A sweets place for social media…read more Came to this side of west Hartford because a new dumpling spot opened up and this place was right next to it. Because we were already on an adventure, might as well try one more place as well. Inside has all the decor of an influencer styled place. Fake grass on the wall, lots of bright popping colors and plenty of places to snag the selfie. The menu is laden with sweets of every shape and size. Everything with loud pictures and kinda pricy price tags for just sweets. Their milkshakes were mostly 20 dollars and were towers of candy, donuts, and decadence. We did a small smattering of their truffles and a couple of their other sweets. A Dubai chocolate square and a chocolate ganache layered brownie. The place is very concerned about outward appearances, but what about the flavor? That I can report is actually pretty good. The truffle is a brigadeiro truffle. It's a soft and kinda chewy truffle, like a nougat and mochi hybrid. They were very pretty and flavorful, but not what one would call a truffle in the traditional sense. The Dubai chocolate square was dusted in gold dust and has the expected pistachio crème and phyllo inside. The chocolate was creamy and wonderful in flavor and consistency. The issue was the size, the chocolate shell kinda shattered on the bite and led to a bit of a mess in the car. The brownie was good. The chocolate ganache was delicious and the brownie was a little overdone. But the ganache really helped salvage the dish. It's pricy, is very much a place you go to for pictures of you and your entourage living their best life. But the quality is there and below the glitz and glamour there's a solid sweets shop here. For some, the facade may be a detractor, but they got good sweets so they are worth a try.

They took the time to explain all about Brazilian pastries and desserts, and their allergen protocols as well.

Definitely a nice place to stop in for dessert and friendly service!

I've heard so much about Tony's Flour Shop, I am so happy I recently got to check them out my self…read more I am almost never in Cromwell, but on this occasion I was meeting a friend and Tony's was the perfect midpoint for us. This place is so adorable on the inside, it is small and pretty intimate, but the decor is precious! There are so many toadstools (the oversized red mushrooms with polka dots) and rainbows everywhere. Tony's specialty's are all his mom's recipes. There was a delightful selection of an assortment of sweets. Of course you can get your coffees and teas too. Each month they change their drink specials. I got a slice of their Salted Caramel Pecan Blondie and a May Specialty Latte called Fay Valentine. The Blondie was rich with caramel on the outside but decadently sweet, yet crunchy. This is an indulgence for sure! The Fay Valentine is a Banana and Peanut Butter Latte, absolutely delicious! I kept slurping long after it was gone! Please go check out the restroom at Tony's, even if nature isn't calling you to go. I have never before encountered a more magical restroom. If I tell you there's Alice herself hanging upside down from the ceiling, maybe that's enough reason to go. I had a wonderful time with my friend at Tony's Flour Shop, the staff is super helpful and friendly. I cannot wait to return.

Whooooah! I have never wanted to brag about a breakfast sandwich in my life, but Tony's Flour Shop…read morewould be the one! I ordered three things - decaf coffee, the egg, bacon and cheese breakfast sandwich on homemade Italian bread, and a salted croissant. The breakfast sandwich was beautiful - buttered and gently toasted on the outside, soft and squishy on the inside, the bacon was perfectly crisp, and the egg wasn't runny, as I had requested. I have NEVER IN MY LIFE had bread like this; it elevated the entire thing That Salted Croissant tho! I was carb-loading double-fisted style, and it was an amazing way to end my work trip. Thank you for the Studio Ghibli stickers! I knew this place was legit when there was a bowl with giveaway stickers And the service was friendly, prompt, and helpful I will definitely be back and would STRONGLY recommend Tony's Flour Shop!

Mozzicato's is a true Hartford staple. Mozzicato - De Pasquale's Bakery & Pastry Shop on Franklin…read moreAvenue sets a standard that most spots just can't touch. While the pastries are classic and exactly what you'd expect from a high-caliber Italian bakery, the real gem is the Italian ice located in the cafe. Good lord, the flavors and quality are on a different level--this isn't that Rita's or DQ garbage. The chocolate and strawberry combination is specifically incredible, honestly better than Godiva chocolate-covered strawberries. It provides that deep, rich profile and authentic taste that defines their Itallian vibe. One professional tip for anyone stopping by: bring cash. The cafe doesn't accept cards, and you don't want to be the one standing there empty-handed when you're that close to the best Italian ice on the planet

Easy to say, until next time

DO NOT GO HERE. Scam alert!…read more I ordered a drink here and the quality was atrocious. To make matters worse, they are extremely shady with their pricing. They stealthily added a tip to my bill without asking for my consent. They also charged me extra for boba, but guess what? There was absolutely NO boba in my drink. The only topping I got was sago, which was as hard as rocks and completely raw.The grand total came out to $10. I was completely shocked when I heard the price. I have no clue how they did the math, but this is a total scam. It is mind-blowing that a random boba shop costs even more than HEYTEA in NYC. Zero stars if I could.

I stopped in while I was in the area for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I've been seeing…read moresocial media posts about this place and was excited to see what they offered. The space seems very calm and I noticed two people with laptops working at tables. There are also arm chairs. There are two cases with pastries and other treats that are more savory. It is very bright, airy, and well lit in there. I ordered a summer special called "sand in the cheeks" latte. It was good, but sweeter than I anticipated. I also ordered a honeycomb and a pistachio cake. I got all of these to go. I immediately shared the honeycomb with someone and I really enjoyed it. I had never heard of this. The girl instructed me to heat it in the microwave and then pour the honey on it. She initially offered to heat it up for me, but I declined because I wasn't sure when I'd be home to eat it. it was filled with cream cheese - that was unexpected, but it worked. I really enjoyed this. I saved the pistachio cake for after dinner, since my father was coming over and he loves anything pistachio. The serving was perfect for two people. It reminded me of a Tres Leche cake. My father absolutely loved it, so much so, that since then we have treated ourselves to two other pistachio cakes from other places, and he keeps saying this one is the best. I would definitely return and try some other items, and maybe they will have a fall coffee menu like they did for summer. The service was friendly.

This is an updated review…read more I wanted to love this place, but.... Third time here. Let me start by saying that the coffee is nothing short of scrumptious. Truly. It is that good. And the service is excellent. Nice vibe. Nice music. Nice staff. Lovely gem. I had a latte Biscoff. Soooo very good. This was the first time that I ordered decaf coffee instead of regular. Afterwards, I was taken aback when we happened to read on our receipt we had been charged more for my decaf coffee. Oh, no?!! Oh, yes. It was a separate, distinct line item charge. I genuinely don't understand this. Am I missing something? Coffee is this business's business. I have never heard of nor have I ever experienced being charged more for ordering decaffeinated coffee. It was ludicrous. It is just not right. Period. We both ordered small coffees. Nothing else and it was over $15 in total. This coffee is quite expensive as it is but to be charged extra for ordering decaf is ridiculous. It is a small charge, but it's the principle. This practice is sales prevention. And it worked: as much as we both love the coffee--we won't be going back.
