Food: Tried the chocolate chip cookie, sugar cookie, and sweet potato cake. Cookies were FRESH. Soft, flavorful, exactly what you want. The sweet potato cake was moist and had great flavor overall, but part of it was burnt. I even asked for a specific piece to avoid that. Ended up eating most of it, but the burnt section was too much. Honestly, that whole cake probably should've been scrapped. Service/Timing: Friendly and helpful. No complaints there. Value: Good. $10(8 cookies and what I'd consider 1/4 slice of cake.Quality was mostly there, but the burnt cake keeps it from being top tier. Highlight Fresh Wrap-Up: Strong start overall. The cookies alone make it worth stopping by. Just tighten up quality control on the cakes and it's easily a 5-star experience.

I did not know they had location inside the Iverson Mall as I will be reviewing the store front…read morethat is located on St. Barnabas Road. I've been waiting on them to open for a few months now and just so happen to be driving by and they were open so I stopped. Now I wish I would have taken some pictures of the stores and what I got. But I will definitely take pictures as this will not be the only time I give them a try. I went kind of late so most of the items were not available. So I decided to try a cookie and cream cheese cake and a slice of sweet potato cake. I couldn't even wait to get him to try the cheesecake. It was so creamy and delicious! Lord I wish I would have bought (2) pieces! Sweet potato cake was moist and sweet just like a sweet potato pie would be. I can't wait to go back and try the banana pudding, strawberry cake, cupcakes, and more cheese cakes. Inside is really cute a lot of baby blue is the ambiance inside so very bright and inviting. Go check them out y'all!

Free street parking located directly in front of the store, or you can park in the shopping center parking lot located just around the corner (2 min walk). I purchased the strawberries and cream, confetti, oreo, and red velvet. Strawberries and cream is 5/5!!! Looking forward to sampling Oreo flavor. Next time I will try the banana pudding, one of their seasonal flavors. This location is in a great spot because it's located right off of 301 in Waugh Chapel (Crofton), so if you travel a lot in this direction it works out perfectly! Give these little cakes a try. You won't regret it!

The cupcakes which were supposed to be Ravens purple were lavender with paper cutouts slapped on top of sloppy fondant. The cake was supposed to be blue velvet and white chocolate. There is not a trace of blue velvet or white chocolate anywhere! The cupcakes were dry and had very little taste and the "cake" was an oily mess. I'm not sure what flavor it was supposed to be. The cake was HORRIBLE. It looks like something a beginning student did for practice. I asked for a theme that would incorporate sneakers (Jordans, Labrons or KD's), video games (PS and/or Xbox) and The Ravens. I got a white square with black stains on top with a lumpy and poorly made video game controller plopped on top and a lumpy and poorly made football plopped beside it. I was too embarrassed to take the cake to the birthday dinner. It looked horrible. I am still very disappointed and pissed off that I wasted my money. Alexandra Sweets & Co. dropped the ball and clearly did not care about my order or me as a customer.

When we were able to finally connect on April 19th to schedule a consultation and tasting she said she would be out of town the next week, but she would pencil us in for May 4th, and call us on Monday, April 29th to firm up the time. Long story short, she did not call, so I called several times over the week, left at least two messages, and here we are on May 4th, our consult day, and she has not returned any of our communications. It's like she skipped town and never came back. Extremely unprofessional! Now we are scrambling to find someone else!
