, bland. I was taken aback…read moreby the price of the cupcakes looking at the size. But then I figured, they are home made. The taste will make up for it. Frosting was pasty. Cake itself had no real flavor. Sorry, just very disappointing.

La Fiorentina markets itself as the best Italian bakery at both locations but they forget Costco is…read moreonly 15 minutes away with better cakes. Actually, there's probably a middle bake off somewhere... try that first. The Muffin Man who bosses everyone around in the back--affectionately referred to by locals as The Rat--will make your food with unclean hands. He sleeps around in Springfield so his longtime girlfriend in Florida won't find out about it, which is bold behavior for someone who has clearly never met a mirror or any man taller than his 5'6 stature. He flirts by purchasing expensive gifts for any dummy who will accept them, has zero respect for marital status, and treats wedding rings like optional accessories. If confidence were cleanliness, this place might actually sparkle. Now let's talk cannolis. Calling them "disappointing" feels generous. They're small. They're limp. They lack structure, filling, and any sense of purpose--much like the owner's tiny cannoli in his pants. One bite and you're left wondering where the rest of it went and why you bothered. In summary: dirty shop, inflated ego, morally questionable vibes, and pastries that can't rise to the occasion, if ya know what mean. If you're craving drama, questionable hygiene, and an extremely underwhelming cannoli, La Fiorentina is your place. If you want food that respects you--and your marriage--maybe try... literally anywhere else.
