It’s more like a chic loft — or, rather, studio — from the tin ceiling, marble countertops and slate floors, right down to the scattering of accents of purple, the shop’s signature color. The bakery is a dessert mecca: a place where every sweet tooth can be satisfied. Creamy, almost fudge-like, dulce de leche-stuffed brownies ($4). Monster cookies called Sherry O’s ($5): agiant Oreo made with fresh ingredi- ents and a vanilla or peanut butter cen- ter. And an “evil dog,” the shop’s twist on the devil dog that will make you nos- talgic for the dessert of your youth.
