Confections Bakery & Cafe

This location is very convenient. Great breads and coffee. Service is always very nice. Interior decorations and ambience is a step up from other local Korean bakeries. Everything seems perfect..... except two things. 1. Despite having great coffee, their coffee cream is the artificial small plastic capsules!! It's like putting in regular gas in to a Mercedes! Need half and half in a bottle available please. 2. Also, the plastic spoons and forks are pathetic. You want to eat the very pretty and elegant pastries but the flimsy black plastic fork and spoon is just so pitiful Otherwise, it's a great place.

-Parking here is always available but it's so busy. - The bakery is busy at 3pm on a Saturday. So busy that there weren't much of an option for me to pick. I have had their carrots cake and it's the best carrot cake I have ever had. So I wasn't surprised when she told me it was sold out. I ended up with a strawberry cake instead. I need had a chance to try it but it looks so cute. - Inside is ready clean. The space is big and bright. It was a little loud from the crowd so it'll be a fun place to hang with your friend's group.I will have to come back for more feedback because to be honest I was intimidated by the crowd so I just went in and out.4 stars is because there were not many options so if I come back maybe I'll leave an update!

Good environment, good service, good music. Nice place to study or chit chat.抹茶蛋糕3.5/5：里面特别甜得有点难受，抹茶味道很浓，总体还行马卡龙1/5: 巨巨巨甜，而且不酥脆，散散的，受不了Nina Rose Tea 4/5: 看在名字和我一样的份上买的，普通的玫瑰茶没有亮点也不难喝。

Parking can be a difficult because it's a pretty busy plaza in general even with a bunch of spaces but it's probably much better on weekdays during more "off hours". The space is bigger than I thought it would be, gives off a European feel with the type of tables and chairs they have set up. I've only been on weekends and it's always been super busy with people. I think most Korean/asian type bakeries have increased prices for their goods now. Also, not sure when the best time to go is because it's a hit or miss for what they have out and available. I'm assuming first thing in the morning is best? I've been in during earlier afternoons and have been disappointed that not everything was there. What really drew me here was that they have salt bread! Had it in Korea and fell in love. Such a simple thing, but there's something about it that makes me want to keep eating it. Also tried their Oreo croissant, the filling was DELICIOUS. The croissant was a big soggy but still good. Would recommend both!

Probably my new favorite bakery in this area. They have a huge selection of bread and pastries, and plenty of seating and good ambience. I love their croissants and they have unique pastries that I can't find anywhere else

Food: out of the baked goods I got, the desserts are alright. Fruit tart is good, but not the best in the area. The whip cream is nice, but I wished the fruit tart had custard. Apple pie is good; not too sweet. The mochi donut got me surprised LOL. I was expecting it to be donut made of mochi flour. Instead it was a donut stuffed with mochi; which is not my preference. Mojito ade was bubbly and nice. Service: standard. Counter girl was patient with our indecisive butts lmao. Ambiance: BOOOTIFUL. Literally the most aesthetic cafe around. I feel like a bougie king even tho I'm broke af w student loans and my windows laptop studying. I did found the empty shelves weird tho and was expecting more goods inside

I love this place but there is a hair in my cake WtffffffffLiterally a long hair coming out from the cookie part of the fruit tart

All the cakes are beautiful. I bought a 6" strawberry fresh cream cake. It was around $40 (including tax). It came with a "Happy Birthday" sign and candles. They don't do lettering on the cake. The cake was in a cute box and was heavier than other cakes I had bought in the past. A lot of cream and strawberries inside the cake. The cake itself was light and airy. Sweeter than the cakes from Sweet Hut and White Windmill. It was for 6 people and we still had some leftovers. Overall, friendly customer service and delicious cakes 10/10. Will be back... I have 3 more birthdays this month .

I heard so much about this bakery. Of course we had to try! So we went to the second location which was opened about a month ago. Clean and very nice cute cafe! Coffee is good. And baked goods look delicious. But I guess they are all so busy and no one cares to clean the tables. They keep bringing fresh stuffs. Constant customers flowing Unfortunately I think this place is overrated. Decor is so beautiful and displays are great. I bought mushroom cheese baguette. Took a bite. Bread was very chewy and cold. Not good. Too greasy. I asked if they could heat up the bread. And answer was no because they do not have oven here. Then they replaced with a new one that's fine. Fruit flies were flying around and I found a hair sticking out of egg salad. I tried and not so impressed.

Great bakery addition to the Duluth area. This is located within the Satellite Shops I shopping center (next to Captain Loui). They just opened on Dec 01. Although it was busy during the opening weekend, they consistently restocked their pastries.The ambiance is modern chic with high ceilings. There is plenty of seating.The French-Korean inspired pastries were delicious-- "not too sweet". The fresh cream in their pastries is SO good. There is a wide selection of both savory and sweet pastries/sandwiches. Their cakes look so pretty as well. Can't wait to try more of their stuff!
