If you’re not hungry now, you will be after you read this post and check out this website. I met Allyson Ames a few months ago because she is also in Mark Victor Hansen’s new book, “The Richest Kids in America.” She has a great story but an even more amazing business along with the perfect website. Her business is called Wonderland Bakery and yes, it’s a real bakery in Newport Beach, California. But it’s more than just an ordinary bakery. Her store looks like you just walked into the “Happiest Place on Earth.” And even more ironic is that Allyson looks like she could be Alice in Wonderland.
She has baked goodies for some really famous people and sends cookies, cakes, and cupcakes plus a whole lot more all over the country. Whoopi Goldberg picked Allyson’s gingerbread cookie as her favorite when they had a contest on “The View.” Allyson even made custom cookies for President Obama’s Inauguration Party. That’s pretty awesome! You can read all about that and lots of other cool stuff on her website.
Even though we met a few months ago, I didn’t have a chance to try her goodies. She surprised me this week when she sent me three different kinds of cookies. These weren’t your ordinary cookies either. One box had deluxe chocolate chip cookies and raspberry chocolate cream cookies. The other box had custom cookies made with my Pencil Bugs logo on them. They were so colorful and perfect, I almost didn’t want to eat them but I did. Before I shared them with my mom and dad, I just had to take a picture of them. They were like little presents that you could give to someone.
The good thing was, even with the frosting, they weren’t real sweet which we all liked. The cookie was a sugar cookie but better than anything you could imagine. Sometimes when you get things in a bakery, they look pretty but they don’t taste that good. Allyson’s cookies looked perfect AND they tasted perfect too!
If you’re looking for something different for a party or maybe a gift for someone just for fun, Wonderland Bakery is the place to go. And if you can’t get there, she’ll ship them to you.
Did I sound like a commercial? I guess I did but her goodies are worth bragging about. Check out her website or if you’re close enough to her store, go in person. You’ll see what I was talking about.
