The person behind a wholesale and catering business that focuses on teas and baked goods has reopened her retail shop four years after it shut down.
The Tables section of The Boston Globe reports that The Vintage Tea and Cake Company in Belmont is open once again on Belmont Street, selling a variety of teas along with such items as scones, Irish brown bread, lemon squares, macarons, and coffee. The article mentions that owner Adel Donegan had shut down the retail shop in 2015 in order to put more focus into her catering and wholesale operations and spend more time with her growing family.
The Vintage Tea and Cake Company first started out in 2012.
The address for this reopened shop in Belmont is: The Vintage Tea and Cake Company, 129 Belmont Street, Belmont, MA, 02478. Its website can be found at http://www.vintageteaandcake.com/

Delectable Desires Pastries in West Roxbury Is Opening a Kiosk at Boston's South Station
The person behind a bakery-cafe that developed from a home-based cake business then a wholesale business is planning to open a second retail location, and this one would be popular with travelers.
According to a licensing board page within the city of Boston website, Delectable Desires Pastries in West Roxbury is looking to open at Boston's South Station, with the new location being a kiosk within the food court. The listing says that the shop, which would have no seats (though there is shared seating just outside of the food court), would be open Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM. If approved, the Delectable Desires Pastries kiosk would presumably offer pastries and cookies--and possibly cake slices and pie slices--based on the offerings at the Centre Street store.
Owner Carlene O'Garro started out in the cake business in 2007, eventually wholesaling her products to cafes and markets across the region; her shop in West Roxbury opened in early 2015.

[October 10 update: A source tells us via Twitter that Delectable Desires Pastries is now open at South Station, and this has been confirmed by a Facebook post from the business.]

Lady M Cake Boutique Is Opening in Boston's Back Bay
A New York-based bakery that specializes in handmade cakes is on its way to Boston.
A licensing board notice within the City of Boston website mentions that Lady M Cake Boutique is planning to open on Newbury Street in the Back Bay, with a Facebook page from the shop confirming this. Based on its other stores, expect to see cakes with both French and Japanese influences, including its signature crepes cakes which are made using multiple layers of crepes and pastry cream and have options such as chocolate, green tea, strawberry, and more. Once it opens, the new location of Lady M will join three others in Manhattan and one in Los Angeles, as well as three in Singapore and two in Hong Kong.
According to a post within the Serious Eats site, Ken Romaniszyn--who was inspired by time he spent in Japan while growing up--opened the first Lady M Cake Boutique on Manhattan's Upper East Side in 2004.
The address for this new cake bakery in the Back Bay is: Lady M Cake Boutique, 304 Newbury Street, Boston, MA, 02115. The website for Lady M can be found at http://www.ladym.com/
[June 27, 2016 update: A new licensing board page indicates that the upcoming Lady M Cake Boutique in the Back Bay has apparently decided not to have any seating; instead, it will be takeout only.]
[June 29, 2016 update: Eater Boston states that Lady M Cake Boutique is now open in the Back Bay.]
