Jersey Girl Sweets

"We tried these delicious cookies at a yard sale. After walking to numerous yard sales, we practically ran to the table selling cookies. We tried the free samples first and couldn't resist purchasing a few cookies. I should have purchased more since I ended up returning to the table later for more cookies. We purchased several chocolate mint and iced sugar cookies. The chocolate mint cookies were incredible. Cooked perfectly with an excellent balance of mint and chocolate flavors. The sugar cookies were beautifully decorated and tasted good. They would make a great gift. We also purchased one of the gluten free cookies. We have tried numerous gluten free products before and unfortunately did not like the taste of this one. Plus we didn't even give it to the intended person since the label said it contained gluten (see picture). I think it was just a generic label and "GF" was written on it, but still, we did not want to risk it. Overall, the regular cookies were excellent and we would eat them again!"

Crumbl - Brier Creek

★★★★☆ 4 (69) • $$

"After getting a late dinner, my friend and I wanted some dessert. Crumbled was on the way home. I placed an online order at 10:12pm for the 4-pack. We got 2 milk chocolate, 1 molten lava, and 1 chocolate covered strawberry. The 4 pack was $13.95. We arrived about 2-3 minutes after placing the order and it wasn't ready yet. It was clean inside and not busy at all. The wait for receiving the cookies was short. We both only ate 1 cookie that night and one the next morning. They were soft and DELICIOUS. I will say that the cookies weren't hot or warm. I highly enjoyed the icing on the chocolate covered strawberry cookie. Strawberry is my favorite flavor and it did not disappoint!All in all, the cookies fulfilled our desires. The staff were friendly. No complaints, really, besides the appearance on the icing of my chocolate covered strawberry cookie."

Boulted Bread

"Boulted remains perfect. Returned at 10:07 AM on a Sunday and the line was out the door, but it moved fast and we had everything in hand by 10:23:+ Morning bun+ Ham and cheese croissant+ Rhubarb jam pinwheel + Quiche+ Brownie+ Iced coffee+ Blueberry crumble pie+ Oatmeal cookie+ Chocolate chip cookie + Special loaf (whole wheat levain)Standouts this time were the ham and cheese croissant, rhubarb jam pinwheel, morning bun, brownie, oatmeal cookie and iced coffee (they brew Counter Culture). Quiche and blueberry crumble pie were also fantastic. The bread was good, but I'd try a different kind next time. 5 stars forever."

Crema Coffee & Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (301)

"Looking for a new spot today for a treat and iced coffee. This was a positive stop and enjoyable. My friend ordered a praline latte and I ordered a plain iced coffee. We tried the scone and vanilla cake. The cake is a light sponge filled with incredible vanilla cream. The cake was moist and lovely. The chocolate chip scone was all that and more. We will be back. All delicious."

Lucettegrace

★★★★★ 4.5 (486)

"Came here off a heavy recommendation while downtown Raleigh. Considering it was cold out, coming to a local coffee shop was just what we wanted. You can view to accompanying photos to see the inside, it's really tasteful and the ambiance is calm and chill. We noticed the cleanliness of this establishment is top notch (including the bathrooms). Service was great, just one worker behind the counter but she was able to keep up. She was so friendly and helped us with ordering what we were in the mood for. I got the Lucettegrace HOT coffee which is two espresso shots with steamed condensed milk. This is exactly what I was looking for and one of the best sweet hot coffee drinks I've had. We also got a chai tea latte which was absolutely delicious. Now on top of the bomb drink experience we got a pastry which I forgot the name of however what was awesome was that the girl ended up giving us a free baklava croissant. This was so unexpected but much appreciated. "I'll be back!" - Arnold Schwarzenegger"

Amitie macaron

★★★★★ 4.7 (20)

"On the rare occasion I drive out to Triangle Town Center, the whole mall was a bust but boy was I glad I stumbled upon Amitie Macaron! I just bought 2 macarons to try: matcha and passionfruit. They both blew me away! The shells are smooth and not grainy and stale. The flavors were spot on! They were a bit sweet, but that's just my personal preference. Amitie has so many flavors too and I bet they're all delicious! These are probably the best macarons you can get in the Triangle area, seriously."

Panadería Michoacana de Cary

★★★★☆ 4.1 (29)

"This is your tiny strip-mall bakery which has some of the BEST desserts from Mexico. Their Tres Leches is hands down one of the best ones (also the most authentic) my friend who was born and raised in Mexico also gets her cake here. The flan (they take orders) is authentic, packaged well (think about it for a party, show stopping dessert if you wanted an assortment of desserts). They have cakes on order and decorate them nice. I accidentally walked into their bakery and noticed how cold and well kept the facility was. The regular array of cookies, muffins, pastries tasted and smelled great. My kids, each picked a pastry and loved them both. Prices are reasonable and the parking is ample!"

Chanticleer Cafe & Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (266) • $

"This is a busy happening spot in Cary. I metwith a group to hang out and did not order anything but others did. They seemed to enjoy the pastries and sandwiches they ordered. We sat outside which was wonderful as the inside was packed. Next time I return, I willtry something off the menu.Service seemed to be efficient and people seemed to be enjoying their food and coffee."

Crumbl - Morrisville

★★★★☆ 4.3 (152) • $$

"I'm not sure where to start. I've heard about this place and when I first saw the prices I was quite taken aback. But I was assured these cookies" were not your everyday cookie. First off, the CC changes flavors weekly so there's never room for complacency with flavors. Secondly, let's talk flavors this week: sea salt toffee, peanut butter brittle, molten lava, pecan pie, orange roll and classic pink. These cookies are extra large and loaded with taste and pure goodness. Every bite melts in your mouth. I tried the peanut butter brittle today and have lost my mind. I get it. I'm sold. I will be back. The cookies are pricey but WELL worth it. They also sell ice cream."

Premier Cakes

★★★★★ 4.5 (98) • $$

"What a sweet family. Purchased some cake slices and cupcakes and they were awesome. I will be placing an order for a coconut pineapple cake for myMothers birthday. If it's anything like those cupcakes we had today It will be amazing. Their array of options is mind blowing. They even had candles to make a mini cake for a birthday. Thoroughly enjoyed our stop in today"

Crumbl Cookies - Apex

★★★★☆ 4.3 (7)

"Gave into the hype and tried out the classic chocolate chip cookie. The cookies are more cake-y and dough-y than crunchy. I enjoyed the experience but don't think I would get another one for the price. The store is nicely designed and clean looking and the staff were friendly"

Sherrys Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.2 (57)

"Not being a local, maybe I just don't understand the nostalgia. It's located in the heart of downtown Dunn, NC and with 35 reviews, which seems to be a lot of reviews for any one place in this area. So, they got fans. The decor is dated, but not the dirty kind of dated. There is actually two parts of the business. One is the bakery counter and the other, is the grill. My husband inquired about a bologna sandwich, but he was told the cut is thin and the "Red brand" and that most people don't like it. We appreciated the honesty and stuck with appeasing our sweet tooth.I ordered the chocolate covered, cream filled donut. Honestly, I've had much better. The cream in the middle was minimum and was only in the center of the donut. My husband insisted that his donut didn't taste fresh. Maybe we each ordered the wrong thing, so I won't ding them too much. Just not a place that I'd go out of my way or walk two miles to get to again."

La Farm Bakery

★★★★☆ 3.9 (69) • $$

"La Farm Bakery is a true Raleigh gem.I visit each time I go for coffee and a few treats for breakfast. The sourdough pretzels are really good and the white chocolate mini baguettes are to die for.I visit the Cary location at breakfast and then grab some treats at the airport on the way home. You can order online ahead of time which is a nice option as they are sold out of many items when I get there around 8:45 in the morning. Everything seems to be baked fresh likely daily so a real treat."

Carter's Baking Company

★★★★★ 4.6 (37)

"Excellent experiences, was so good one week (iced brownie) we stopped the following week. Where we got a cheesecake (wife), a chocolate chip cookie (son) and a cupcake(me). Everything was great and my son says it was one of the best cookies he has ever had. I have to go to Wendell this Friday and I can assure you I will be stoping by and bringing dessert home."

Crumbl - Parkside

★☆☆☆☆ 1 (1)

"DO NOT buy from this crumbl. I was in the area and ordered a 4 pack of cookies online. I arrive at my allotted pickup time and there's a note on the door saying they're closed for an hour and the door is locked. The employee inside avoided eye contact. I come back after waiting for an hour and the store is closed fully and the note is taken down. They took my online order and my money and I didn't receive an email. Terrible service, rude customers, will never order from here again and will tell all my friends to never order here as well."

Whisk and Rye Bakehouse

★★★★☆ 4.4 (42) • $$

"TLDR: Great place for a coffee and large croissant.If you are craving an extra large croissant this is the place to go. I stopped here for caffeine and a snack while in Durham. They are located in a small plaza with ample parking right out front. Baked goods are displayed at the front counter. Order and pick-up is on the left side of the counter. After ordering, I received the croissants right away and the earl grey tea a few minutes later. Since it was warm out, I ordered a hot tea with a side of ice. I was informed that the tea was only steeped for about a minute. After leaving, I continued to let it steep. Even after steeping, the tea was very weak and cool (I didn't even need the ice). I think the water was not hot enough to properly steep. The croissants were delicious. Very flaky and satisfying. The chocolate croissant had a good balance of pastry to filling ratio. Overall good experience, I would not recommend the tea, but I do recommend the croissants!"

Sweet Traditions By Leane

★★★★★ 4.5 (92) • $

"Sweet Traditions has been operating normally since my last review and you've been able to go back inside to select your goodies now. This is both good and bad as you might leave with more treats than you planned on. The menu has changed a little too and that they sell cookies and brownies now. I finally made it on a Saturday for the cinnamon rolls but left with gingerbread cookies and macaroons too. Sweet Traditions takes holiday orders for items not typically available in the store as you can get casseroles and more detailed treats.If you are looking for something yummy to eat, make a stop here."

Cake Town Bakery

★★★★★ 4.8 (25)

"2/8/23: I went to the laundromat the day before and noticed this cute little bakery. Unfortunately, they were closed, so I made it a point to go today. Y'all know I LOVE cake, so I was excited to see their open sign lit up. We went a little before closing, which I'm sad about. I will be sure to go earlier next time. We were immediately greeted by the owner's dad. He was so bubbly and friendly. I loved him!We ended up getting a mocha chocolate cake square and some chocolate chip cookies. Now, being that I get cake all the time, the only thing that I didn't care for was the icing. It wasn't the thick, sweet buttercream icing that I'm used to. It was more like whipped, and I don't like whipped anything! Outside of that, the flavor of the cake was good and it was SO MOIST. I scraped the icing off and just at the cake. The cookies were good too. I could taste the butter - YUM! We are definitely going to go back to their brunch and special events. I can't wait to see what other yummy goodies I can get my hands on. :)Go check them out. You won't be disappointed."

Bread of Heaven Restaurant and Bakery

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (10)

"If you are looking for food that is delicately seasoned without meat, this is your spot! One of the buffet servers has vegetables prepared without meat seasonings and it is a vegan dream come true. There are several choices but you will only need a few because it will fill you up fast! Take your time and savor the flavors. The meats and other food were good as well. It's worth a trip so you can make your own decision. Don't forget the bakery items! They are delicious as well. Since you'll be too full, get it to go!"

Sugar Grinders

★★★★☆ 4.4 (5)

"We are all entitled to our own opinions, right? Well here's mine:Parking: 4Location: 3Decor/ambiance: 3Customer Service: 5+I was on my way out of Triangle and stumbled up Sugar Grinders. Three nice ladies happened to be working the counter putting sweet treats away as they were closing. I managed to get my foot in the door right as they were closing. Sugar Grinders (SG) is located in Triangle Town Center Mall on the second floor in front of SAKS! The offer some great tasting sweets. These sweet range from cookies to cakes slices. They even have drinks and cupcakes. I grabbed a marble pound cake slice with sweet vanilla icing and 3 cookies. Everything was really good. The cookies were sweet... so sweet it took me about 2 days to eat them but they were yummy! The pound cake was good as the icing was my favorite part. I plant to come check SG out again soon... this time i'm looking to grab a cupcake!"

La Farm Bakery - Fuquay Varina

★★★★☆ 3.9 (22)

"Okay I'll admit I was probably a bit too excited to find out about La Farm's Fuquay location. I drove here the first day I found out and was surprised at all the new items they have. Yes they regularly have new or seasonal baked goods, but now they sell take and bake options too. Impress your guests with freshly baked scones, quiche, or cookies! In addition to baked goods they do have sandwiches, chicken salad, coffee, tea (from Asheville Tea Company), merchandise, etc. the employees here are efficient, communicate well, and are friendly. I've been a fan of La Farm for a while now and continue to recommend it to others. The quality and flavor of their breads and pastries is excellent. Since they are fresh and lack preservatives, be sure to put any bread you don't eat within a day or two into the freezer to maintain its quality. We definitely recommend this location to others, the croissants, bread, and scones are our favorites!"

Guglhupf Bake Shop

★★★★☆ 4.3 (67) • $$

"Popped into Guglhupf Bake Shop after searching madly for a cool lounge/ beer garden. We got mixed up with the locations and didn't realize that the other location was the beer garden. The glass case was nearly empty by the time of our visit. I got the Cinnamon Schnecke. It was a tasty afternoon trip and satisfied my sweet tooth. It's full of cinnamon and a good size/portion. I hope to try the beer garden the next time I visit the area. I would definitely come back to this location but would like to return earlier in the day to see what the full glass case has in it.

Bull City Bake Shop

★★★★★ 4.7 (26)

"Stopped in while waiting for T-Mobile next door and everyone was really friendly. We were there pretty late in the day so the selection wasn't robust but everything looked great. Settled on a cannoli filling cupcake, a hunk of Black Wall Street cake (which is 1) a cool homage to Durham's past and 2) literally a hunk of cake -- it's huge) and a walnut brownie. Didn't try the brownie (but was assured it was delicious) but loved the cupcake and the cake. The cupcake was really moist and I loved the more than ample dollop of frosting on top. The cake was equally moist but really sweet -- it had a layer of raspberry jam that was definitely needed (and made it taste perfect). I'm not on that side of town often but will definitely be back whenever I'm close and in the need of a delicious sweet."

Monuts

★★★★☆ 4.1 (582)

"Amazing donuts -- crispy on the outside, fluffy and tasty on the inside, and always some new interesting flavor. We like the cinnamon buns too! And when you get a dozen donuts (or pastries and donuts combined), there is a discount.This time round we had apple cider donuts (standard and good), cranberry earl-grey donuts (one of the day's specials), and ginger hibiscus donut (another special). They were all good!We also had raspberry jam scones - delightful texture on the outside, full of jam on the inside - good, but very sweet, and not really a scone. More of a jam tart.And of course, we got a couple of the cinnamon buns -- they have a lot of sugar on them, but they're delicious.But what makes Monuts exceptional is really the donuts - both the unusual flavors (which are always changing) and the texture (crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside). It's clear that they really work hard at this, and the results are exceptional. I think they open at 7:00 am, and often there's a line at that hour. Come by at midday, and they may be out of almost everything. You'll see in the pictures I posted that it's dark out (as in not yet light) -- we got there early to get a good selection."

Jerusalem Bakery & Grocery

★★★★★ 4.7 (46)

"What a great little store! I just popped in to get some Za'atar, but the bakery goodies looked amazing. The shelves are packed with spices, grains and canned goods. They have so much in such a small space, I couldn't find what I needed, but they easily found it for me. Friendly service and reasonable prices!"

Southern Sugar Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.4 (23)

"This is a little late of a response, but we hired Southern Sugar Bakery to make decorative cookies for our Gender Reveal. We found them on Google, and we got on the phone to make all the arrangements. Their customer service throughout the entire process, from initial contact to receiving the cookies, was top-notch. The bakery is obviously located in NC, and we live in NJ. So, they shipped the cookies to us in very secure packages, with bubble wrap and additional padding. They also shipped packages to California and Nashville. Four dozen cookies, four separate destinations, and not a single cookie was damaged!!The end result was the most beautiful cookies we've ever seen! And, then we ate some, and we couldn't stop. They're delicious! I highly, HIGHLY, recommend Southern Sugar Bakery for local and interstate business!"

Deja Brew Coffee House

★★★★☆ 4 (143) • $

"I really enjoyed my experience there. I learned that I need to ask for extra hot when it's super cold. I did not try a signature drink but I was glad they had the option to get my cravings under control. I can not wait to go again."

Shelley's Mom's Bakery

★★★★★ 4.5 (25) • $

"Yum delicious bakery in Angier off 210. While driving down 210 I was looking for a place to eat and saw the bakery sign. I pulled in to a nearly empty parking lot. The open sign was lit up so I walked in and decided on which pastries I wanted. Similar to other local panaderias, you use the tongs and tray to select desired baked goods. I chose some pastry hearts (elephant ears) and concha. They also sell ice cream, cake slices, custom cakes, and more. As I was finishing up, a friendly employee came out to greet me and ask if I needed anything. I requested one of their recently decorated "brownies." He packaged it nicely to not disrupt the frosting. I don't know exactly what it was but I thought it was a brownie. The concha and pastry hearts tasted delicious and as expected. It was pricier than I anticipated (total was around $10). Still cheaper than other nearby bakeries, but more expensive than other panaderias in the Triangle area. Overall I'm glad I stopped by and recommend this bakery to others. Seems like it is a local favorite as they were out of several things by 11 am (they open at 7 am)."

Paris Banh Mi - Cary

★★★★☆ 3.6 (29)

"I came during their soft opening as I haven't found a single Banh mi place in the Triangle I even remotely like. Hands down, this is the best banh mi place we have in the area so far! No question about it. However that doesn't mean it is the best I've had. If they changed just a few things then I think it would go from good to great. The pros here are that they bake their own bread! The bread is so important and if all the places I've tried in the Triangle their bread is the best. The overall flavors are delicious but definitely lacking components that would make it stand out. They offer pate however it is not in every sandwich option and is a $1 charge if you choose to add it on. Also there just wasn't that much of it. I didn't really notice it in my sandwich. The mayo could have been more rich and again there could have been more of it. Lastly there definitely wasn't enough garnish (cilantro or pickled veggies). I will try asking for more next time. Overall it will hit your banh mi craving, but I really hope the owners consider these areas for improvement!"

Burneys Sweets & More

★★★★☆ 4.4 (49)

"I wasn't expecting much since I have not had a glazed croissant before, but oh my goodness they are too good. They look like shiny croissants, but are oh so tender and mouthwatering. The glaze is applied evenly so each bite creates the same delicious experience. A patient brought them to the clinic for us. I only ate one, but I wanted to keeping eating them. I liked how they were not overly sweet and they weren't greasy. I definitely recommend this establishment to others and would stop here if I was in Smithfield. I highly recommend trying the glazed croissant, yum!"

Crumbl - Six Forks Station

★★★★☆ 4.2 (38)

"Love their cookies, especially the oatmeal and anything with the oatmeal base. Their chocolate chip is also very good! Customer service has been good. Good service! Store is clean and looks like the rest."
