We ordered the honey garlic toast, which was so tasty. The cheese was melted to perfection and the bread was fluffy, with the chopped nuts, honey, and herbs being a very nice touch. The drinks were amazing--we ordered the lychee lemonade and iced lavender latte. One of their menu items is enough for two people's snack. This place was awesome, we'll be coming again!! If you are looking for a place to chitchat, work, planning a business and/or just day dreaming, Sweet Talk is your place!

I went at around 3pm on a Saturday to get some pastries for a friend's gathering and chose this…read morespot due to the proximity to their place and also the reviews online. I am so glad I went! The pastries get freshly filled with filling upon your order, and they box it up so nicely! There are aeating benches for you to sit and wait for your order, which didn't take too long. I got 3 cannolis, 2 cream puffs, and 2 cookies (I got the last chocolate cookie of the day). Service was friendly and quick as well, only took about 10ish minutes! Everything tasted amazing! And best thing about them was that it was not too overly sweet! It was the perfect amount that makes me want to keep tasting more. The cookies especially were so satisfying and soft and I loved how everything was quite decent sized as well! I will definitely be coming back!

So when I am, I always stop by. The pastries are the best I've ever had. I am a lobster tail junkie. Whenever I'm in NY or Philly, I seek out the best. I've been to several famous Italian bakeries in these cities and never found one as good as Utica Bakery in Apex. It's world class. Just look at the cannoli cream and pistachio cream stuffing those bad boys. Their savory foods are equally as impressive. This stuffed bread with meatballs and Parmesan was excellent and I love their tomato pie (not pictured), which I have had in the past. Everything here is outstanding! If you're anywhere close on a weekend, get there asap.

The only downside was when we walked in around 2pm there was no one at the front, so we had to call out to the back. A girl eventually came out and she seemed kinda annoyed that we were ordering food, which wasn't the best. I got the basic peach cobbler with ice cream and it tasted solid. The portion was big, but there wasn't a ton of peach compared to the amount of dough, so that was a bit disappointing. Still a pretty good dessert overall.

I was the only one in line, waiting patiently for the teen to take my order. When she finally took my order, all went well, and it took a few minutes to get them made. 3 seemed the smallest amount you could order. They are a good size, so I don't think most people could eat three at once. The first one that was hot was good. But I didn't care for the one I had later that evening, as it didn't taste the same. They come covered in so much powdered sugar, so be warned that it will go everywhere. If I could order just one, I'd stop again, but I wouldn't order three again.
