Don’t miss out on their fabulous cupcakes and macaroons in their storefront. If you get a chance to have the salted caramel macaroons, take it! And now a little note from Krista:

I use local ingredients and enjoy working with each couple to come up with unique and personalized desserts that represent the couple. I love creating innovative flavor combinations, but have an appreciation for the classics as well. In addition to cupcakes and French macaroons, I also do dessert buffets with a variety of bite sized desserts options.
