Isn't this cupcake just as cute as it is scrumptious? Adorable and delectable at the same time!
This place is hardly new given it's being Yelped about, and written up all the time, but my two cents must be added to the choir — this is some of the softest, moistest cakes I've ever had, and I am including Freeport and Ettore's in this evaluation, it's almost like a chiffon cake-style.
There cupcakes are not only in great flavors like my current love (German chocolate - harder to find than you'd think), to red velvet, as well as there famous Lu Lu (similar to an awesome hostess cupcake).
Another fun treat, who doesn't love cake and ice cream together?
It's the only reason to attend a birthday party, so when I saw them take a super soft cupcake and add a dollop of gelato on top I was in heaven! My favorite combo was butter pecan on top of their chocolate cupcake - insane, the flavor almost tasted like there was a bit of Bourbon in it...
I asked, there wasn't unfortunately

So in buying up the entire store (always for research purposes, of course) we also got to try their coconut cake (not covered in the traditional cream cheese frosting but instead an Italian Buttercream - much better, and when given time to warm up, was even better) although I only got a bit of the pumpkin cheesecake before it was confiscated by another mouth in our group it was creamy as well as spicy, and only ever-so tart.
The famous chocolate banana tart was a bit surprising, as I'm a total purist, and chocolate and banana's aren't to mix - but they do so well here, a chocolate lining, filled with banana cream, and topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
Outside of the exciting sweets their cafe menu is small, but their ingenious chef created something called a StudMuffin. Not only is this a super cute name, but it's also a great cold day lunch as well. It's a meatloaf with onions and bacon inside, wrapped in a flaky puff pastery, and topped with parmasan whipped mashed potatoes and topped with more crispy bacon...all on the side with a healthy salad...to balance it all out.
As a testament to their customer service I came in on a dreary Saturday and the owner turned on the oven and made sure that I got to try one of these morsels. Outstanding!! Not only a great lunch, but it also got me thinking it would work great at a dinner party!
This family owned business is always manned by a family member at the counter, so I've gotten to know Trey (of TreyBcakes), mom and dad...from their very convenient hours, as they are open in the evening (when do people want desert? after dinner!!), to quality of cake, fun food ideas, to family-owned business this is one of my current favorites, and is quite worth the exploring!
