Karen Donatelli Bakery And Cafe

While searching for a place to have lunch, we stumbled upon this restaurant, and we were pleasantly surprised. The quiche was excellent! My friend ordered the chicken salad served on a freshly baked croissant, and she claimed it was the best croissant she had ever tasted. For dessert, we decided to try a few options. We ended up with the mini key lime tart, the chocolate mousse, and the apple cinnamon dessert. They were all fantastic, but I highly recommend the apple cinnamon! There are no words to describe its taste—it's simply heavenly. I'm so glad we stopped in, and if I'm ever in Asheville again, I will definitely return!

Karen created custom baby shower cookies and pink and gold chocolate-dipped strawberries for us, and they were fantastic! They were fresh, delightful, and absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this bakery!

We chose Karen Donatelli for our wedding cake, and we are so glad we did! She was a pleasure to work with and created the most exquisite and delicious cake we've ever had. We received countless compliments about it! The white chocolate amaretto flavor was absolutely to die for. Along with our main four-tier cake, we also had two Star Wars-themed cakes, and we were thrilled with how they turned out! Thank you so much, Karen!

We have a nice simple but tasty lunch, vegetables and chicken salad on a delicious croissant with pasta salad on the side. We also took a nice dessert home, coconut creampie it was fantastic. The artistry from the pastry chef is fantastic, the cake display was beautiful. Had no coffee there, but many customers stopped a coffee, so I guess it's pretty good.

Karen made the prettiest most delicious custom wedding cake I have ever seen or tasted!
