New Bakery that opened up in downtown Fullerton. I ordered a few items off their menu. I really enjoyed their honey cake, Dobos cake & Carrot Cake! They have a lot of Romanian cake, it’s very unique. I also tried their langos. The shrimp Langos was my favorite. Their coffee is good too, I had their iced Spanish latte.

Karen Donatelli Bakery & Café Menu with Prices 57 Haywood St, Asheville

My family, who live all over the country, were converging in Asheville, NC, for my father’s 85th birthday. One of my sisters looked up bakeries in the area so we could order a cake ahead of time and pick it up once we were there. After careful consideration she selected Karen Donatelli Bakery & Cafe and ordered two cakes – a carrot cake and a chocolate cake. We stopped in on Saturday, June 8 to pick them up and could not have been more pleased. Not only was the bakery charming in and of itself, but the cakes… the cakes were works of art. They were truly lovely, beautifully decorated. Later that evening, after dinner, we brought out the cakes, lit the candles and cut and served the cakes. The carrot cake was one of the most moist and delicious carrot cakes we’d ever tasted. The chocolate was sublime. We enjoyed both very much and appreciated all the time, care, skill and artistry that went into them. Well done! Highly recommend!

Coffee Code – Menu with Prices – 1030 Rosecrans Ave, Fullerton

Iced hazelnut coffee anyone? This is the first time I’ve tried hazelnut coffee with ACTUAL coffee ice cubes in it. I absolutely LOVE this place. Like everything about it is awesome, from the atmosphere to the amazing coffee. To be frank, not many coffee shops open super early in the morning. However, Coffee Code has my back because they open at 6 AM everyday (except for Sundays). Other coffee shops normally open at 7 or 8 AM. Due to this, I end up going late to school. Thank God for Coffee Code and their opening hours, as well as phone call orders. One thing forsure is that the iced hazelnut latte is specifically the only item I order because hazelnut latte is just BOMB. What makes Coffee Code noticeable and very likable is that they also provide a great pastry selection, along with super friendly and amazing service! My two favorite baristas (Jurie and Elizabeth) are really warm and inviting, and willing to bring the best customer service to you. It’s refreshing to have friendly baristas in a hipster place when that is not always the norm. Additionally, I really love the combination of the vibe, the amazing drinks, and how inviting this space feels. The interior is also bright and modern space with several seating options including outlets for those hardworking students LOL. Overall, it is definitely a great place to work, read, chat. Thank you Coffee Code for the days I needed (still do) iced hazelnut latte. You guys really know how to bring delight to customers. I would say this makes one of my favorite coffee shops in Fullerton ?

Java Daddies – Menu with Prices – 1118 Howard St, Omaha

This is the cutest place. I’ve been here maybe 3-4 times and everyone who works here that I’ve encountered is so sweet and welcoming, and they all make FANTASTIC coffee! My favorite is an iced vanilla latte, my go-to at any coffee shop, and their’s is so good with enough coffee flavor peeking through so it’s not just another crazy sweet latte like a lot of other shops make. 10/10 so good. Again, everyone in there is always so friendly and they make it a very comfortable place to sit and hang out or to just run in and get a quick drink. My favorite coffee shop downtown for sure.

French Truck Coffee – Menu with Prices – 650 Poydras St Suite 102, New Orleans

I am not a â??coffee aficionado or expert, I just know what I want and what I love. Anyway, before we start walking around the beautiful Garden District, we stopped by at this coffee shop. We ordered Iced Mocha Latte, Oji drip Iced Coffee, â??and a â??muffin. Iced Mocha – This is my usual order in any new coffee shop that I visit, it becomes my baseline. For this particular location, their Mocha Latte is different from other Mocha Latte that I have tried. The combination of mocha and espresso give this sour taste, I think the roast of the bean is light to medium with fruity undertone which I don’t mind but not my favorite. They also put a lot of ice, but I think you can just ask them for less ice. Oji Drip Iced Coffee – The process of making this coffee is a separate attraction which you can see over the counter. The coffee itself tastesâ?? like a combination of some kind â??of tea and fruit flavor, truly not in my alley but it was a â??refreshing taste for the summer heat. Muffin – I totally forgot the name, but the softness and deliciousness of it stayâ?? with me. It was just a â??perfect pick-me-up muffin. Space – They do have a good amount of tables and chairs, where you can hang out with your friends, working, studying or just people watching. All in all, it was an okay experience, coffee was refreshing not my favorite but the muffin was amazing. I recommend to give them a try, you will have your coffee fix and an Instagramâ?? post.

Trendy Treatz – Menu with Prices – 18927 W Seven Mile Rd, Detroit

I ordered a carrot cake with buttercream frosting – which I missed the fact that a cake must be ordered a day ahead of time. The cake was good, with a fine crumb and moist. The problem was it was a spice cake with a bit of carrot, rather than a carrot cake with a bit of spice. I was disappointed in that aspect, but it may be others would be appreciative. Another variation where my tastes diverge was that the icing was very thin, though trimmed attractively. My son-in-law stated it needed more frosting! It was tasty, however.

Horizon Line Coffee – Menu with Prices – 1417 Walnut St B, Des Moines

I don’t take five stars lightly, but Horizon Line is the gold standard of coffee. My husband and I love trying new places, but this is one we make a point to go back to, or even drive to for the day. This place makes great coffee (we’ve loved everything we’ve tried) and makes you feel good. First of all, the no plastic concept – amazing idea and well executed. Please share your knowledge with my favorite Iowa City shops! There may have been initial hiccups, but we never felt them! Second, the price. I’ve found that my iced vanilla latte is under average price, which is especially amazing given the lack of plastic. I expected a sharp increase in price, but saw very little change, maybe a quarter or two. Finally, the actual product. Here, I usually treat myself to an iced vanilla latte and I’ve truly never seen it made like they do here. They use a martini shaker to mix and I think also to help make it colder before it’s poured into a glass container. All iced latte, no ice. Seriously, my favorite latte. Thanks Horizon Line, for your coffee, your sweet employees, and your conscious effort to save the planet. Can’t wait to come back!

Heart and Soul Coffee – Menu with Prices – 930 11th St, Modesto

Little brother wanted some coffee after having lunch. He recommended this place that is downtown. The ambiance was cool. Love the open space. I ordered a hot mocha and my brother ordered a different drink. Think it had the name of lumberjack latte but I could be wrong. The drinks were made fast but one issue. The girl made me an iced mocha and not a hot mocha. Oh well let’s run with it right. I’m actually glad I did. This iced mocha was good. Just the perfect amount of sweetness. If I had to do it all over, I would Order a non fat iced mocha. In the end, the screw up turned out to be a blessing. Thanks for the great iced mocha.

Confidential Coffee – Menu with Prices – 137 W 6th St, Long Beach

This place is such a cool coffee shop! My boyfriend and I came in to grab a drink and we were greeted by the owner, Denise. Since it was a hot day, she recommended to us the iced Mazapan latte and the pomegranate and blueberry iced tea. I looooved Mazapan latte. I never realized how much I love peanut flavor until I drank that. I didn’t expect it to be so refreshing. The pomegranate and blueberry iced tea was really delicious too, especially on a hot day. It was rimmed with Tajin, my favorite!! Besides the awesome and unique drink selections that they have, the shop itself is so aesthetically pleasing, with really great WiFi. Its close enough to CSULB to make a great study spot. It’s also quiet and there’s plenty of tables and outlets to claim, so this will definitely be a place that I’ll be studying at. I noticed that you need to find street parking for this place, but I didn’t have any trouble parking close. I highly recommend this place. Another perk is that the owner and the employees are so incredibly sweet so this place is a must try! And can maybe be your new favorite go to coffee shop!

The Fifth Tier Baking Studio Menu with Prices 54 Columbia St, Albany

The people who work here are lovely. The story behind this place is lovely (left the 9-5 grind to follow his passion, and hit quite a few roadblocks along the way). The teensy, tiny interior and pretty little goodies in the case are lovely. I just wished I loved the taste as much as I loved the place. The cinnamon buns are a very popular option. They’re extremely generous in size, soft, and satisfying, but they are too cinnamon-y to me. The glaze also leans more toward sugar glaze than cream cheese, and I really love a tangy-cream cheese cinnamon bun. I’ve enjoyed the sweet scones, but would LOVE if they offered a little container of clotted cream and/or jam to go with the scones to help with moisture. Add a cup of tea and you’d have the perfect morning or post-lunch pick-me-up! The oversized cookies are good (sprinkle and chocolate chip), but I love a chewy, gooey chocolate chip cookie, and this one is more on the crunchy chocolate chip cookie spectrum. The rainbow sprinkle one is a lot of fun, but could do with more of a vanilla flavor (or even cream cheese in the batter ! A great little trick for a tasty sugar cookie). I wouldn’t turn these down though if you were offering! The biscotti is crunchy and tasty, and my boss’ dog apparently loved the puppy biscuits they sometimes have for sale. Sadly, the cupcakes have been a repeated disappointment for me. The cake portion is too small, and there is way too much buttercream for the size of the cake, and I love a good buttercream so don’t mind some extra. If the cake portion were a bit taller, the amount of frosting would make more sense. Although Fifth Tier’s buttercream is luxuriously smooth, the flavor of it lacks for me. I’ve ordered cupcakes with Nutella frosting, cream cheese frosting, chocolate, raspberry, and vanilla frosting. The flavor is barely detectable. I understand wanting to stretch a batch of buttercream, but I think the buttercream would be more successful for me if the flavor were dialed up. The cake itself has been moist, it’s just the size of the cake and buttercream flavors that could be tweaked. I’ve also ordered a birthday cake for my husband here. I ordered a carrot cake, which I hadn’t tried in the shop before ordering. They were accommodating to my request for no nuts or raisins, and the decorating (rainbow sprinkles) was simple but neat and cute. Carrot cake is my husband’s favorite, but neither of us much enjoyed their version. It felt too heavy on the warming spices, the taste of nutmeg or mace overwhelmed the palate. Maybe it’s a carrot cake another person would love, but we’ll skip it next time, as we prefer a sweeter, more subtle spice for our carrot cake. It’s truly great to have another bakery downtown, and although not every option has been a hit with me, I continue to try the options to find a winner. Make sure you visit this adorable local bakery — maybe they’ll have your perfect carrot cake or cinnamon bun!

Shepherd Artisan Coffee – Menu with Prices – 919 Collins Ave, Miami Beach

I’m Italian, I love coffee.. I’m a much better person when I have a coffee because I’m absolute shit storm to deal with otherwise and thank the heavens I stumbled upon this place. My partner and I went here one of our first nights in Miami during the afternoon at it was a fucking scorcher of a day. I ordered an iced vanilla latte and he ordered a caramel latte. After feeling pretty jet lagged the coffee was strong just how I like it and made us both feel alive again. It was by far one of the best iced lattes I have had! Nothing beats a super cute Artisan caffe over shitty Starbucks. We went to Shepherd’s several times throughout our vacation. I just wish I could order one of their vanilla lattes when I’m back home! xx

Biggby Coffee – Menu with Prices – 120 W Ottawa St, Lansing

Better than Starbucks in my opinion but still it’s nothing special. I’m not a fan of all the sugary syrup flavored drinks. When I try a new coffee place I usually get an iced latte or a regular coffee. On this occasion I went with an iced latte and it was ok. It did not have that over roasted/burnt Starbucks flavor but it seemed to be lacking any flavor. Next time I’ll try it with an extra shot of espresso.
