    Carrot cake cupcake with cream cheese frosting. Amazing.
    Stuart H.

    Wow! We've tried cupcake all over the State of CT and were surprised to learn of Mia's in our town. Holy smokes. Fresh, real butter cream and cream cheese icing. And it isn't just cupcakes. Lots of other baked desserts like apple crumble, cookies and cannolis.

    This is really a beautiful bakery owned by sisters. I met Mia. She was really nice. The cupcakes are really good. Highly recommend this place. The strawberry chocolate and chocolate mousse cupcakes were really good. They tasted fresh. When you order the cupcake, they put the frosting on it, so they're really fresh. The Nutella cookie is really popular because it's so good. Nice to support a women owned business.

    We just had Sweet Mia's make the cake and cupcakes for our baby shower and everything was so delicious. Everyone was raving about how good everything tasted. We ordered a vanilla and chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling and whip cream frosting. I sent in a reference photo and it came out so cute! We also got cupcakes in cookies and cream, reese's and chocolate mousse which were all very tasty. I am so happy I found Sweet Mia's!

    Oh Sweet Mia, I have been looking forward to cozying up by the campfire with one of your tempting cupcakes, but you've made my brown eyes blue. I moseyed up to your chuck wagon where I was greeted with a smile and offer of assistance. The days offerings were checked out with me choosin' a Boston Cream for the missus and one other, the name of which escapes me. I feel like I have been bushwacked by the Dalton gang after tasting the frostings that were more akin to marshmallow Fluff than butter cream. The bottoms were equally disappointin' with one drier than dirt and the other sufferin' from too little flavor. It was with a tear in my beer that their half eaten remains were buried on Boot Hill. Sorry Sweet Mia, I am wishing happy trails to you, but it is time for me to hopalong and ride off into the sunset. Hi-Yo, Silver! Away!

    My family and I stumbled upon Sweet Mia's while in the area picking up dinner, wanting something sweet. First off, the absolute cutest little bakery. When you walk inside, it is so happy. Everything is displayed so beautifully with a nice board of cupcake flavors listed. The young woman working was so kind (and beautiful) and informed us that the cupcakes were decorated and boxed to order. We were so excited. We ended up getting a variety box of cupcakes (pictured) and a lemon square and some gluten free cheesecake brownies. When we got home and finally dug into these, not one single dessert disappointed. The lemon squares were perfectly tart and soft. The cheesecake brownies were rich and delicious without being too dense or dry. The cupcakes were the true stars though. Every flavor was absolute perfection; inside and out. We ended up sharing some of the flavors and even family members who claimed they "weren't (insert flavor here) people" had to sing the praises of every last cupcake. They were perfect flavors, perfect sizes, perfect proportions, perfectly decorations. I would be back here in a heartbeat with another sweet tooth demand. Honestly, SO much better quality and taste than most of these "big name" cupcake businesses around Connecticut. Highly recommend!

    It happened to be Valentines Day so I was pleased that they still had a large selection of goodies! When I arrived I realized I had been here once before. It wasn't that memorable the first time because they didn't have the nutella filled chocolate chip cookies I was hoping to try. They had them this time. They are topped with sea salt which definitely brings out the sweetness of the chocolate. The cookie was very good but would be better as a simple chocolate chip cookie, of which there aren't any really good ones around. I would suggest using finer sea salt, too, as the larger pieces became too salty at times. The nutella filling is nice but makes it just too sweet. I'm sure there's a huge follow for it but I would prefer a simple cc cookie. I also got a hummingbird cupcake. It was denser than I'm used to but very good nonetheless.

So here I am at Pat's looking at all the wonderful choices of ice creams, and sherbets I decided on one scoop of peaches and cream, and one scoop of lemon pie!

There was graham crackers in with this creamy lemon ice creamy concoction. One of the best choices here at Pat's and it's new! I love coming here. Pat is such a nice guy, warm, friendly, treats everybody like he's known them for years, and his ice cream choices are spectacular This place is old school and I love sitting outside watching the traffic go by enjoying the ice cream. If you are in the area, it's just south of downtown on route 10 on the right heading towards Cheshire right after CVS. Thanks again, Pat. I hope to see you again this summer.

In the case of Tulmeadow Farm and Lacroix's Homemade (I'm posting the same update for both), I have to admit that I had it somewhat wrong. Both Tulmeadow and Lacroix's made @cticecreamtour's Top 15 CT Creameries. My original reviews for both Tulmeadow and Lacroix's were both good btw. I just didn't initially connect with the flavors I tried in the way that I did with my other CT favorites. Since those initial reviews, everything I tried at each has been a banger. At Lacroix's, I've now had Banana ice cream, Peanut Butter Cup ice cream, Biscoff ice cream and a Sundae with coconut caramel ice cream and a S'mores flavor. The sundae with hot fudge, peanut butter sauce, whipped cream and maybe the best cherry I've ever had in a sundae (don't know what they did) was great, but it's harder to pick out the flavors of the ice cream with all the delicious toppings. The ice cream seemed very good though. The Peanut Butter Cup flavor was outstanding. Very rich with big gobs of cups. The banana flavor was amazingly realistic. And the Biscoff was very good too. While Lacroix's is very popular and there is always a steady flow of business, I like that I get access to the friendly owners there too. Lacroix's is 5 Stars and I'm updating my review.

My sundae was packed with 3 large scoops, strawberries, sprinkles, whipped cream and a cherry. It was amazing. The ice-cream is creamy, not whipped full of air like others. The flavors jump out and grab you. My wife's black raspberry chip was loaded with chocolate. The pistachio ice-cream was loaded with whole pistachio nuts. We traveled farther but we didn't have better.

We couldn't wait to come back. Several months later on our second visit, we arrived well before their posted closing time - 9pm. It was around 7:45pm, the lights were on, but the door was locked and the staff seemed to be cleaning up. One of them looked up, saw us standing at the door and then went back to doing whatever they were doing without bothering to engage with us. It was incredibly frustrating having driven almost an hour with the expectation of getting some delicious food, only to be ignored by staff at a time when they were supposed to be open. Many months later (giving them the benefit of the doubt that the early closure on our last visit was a fluke) we made the trip up again. We arrived to find the place was locked up and dark - again during a time when they were supposed to be open. Today I was with some friends and we stopped to have lunch at Smokin' With Chris next door. During our meal, I mentioned my past experiences with The Lab, but also said how good the food was. So, we walked over to look at the menu and possibly pick up dinner for later that evening. It was around 1:30pm, the lights were off and the door was locked. I double-checked their website, and they were supposed to be open at 11:30am. While I was on my phone, an employee came up, unlocked the door, turned on the lights and began his shift - two full hours after they were supposed to be open! WTF?! Apparently, the owners of The Lab seem to believe that their food is so epic that they can just operate their business whenever they like regardless of their posted hours. This total lack of consideration for their customers is beyond insulting. It's really too bad because the food is good, but not good enough to offset the unprofessional manner the owners are running (or in this case, not running) this place. There are way too many other great dining options available nearby that actually adhere to their posted hours to put up with this nonsense.

With axe throwing, a retro arcade, coffee, chocolate, and this bakery. I got to explore the exposed brick and large filament lights of this specific locale, and picked up some sweets from this little shop. It's very much loud and proud in it's appearances on popular food television. Having pride in your success is a good thing, but it's very much in your face about it. It also prices accordingly, making the price of the baked goods you get at least a couple bucks extra. Thankfully, the baked goods are actually pretty good. We got a couple misfits, a couple french macarons, and one of the dessert waffles they had. The misfit muffins tasted pretty good, soft and light, not too sweet, and well balanced. The French macarons, they were not too great. the filling was sweet but lacking depth. they were pretty though. The standout was the Dessert waffle. Sweet, crispy but cakey, and plenty of chocolate and peanut butter flavor. A surprising bite, and tasty. Overall, it's a good dessert place to go to and try out.

The bakery was initially founded as a cupcake truck. The two bakers were then featured on Food Network shows such as "Winner Cake All" and "Cupcake Wars", winning the latter. After that, they opened their first brick and mortar bakery. Most recently they competed on the Netflix show "Sugar Rush". A second location opened in Southington at the historic Factory Square complex in October 2021. Another location once existed at the Buckland Hills Mall in Manchester, but it has since closed. The locations offer cupcakes, custom cakes, cake pops, whoopie pies, cookies and muffins. I stopped at the Southington location of Hardcore Sweet for the first time this past July. Several businesses located at Factory Square were offering special menu items to celebrate Harry Potter's birthday. Factory Square is located conveniently alongside the popular Farmington Canal Trail, so I cycled there. Hardcore Sweet had several Harry Potter offerings that day, but by the time I had arrived most of them were sadly sold out. I ordered one of the few Harry Potter treats that they had left: Buckbeak's Breakfast Cupcake. It was delicious! I definitely need to come back to try more of their tasty treats on a future visit to Factory Square. I just need to get there earlier in the day when their selection is bigger.
