They feature authentic Hispanic baked goods at prices you won't find in many places. The special occasion cakes are a delight for the eyes! There are cases that line the perimeter of the store filled with pastries that are so visually appealing, it's almost a shame to eat them! Piñatas line the ceiling and makes for such a festive atmosphere. You'll find sweet breads, donuts, and pastries galore! When you enter, take a tray and set of tongs by the door. Then browse your way around the bakery and add your selections to the tray. When you're ready, the staff will ring and bag your order. Keep in mind that most of the placards on the bakery cases are in Spanish. So you might type Spanish to English in your cell phone browser to learn what the pastries you are interest in are in your own language. It helped me tremendously! I think my dining companion and I purchased 7 pastries and some other sweets, and the total was less than $15. I highly recommend this bakery for the most appealing visual and tasty treats you will find!

However, I will say that if you're not looking for it, you won't find it, so stay on the look out! This small Mexican bakery is most definitely popular among the locals and I just happened to pop by when I was driving in the area out of curiosity. I am so glad that I did. As soon as you walk in, you'll see a tray and tongs table to your left. It's self serve so you grab one and put whatever you would like to purchase on your tray. When I tell you there are hundreds of baked goods for you to try from, I'm really not joking. There's a variety of sweets lining up the store walls for you to choose from. There are even some hot pastries and cakes you can purchase from the counter. I was definitely overwhelmed by the choice and things aren't labeled, so I let my eyes do the picking. I randomly grabbed three of the prettiest deserts I could find. One was a cream and jam filled pastry, one was a cake, and one was a cookie. Each of them had such a unique and authentic flavor. After taking a bit of each one, I understood why this place was packed even late on a Sunday night. The best part is, when I paid for these three sweets, my total was less than $5. Amazing food for this deal?! Sign me up! I will be back very soon and buying more baked goods than I could ever imagine!

I was excited to share this little spot with decent, cheap pastries. We got 4 or 5 very different items and everything was sooo gross!! Dry, stale, and everything tasted the exact same in a weird way. If I had to guess, everything I bought was likely 4 or 5 days old. It all tasted like how the bakery smelled (which is NOT a good thing). Almost like savory when it shouldn't be.. Like when you eat old freezer food and it tastes like freezer is possibly the best way I can describe it... When I used to come before, sometimes I'd end up with one bad item that was slightly stale, but this time was EVERY item. I'm not even a picky eater, but I could barely stomach one bite of each thing. I threw it all out. It was a waste of like $13 and I don't plan on coming again.

My son turns two this weekend, and this birthday means more to our family than most people will ever know. He was very sick around his first birthday, so we never got to have the celebration we had hoped for. This is our first real birthday party for him, and like many busy parents, I was trying to pull everything together at the last minute. I learned that Lili Bella's typically takes orders well in advance, but after speaking with the sweetest woman on the phone, she suggested I reach out to the owners directly because they might be able to help. They didn't have to. But they did. This local, family-owned, veteran-owned business fit me into their schedule for two dozen cupcakes with only a few days' notice. They helped me come up with ideas when I wasn't even sure what I wanted and made the entire process easy. When I arrived, I was completely charmed. The bakery is tucked inside a beautiful historic stone cottage that feels warm, welcoming, and full of personality. The owners are some of the most genuine, down-to-earth people I've met in a long time. Not "good customer service" nice--actually kind people who genuinely care about their customers and community. As I was leaving, they handed me their last fresh cinnamon roll of the day and told me I had to try it. No charge. Just kindness. Who does that anymore? While I was there, I learned they do cakes, cookies, cupcakes, coffee, tea events, and even have a Bridgerton-inspired experience coming up that I'm already planning to attend with my mother-in-law. The cupcakes are for tomorrow's pool party, so I'll happily update this review after everyone has tried them. But honestly, the experience alone earned five stars before I ever opened the box. In a world that often feels rushed and transactional, Lili Bella's feels like the opposite. It feels like community. It feels like kindness. It feels like the type of business you root for because you genuinely want good things to happen to good people. Thank you for helping make my son's birthday special. You've earned customers for life. And if you've been losing a little faith in humanity lately, go buy a cinnamon roll from Lili Bella's and spend five minutes talking to the people who run it. You'll leave with more than dessert.

I was in this area for work and was looking for some gluten free vegan sweets. It appeared that Healthy Body Bakery could satisfy that craving, as they cater to those with dietary restrictions. It's a small business, tucked behind the main street-facing businesses of a building. I was warmly greeted upon entry. They only had one gf vegan cake option on the day that I went (vanilla cake with vanilla icing), but they had several gf cupcakes and muffins available. I grabbed a cake slice (for half off!) and a cupcake. VANILLA CAKE SLICE Vegan and gluten free vanilla cake and vanilla icing. The cake was moist and the taste was ok to a seasoned vegan. What I mean by that is, for decades I've watched (and tasted) as the vegan food game evolved. Back in the 90s, vegan vanilla cake had this same beige/light brown color and flavor. So I actually knew what it would taste like before I even bought it, based on the color. However, it did not taste gluten free and that is a flex. The icing was slightly lighter than a buttercream icing, but definitely not a whipped cream icing. For people who don't like "too sweet", this icing would be perfect for you. It was sweet without the sugar rush. I would love to see them improve on their vegan vanilla cake though. If they can get it to that light and fluffy yellow vanilla color, they'd join the dozens of awesome vegan bakers across the country who've mastered this feat. MANDARIN ORANGE CUPCAKE A tasty orange flavored cupcake with the same aforementioned vanilla icing. It was moist; it did not have that typical grainy gf texture or dry gf taste. It was a very good cupcake. I believe they also have a peach gf vegan cake in their rotation. If I was in the area again, I'd definitely return to try that peach flavor.
