I ordered pies and 2 large cookie trays for a holiday event. The pies were very good. The cookies - from a store specializing as a bakery named The Cookie Jar - HUGE disappointment. HUGE. Hard as rocks; only way they were edible was to dunk them, or cover entire platter in bread + put lid on overnight. I could have bought cookies at any of the local grocery store bakeries cheaper and had the same or better quality. Next year I will plan in advance and make my own. NEVER again smh. HUGE waste of money.

Pastries, donuts & pies are fresh daily and made from scratch. The icings (chocolate, caramel, peanut butter) are classics!! Chocolate eclairs are a family favorite and unparalleled compared to anywhere we've tried them. Butter rolls, breads and Kaiser rolls are all flavorful and always fresh. The recipes have been handed down for generations, and it shows. Our family has been enjoying these amazing treats for decades. Long live Cookie Jar!!

I had previously purchased a king cake here, which was excellent. I placed an order for a half a sheet cake for a graduation party. I went in 2 weeks in advance with a picture of the cake I wanted. A simple design of stars, a grad cap, and the words Congratulations and Name, which is obviously nothing too difficult. I drive by here every day in the morning at the same time, and the lights are always on. I told them I would be picking the cake up at 7:30, and was surprised that unlike previous mornings the lights were off up front. Even after going in, and 2 other customers coming in the lights remained off. The lady flashed me the cake quickly, and then taped up the box. When I got home I was appalled at the quality of this cake. I’m sure she realized what poor quality this was, hence the lights off and hurried pace. IT WAS HORRIBLE! Everything. Not one good thing could be said about anything on the cake. First the cake wasn’t even cut down to even it out. They iced it with the left side being significantly higher than the right. The writing, stars, and lines were horrendous. The stars were poorly drawn, and were all cracked in the filling. The lines were not straight, and the icing pipe was repeatedly broken up as if someone had stopped and started the lines multiple times. Then the graduation cap drawn on was absolutely the worst. It is misshapen, crooked, and the icing was again all broken up. It is a wonder this place has even stayed in business. This quality of cake I would expect from a tenth grade tech student, not a professional bakery. I honestly don’t think the cake could have come out any worse. If you pay for a professional cake, then it should LOOK like a bakery made it. DO NOT BUY CAKES HERE!

love the atmosphere when your in the store, it always smells so good in there. my son and i go in once a week and get fresh donuts and chocolate milk he loves going and says the donuts are his favorites.
