“Their Stuffed Breads are the best! 5 Star!“

“This review is long over do. This women has been blessed with the gift of baking. She makes things up and it comes to life. I can't go there too much because she has caused my family and I to become addicts. Baby she make a sweet potato cookie. Its not your average cookie plop some dough and bake. It has a buttery sweet crispy outside and in the middle a creamy sweet potato surprise. I have tried a lot of things in this bakery but that cookie is my goto. I dont buy just one. I get one for the car and one for home that I cut in 4s so I can stretch it out. I am currently in cookie rehab right now but I will be relapsing on Tuesday. Go check it out I promise you won't be disappointed. I forgot to tell you the customer service is phenomenal and the staff is amazing I will add pictures when I go back. See you there.“

“My husband surprised me with a Princess cake. I mentioned I’d love to try one after seeing it in a baking show. He searched online and Marjolaine’s was the only place he could find. He drove over an hour to pick it up and it was well worth the drive! We just picked up a Dacquoise. This one was a request from our daughter. We tried a smaller version that was in the case. It was absolutely delicious! So light and airy and the flavor was divine! We are driving this cake all the way to NC and are 100% certain that our daughter will be thrilled ! We are heading back in the beginning of April for a Marjolaine for our daughter in law. It is well worth the trip!!!“

“We ordered cupcakes for two different parties in one weekend and Sweet Mary’s did not disappoint. Great, yummy, moist cupcakes and terrific service. Sweet Mary’s is the best for cupcakes hands down!!!“

“So I went over a friends house for dinner and he had a Lupi's Bread on the table, Looked great. Tasted better. He told me about this little bakery in New Haven at 169 Washington Ave Lupi's Marchigiano Bakery. I went the next day for another Bread where I met Larry Lupi a true gentleman. His grandfather started the Bakery in 1900 when he came over from Italy, and now is being run by Larry and his brother Peter. So If you want to taste a little piece of heaven, stop by Lupi's and for a few bucks you can.
Thanks Larry and Pete,
Vinny“

“It was very good !!! Going again tomorrow“

“This was my very first time in this one particular and I was very much impressed with its cleanliness, elegance, and a majority of the presentation of their baked goods. 4 out of 5!!!! I’m terribly sorry that you lost a star but that matcha brownie tasted absolutely disgusting. Never again will I buy it!!! Sorry sweetheart but it’s lacking sugar. However I do love the sweet cream filled bread you sold me. Thank you very much for helping me figure out what I want for breakfast tomorrow. Lastly, the cream green tea cake was absolutely divine. All this from being served by an incredibly gorgeous and really cashier/manager who I had to tip handsomely. I’ll definitely stop by on payday to give their specialty caffeinated drinks a try.“

“I discovered this store when I was High School, around 1977. Graduated 1978 from Wibur Cross. They were on Edgewood Avenue and Platt Street. Then they moved to Whalley Avenue. I still tell people about this store. Always love it. 🥰“

“OTR DRIVERS With 53 ft trlrs

The drive here is down congested narrow roads with limited space for your turns. Stay alert a lot of low 12 ft bridges surrounding the customer. Follow trucker GPS but don’t rely on it. When you see the customer, You can make a right at the light or go up to the next street and make a right and another right and follow that path around to the yard, whichever’s is easier. Once on the yard, a lot of space to dock. Easy check in. Quick loading. Extremely professional staff.

Leaving the facility you will encounter the same congested narrow streets on your way out. Follow the path the customer gate tells you. You should make a left shortly after going around the curve. To get back to the interstate, make a right at the stop sign and follow that street down maybe 1/2 mile than make another left at the light. Follow that street all the way down and when you see the grocery store on the right, make a left at the light. You will see a sign that tells you which way to get back to the interstate. The last turn to get to the interstate can be tricky. You will come into a light that has strange look 4 way stop and signs that point to the interstate (can be misleading) but Dont go into the neighbourhood that the GPS will try and advise you to go down. Make a wide left turn on the street and you will see the entrance to the interstate maybe 1/4 of mile on the right hand side.

Tandems all the way forward or you will not be able to make your turns.

The community is super understanding and will get out of your way to help you make your turns, just be patient.“
