There was plenty of street parking and I old schooled the meter with a shiny quarter. The business is next door to Aroy Thai Garden (also vegetarian). Upon entering the brightly lit and freshly painted shop you will see a unique opening between the two businesses. Keeping the vegan flowing freely! There is seating at the front, near the windows and the cases filled with goodies are toward the back. We were immediately welcomed. The gentleman behind the counter excitedly greeted us. My son and I looked over the cookies, bars and cupcakes and finally decided on a tray of 4 cupcakes. We were here for my husband that does not eat dairy, most nuts and a list of other things. Before I made my picks I discussed what the nut free options were and when I stumped the nice man, he called his wife, the baker. Kudos to him for going above and beyond. We picked up Cookies and Cream, Boston Cream, Triple Chocolate....and I can't remember the 4th....but he ate it and enjoyed it! While I didn't actually try any of the sweets, my husband said that what he has had was good. He was told to savor them, because they were not inexpensive. Definitely worth the trip and the splurge. We'll be back to try the other offerings soon! Best of luck to Middletown's newest vegan bakery.

    I am so glad I found this place. It is a completely gluten-free space, which is always exciting to…read morefind, and they also have vegan options as well. I tried so many things, including the whoopie pie, cupcakes, cookies, and ravioli. The mushroom ravioli was my favorite of the ravioli options, but the blondie/brookie was top tier. Truly 10/10, no notes. The staff were really kind and helpful. They gave suggestions and guided us through the options, which I appreciated because there was so much to choose from. For anyone gluten-free, this place is such a gem. I would absolutely recommend stopping in and trying a little bit of everything.

The lemon cupcake was good and the frosting was light, fluffy, and delicious. The chocolate cupcake was very dense and flavorless (we ate them both at room temperature as instructed). The lemon bar was not good at all. We took two bites and threw the rest away. I can make better gf lemon bars and cupcakes at home. The doughnut was also incredibly dense and did not taste good. Nothing like an actual doughnut. We couldn't finish it either. Overall we were disappointed and will mostly likely not go back. If we do, we'd stick with the lemon cupcakes and skip everything else!

    I've had the pleasure of ordering from Sienna and Danyahl! First, I randomly just looked up…read morebakeries near my house, sort of last minute, which I don't recommend, but Danyahl responded right away, and was so very kind and accommodating to help me select the strawberry celebration cake you see picture below. I wasn't sure which cake to pick because they all looked delicious. and her creative artistry seemed impeccable, but I know we didn't have time for that, but I'm keeping that in mind for other occasions in the future Note that this is a small business owner getting her feet firmly planted on the ground, has an interesting story and one that we should all be supporting. She is local in West Hartford, and while has an incorporated business still bakes out of her home, which is great, because this cake was full of love. Now back to the cake. This was amazing. it was layered with a confetti cake and layers of cheesecake. Yes, cheesecake! There's also a thin layer of fresh strawberry jam. I picked it up on Saturday didn't get to eat it until Sunday night and it was tremendous..highly recommend leaving it out for a while so that it gets room temperature and all the flavors meld together. It is now a few days later, and it is still quite moist and soft after storing it in some Tupperware All in all so very happy to have ordered from Sienna and I am hoping for nothing but success for this business, Danyahl and her family.

    We came early and she still took our order she was very sweet and let us sit inside while we waited…read moreshe also made conversation. I loved it here its gorgeous inside as well
