Simply Sweet


Hello my foodie friends. Thanks for your patience of me not being able to write as often.

 
Let's talk food!


If you blink, you'll miss a cute little house on the west side of State Street in Orem. It has a green door and the name of The Chocolate. Bakeries like this are popping up all over, but this one has stood out to me so far. There are no bells and whistles. It's just simple. That what I loved the most. When you walk in the bakery cases greet you and to the right there is a little room off to the side you can order your treats and eat with your friends.


I liked being in here and ordering because the girl that helped me was super friendly and let me know about her favorites and what was popular. Many bakeries now you can buy pasteries, a whole cake, cupcakes, cookies, and brownies. The Chocolate is nice because the selection is minimal so you don't feel overwhelmed in picking what looks good.


There are several cakes to chose from. If you get a slice its about 4 dollars and change, or you can go all out at spend 36-42$ on a whole one!! I bought a slice of the red velvet (aka The Velvet) which was enough for three people to enjoy. YUM!! The cupcakes are easy to chose from- I was suggested to try the german chocolate! I bought a turtle brownie, which tasted absolutely homemade!




When I eat I love to be able to pick out the flavors in things. This place is ideal for me, because even down to the frosting I could taste how it was made. If you don't want to spend an arm and leg for a tasty dessert I suggest swinging by!!
PS. this thursday *october 28th* is chocolate day!!!
