Emily is not only kind, but she is a true visionary when it comes to cakes and cookies! She is…read moreprofessional, Timely, and just all-around a great Businesswoman! We have ordered cookies from her for a housewarming gift, and didn't have a clue as to what to get. Well it was Emily to the rescue! She had the idea to do cookies in the shape of keys, and also a front door with a wreath on it!! Since I'm not very creative, she was able to just put it ALL together (even the colors!) for me just right off the bat!! They couldn't have been more adorable, and everyone loved their sugar cookies; I felt like the hero all night, and I didn't even do anything but buy them, haha! We'd also gotten a simple cake from Emily a couple years ago for my friend's first birthday party. It was only about 10 people, so my friend didn't want anything over-the-top; she just wanted a really small cake that would be cute for pics. My friend's dad had passed away right before this, and he was a fireman, so Emily created the perfect little cake, designed perfectly for her little guy. On top of that, it was chocolate and delicious!! We've also gotten her holiday cookies-- she sells out SUPER quickly, so make sure you place an order in time! We missed out one year because we waited until the last minute. They're the cutest things I've ever seen!! We will ALWAYS be patronizing Emily, and we feel lucky to have our "own dessert chef" from now on! (Haha, sounds silly, but Emily has made us feel like family! ) I'm going to come back to add pics / edit if I can.. I don't have them toward the front of my phone and it could take hours to find them, but I will eventually!! Thank you Emily Wheeler Custom Cakes- you've made our lives so much sweeter!!

She did my best friend's wedding as well, both themes very different, but both turned out amazing! She was such a pleasure to work with. We kept in touch throughout my planning process and she easily made adjustments, and worked with our budget! My sweet table consisted of customized sugar cookies, cake pops, and lemon bars, as well as other assorted candies to tie in with my pastel color theme (light blue, pale pink, and peach). She supplied everything! Cake stands, candy jars, scoopers etc! It turned out wonderful! My guests still rave about the cake pops! I highly recommend her!

This wonderful boutique bakery is located on Main Street in the historic district of Middletown,…read moreand is housed in a building that is over 100 years old (it used to house a bank). The bakery is co-owned by a local mother-daughter team! They make beautiful wedding cakes (a couple were there doing cake testings and creating their desired cake while we visited). The cake and frosting options looked amazing. In addition to wedding cakes they take orders for cakes, cookies, cupcakes, and a variety of pastries. Orders can be made in person or online. There are delightful servings of pastries (macaroons, cinnamon rolls, scones, tarts, cake slices and more) for sale in the shop. They also serve coffee, hot chocolate and cold drinks. My husband and I shared a slice of carrot cake and it was so moist and delicious. It was reminiscent of my grandmother's carrot cake that I enjoyed years ago. I suggest going early for the best selection, they sell out quickly! There are several seating areas if one chooses to eat in the shop and the space is decorated simply and elegantly. The baked goods take center stage! In addition, the bakery offers workshops and classes about cake decorating and more. Classes are offered for beginner level and for those with more experience. The space can be rented for bridal showers, baby showers and other events. The bakery is open Thur, Fri, and Sat (There are Tues and Wed hours available for pre-order pick up). Do yourself a favor, experience this wonderful bakery!

I'm a big fan of Glow Worm Play Cafe. For so many reasons. Perhaps one of the most unacknowledged…read moreperks of Glow Worm is that it's attached to Staggeringly Delicious. One of the biggest misconceptions I've encountered in conversation about Glow Worm is that people don't realize that while being incredibly convenient for Glow Worm customers, Staggeringly Delicious is an entirely separate establishment. You don't need to be at the play cafe to get some of what truly is staggeringly delicious. The chocolate chip cookies, arguably the best in the city, seem to be one of the best kept secrets in Louisville. They're made with brown butter, triple chocolate, and topped with just the right amount of sea salt. I'm a big fan of blueberry and lemon desserts, but everything everyone else does, well...they just seems to do better. Their frittatas are phenomenal. It seems like pretzel buns are becoming more and more popular, but having them made fresh is just superior. The breakfast panini and turkey panini are crunchy, gooey, savory, and hit the spot every single time. Every time I order, I'm satisfied. It's consistent. It's affordable. I don't feel guilty when I eat there. I don't feel guilty when I feed it to my family. Sadly, that's becoming hard to come by. If you're near the Highlands and you're jonesing for a simple lunch or a treat, put this place on your radar. Don't be dissuaded by the play cafe sign out front. The play cafe is absolutely second-to-none, but you don't need a kid or play date to enjoy Staggeringly Delicious.

And along with being a treat to look at, they're a treat to eat as well. I've gotten the opportunity on a few occasions, most recently at Bernheim Forest's ColorFest. I was impressed by first the creativity. Love the paint-your-own cookie kits, which include a white iced cookie and a sheet with edible watercolor paints. And to eat, I got one of the chocolate chip cookies. This was sweet, soft, chewy -- everything I want in this classic cookie. If you see Baked out and about or if you need some beautiful cookies made for a special occasion -- or even a not-so-special occasion too; they're good for all -- I highly recommend Baked.

Delivery was available on Saturday for a $5 up charge. I found them on the Louisville Take Out Facebook site. People asking about paint your own cookies were communicating with Baked or praising them for previous orders. Ordering online was easy and I got a confirmation that my order was received. A few days later I got my invoice (everything is pre-pay). Very simple process and my invoice confirmed my order for pickup and another for delivery. We purchased 6 shortbread cookies and with them got 4 plastic cups with food dye plus 2 paintbrushes. Decorating 6 was enough for me and my boys. The dye needed a couple of coats to stick so it wasn't a quick paint job. The cookies are really good - very sweet! I didn't need more than one for dessert. We also sent cookie packages to our parents and they loved them too. Delivery was on time and they rang the doorbell at drop off. Thank you Baked! I'll definitely continue to use and recommend them to others. I'm glad to see our local community supporting them. They're having some of their strongest sales ever!

The amount of variety on the menu was pretty nice, looks like there's something here for most people.

It comes with mixed greens (glad to see more salads with mixed greens instead of romaine), roasted chicken, nice crispy bacon, a hardboiled egg, blue cheese, black olives, tomato, avocado and a good amount of dressing. It tastes very fresh and is a decent portion size, but in terms of flavor there wasn't much going on. It tastes like "greens" and that's kinda it. I don't know what the cause is, like it's seasoned but I just didn't get much flavor. Perhaps my pallet prefers stronger flavors over lighter ones, so take this with a grain of salt (figuratively, or maybe literally). If you're in the area, check em out.
