Potomac Bakery is a pleasant stop along a really nice road for walking. The shop smells wonderful…read moreinside, the staff are always friendly, and they often have discounted items available. Quality depends somewhat on what you order, but there is some really good stuff here. Of everything I have tried here, the large cinnamon rolls are my favorite. They have the perfect amount of moistness and softness, use a good amount of cinnamon within the roll, and feature an amazing cream cheese frosting that is not overly sweet and does not overpower the comforting cinnamon flavor. The muffins are also high quality and stay moist throughout the week if you get a dozen. I especially like the almond and cherry flavored muffins. My dad says he cannot tell the difference between the muffins at Potomac bakery and the muffins at Giant Eagle, and that may well be true as Giant Eagle has some good stuff though I have never tried both to compare. They are even better freshly toasted with a little Irish butter on top. If you are going to get a doughnut here, the cream filled ones are probably your best bet because they use high quality cream. I would personally skip the scones because the scones can be a bit dry and bland and are probably my least favorite thing I have tried here. In conclusion I recommend the large cinnamon rolls, the muffins, and if you go for a donut you must get a cream filled one.

We sampled several and Bella Christie and Lil' Z's white almond cake with raspberry buttercream filling & vanilla buttercream icing was OUT OF THIS WORLD & 100% VEGAN! Even the non-vegans loved it! We are definitely using them to keep our handful of vegan guests happy when it comes time to serve the cake! My only issue is with their slow response time to emails or phone calls. We almost selected a different bakery because we thought they just didn't have time for us.

I stopped into Signature Desserts to order a birthday cake for my daughter. This is the second year…read moreI've ordered from Signature Desserts, and we were not disappointed. The cake was marble cake with Almond Bavarian Custard, and buttercream frosting. The three layers of marble cake were wonderfully moist. The Almond Bavarian Custard had a nice, subtle almond flavor, and the cake tasted better the next day. The buttercream frosting was smooth, and not overly sweet. The decorating was beautifully done. My husband ordered Lady Locks and brownies from the counter when we stopped in to pick up the cake. He loved the Lady Locks, and brownies which he warmed up to eat with ice cream. The shop is clean and neat, not overwhelming. Definitely worth a stop if you're wanting a wonderful product.

The Cakery is a local business that makes custom and non-custom cakes, cupcakes, pies, cookies, and…read moreother desserts. They even offer some desserts for diabetic and ketogenic diets. I did not need a large, custom order, so I stopped by the business to browse their offerings. I saw two display cases of cakes, bars, brownies, fudges, scones, and cookies, and I saw one refrigerator of cinnamon rolls, banana breads, muffins, etcetera. An employee immediately greeted me, and as I selected my desserts, she carefully placed them in a box for me. She made friendly conversation, accurately rang up my purchase, and kindly thanked me. Here are my reviews for my desserts: Raspberry vanilla cake - $4.25 - 4.5 stars - I bought one slice of white cake that had vanilla frosting and some raspberry filling. The cake was fresh and had tart flavors, and the icing tasted sweet. Cherry pie bar - $3 - 4 stars - This bar contained a top layer of cherries. The flavor of cherries was subtler than I had expected. Apple pie bar - $3 - 3.5 stars - This bar contained a very thin layer of apple. I would recommend adding more apples for more flavor. Lemon pie bar - $3 - 5 stars - This bar had a strong taste of lemon and a nicely crispy crust. Cherry-chocolate scone - $3.25 - 3.5 stars - This scone was a large size. It contained a thin layer of cherries and chocolate chips. 6 various cookies - $5 - I rate the peanut-butter cookie as 4 stars, the sugar-sprinkle cookie as 3.5 stars, the snickerdoodle cookie as 3.5 stars, the chocolate-chip cookie as 3.5 stars, the oatmeal-raisin cookie as 4.5 stars, and the chocolate-cherry cookie as 3.5 stars. Of course, everyone has their own personal taste, but in general, my higher ratings are for the intense flavors.

Very disappointed, wouldn't recommend…read more Called in a cupcake order ahead of time and asked for a dozen split between vanilla cupcakes/vanilla frosting and chocolate cupcakes/chocolate frosting. They clearly forgot the chocolate frosting was supposed to be on the chocolate cupcakes and did not even bother to take them out of the case to fix. There is white frosting smeared on the surrounding plastic case around the chocolate cupcakes, and also a thin layer still on the tops, under the newly placed frosting. I am surprised these used to fulfill my order. First time customer, last time customer.

The Pie Place makes not only pies but also cakes, cookies, pepperoni rolls, and other baked goods…read morefrom locally produced ingredients. Their pies are available in flavors such as blackberry, blueberry, peach, pineapple, pumpkin, and rhubarb. Their cakes are available in flavors such as chocolate, yellow, white, and red velvet with different flavors of fillings and icings. I first encountered The Pie Place not at their brick-and-mortar store but rather through a farmers' market. I saw small pies in a variety of flavors, and I chose two of the flavors. Each small pie cost several dollars. I ate the pies at home. The apple pie had a crispy crust, fresh apples, and the right amount of cinnamon and nutmeg, and I rate it as 4.5 stars. The cherry pie also had a crispy crust and was filled with sweet and tart cherries, and I rate it as 5 stars.

Since my best friends birthday is tomorrow, I wanted to get her something thoughtful. I was planning of getting a cake elsewhere, but decided to purchase a dessert here and give it a try. I did not want to purchase a whole cake for just us two, so I opted for two cakes in a cup. I choose the Hershey's chocolate and strawberry shortcake. If they taste as delicious as they smell, I know they will be fantastic. The young lady who served me was very kind. I had a couple questions, and she answered every single one, which helped me make my decision. I can not wait to try their breakfast pastries soon!

The pineapple pastry was tasty and flakey. As I'm getting ready to pay, I notice they had tamales in the behind the counter. Perfect timing I thought since it was lunch time. I go home unwrap the foil and open up the chicken tamale. Oh my. Inside there was one slice of potato, a tiny piece of carrot and this round bone that was breaking apart with a little bit of chicken. I did take a bite and sadly it was gross. I can't even imagine if I had bitten into the bones. Please stick to baking pastries only. If it wasn't for the tamale you would have received a five star review.
