Testimonials

On 9/19/2026 Christine S. had this to say:
This place is such a gem. When we walked in, we were greeted by the owner; she was incredibly friendly and informative of gluten-free items she sells. They have both gluten free soup and cakes available regularly; homemade. I love that they have their soups listed with clear to read allergens. We came in here for cake, but left with two soups as well. The cake was incredibly most and looking forward to trying the soup tomorrow. Such a lovely local quaint business.

The best scones I've ever had!! Cinnamon were delicious. Will try blueberry next week at the BG Farmers Market.

On 6/30/2026 Felicia had this to say:
I had the pleasure of trying the blueberry scone and carrot soup, and both were excellent. The scone was fresh, light, and perfectly baked, while the soup was flavorful, comforting, and clearly made with care. The quality of the food and the welcoming atmosphere made for a wonderful experience. I look forward to visiting again. Testimonial written by Felicia on this site.
