Wildflour Bakery & Desserts

Alexandra Fabre and Kate Gordon are good friends and now co-owners of Wildflour, a brand new bakery and cafe in Troy. The eatery offers baked goods like croissants, cookies, cinnamon rolls and more, plus sundaes made with Ray’s Ice Cream. Gordon suggests the spicy mango sundae, which is just the right mix of spicy and sweet. You can also find empanadas, sandwiches, tea and coffee. Stop in for a treat or lunch, or contact the business to order a custom cake for your next event.

What’s New? – Ground Control Coffee Roasters

What’s new with Ground Control Coffee Roasters in downtown Farmington? They’ve launched a “disloyalty” program whereby customers can get a card stamped at other small coffee shops, and if they get six total, they get a unique coffee mug. It’s a nod to the fact that Ground Control’s customers travel throughout the metro Detroit area and have a common love for coffee, said Trent Chapman, director of operations. Pick up your card at one of six participating businesses listed on Ground Control’s social media sites.
