Wuollet Bakery - Reservar uma mesa

I lived in the Twin Cities for 14 years. In that time I discovered the best bakery with the most amazing white cake with butter cream frosting, Wuollet! For years I held their cake up as the gold standard of all cakes of this type. I would buy it and take it with me out of state and even had my friend send it to me in the mail after I moved. Usually most of the cake survived the journey in tact but even if it got jostled too much and half of it was a pile of rubble, I didn 't care because the taste was magnificent and most of the ornate and beautiful roses and flowers survived the trip.Now, forget about buying this cake! I don 't have enough words to describe how disappointing even looking at it is. I should have know the moment the cake was picked up. What was once a beautifully decorated masterpiece looked like a grade schooler 's art project. Seriously, I felt like I entered the Twilight Zone when I saw it. I specifically ordered a cake decorated like usual and like the one shown on the website. What I got was quite different. The flowers were dark purple and dark blue and orange and red and looked like someone rolled out playdough and then placed on top of the cake with cheesy hard sprinkles throughout. When I tasted the cake I knew immediately something was wrong. The icing was not the usual delectable butter cream taste that I was used to There may still be some butter cream in the mix but it also tasted like Crisco or some type of shortening was added. The consistency of the cake itself is also off. It 's also not as dense as it used to be. The end result is an overpriced, horribly decorated cake that tastes average at best. I gave a piece to my mom who also loves the cake as much as I do and she had similar thoughts as mine. Meh... I can get a better looking and better tasting cake at my local grocery store. My advise is to save yourself the disappointment and money and shop elsewhere.When I called the bakery the CSR was very kind and lovely and took good care of me with a refund. She told me that my phone order made no mention of the how I wanted the cake decorated (by the way I mentioned that twice to the person taking my order). As for the taste, well, who would have ever guessed that the new owners would have changed the recipe!If you are a fan of their cakes from yesteryear, look for a new bakery. I can 't speak to the retail coffee and pastry end of things or other bakery items, but as far as my prized white cake with butter cream frosting goes, it is an epic failure

My husband purchased a chocolate birthday cake from here. I love chocolate cake, but this cake was plain bad. It had two of the densest, most flavorless ‘chocolate’ layers I’ve ever had, separated by a layer of putty-like chocolate icing, topped with more grainy, putty-like icing. The chocolate flavor was nonexistent and the cake itself was so dense and heavy, it was like eating a rubber eraser. For $60, the cake was an expensive mistake.

DELICIOUS donuts! We went at 4pm in a Tuesday and to our surprise they still had a few options! They have cookies, cupcakes, donuts, and various other pastries as well as cakes custom too! I went with a maple raised and boy did I make the right choice! So so soft and fluffy and the maple frosting was perfection! They also offer coffee and tea, next time I'm in I'll have to come earlier in the morning and try it out!

I wanted so much that this place is good as it has been for decades. My Bavarian cream donut was a little hard and doughy. The chocolate frozen was slightly fried and the filling was thick and tasteless. The coffee could have been good, but it tasted watered, and they had no half or half or dark chocolate for a Mocha Breve. Disappointed.
