I recently ordered the triple chocolate cake for my boyfriend’s birthday. It’s his favorite. We buy it every chance we get from the royal blue on Rainey St. I called Soraiya to custom order a cake– she was so accommodating and even got the cake delivered to the royal blue on our street. Eveyone at my boyfriend’s birthday party thought it was delicious. If you’re going to spend money on a cake, then it should be the best. I am very pleased with my experience and will be a repeat customer in the future.

I have no idea why Luxe Sweets chooses to only deliver and not have a storefront! The items are certainly of high enough quality as to not necessitate running on a delivery-only basis. Alas, I don’t have a business mind, so I’ll leave logistics up to them. I got mine at Royal Blue Grocery. Too often you find blueberry muffins to have either a Betty Crocker uniformity, the kind boasting a smooth, almost oily mouthfeel without lumps. Surely, surely, this goes down the hatch with the greatest of ease. But there is no hand-crafted character to these factory-packaged, processed, and homogenized confectionary goods. Enough digression. The blueberry one was chock full of the antioxidant-laden little guys. It was a little on the soggy side, but you could tell that it was whipped up from scratch, observable in the fact that all the what-the-little-girl-from-Willy Wonka-turned-into’s having fallen to the bottom of the bottom+muffin top muffins circa Seinfeld. Good mix of moistness and crumbly struesel top overall. Equally delightful, but standard, was the triple chocolate cookie. I loved the ingredients list, as I didn’t see sugar on the list of minimal ingredients(about 10, total! woohoo, unprocessed!) until the 7th or 8th item. It was crisp, lacking a sort of chewy moist touch. Great chocolate nuances, though. All in all, Luxe cranks out some fine baked goods. I still prefer their excellent, albeit expensive French cookie sandwiches i.e. macarons. Get their other stuff where you can, as they actually have a storefront for the oddly colored confectionery delicacies.
