The Bakeshop On Kelley Street Manchester

an experience i will not soon forget. the staff here did a great favor for me on my visit. while on a recent road trip through the area i was researching for bakeries nearby and found their webpage. things looked delicious and i scrolled through the options. what popped out immediately was a listing under pie flavors for grasshopper pie. really an all time favorite of mine and seen very rarely recently. it's a chocolate cookie crust with a mint mousse/cream filling and topped with whipped cream. love it. pointed the car in that direction with anticipation. arrived to find a cute little bakery that does a huge variety of items. fantastic looking donuts, cookies, cakes, brownies, bagels, etc. quite obvious they are popular as some cases were low on stock. but the items here were lovely. i wonderful lady-wish i had here name-asked me if she could help me. seeing no slices of said pie in the case i asked about the availability of the grasshopper pie. she conferred with the folks in back doing the baking and reported that no unfortunately it was not available. heavily disappointing. so while i perused she helped customers who had recently arrived. after deciding to try a brownie, the baker came from the back to say that a 5" grasshopper pie could be made if i had a few minutes. seems that earlier that day the had made a special order 12" grasshopper and had a quantity of the filling left to produce the small version. immediately it was yes from me. chatted and browsed as it was created. what came out was a gorgeous pie that i just knew was going to be delicious. you could smell the wonderful mint just holding the box. purchased the brownie also and thanked them profusely. i will mention that while the brownie had nice chocolate flavor, it was quite dry. maybe a day or two too long on the shelf. after dinner it was time for pie. and as expected it was perfect. all ingredients fresh and flavorful. they had decorated the top beautifully Andes mints and Oreos along with puffs of cream. the texture of the filling was exactly as it should be-firm not runny, light and airy, and full of delicious mint flavor. it was all i could do to not finish all of it in one sitting. as my wife is not a fan of mint it was all mine. i can't commend and thank the folks here at this area treasure. i only wish you were closer to my home so i could order this regularly. highly recommended.

Originally, I placed an order a quarter sheet cake, then I had to change it to a half sheet cake a week before the event. Thankfully they were able to change this for me. The women I worked with were amazing, they understood my needs and the cake tasted great. When I went to pick it up, the cake was secure and I was greeted by lovely staff members. I will absolutely be ordering through them again for any cake or baked good needs. Thank you!
