“Katie was the absolute BEST to work with for our wedding - we can't recommend her enough! She developed an assortment of mini cupcakes and macarons that perfectly matched our wedding colors, flavor preferences, and accommodated the groom's allergies. She was so organized and easy to work with and handled all of the day-of setup and breakdown flawlessly. Our desert table felt so personal and we got so many compliments from guests. We can't wait to have another excuse to work with Katie!“

“Got the Melon Pan, Chocolate Croissant, Iced Matcha Latte, and Iced Latte.
The melon pan was really good and I enjoyed the sweet crust. I just wish the inside was a bit more “cloudy”/fluffy (less doughy) like traditional melon pans. The Chocolate Croissant was amazing. Really liked the chocolate filling and the flakiness of the croissant.
The matcha latte was pretty good, but a bit too sweet. The coffee in the iced latte was a bit too acidic for my taste. All their baked goods are pretty cheap tho!“

“Very nice bakery - friendly staff.

We ordered a cake a few years ago for a gender reveal party that worked out really well.

Recently we wanted to do the same thing to announce our second child, so we ordered a small batch of cupcakes with a blue/pink center to do the gender reveal. Except this time they forgot to add the filling! We called up the bakery and within an hour they had quickly put together some replacement cupcakes. Mistakes happen - but their team really worked hard to help us out and save the day.“

“The cookies are always fresh and tasty and made of the best ingredients. We live in Boxborough, MA and drive all the way there. Got lucky and my day off they were open. Thanks for making it always worth it.☺️😋The Alda Family“

“The desserts are amazing we got there too late and missed the mochi donuts. But we got this other mochi dessert with cream and custard filling. It was so so good, and even better the next day. One has a match cream and another a custard filling. We will definitely be back to try their other stuff.“

“Cranberry Pecan Roll is out of this world.“

“I buy their wonderful breads and scones every Wednesday at the Wayland Farmers Market. I look forward to visiting their actual store this fall. The Dakota, cinnamon and white breads are the best.“

“The cakes and pastries are always fresh. I’ve been going since I was a little girl, and now I bring my own kids there for treats. I pray they stick around for a long time.“

“Excellence in baking and customer service! Must try everything!“

“My sister-in-law just sent me and my wife a door dash order to cheer us up, with cold brew and two pains au chocolat. I took one bite and… wow. Buttery but light and flaky, cooked just right - understated perfection in a bag! I grew up in France, and this is honestly one of the best French pastries I have had in 28 years living in the US. Even in France it's not every day you find one this good! We’ll be going there for more, can’t wait to try what else they have to offer!“

“Absolutely delicious! The cake was a huge hit, everyone raved about it. It was moist, flavorful, and beautifully decorated. Several guests went back for seconds!!! A perfect birthday treat!“

“I am so impressed with the creativity and quality of the beautiful creations these amazing sisters! Everyone should order their custom designed cakes and pastries from Solodko. And how clever their last name means sweet-perfect! Nadine“

“The best cake I have ever had! Susan will make you anything you dream of! It tastes just as good as it looks! My Baby shower cake was the most talked about at the party! If your looking for a cake for any occasion whether big or small Please give her a call you will not be disappointed! She exceeds expectations for every occasion! Birthday, Weddings, Graduation, Showers, even dessert cakes or cupcakes. Cake is the answer!“

“Hosted a graduation party for my son. We used the catering service for the food. It was easy peasy to order , the food was delicious it was delivered on time and set up for us. The 40 people who attended left stuffed with the food and the great cake. I highly recommend that if you need catering, want great food and service this is the place to use“

“Got a loaf of the Sunflower Multigrain a few weeks ago and this is hands down the best bread I've ever had.“

“Country Desserts Bake Shop on Lexington Street in Newton is a true hidden gem for anyone craving fresh, homemade-style baked goods. Two years ago, Igor Quintero, who had been working with Nancy, the prior owner, bought the bakery. He kept Nancy's wonderful offerings while adding many of his own. Walking through its doors, you're met with beautifully stocked cases brimming with an irresistible selection of treats, each one crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients and free from preservatives--just like homemade desserts should be.

With so many delicious options, it's hard to know where to start. Their chocolate chip, oatmeal, and Italian wedding cookies, available in three flavors, are simply fantastic. The turnovers are exceptional, featuring perfectly flaky crusts filled with delectable fruit fillings, including adorable miniature raspberry versions. Their selection of pies is just as impressive, with highlights like their tangy key lime pie and irresistible lemon squares for citrus lovers.

Muffins here are moist and flavorful, but if you have a favorite variety, you'll want to call ahead or arrive early, as they tend to sell out fast. Each holiday brings special seasonal treats, and placing an order ensures you won't miss out. Today, I spotted Easter bread made the old-fashioned way, sparking nostalgia in my friend, who fondly recalled the way his mother used to bake it during his childhood.

Whether you're indulging in a personal treat or ordering a custom cake for a special occasion, Country Desserts Bake Shop's dedication to quality and deliciousness shines through. The only small downside is their limited hours--they're open until 2 PM during the week, 1 PM on Saturdays, and closed on Sundays. However, early birds can rejoice, as doors open at 6:30 AM.

If you're in the area, this bake shop is an absolute must-visit.“

“Best bakery and cafe around!“

“Love this place and the great food. This place has been in our family for a couple of generations. Keep up the great food!!“

“I was searching Google for a custom pull apart cupcake cake and found Frostin in Boston. Liza was quick to respond to my email and right away we found the perfect design for my daughter’s birthday. She offered pick up in Medford and also delivery to your house! If you have allergies she offers, gluten-free, vegan and nut-free cakes!“

“Persian bakeries are hard to find. We drove over an hour to get here and were not disappointed. Everything is delicious and fresh as can be. Lots of good stuff is not on display so make sure to ask.“

“Loved the atmosphere & the selection of middle eastern, Armenian, & Persian items - fresh & packaged. It has a small shop / family feel. A must-stop if you’re visiting the area!

The guy at the register was awesome & talked with me about the area & was clearly friendly with everyone who came in before me. One of the best stops while I visited town & can’t wait to go back for more goodies!“

“Absolutely wonderful small bakery. I feel like one of the family every time I go there. I get to try new food specialties from Guatemala! Yum. Today Today it was an amazing tortita. I was planning on taking a photo of it to add to the post but I ate it too soon!!! Yum!!! Totally recommend it.“

“It’s a great place! Tried the ham and cheese croissant here—impressive quality. You can tell it’s made using proper lamination technique: the dough has beautifully defined layers, light and flaky. The coffee was well-balanced with a smooth finish. A solid spot if you appreciate well-crafted pastries and good coffee.“

“custom made cake ordered. came out perfectly. my 3 yr old grandson, who believed he would get a rainbow layered cake even though we tried to convince him it wasn't happening was delighted.the cake was delicious, just the perfect amount of sweetness beautifully decorated. I sent the bakery a photo of desired cake interior, it was perfect. she made my grandson's 3rd birthday wonderful for him“

“Have you ever been having a really bad day and someone does something nice unexpectedly and suddenly you want to cry? Anyways the women here are fantastic and deserve raises“

“First time having a MOCHI DONUT. Flippin’ awesome, and couldn’t recommend them enough if you’re a pastry lover.“

“I'm not usually a big fan of mochi, but this was incredible! The mochi texture was impossibly soft and the fresh cream and fruits inside were delicious. Surprisingly the Oreo flavor was our favorite, but I also loved the strawberry! I'd definitely come back here.“

“I love the Bakehaus. Cushings Square has been made infinitely more delicious and the outside seating is summery and lovely!“

“Sally made an absolutely beautiful cake for my daughter’s first birthday, everyone was completely amazed by it! It tasted incredible too! I was most impressed with how she created exactly what I’d asked for, which hasn’t always happened when I’ve been to other bakeries in the past. It’s clear she cares about her customers and is passionate about what she does. Thank you!“

“First visit today, the bread is amazing!!! Love it❤“

“The best sell I can give you on Danish Pastry House is that we ordered wayyyy more than enough cake for our wedding guests (3 flavors and enough to feed about twice as many guests as we had) and it was ALL gone at the end of the night. People were coming up to us saying they tried all three flavors because it was so delicious!

They did such a good job, the cake was amazing, and the flavors are so much more unique and interesting than the basic “vanilla” and “chocolate” that most bakeries offer for their wedding cake flavors. We went with black forest, Swedish princess, and passionfruit, but everything we tried from the bakery during the tasting was awesome.

They also worked with me in advance to use dried flowers I sourced to decorate the cake. It turned out even better than I could have hoped for! Everything was delivered on time and was just perfect.

I’d highly recommend Danish Pastry House to anyone looking for a unique, delicious, and affordable wedding cake option! I think they were by far one of the best bang-for-our-buck wedding vendors, and we’re so thankful to them!“

“I highly recommend this small business bakery! Miss Wanda recently made a firetruck-themed birthday cake and cupcakes for our son's 3rd birthday party and they were a hit! Plus their everyday pastries are delicious - I buy some for my coworkers all the time and they love them!“

“Had a blueberry scone, cranberry muffin, and grabbed a garlic cheddar bread loaf. The muffin was old and dry, the scone was pretty good, but the loaf was incredible. It went amazingly with eggs and grilled cheeses. It was calorically heavy and still might have been the fastest my health-conscious household has gone through a load of bread in ages. I'm excited to try their other artisan loafs and see if they can redeem the last muffin.“

“Blown away by our cake! In one email Andrea completely captured my husband’s vibe and sent me a sketch with an idea that was far better than I imagined. The end product literally stole the show! The cake was also delicious - moist and flavorful. If you want a masterpiece that reflects the personality of the person or event you are celebrating, text, call or email Andrea NOW. She is amazing.“

“Fantastic Sesame chicken dinner“

“The breads especially the sub rolls and other delicious thing they make are really well portioned much bigger than most. the atmosphere is welcoming and homey feeling. And the staff are super nice especially the owners are engaging wirh the customers they are a family that really care about their customers
If I could give more than 5 stars I would.... 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟“

“12th birthday cake for my boys party today. Really delicious, great looking cake. Icing between layers was nothing I have tasted before. Highly recommend!!!“

“Very friendly Fast Clean Good food Good price“

“I found your bread at Whole Foods in Portland ME. ! I purchased the Rosemary Garlic . It was good I just wish the flavor was a lot stronger .“

“I was warmly greeted & waited on this morning by a friendly employee. He answered my questions regarding ingredients to avoid nut allergies and made a wonderful recommendation of a cake layered with creme & sweetened with honey. It was moist, not heavy or as rich as you might imagine. A perfect balance and delicious treat. Ample parking directly across the street as well as curb side. A complete delight.“

“I remember going there as a kid and getting there warn French bread, square pizza, lemon squares, and raspberry turnovers! Family treated you like family!“

“Opens at 6am which is awesome! They have yummy coffee and MEM tea as well as a massive assortment of tasty treats (those cinnamon buns are dangerous…maybe leave those for me).

They also make cakes with 48 hours notice!!!

There is one step to get in but there may be a ramp around the side. I didn’t notice. Otherwise fully accessible and plenty of parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: One step“

“I just had one of your mini trifles. Chocolate, mousse with hazelnuts. Oh my goodness. It was scrumptous!“
