Wonderful hole-in-the-wall run by a lady almost as sweet as the triple fudge brownie she pushes, and yes it's that addictively delicious. The cookie lineup is equally tasty if you're not into that brown-brown and the mere mention of whole milk as my ideal pairing had Ashleigh palming me a carton on the house. Don't pass up the chance for a taste of homemade goodness, this is a must-visit. -
Ashleigh Bakes Daily is incredible! The cookies are absolutely delicious, and you can truly taste the love and care she puts into every batch. Everything feels homemade in the best way, with thoughtful flavors and amazing quality. You can tell she genuinely bakes from the heart. -
Love love love Ashleigh and her sweet treats! The brownies are my absolute favorite. The chocolate chip cookies are a close second favorite.
The new space is super cute and the music is always a vibe. If you're ever in downtown Durham, please go check her out. You will not be disappointed! -
We hired Ashleigh Bakes for our wedding dessert + favors. Friends & family RAVED about how good these cookie are. Ashleigh was wonderful to work with - so kind & professional. Can’t recommend enough! -
Hands down the most delicious brownie I have ever tasted.
The Triple Fudge Brownie is incredibly moist, bursting with flavor but not cloyingly sweet. This is going to be a weekly purchase for me! And it’s great when paired with vanilla ice cream. The Perfect treat!
