The food is great except the prices..$34 for 2 bags of cookies chocolate chip & oatmeal at $17 each I think is a bit extreme!

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.

Ordered 6 dozen assorted cupcakes for my 50th birthday and they not only looked beautiful, but they were fresh and amazingly delicious. They were the hit of the party. I’ve found my new go-to bakery! Thank you to the owner for the thoughtful service!

Delicious muffins. Got some thru too good to go (an app that aims to reduce food waste) and it was great! Easy pickup process. Only thing is I wish the parking lines out front was easier to spot bc I missed it twice… and there’s only one parking spot.

Came in this morning on St. Patrick’s Day. Best Irish soda bread I’ve ever had. It was still warm from the oven when I picked it up.

I make a special trip every few weeks to stock up on chocolate chip cookies, and then get muffins and pastries. Absolutely the best!!!

Want the best muffin of your life? Come here. The owner is so kind and all the pastry treats are delicious!
Wow! I cannot use enough superlatives to express how ridiculously delicious their baked goods are!
All ingredients are REAL, and their banana cream pie was perfection: real banan chunks, the best pudding-filling ever, and real whipped cream, with real dark chocolate shavings and a real crusts. Phenomenal!!!!
I also got a few treats for friends.
The bakery isn’t open late, so you do have to make a point to go, but it is worth it!!!
Two parking spots right out front.
Two stairs to enter.
There is a table or two to sit inside.

I wanted to try this local place, was disappointed. I asked about a pie in the case and was quickly told I could only have the one on the counter. I thought it was strange, but when I went to serve it I realized the pie was WAY OVERDONE basically burnt crust. Too bad, they chose to sell a subpar pie instead of getting a new customer. So many great bakeries in the area, so their loss.
