The staff is very friendly & accommodating. You are greeted with a smile. The atmosphere is welcoming with the smell of fresh baked goods and the racks are full of yummy goodness.

Everything I’ve tried looks far better than it tastes. Even the easy stuff. I bought at least one of everything that they offer, and I was truly disappointed.

I’ve visited this bakery many times and while the cakes are without a doubt some of the best around, the customer service has consistently been disappointing. The staff often come across as unpleasant or disinterested, which takes away from the experience. I’ve given the benefit of the doubt thinking perhaps they’ve had long days, are understaffed, or haven’t been properly trained in customer service but the pattern is hard to ignore.

What’s especially concerning is the clear difference in treatment I’ve witnessed. When visiting with non-ethnic associates, I’ve seen them receive noticeably friendlier and more attentive service, while I and others have experienced the same unpleasantness repeatedly. Family, friends and neighbors in the community have also noticed this same pattern. For a bakery that is a long-standing staple in the neighborhood, it’s truly unfortunate that the quality of the cakes isn’t matched by the quality of the service.

Disappointing dry sweets WAY over priced. Non existent customer service. Don't waste tour time just go to the grocery store

I ordered the Italian Creme cake for a family reunion last month. When I came to pick it up, I swear a little tear welled up in my eyes. It was so beautiful! I arrived at the party, proudly carrying the cake. My Italian family was sooooooooo happy to see it, and the taste, oh my! Sooooooo delicious!! I appreciate the craft of Italian deserts because our elders are passed away years now. This cake reminds me of when I was young at the family parties! HUGE THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS!!!!

I called early Saturday seeking to place an order for a cake. I knew I was too late because it was Easter weekend. The man who answered the phone was absolutely wonderful!!!!! He explained they stopped taking orders a few days earlier, but I was hoping to order something. He told me they would have items in the freezer, but to come early for the best selection. I didn’t get there too early. I was talking to one of the cashiers. She told me what they had in the back. I received and purchased a raspberry cream cake. OMGosh!!!!! That was one of the best cakes I’d ever had in my life!!!!!! I couldn’t have ordered a better desert for our meal. Now, I have really fussy eaters in my family. Everyone loved the cake. I didn’t want to send cake home with anyone, but I did. Thank you Helfer’s for the best cake for our dinner. Yes, we were social distanced in our family only event!!
