This once small cafe and coffee shop transformed into the bakery it is now because the people were coming for the cake. The people want the cake! The southern fare of the place along with the colorful walls and mismatched furniture brings the expanded place life. The sweet potato cake is a fan favorite, the sweet potato mix is so secret that no one is in the building when it is made from scratch. Come try the cake that put the business on the map.
