It’s called Cravings, but my sweet tooth cravings went unsatisfied after visiting. I tried the hazelnut zuccotto, the lime blueberry bombe, and the blueberry crumb cake, and none of them lived up to the hype. Given the accolades tied to the first two and the overall price point, I expected more.
The cakes were on the drier side, and the flavors—especially in the hazelnut zuccotto and blueberry crumb cake—lacked the punch I was hoping for.
One thing to note: all of their cakes and pastries appear to be refrigerated. Personally, I cannot stand when bakeries do this. When I go to a bakery, it’s because I’m craving dessert now, not after a two-hour thaw. And if you’re like me, you’ll probably eat them before they’re fully thawed and end up walking away dissatisfied.

We ordered an assortment tray. Big hit. This place hits the spot every time. My go-to for premium desserts.

My boyfriend and I were walking along Webster and passed the bakery, and as a last second, decided to stop in. Greeted by very helpful and friendly staff. We got a few lemon cookies for our walk, and a piece of Lime Bombei Cake for later. Blown away by the cake. The delicacy of the lime, the smoothness of the creme balanced incredibly well with the blueberries and the moist sponge. Thank you for the amazing food experience. Incredible dessert.

Their specialty is pastries, for what they cost they are worth it. The staff were relaxed and helpful. I'd love to see more gluten free items on the menu.
So this place has basically closed down all inside dining (except once a month wine tastings). The dessert we ordered was a Boston Crème Pie, it was frozen and once it thawed it was dry and short on flavor. It was an item for one person and was $10, so way over priced. Too bad the hype doesn’t match the reality.
Received the most delicious box of deserts from a longtime, good friend. Cravings Gourmet Desserts - exceptional!
The wedding cake we ordered was beautiful and delicious! Tim was extremely easy and pleasant to work with, as well as, accommodating!
Delicious local chocolate wide variety of flavors and an easy build it section for your tastes! A wonderful atmosphere easy to find favorites and a great price. If you want some chocolatey treats in your life look no further.
