My favorite place to get caneles! The original and chocolate flavors are both really good. I tend to get a basque cheesecake too! Sooo good and lots of great flavors to choose from. Love stopping here for a sweet treat on my way home from work. The owner is always so sweet and welcoming too!

There’s no seating inside. We ordered to go instead. Had the canelé and the original basque cheesecake and passion fruit basque cheesecake. They were all so very good.

The Cakery is such a hidden gem!!

If you want some high quality desserts that is the right enough sweetness, you will absolutely love this place!

We tried everything from slices of their basque cheesecakes, madeleines, canneles, and financier and here were our favorites!

cheesecake: cookie and cream, strawberry and matcha
madeleine: salted caramel, earl grey
financier: snickers caramel
cannele: chocolate and matcha

You really can't go wrong with anything you order. They have a cafe opening up soon in Miramar where they'll serve the same treats alongside with some beverages that will pair well with your desserts. I'm pretty stoked for that to open!

Cheesecake is done well. I will absolutely be returning to try more. You can taste the high quality ingredients. While it is a little on the pricier side, it is worth it 100%.

The Varlhona chocolate basque cheesecake is really delicious, with just the right amount of sweetness. We purchased a whole cake and had plenty to go around. If you're big on cheesecake, don't miss this spot!

Ok so cheesecake is my favorite dessert and I’ve eaten a lot of it. This is amazing cheesecake. It doesn’t make you feel heavy after eating it and it’s not too sweet. That’s the difference that using high quality ingredients makes!

Glad I live so close:)

The cheesecake here is absolutely delightful! Perfectly sweet, rich, and oh so creamy. It’s easy to see why this place is such a popular spot.
Thank you Mia for your service, you truly know your cheesecake.

The cheesecake here is the real deal! I’ve had Basque cheesecake in Basque Country up in Idaho and this is spot on. Not too sweet with amazing flavor. If you want sugary stuff that tastes like sugar, go buy a Sara Lee cheesecake at the market😁

The cheesecakes are delicious and a wonderful dessert to bring to a party. However, the others - especially the financiers- were bland to me. Everything was incredibly expensive.

This place is a hidden gem located near a bunch of apartment complexes. Although unassuming, the place was extremely well thought out with its cozy interior and minimalistic design. The owner of the store was extremely friendly and recommended a few of their selections. We ended up getting the earl gray cheesecake, canelé, and another one of their cakes. The cakes were moist and flavorful. I highly recommend trying this place out!

CAKERY sells japanese style Basque cheesecake, and other delicate desserts. We had the earl Grey and passionfruit cheesecake.
Very delicious. A nice japanese lady was at the counter and was very sweet.
This place looks like it's in a residential area, but it's stores on the bottom and condos on the 2nd floor. Worth the trip for some good cheesecake. Bon appetit!

Loved it. The Madeleines were so fresh, and the flavors were so unique! The cheesecake and financiers were so good.

From one baker to another, WOW! From the smile and heart warming greeting, to the absolute best madeleine I’ve ever tasted. May God bless you in all you do, Amen 🙏🏾

We visited based on the 5 star reviews and ordered the basque cheesecake in passion fruit, the caneles in regular and earl grey. We thought they were so amazing that we went back and got the Madelines(lemon and chocolate with crunchy chocolate covering). The passion fruit cheesecake was so good because usually cheesecake is very rich but this one was light. The caneles were also so good, the earl grey was hard to describe(so good). Both flavors, the earl grey and the original, were excellent. The lemon Madeline was so flavorful yet still refreshing and the crunchy chocolate covering was really nice on the chocolate one.
