I have been following Dulce Artisanal Pastry for years now on social media but had yet to venture inside. Either I didn't have time before, wasn't in the area, or was telling myself I didn't need to eat pastries there was always an excuse I made. Finally, it was the perfect time, a beautiful day, and we were right around the corner. I have had my eyes on their artisanal pop tarts for years, so that was what I was most interested in seeking. We first browsed the window and I saw the pop tarts , along with chocolate croissants. We entered the bakery and were greeted by an employee at the register. I asked about the pop tart flavor and tried to get my bearings, as everything is unique. You know when you go somewhere and feel like they expect you to know exactly what you want? Kind of like Starbucks, where you should be prepared with your order and go quickly? That's the vibe here, even without a single other person in the bakery. I glanced quickly at the case and ordered the almond plum pop tart and a chocolate croissant. My husband ordered the caramel pecan blondie. He tried making a joke with the employee, but it didn't land. Trust me, I get it, he's not that funny, but it felt as if they're annoyed. No smiles. No warmth. Just strictly business, which is odd for a bakery selling such lovely pastries. We didn't eat our pastries until the next morning, so it's our fault they didn't taste fresh, but they didn't wow us. I was hoping there was a reason for the pretentious vibes and they would blow me away with their delicious, one of a kind creations. Sadly, no. I wanted to love my experience so badly after being a social media fan for so long, but it wasn't meant to be. I also RARELY give low reviews, so understand I am NOT a complainer by any stretch. I love everything and give everyone a fair chance. If I'm in the area again I will come back and see if maybe it was just an off day for the staff. If so, I will update my review for sure.
