Eater Boston is reporting that Amanda Oakleaf Cakes is planning to move from its current home on Pauline Street in Winthrop to Westland Avenue near where the Back Bay and Fenway meet (and it will be called Oakleaf Cakes). The article mentions that the new location will offer a variety of cakes and baked goods as well as coffee and espresso, and it will also have cake decorating classes.
