My husband wanted to surprise me with a cake, something that he had never done before. ( I have had…read morea lot of cakeless birthdays, not by choice!) The day he was supposed to pick it up, I was browsing online, and they had an ad on a site that I follow. Lo and behold, there was a beautiful birthday cake with my name on it, spelled just like I spell my name! So I jokingly asked my husband if that cake was for me......his face when he saw the picture said it all! He actually thought I had been snooping around (which I wasn't, but have in the past ) So he was supposed to go pick it up in an hour, which he did. When he got home and opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised. Even though I had already seen a picture of it, it was way more beautiful in person! It was covered in gold glitter, which I love! The smell of the cake was amazing! We have not had any yet, but if it tastes like it smells, I will be in heaven. The husband of the cake company explained to my husband that his wife gets a little excited to post the new cakes they make, so other than that little hiccup, we couldn't be more pleased with the cake. And the price is extremely reasonable.

After my previous cake baker decided to back out of making my cake, I found myself scrambling for a…read morecake maker the month of my wedding. I found Mary Poppins through the knot and wedding wire and decided to give them a try. My friend and I showed up at our appointment, and she had forgotten about us. We were flexible and were able to come back later that night, after we got some errands done... and honestly, the wait was worth it. The cake was probably the best I've had in a long time. She was very thorough and went through the history of weddings, and showed me how to pose for wedding cake cutting pictures. I decided to book her despite the mishap with the tasting appointment (her daughter got married the week before). She offered me a discount for her mishap, which really made it worth it. (She's inexpensive to begin with). The design of the cake was a very vintage, lace cake design, and it couldn't have been more perfect the day of. Everyone wouldn't stop raving about the cake and that we had SO MANY flavors. Guests were also happy they got to pick which one they wanted, instead of being force fed whatever was given to them. We had a ton of leftover cake, and we were able to take it home with us. She makes extra cake to feed the kitchen and waitstaff, and doesn't charge you for it. (Makes you look like a rockstar). They stayed to cut the cake for us, and were super professional. They even brought their own boxes. They would have brought napkins, plates, forks, knives, etc. if the venue wouldn't have provided those for us. Jackie was even nice enough to lend us a cake cutting set (I forgot to buy one... OOOOPS). I would highly recommend Mary Poppins Cake Factory for a wedding cake. I can't wait for my 1 year anniversary cake. I will be using them again in the future.

We have driven up here from Ohio twice now, just for the bread! And even with all that, I managed to take zero pictures! It's a crime. This place deserves pictures. The breads, in particular, are gorgeous. We got sandwiches here once and they were both solid. We took them nextdoor to the park and had a delightful picnic. I tried to order the bacon cheddar grilled cheese, but they were out of bacon! I subbed turkey, asked for the mustard aioli (which it turned out was waaaaaay more mustard than aioli...maybe just straight mustard) on the side. I also asked them for a side of the fig spread they use on their brie sandwich and boy am I glad I did! It was great on this sandwich. The bread was their plain sourdough, which is predictably great. The Italian sandwich - this comes on the foccacia. This bites well, but it does not have any stretch to it. It's very soft, but also had a sort of grainy texture. It was a little messy from the Italian dressing, but otherwise it was a pretty decent cold cut sandwich. I might ask for it with a different bread in the future. Polish sausage pretzel dog - The polish sausage wasn't very flavorful, but it did the job. Would have liked more salt on the pretzel. Needed maybe a little longer in the oven, imo, but maybe that's so you can reheat at home without consequences. Took half of this one home to reheat and I can't say that went well, altho that's probably mostly on the toaster over we used, which was a hellbeast of inconsistent heatblasts. If you have more social machinery, ymmv on the reheating. Garlic cheese sticks - this is their light foccacia style bread, I think. It's pretty garlicky with a decent amount of cheese on it. We liked it but idk that we would get it again either. It was a decent little snack. We also got some coffees here, one iced mocha half sweet (it came possibly with whipped cream or cold foam on top, we couldn't tell which), and a Cafe Miel, hot. The mocha was solid, not too sweet, chocolatey & milky but the coffee taste still came thru. This would be way too sweet at full sweet, but half was great. The Miel was a nice blend of honey and cinnamon, but is also order that half sweet next time. It wasnt overwhelming, but I prefer my drinks less sweet. If that's you, too, also order everything half sweet here! They're very accommodating. Cakelettes in birthday cake and cookies & cream - I thought the cake on these were both really nice, great texture, moist. The chocolate one has a larger crumb and was more moist. The filling of the cookies & cream was outstanding. Basically crushed up oreos in whatever their buttercream is. The cake on this one was like a pie shell that they filled with icing, with an Oreo on top (which was soft from the refrigerated case). The birthday cake had more cake and less icing, more like a flat cupcake with icing on top. The flavor of the icing on that one was fine, but nothing special. My partner and I argued over whether the sprinkles made or ruined the experience, so just know that there are a decent amount of them on the edges of the icing and also lots baked into the cake itself and if you love em, great! If not...avoid. Staff recommendations were the Cherry Chip & Blueberry Lavender, but we tried neither on this trip. Funny enough, our favorite darn thing we've ever had here was a mistake item We came back here hoping to find them, but there were non, so we asked and learned the story of their Frankenstein birth! Apparently, when they make one of their regular menu items wrong, they have these leftover bits that they turn into Whoopie Pies. These are basically the cakelettes, but in a sandwich form. These hit me right in the childhood feels. A nostalgic flavor that sent me right back to my grandma's kitchen. Personally, I think they should be making this mistake full time and twice on Sundays. I would drive half an hour to relive my childhood flavor memories anytime.

I used to genuinely enjoy supporting this bakery, which makes this disappointing to write…read more After learning more about how the tip jars are handled, I no longer feel comfortable spending money there. Like most customers, I assumed the tips placed in those jars were going directly to the employees working behind the counter and making drinks during busy rushes. Finding out that employees reportedly do not directly receive those tips feels misleading and leaves a bad taste in my mouth. The staff always seem to work incredibly hard, especially during rushes, and customers tip because they want to support THEM. If tip money is being used differently, customers deserve transparency about that. For me personally, this -- combined with other experiences that made me feel unwelcome -- has changed how I view the business entirely. I'll be choosing to support other local businesses moving forward.
