Lady M Confections

We’re incapable of walking by a Lady M without stopping in. Even if we manage to take a few steps past the entrance, we eventually turn around and give in to the gravitational pull of this dessert shop. Yes, they have “regular” cakes like a vanilla-chocolate one that looks like a checkerboard when you cut it open. But the mille crêpe cakes are the real draw. They’re made with 20 super thin crêpes stacked on top of each other with pastry cream spread between each one. We prefer the OG signature version, but there are a bunch of other flavors like green tea and butter pecan. There’s nowhere to sit at this Rock Center location, so you might as well get a whole cake to go. It’s straight-up mean to eat a slice in front of someone without having one for them.
