The cookies are fantasy, and the cream pie was soooo good. They don't have many old-school bakeries around like they used to. This one was opened in 1887, so you know it's good! They did mention they are moving to the larger space on the corner, so expect even more and better things from Lyndell's once that is complete!

Whenevever one of my friends asks for wedding vendor recommendations, I always tell them to go with…read moreThe Icing On The Cake for their wedding cake! Why? A few reasons: 1) Tasting! About 6 months before your wedding, book a cake tasting to come in and try a variety of flavors, look through their designs, and customize your perfect wedding cake. 2) Flavors! Everything is super tasty and moist - no bland, dry wedding cake here. For our wedding cake, we chose a different flavor for each tier: chocolate raspberry, coconut, chocolate hazelnut, and golden raspberry. 3) Designs! They have a great variety to choose from - from traditional to modern. For ours, we went with a silver brushstrokes design on the top part of each tier, and our florist (Central Square Florist) designed cascading fresh flowers on the cake at the venue. 4) Value! Pricing for this high quality is super reasonable, and they can deliver to your venue. On top of that, if you bring in a photo of your cake after the big day, they will give you a FREE anniversary cake, any flavor (we picked carrot cake), designed like your wedding cake! This is an incredibly sweet gesture that we greatly appreciated. No need to save that top tier in your freezer - get a fresh cake, and enjoy celebrating your first year of marraige together!

Sara made a special football-shaped cake for my son's birthday when I called her only a day and a…read morehalf prior to needing it. I had just flown in to Boston from Arizona. Although it was my son's birthday, I had had mainly flown in to watch him play football that Saturday. I realized I could not take a cake with me to the game because I was going directly to the post-game venue afterward (and had no vehicle). I needed to find someone who could whip up a delicious cake AND deliver it. Oh boy. It was already after 5pm that Thursday when I got to my hotel. What to do? I got on Yelp and went through reviews. All the local bakeries were listed, but The Spunky Baker stood out because of its name and because delivery was available. Maybe my day was saved?!! Sara made a 3-layered chocolate cake in the shape of a football with raspberry cream/raspberry compote filling between each layer and iced it with a delicious light cream frosting. Everyone loved it, the players, the parents... and Sara also made a couple dozen matching cupcakes. The leftovers were really appreciated by some lucky students later that night.

I first saw Yum Bunnies on UberEats and was intrigued. When I came to the store today, the first…read morething that stood out to me was how friendly the staff was. They were very patient, answered all our questions, and overall were delightful to talk to. The interior of the shop is also something that needs it's own appreciation post because the decorations make the shop look so much cooler too! As for the desserts -- in the dessert case, they had a series of "cakes in a jar," which is also what motivated me to come to the store. They had some seasonal flavors like Apple Cider, Pumpkin, Butterbeer, etc., and some standard flavors (Oreo, Earl Grey, Funfetti, etc.). Given that fall is in full swing, I opted to try the Butterbeer Cake in a Jar and honestly, I loved it! The frosting is a bit on the sweeter side (I am a huge fan of frosting, so no complaints from me). Both the cake and the frosting had a really nice butterbeer (butterscotch) flavor which wasn't overpowering, but it was very pleasant. Because the cake is kinda squished into the jar, it is a little "crumble-y" but the frosting really holds it together. I will definitely be coming back and I'm excited to try more flavors!

Fresh baked cookies!…read more These cookies are so good! It is always such a treat to catch this place open and go inside to see what delicious cookies they have in stock. They have two cases filled with yummy cookies and depending on how many you are going to purchase they give you the appropriate size cute box which is very carefully packaged. This time we tried their lemon cookies, chocolate chip and Florentine and all were very good! I believe if you buy a dozen there is a discount but every cookie is little more than $2 but they are a nice big size. They always taste like they just came out of the oven! Nice and fresh!

I defy anyone to find a better cookie purveyor than Cookie Time Bakery. I have been going for…read moreyears, back when they were called Lakota Cookies. The gateway drug cookie for me was the Mocha Shortbread cookies, which I first found at Pemberton Market in Cambridge, and then noticed for sale lots of places around town. But when I found the mother ship it was all over. It's a good thing I no longer live in Arlington, or I would be in serious trouble. The variety of cookies is remarkable--linzer, tuxedo, florentine, shortbread, ginger, chocolate chip of course, butter cookies dipped in dark or white chocolate, you really need to look at the website to get the full appreciation of the creativity that goes into these cookies. There are always seasonal cookies on offer -- last month Christmas, now heading into Valentine's Day and soon Easter. The cookies are always moist and fresh, and you'd better plan to get there early in the day if you want your pick. I learned this the hard way when I sashayed into the store an hour before closing, mouth watering for my absolute favorite (now), the Toffee Turtle cookie. Those babies were long gone, so I had to "settle" for the next tier of favorites. In fact a few of those were gone as well. That'll teach me. Order early if you want an assortment to take as a hostess gift... you'll be sure to be invited back often as these cookies are showstoppers!
