A great place that is easy to eat vegan and gluten free. I'll definitely go back next time I'm in the area.

Lovely server, she was just the sweetest. Food was great! Even had gluten free options for my kiddo. We are vacationing in the area, but we'd definitely come back in the future!

I ordered two cakes for a loved one's birthday gathering. The cakes were beautiful and delicious! They were absolutley the decadent treat I had hoped for. My experience with ordering and picking up was great. Very friendly and accommodating service. The only reason I docked a star is because the cakes were given to me in incorrectly sized boxes. The boxes were too large from side to side, so the cakes slid around. And the boxes were barely half as tall as the cakes, so the lids were open on an angle and had plastic wrap covering the space between the open lid and the base of the box. This also meant that the lids were not secured at all, so they smudged the tops of the cakes. The cakes still looked mostly presentable and they were no less delicious, but for the amount of money I spent on these cakes I feel they should have been packaged properly. Even still, I plan to use Cotton Leigh Bakery for future occasions. They said they can prepare gluten-free items as well, and I hope the GF desserts are just as tasty as the regular ones.
