    Had to come back for more bread and cream horns ! This time they put my items in a bag instead of a box . Cream horns deserve a box. Very fragile .

    Red velvet with cream cheese frosting

    I ordered a 2-tier red velvet wedding cake for our son and this cake was perfect! It was moist & fluffy and not too sweet. Just how I like it, a cake that is not only beautiful but tastes great too! The bride loved it and took home the leftovers! Best red velvet cake ever!

    Definitely NOT red frosting.

    Went to Grants with high expectations, but were left very disappointed! My wife and I ordered a simple smash cake and cupcakes for my sons first birthday. The smash cake is extremely lopsided and looks like it was done at home. The cupcakes, which are supposed to be fronted in red came out pink with yellow sprinkles. When we asked the associate about it, we were told that's "just how it is." If this is Grant's "red" icing, their Patriots and Red Sox cakes must look absolutely ridiculous. You can even see it is pink based on the icing residue on the inside box. I can see why the associate was annoyed with us wanting to look at the product before leaving the store with it. Grant's did a good job with my daughters first birthday, I don't know if I'll return after this experience though. There are other bakers around.

    This bakery has been around for a very long time and is still one of THE best places. I grew up going to this place when it was on College Street and still stop in each time I visit. However, now I come with a big order since I have all my friends hooked on this place. Yes there are bakeries all over but the stuff from the bakery at grocery stores are different. They have cakes, pies, and lots of goodies like Whoopie pies, cream horns, cookies, éclairs and more. Everything is baked fresh and I've called to place an order and they've made it up fresh for me. The fruit turnovers are great. Small crescent shapes filled with your choice of Blueberry, Raspberry, Apple which they mark with a letter on the top so you know when you pick up the B you are biting into Blueberry. I use to come back with a few things and my friends would try some things. Before I knew it I was bringing back an order for each of them. With bags of goodies over $100 people thought I was wacky. Little did they know it wasn't all for me. Saturday's is bean day so you can get salt pork and your choice of beans with brown bread. You can also place an order and have them ship certain things so this could be a nice surprise goodie package for those you love. Don't forget the Molasses cookies. They are soooo yummy!

    Salmon pie for Good Friday!
    Todd R.

    I have not been here since I was a student at nearby Bates College a long time ago. My daughter and I were in town on Good Friday for a track meet and I got an urge for a salmon pie to commemorate the day. My daughter, who is no fan of fish, was easily bribed to accompany me with the promises of baked sweets. Upon entering the store we were greeted by some of the nicest and most helpful staff I have encountered in awhile. I purchased the salmon pie and my daughter indulged her sweet tooth with some peanut butter cookies. My daughter liked her cookies quite a bit and I really enjoyed my salmon pie. I do have to say that I wish I did not read the ingredients because I could do without the hydrogenated oils, artificial flavors and colors added but it was very tasty nonetheless. The store had many beautiful baked goods and I really admire their longevity as a neighborhood bakery. I will definitely be back.

    Too sweet. Everything has _so_ much sugar. This may be a traditional bakery, but it isn't a high quality one.

    I live in Saco, Maine and came into Lewiston to meet up with a good friend of mine. He told me…read moreabout this awesome bakery and how everything is so good there. He knew I loved chocolate eclairs, and told me this is the spot to go! His words and enthusiasm about this bakery did not disappoint! I bought one eclair and took a bite of it in the car and had to run back in to buy one more for the road for when I got home later. It was perfect. I will have to go back and try some other desserts or have him bring them to me next time he's down my neck of the woods. They have a great wide range of desserts to choose from and I guarantee you will be satisfied.

They have a handful of flavors from classic (chocolate cake and vanilla frosting, maple, chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting, and vanilla with vanilla frosting). While they sell at other stores in the area I highly recommend dropping in to meet and interact with the folks that make the magic happy. Don't worry if you don't live nearby - you can order online for delivery all over the country. Also they freeze well and let me tell you they are terrific heated up in the microwave. If you do go in person definitely take advantage of their specials. Just call ahead to see what their deals are. We scored a fab steal with a buy one get one special. And don't forget to tip the staff, they work super hard to make a classically delicious Northeastern delight.

SPüN does a lot of variety of custom order cakes and they're so nicely done. My first opportunity was my SO had actually ordered a green tea cake -- it was so good I couldn't stop shoveling the buttercream into my mouth. This year I opted for a Boston cream pic cupcake selection for the Boston cream pie lover in my life. The inside was a yellow cake base with the standard Boston cream in the middle and a hardened chocolate shell over cream on top. I made a special request for some lettering and they came packaged in a box that allowed for complete stability of the cakes. I accidentally left them out in a cold area prior to serving but they turned out totally fine! I would have normally done a regular Boston cream pie but circumstances made cupcakes an easier option. Will be trying the full cake next time. Definitely recommend if you're in the area -- ordering, customizing, payment, and pick up were all insanely easy.

THESE ARE THE BEST CINNAMON ROLLS I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE (So please ignore anything I've said stating otherwise that was written before this review was.) I had been warned that these were everything and more, and that still did not prepare me for how epic they were. They're the perfect balance of both dense and yet they melt-in-your-mouth; the "icing" (whatever notion you have of icing, throw it away because that's not what this is but a word hasn't been invented yet for whatever is going on with these buns) is sticky and creamy and has a little hint of citrus. And I am not sure I can never eat another cinnamon roll again, because these have spoiled me forever (I was swooning so much the first time we had them that my partner let me finish his as well!). Also: their frittata? I haven't had anything that good since living in Spain. Big, filling wedges of layered egg, potato, onion, and veggies. I'm hoping this will always be available vegetarian! Also; I ate it cold. And with my hands like it was a slice of pizza. That's the kind of monster I am, but it worked out deliciously! Spün you have IMMEDIATELY become one of my favorite food places in all of Maine. Can I make my holiday order for a half dozen cinnamon rolls and veggie frittata now?!
