Bakery cookies are a great deal. Croissants are enormous, which was also amazing, and so tasty! Overall loved!

* If the food looks good in pictures, doesn't necessarily means it will taste good as well;
* Wrapping food items in tissue and sealing with dainty little stickers will not compensate for lack of quality;
* I ordered a sumptuous looking Cream Puff doused with powdered sugar and topped with mouth-watering strawberries.....what I got instead was this sad looking chocolate encrusted donut basically;
* The Spinach & Feta Bistro they sent was much smaller in size compared to the menu photo, bereft of any visible signs of spinach, and COLD.....they didn't even take care to warm it;
* The MOCHA arrived just lukewarm, and not very sweet at all......isn't the experience why one orders a fancy coffee for?
All of that combined with the fact that this merchant charges premium prices for reduced portion and quality had me feeling rather nauseated!!

I absolutely love the White Strawberry Shortcake-8"(8-10 Servings). I always order it for spontaneous celebrations in the workplace. Always a crowd pleaser!

Everything from Lavender is always excellent. I wish I could order everything on the menu! Their carrot cake cupcakes are probably the best I've ever had.

The Lava Cake was alright I was expecting it to be better. It's also super tiny the size of a cupcake. It's super rich and dense. I had to heat it up on the microwave though since it comes cold.
