As an amateur baker and a cake lover, I have loved everything I've ordered from here. My favourites are the cinnamon buns and the cupcakes with violet buttercream. It's also a chill environment to hang out with friends and have brunch.

Used to be obsessed with the cookies here but lately it’s been very hit and miss (mainly miss, just to varying degrees)
