It's very convenient downtown, and for being in the area, I appreciated that they had dedicated parking spots available. Inside is more of a quick grab and go setup with no dine in seating, which works fine if you're just stopping by for a quick treat. Unfortunately, the service could've been a little better. I wasn't greeted when I walked in, and it felt like I was bothering the worker when I asked about the Nurses Week special. The interaction just didn't feel very welcoming. I asked if I could choose any cookie for the deal, but they were out of the chocolate chunk, which was the one I originally wanted. I ended up getting the Cookies n Cream and White Chocolate Macadamia Nut instead. The cookies weren't warm when I received them, so I waited until I got home and heated them up in the microwave. Once warmed up, they tasted pretty decent.

The moment you walk in, your taste buds come alive from the mouthwatering aroma of fresh baked treats. You can truly tell each pastry is handcrafted with care. They are large and perfect for sharing. I tried the pretzel caramel breakfast roll, which was the perfect balance of salty and sweet, along with a twisted cinnamon roll that was rich and buttery.The Chicago-style croissant dog was another standout, it was a good twist on the traditional Chicago dog. If you're planning a visit, pack your patience,especially on a Saturday because th wait time can be a couple of hours but it's absolutely worth the wait. Thursdays and Fridays tend to be less hectic, though the selection may be a bit smaller. I'm so glad I stuck it out for the two-hour wait,it was completely worth it.

If you plan on having a wedding cake, you MUST have The Cakehole as your baker. Creamy, moist cake…read morewith icing that is blended so fine that I can guarantee your guests will rave. Every cake is handmade using only the best ingredients. You won't find any commercial ingredients in them! Every single of our 100 guests asked who did the cake. Compliments ranged from "it was the bomb," to "why didn't I eat another slice," to "I don't even like cake and I want more!" We cannot recommended Jovanna and her crew of bakers more highly. She was a dream to work with, professional, and able to manage our pandemic wedding date change without any issues. When our florist forgot about our flower order, she hit social media, asking her contacts if anyone could save the day. She is definitely my baker of choice for celebrations.

Along with cupcakes, you'll also find ice cream, pie and cake slices, cookies, bulk candy, and a whole two walls full of packaged candy, including old fashioned candy like Pez, Chuckles, wax lips and other novelty sweets.

Yes, these are quite a bit pricer that's for sure. People were buying one of everything in line. I was like wow! Some Items the combinations of flavors didn't appeal to me. I love tiramisu and pecan pie so I got them both. One suggestion I would have is to have utensils and napkins at the table for people to use. The pastries I bought are really temperature sensitive and need to be kept cold. Both had a cream - mousse inside. They wouldn't last long only a day or to the next. I loved the pecan item I ordered. It was great! The tiramisu one I wouldn't order again. The bottom flakey part was so bitter. I love coffee and expresso and tiramisu. But, the whole thing just wasn't what I thought it would taste like. Now I know. :-( Creamy, sweet, smooth, with a kick of coffee all come together to make a great tiramisu. This is what most people love about it. I don't know if they are planning on opening a store or not. The pop ups are doing well it seems. I will try other items whenever I can get to one of the pop ups.

What went from ordering 1 pastry each turned into 8 total.. and we regret nothing. The Tiramisu Danish was exactly as I had hoped for! The bitter taste of espresso paired with the sweet mascarpone cream filling reminded me of the holidays when I would watch my mom make tiramisu for our family. While a lot of people prefer a sweeter espresso, I thought this was perfect and very true to a traditional tiramisu taste The Pear Kouglof reminded me of a fresh yeast donut that's been tossed in sugar This was a very kid-friendly pastry in taste and while I wasn't too blown away by it, it did make me wonder if I would have preferred it with a stronger, more potent, fruit. The Cherry Basque Cheesecake -- this pastry was the house favorite. The texture of this cheesecake was creamy, but somehow still spongey.. cakey, but more like pudding. Mix that with the juiciest sour cherries and the crunch of a biscoff crust.. mind blown was an understatement. We're looking forward to what Beurre Sec has planned for their next pop-up

They offer a number of fresh baked fruit pies made with local ingredients. In addition, they have several savory options. I tried the apple cream cheese galette. The crust is buttery, flakey and melts in your mouth. The apples were fresh and deliciously tart. The cream cheese filling was subtle. I loved the galette. The pies disappear quickly, so you have to get there early for the best selection. Full size pies run $36-$40 dollars and are beautiful. The clerk is friendly and not pushy. They take cards or cash. I'll be a regular. The stand at the Farmers Market is super convenient for me.

If I were them I'd give it a permanent spot. Insanely delicious. They put a thin layer of white choclate to coat the interior crust.
