Sweet Lady Jane Bakery   

The first thing that greets you when you walk into Sweet Lady Jane is a stone pig in a chef's hat with a green gingham bow tied around its neck. This isn't the kind of place you'd expect to find on decidedly trendy Melrose, and you probably won't see any of the carb-hating crowd darkening the door. Sweet Lady Jane specializes in desserts from Dulce de Leche Cake to specialty items like Strawberry Napoleons, English Triffle, and Hazelnut Mousse Cups. Chocolate lovers will find a friend in the Chocolate Fudge Blackout, a 2-layer cake with espresso-laced fudge between each, which features enough pastel and neon frosting to make you feel like you're about to eat a party. And if you just need a straight-forward chocolate fix, there's the Chocolate Decadence, a dense flourless chocolate-chocolate cake with fudge on top. Sweet Lady Jane also serves soups, salads, and sandwiches during lunch hours.
