    I can't stop eating their homemade chipwiches: ginger snap, snicker doodle, classic chocolate chunk, with amazing assorted homemade ice cream. My favorite is their classic with mint ice cream.

    One bite of the devil's food cupcake won me over. Amazing cakes - but if you are lucky enough to try chipwhich (made with homemade ice cream) - you will develop a serious crush on Bakeshop.

    I ordered a celebration cake for my friend's birthday and it turned out to be awesome. It was well carved as shown in the picture and the taste was really yummy and very fresh. Everyone loved it!!!

    The coffee is very good. It has a nice chocolatey taste that pairs well with dessert. The Oreo in a blanket is delicious!

    Ice cream sandwiches are to die for. Coffee is good too, although the staff seem perpetually inexperienced and flustered.

    Chipwich is not freshly made but already packaged in a freezer box, which is surprising. Still very good though! Chocolate chip cookie was excellent

    Great vegan cupcakes, the pumpkin is really good and has a hint of apple. The vegan cookies are good too, try the apricot.

    First time here, the Orange Creamcicle Cupcake was pretty good. Good price (2.50) cheaper than "Red Velvet" &"Crumbs" which are a few blocks away. The later's being colossal and over frosted.

    The croissants are amazing and better than Pastries by Randolph and other "higher end" bakeries and patisseries.

    Taro root macaroon, chipwich, and the ginger cream pie were very tasty, but the cupcakes were very forgettable. The frosting had no flavor. Oreo blanket was also just ok.

    Justin, the confectionery architect uses fresh whipped butter for the frosting, and not lard or heavy cream cheese. Perfect sized cupcakes.
