She was able to take a simple color palette and inspiration photo and bring it to life in the most beautiful way. She even added an extra decorative touch to the gift boxes - hibiscus flower clips that matched the palette of the cookies perfectly. I was wowed and so were my bridesmaids! Highly recommend for any special occasion that warrants a custom sweet treat. :)

When I arrived, the door showed completely different hours and was not even open that day. I called the number on the door and told them their online hours and days were incorrect but so far they have not been changed online. The hours on the door are Wed-Sat, noon to 3pm. So today is one of the days the door says they're open. I got here about ten after 12 (it says they open at noon), it's now 12:20 and there's no one here. I called the number on the door and it goes to a voicemail that doesn't even describe say its name so I'm unsure if it's the correct number. As Im in the lot another customer came. She asked me if I knew what was going on. She said her daughter had a wedding cake from here that was wonderful and she had done a tasting with her other daughter. She's been trying to order a wedding cake for her. She said she got ahold of someone once, they told her to come in to order it, and it's now been three weeks and she has tried and no one has responded to her request. I've heard great things about this place and wish I could go in. I'm going to assume that since no one is here now they have not baked any cakes or at least not fresh so it's probably not worth waiting around. I really hope to try this place, the cakes are supposed to be great! But I'm a little irritated that I've now driven here twice from southeast Minneapolis and no one is around.

You order at the counter, take a number and they bring the food to your table. Customer service is average. This time we got the steak salad, a side of homemade chips, and a pastry. The salad was amazing and we loved the chips. My only disappointment is that they don't serve lates or cold brew coffee. For having a brunch cafe vibe you'd think they'd want to do this. Thankfully there is a caribou in the same lot.

The place was empty. Eventually an employee came out. No greeting or anything just stood there until we ordered. I almost always get cake batter w/ Kit Kat mixed in. One thing I've always liked about Cold Stone is that the ice cream is thicker and doesn't melt so fast but not sure if the utensils they used were warm or what but my ice cream was a bit soft & pretty melted by time all 3 orders were made & we paid. It was good otherwise. Place was fairly clean. They have 2-3 tables to dine in. Parking is easy, as it's in a strip mall as well as shared larger parking lot.

Information overload...are you ready?…read more Before our IVF transfer, which was a HUGE moment for us, at CCRM just across the way, we stopped into Rustica Bakery. We only had a few minutes to spare and thought, why not, let's treat ourselves. Best decision. The banana bread was hands down the best I've EVER had. I'm not exaggerating when I say I now feel like I need this in my life at least once a week....which is slightly dangerous. The space itself was busy, but there was still plenty of seating, and so many pastries and drinks to choose from. We had someone meeting us who was a little worried about parking, but there's a separate entrance (away from the mall) and plenty of spots, which makes it super easy. I'll be honest, the service didn't wow me, but the quality of the food more than made up for it, so it's still a five star experience in my book. Just something to know going in. Such a simple stop, and one we won't forget. It was the perfect moment before a really big one for us.

Megan, she made the inspired recipe & maybe it has that touch of love that makes all the ingredients a well balanced hum! When I popped into Patrick's Deli in Edina today and ordered their Roseberry Shakerato -- it was waiting for me (& you?) ... something special I didn't know I needed but it stood out. How can I not order a decaf Roseberry Shakerato? Made with decaf espresso, this beautiful shaken drink arrived in a tall glass with perfect layers and a luxurious foam (the photo really doesn't lie!). The star is that dreamy swirl of pink rose-and-raspberry whipped topping on top. It's creamy, fragrant, and -- most importantly -- genuinely not too sweet. The rose and berry accents are elegant and balanced, finished with rose petals and a touch of pink crumble petals for texture. Every sip felt like a little celebration: floral, jazzy, uplifting, and just plain joyful. This is sophisticated, refreshing, and fun all at once. Whether you're doing decaf like me or going full caffeine, Patrick's Deli has created something special here. I'll absolutely be back. If you're anywhere nearby, treat yourself. This drink is main-character felicity in a glass.

I was a bit nervous as $50 seemed a little high but after picking it up and seeing how gorgeous it was in person I was already happy with my decision. The best past was obviously cutting into and eating it! I bake frequently as a hobby and would pay $50 again for this cake in a HEARTBEAT. The texture, the flavor, the consistency in both the cake layer heights and how they were baked - it all was perfect. We got 8 generous slices out of this cake and everyone was able to enjoy the fresh fruit on top (although the dipped strawberries I think are the best!). It was perfectly soaked so that it wasn't dry whatsoever but also was able to stand up and not squish under the weight of the toppings. The cake also wasn't too sweet whatsoever (the boarder frosting on the bottom was a little sweet but there's so little of it it didn't make a difference). Overall definitely happy with this purchase and will be ordering from Pastelería Gama again in the future!

Truthfully, I was on the hunt for a bathroom, but was more than willing to grab a sweet treat while we were there. I had already peeked at what people were enjoying out on the patio, and on such a perfect spring day, it was hard to pass up. We ended up trying a few macarons. They were beautifully displayed and there were so many flavors to choose from. We had a family dinner later that day, so they felt like a great option to bring along. We stopped in closer to 1pm so I'm guessing the selection of donuts and cakes was a bit picked over compared to the morning hours. That said, they still have a good variety and I would definitely go back earlier in the day to try one of those donuts! We had a few questions about how the macarons would hold up in a warmer car, and the employee helping us was happy to answer everything. It seemed like the owner was there as well and heading out for the day. She was very kind, especially to let us use the bathroom. One quick note, Google shows Amy's Cupcake Shoppe as permanently closed, so they may want to look into updating that. Overall, a really great stop and one I'm glad I stumbled into - those usually are the best!

I've tried their cheddar jalapeño pretzel, which was really flavorful and delicious. I personally would've loved a little more salt or spice, but it was still very good. The staff is always incredibly friendly and genuinely loves to chat, which is one of my favorite things about coming to a local bakery. I recently got the chance to try their raspberry cupcake, and it was amazing. It tasted so fresh and moist, and the flavor was spot on without being overly sweet. I'm already planning a return visit to try another cupcake flavor soon. The inside is just as charming as the food, with cute signs throughout and a couple of small tables where you can sit and enjoy your coffee and treats. Overall, it's a great spot to stop by whether you're grabbing something to go or hanging out for a bit.
