Hen Heifer - Guilford

Don't be deceived by the elegance and beauty of their creations, they taste better than they look. I'm not sure there's any place in the area comparable to the level of perfection offered here. Honestly, in my travels of the world there's very fewplaces that compare even within fancy French and European patisserie's. There is a level of innovation offered in theircreations that is so unique and delicious. I'd consider this a must-try eatery for anyone that eats food: Almost all dietaryrestrictions can be met amongst their daily offerings, and the staff is incredibly knowledgeable about what comprises each item.

Hen Heifer is the only bakery we go to For anyone visiting CT, it is an absolute gem of a destination. The chef and team are beyond talented in their quality of pastry work and presentation. Each unique dessert is crafted beautifully and deliciously. Iwould definitely recommend Hen Heifer for treats to bring or host a party/event! Your guests will LOVE them! We use theircakes for all of our family celebrations! Thank you to the H H team for always being the most memorable and special part of ourcelebrations!

This pastry shop is a rare gem in the area! Their desserts take inspiration from French and Japanese pastries, for a simple yet refined result. Everything is tasty, from the financier to the strawberry tart. They also sell tea from Mariage frères, andother rare European items.

Visited Hen Heifer for some birthday treats, and wow! It's a little shop, but they have so many wonderful things inside! We opted for a few things to eat on the cozy, shaded patio, and I brought home a bag of desserts for later. The folks working therewere extra friendly and helpful, offering suggestions when we couldn't decide, and keeping our to-go bag safely in the fridge ona warm day.

Could not recommend Meriano enough! We recently ordered 4 dozen cupcakes for our high school reunion and they did an amazing job. Not only were they creatively decorated, but tasted great and got rave reviews. Thank you.
