16 Best Bakeries in Newton

“Incredible customer service, the kind that is rare to find! Above and beyond! The pastries are delicious. The Cruffins are light, airy and just the right amount of sweetness. We support small businesses, and this one is a hidden gem!“

“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!“

“This is literally the best coffee in town. I’ve been going once a week for the past two years, and it never disappoints. They also have the best apple cider doughnut in the area, seriously, you have to try it.
Everything they make is delicious, and their bread is amazing too, especially the Japanese-style one. The quality, the flavor, and the consistency keep me coming back every single week. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Lovely staff and delicious baked goods!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“My Husband broke up with me after 9years of relationship. It started from small misunderstandings after which he told me that it would be good to take a break, which I think turned into a breakup. He no longer looks for me, he blocked my number and people said they saw him with another woman, this brought tears to my eyes because we are about to marry, I searched for help when I came across this spiritual man called DR OZOLE who have helped many people having relationship problem, I talked with him about my situation and he described to me the process to get back with my lover, I followed his instructions and today I'm happy because my man came back after 5 months of breakup and we are happily married now. If you need the help of a spell caster for any kind of relationship problem contact DR OZOLE for a lasting solution. #drozoleapellhome“

“I do not shop at Whole Foods with none near where I live. I felt like a foreigner. Almost no brands were familiar to me. Great customer service. Very clean and alluring. Ample parking. Pickup station. Fresh flowers. Indoor eating area. Impressive food bars. The model is organic and uber-healthy foods. Everthing a grocery shopper would want except the high prices for everything.

The firm, fresh grapes we bought were soft within a day. My daughter, who shops here exclusively, reports that its fresh produce often spoils quickly, even with refrigeration.

I asked about the renovations in progress after hearing regular customers on two trips express frustration that they could not find the items they sought. I was told a new freezer aisle would be installed. I was also given inside information that Whold Foods routinely reorganizes their aisles for at least two reasons: to move goods of paying companies to prominent locations and to rearrange high-volume items to force regular shoppers to search the aisles with the intent that they will find new items of interest.“

“We got our wedding cutting cake here and it was absolutely amazing! We had many kosher guests who loved the cake, plus it was dairy and nut free for our many guests who had dietary restrictions. The wedding cake tasting was super fun, they set up a little bistro table in the store for us and had many options to try. The cake was delicious and it was all gone by the end of the night with most people going back for seconds! Karen could not have been nicer during the whole process and they were very accommodating of allergies. Would highly recommend!“

“Very friendly Fast Clean Good food Good price“

“Every year I host a tennis charity event Serve For a Cure in support of the Jimmy fund and the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. I reached out to Nothing Bundt Cakes, via email thinking they wouldn’t answer me. I got an phone call saying they would like to donate cakes to my event. When I was told how many, I was flabbergasted. They were so generous and very easy to work with. The day of my event a friend of mine picked up the personal cakes, and we gave them out to the tennis players. I some how got 4 of them. They were delicious! I would highly recommend Nothing Bundt Cakes for your next occasion or even just a sweet treat.“

“Tried cake from this chain of bakery (different location,) about a month ago at a birthday party and loved it. Fast-forward to this week, when my husband's birthday falls. I picked him up the Strawberry Cream cake #3. It was a bit smaller than I expected, since I ordered the biggest & most expensive one, but...it was AMAZING! Delicious & not too sweet. I also had forgotten to bring candles to the family member's house, where we were cutting the cake, and was pleasantly surprised to see that they not only included a utensil to cut & serve the cake, but also 10 candles! The bakery itself was clean and the employees were quick and friendly. I ordered the cake a few days in advance and it was ready right on time. I would definitely order from here again and recommend them. ❤️“

“I order about 4x/wk from Tatte. I love it BUT lately: A salmon sandwich was drowning in sauce, having to scrape it off and dispose of bread; a Turkey Blat had so much mayo I could not taste the turkey, and an egg order was made wrong.“
