One of our favorite things about Pride is all the lovely colors. ๐Ÿ˜ And because Pride isn't only for those of us who can eat gluten, we've got rainbows - two ways. ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ

Stop in today and all month long for your favorite Rainbow Flag Cookies, made of delicate gluten free almond sponge cake, apricot jam and a thin coating of dark chocolate. ๐Ÿคค๐Ÿ˜‹

For a more traditional and glutenous cookie, try our Funfetti Cookies, an almond-flavored cookie bursting with equal parts buttery goodness and glorious rainbow sprinkles.

You'll find these and all our usual tasty stuff at 76 East Mill Street in downtown Akron today till 3pm and all weekend 9am-3pm. Give us a call at 234-706-6088 with questions or to order ahead.

So we've seen some restaurants and cafes using AI for their marketing, and the results have been... Interesting. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

With the state and federal government gaslighting everyone on a daily basis, the last thing you need is feeling like even your food is a lie. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ I can promise you that the food images we post are not only actual items that we just made - from scratch and by hand, mind you - but most of the time (with a few exceptions), it's a photo of something we just made that day, that is literally in our case.

Like this croissant. This very croissant was baked this morning, and unless it's already sold, you'll find this exact croissant in our case. ๐Ÿฅ In fact those photos of our case are as of 30 minutes ago, and those BBQ Chicken Handpies were made this morning, using BBQ Sauce we make in house from scratch from our own recipe.

I can also promise you that nothing on our website or social media is written by ChatGPT or any other such program. It's me - Mary - typing these words, one by one.

In a world that seems so uncertain, it might not seem like a big deal that your local bakery is committed to presenting an honest product in an honest way, but we think it is. It's tied to the water we drink, the air we breathe, the land we walk on. We are all part of this bigger picture and we think you're worth the consideration.

So come buy this croissant (maybe get it as a BLT? Your call) or any of our other fresh baked, from-scratch items at 76 East Mill Street in downtown Akron, today till 3pm and every Wednesday-Sunday 9am-3pm. See you soon! ๐Ÿ˜˜

It's Memorial Day Weekend, and we're open our usual hours (9am-3pm) so you can treat yourself to a little something. We are closed tomorrow for the holiday, so be sure to stop in today to stock up!

Our Cherry Crumblebuns have made their debut, and though they're not as flashy as the Ube, our staff is pretty excited about their return, it's one of their favorites. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ’

We have all the standard fare; bagels, biscuits (and gravy!), even Roasted Red Pepper & Smoked Gouda Soup, Savory Stuffed Croissants, scones, cookies (including some fun frosted sugar cookies ๐Ÿ˜‰) and the chocolate croissants were VERY happy today so they are ginormous. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Our soft and fluffy Banana Sheet Cake has been popular, so that'll be around for a while, and we've got Coconut Cream Pie, whole or by the slice!

Cruffins are in the case, as are cheesecakes, macarons, quiche, and even that GF Strawberry Angel Food Cake, whole or by the slice. ๐Ÿคฏ We can make egg and cheese sandwiches all day, until we've sold out of course, and if you want chicken salad or egg salad, we've got that fresh as well. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฅฏ๐Ÿฅช๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿฒ๐Ÿช๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿฅง

We've got alllll the good stuff, fresh baked and made from scratch, but you have to head down to 76 East Mill Street in downtown Akron today till 3pm! And there's no event at the Knight Center, so there's plenty of Free parking right out front. ๐Ÿ˜€

Stop in today and tomorrow to bid farewell to our Coconut Ube Buns, and our Strawberry Crullers!

Though the deceptive weather the last few days may have led you to believe that summer was here, we must remember that we are in Ohio and this state likes to f*ck with us. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

So of course, today the weather is back to drizzle and gloom, my personal favorite. ๐ŸŒง๏ธโ˜” However, to give us all happy thoughts of sunshine and frolicking along the beach, we've brought back our Buttered Pineapple Scones, sweet and fruity, like a little sunshine for your mouth. ๐Ÿ‘„๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ

And if you're feeling sconey, it's the last day for our Strawberry Coconut Scones ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿฅฅ, which are so soft and tasty, and Sophie says they taste like Strawberry Shortcake. Come snag one! ๐Ÿ’•

We have all the other usual suspects, cookies, fresh and fluffy bagels, Almond Croissants, BBQ Chicken Handpies, Savory stuffed croissants, biscuits and gravy, macarons, quiche, cheesecake, and so much more! Plus if you're looking for a fresh plain or chocolate croissant, those will be ready in less than 10 minutes. ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿฅ

We've got all the good stuff, but you've got to head to 76 East Mill Street in downtown Akron today till 3pm! Call 234-706-6088 with questions or to order ahead. ๐Ÿฐ

Sarah made these absolutely *gorgeous* sandwich buns this morning, so showing you was a necessity. ๐Ÿ˜ Plus our Curried Egg Salad and our Classic Chicken Salad are made fresh from scratch in house, so paired with a little lettuce and thick sliced tomato, these just might be the freshest sandwiches in town.

Our fruit Danish are looking pretty fresh, with blueberry crumble, strawberry, or tart cherry rounding out your options for today. Strawberry Coconut scones are on their swan song, so get one while you can!

Be sure to grab a slice of our banana cake, with cream cheese frosting and a caramel drizzle. Frosted Sugar cookies, GF Strawberry Angel Food Cake, and almond croissants are all waiting for you. Cruffins are in the case, in THREE flavors: Vanilla custard, Nutella, or Lemon Cream. ๐Ÿ˜‹

There's no event at the convention center across the street and the rain is keeping the line down, so head to 76 East Mill Street in downtown Akron today till 3pm for a little treat! Call 234-706-6088 with questions or to order ahead.

As someone who isn't exactly a "soup person", I've always been surprised when customers want soup no matter the weather. For me, soup has always been for cases of frigid weather or nursing someone back to health.

But since many of our customers do indeed seem to be soup people, and since it's completely possible to understand what others appreciate about something even if it isn't your go-to choice ๐Ÿ˜, I use our soup as a personal challenge to make a soup that even non-"soup people" would want a bowl of. Our Creamy Chicken and Mushroom is that soup. ๐Ÿ„โ€๐ŸŸซ๐Ÿ„โ€๐ŸŸซ๐Ÿ„โ€๐ŸŸซ ๐Ÿคค๐Ÿ˜‹

We've made this once before, but the recipe was mostly my notes scrawled on the back of a piece of notebook paper. So I reworked it a bit, typed it up and we've made it again, this time with a real recipe that we can actually make again! It's GF as always, but with big chunks of chicken and a creamy, buttery base, it's neither vegetarian nor dairy free. Chock-full of mushrooms, carrots, celery, potatoes and chicken, it's warm and filling, and while it's certain to immediately cure any illness (not really - that's a joke just so we're clear), you may need to have several bowls of it for good measure.

We'll have it all weekend, along with a wide variety of pastries, cookies and more. Head to 76 East Mill Street in downtown Akron today till 3pm and all weekend 9am-3pm. Call 234-706-6088 with questions or to order ahead. ๐Ÿฒ

BANANA CAKE IS BACK!! ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŒ Soft and fluffy, frosted with cream cheese buttercream and a caramel drizzle, it reminds me of childhood and summery days running around barefoot. ๐Ÿ’•

We also have Fig & Honey Cheese Danish, with of course, plus strawberry cheese danish, big soft and chewy bagels, and our buttery buns are freshly buttered and ready for your chicken salad and egg salad sandwiches. ๐Ÿฅช

A few items are on their way out, so enjoy them while we've got em: our strawberry crullers are being replaced with their more summery cousin, Passion Fruit, and the Coconut Ube Buns won't be here much longer with Cherry Crumblebuns chomping at the bit (that does sound like a good racehorse name). ๐ŸŽ

Cruffins just came out of the oven and we'll have those ready for you by 10am! Croissants are in the oven now and will also be ready around 10. But cheesecake, quiche, cookies, scones, cinnamon rolls and more await you at 76 East Mill Street in downtown Akron today till 3pm! Call 234-706-6088 with questions or to order ahead. ๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿฐ
