The passionfruit tart was so well executed it was perfect, but the kouign amann stole the show. So tasty. Quality was high and every single thing behind the counter looked great. Will be back.

Good bread and nice selection of desserts . Definitely try the Basque cake . Boyfriend said it tastes like home made pound cake (doesn't sound like a compliment but then he couldn't stop munching!)

Sandra Holl 's macarons are perfectly at home in Floriole's elegant pastry case alongside seasonal baked treats . They're light, airy, and full of delicate flavor, leagues beyond usual sugary versions.

If you love key lime pie , try the passionfruit tart ! It's tart and delicious. The quiche is pretty incredible too. I'm glad I don't live nearby ;)

Featured on Unique Sweets. The Lemon Meyer Blueberry Galette looks good so does the Cherry Balsamic Brownie . I think the latter is more dairy free than the former.

You literally can't go wrong here. Try to special quiche , any sandwich , baked goods , and coffee or a personal pot of tea .

Try the pineapple upside-down cake from our 100 Best list:Sandra Holl turns a dessert most associated with the Midwest, the ’70s and canned pineapple rings into something lovely and sophisticated
