Janay D. "Hey Travoodies Let me say the say the atmosphere definitely local, friendly and yum. I just hate I couldn't sit to enjoy it. If you didn't see the reel, broken glass and my finger had a tussle. This neighborhood restaurant and bakery bustled with smiling faces from staff to patrons. What I ordered: The Biscuit Sammie! A cheddar buttermilk thyme biscuits with a maple fennel sausage layered with delicious was everything. My only disappointment was that with the situation occurring I was not able to eat it hot. I believe it would have been chefs kiss. So I have to do a redo... I also ordered a cinnamon roll, which I later enjoyed. It was a lot bread but yummy all the same. I would share it next time because it was alot for me! Overall it is a place I want to try again."

Kim N. "I ordered a cake for a baby shower. I had no idea what I wanted. They helped me come up with the perfect idea to go with my color theme. I could not have been more pleased. They also made a mini cake exactly like it for my mother-in-law who could not attend. The cake was not only gorgeous, it also tasted amazing.Thank you so much for making my event extra special."

K D. "Tried this place because of a Groupon I bought. Always a bit skeptical about reviews claimimg the "best frosting ever" as I have been looking for that in the Cities but have yet to find. Well, I can say they absolutely DO HAVE THE BEST FROSTING ever!!! Light and fluffy, not overly sweet. Almost more like a french cream-type frosting. I ordered some asst brownies and got a few flavored cupcakes as well. This is defintely my go-to spot for all cupcakes,cakes & desserts in the future!"

Tim D. "Mixin' It Up is a gluten-free bakery located in Sauk Rapids. Their products are all locally made and are quite tasty. I am not on a gluten-free diet, but wanted to try some of their products. I'm glad I did. You can find cookies, cupcakes, and other sweet items here. If you or someone you love is gluten-free, this is a great place to find baked goods that they can consume."

Perry S. "This is not your typical Mexican bakery. There are no pastries here. Pasteleria Gama makes cakes. And only cakes. "Pasteleria" means "cake shop" in Spanish.Entering the small shop one comes face-to-face with a huge display case filled with a variety of cakes in a rainbow of intense colors. A feast for the eyes (there is nothing subtle about the Mexican color palette).We pre-ordered a tres leches cake for a birthday celebration. The cake was ready when we arrived at the appointed time. While the counter person showed me the cake before packaging it, my eye kept wandering to the cake decorator in the rear of the shop. He was definately in his element, a "performance artist" carefully applying a layer of white frosting to a tall cake that slowly spun on a lazy susan. Had I not been in a hurry I would have stayed to watch him complete his work.Our 8" tres leches cake, which easily serves 12-15 people, was pricey at $30, but it was fabulous. Moist, but not soakingly wet. Flavorful frosting that was not too sweet. If you're in the mood for a very special cake for a special occassion, or just 'cause, give Paseleria Gama a try."
