Everyone there is so nice. Their rice pudding is gluten free and soooo flavorful. I'm a huge fan. They also have a perfect key lime pie. Don't miss out on this excellent place!

You know how Hoboken and Jersey City somewhat lack elevated bakeries except Sweet in Hoboken? That's because you haven't been here yet. Awesome stuff. Cakes taste like actual cakes used to, not the lowest common denominator that dominates modern American baking. Great place, no further notes.

I never thought that this cake is the BEST! I loved chocolate cake and always trying cake shop/ bakery that i can get the best Chocolate Cakes in town. Cocoa Cake is so moist and so delicious 10/10 😍

The food was great! I bought a pastry and some cookies. I also bought a birthday cake. The reason for 3 stars is because I purchased a vanilla cake, and they gave me the chocolate one. We ate it since it was the only cake we had, but just wish it wasn't chocolate as it wasn't birthday girls favorite.

3 years ago I was looking for a good local cake spot for my boyfriend's birthday.

When I purchased
- a custom chocolate cake with:
- chocolate mousse,
- vanilla buttercream,
- and cookie pearls...
I was not expecting that it would become an annual tradition!

My boyfriend loved that first cake, saying it is the best birthday cake he has ever had. Since then, I have been ordering the same cake from Cocoa Bakery every year for his birthday and it does not disappoint.

This year, I threw my boyfriend a birthday party. His guests independently said Cocoa Bakery's cake was the best birthday cake they have had as well. Thanks Cocoa Bakery for the consistency!

This year I also decided to ask Cocoa Bakery to decorate the two cakes I ordered. I didn't know what to expect after they said they could match my proposed designs...but what I received was beautiful and so fun! Yes, my boyfriend is an adult man haha, but I love going all out for him with a theme or two...and Cocoa Bakery helped accomplish my visions!!

*Note: if you are planning to ask for a decorated cake, please reach out to Cocoa Bakery and give them a 2 weeks heads up min.

ALSO when I went to pick up the cakes I found out they just started doing UberEATS...the snacks they have there look delicious so I will definitely be ordering from them for a casual snack too!

Great little place in town for a quiet moment away from daily grind outside. Cheese Danish was delicious. Thanks

Their gluten-free chocolate cake and cup cakes with butter cream icing are truly the desserts of the gods! I keep looking for the opportunity to head to the Heights to buy those treats. Hmmm. Another family birthday is coming up. Think I’ll give Cocoa a call and place an order!

- Love the quiet and serene vibe of the bakery, it always smells amazing, it is freakishly clean, and I get treated with an amazing smile always.
- I almost come here 2-3 times in a week to work or attend classes.
- It has become my go to spot.
