Haute Spot: Wonderland Bakery Brings an Adventure to Downtown Summerlin
Wonderland Bakery is now serving up sweets at Downtown Summerlin. Cakes, cookies, and other artistic edible creations play a starring role in the storybook shop from founder Allyson Ames.
Straight out of a fairytale, Ames, who bears a striking resemblance to Alice in Wonderland, began baking at the age of five and found a recipe for success. She was named one of Ernst & Young LLP’s Entrepreneurial Winning Women and her treats are favorites of everyone from the White House to Whoopi Goldberg. The first Wonderland Bakery opened in Newport Beach in 2005 and the brand boasts seasonal locations throughout Southern California. The Las Vegas location marks the start of a national expansion for the company that will include additional stores along with licensed lifestyle merchandise.
Wonderland Bakery is the reminiscent of childhood favorites, with dashes of influence from Willy Wonka, Candyland and the namesake Alice in Wonderland all blending to deliver the perfect whimsical experience that will delight sweet lovers of all ages.
Offering custom cakes, desserts, chocolate fountains and other treats, the signature Wonderland experience can be found in the bakery’s workshop where decorating parties bring out everyone’s inner artist. With a sprinkle bar lining the wall and a variety of frostings and creative finishing touches to choose from, Wonderland is the ideal setting for birthday soirees and gourmet gatherings.
Take Wonderland home and inspire anyone who wants to bake a memory at home with the brand’s custom baking kit, mixes, aprons and other deliciously fun wares, or always be invited back with the ideal hostess gift. Wonderland can wrap up a delectable dish of treats to go, or create custom goodies for nearly any social occasion, while logo cookies and tins make for tasty corporate calling cards.
Wonderland Bakery is open Monday – Saturday, 10 am – 9 pm and Sunday 11 am – 7 pm. For more information call 702.363.3333 or visit www.wonderlandbakery.com.
