“If you’re looking for someone to make your kid’s birthday extra special, look no further than Gimme S’more! 💕 I used them for my son’s 5th birthday and I was blown away. The owner was such a great communicator and seriously went above and beyond. She even ordered the monster trucks herself to make my son's cake vision come to life! and let me tell you, a monster truck crashing into the cake is about as cool as it gets for a 5-year-old boy. 🛞💥🎂 My son was obsessed! And the Funfetti cupcakes? Oh. My. Gosh. SO moist, so yummy, and they disappeared faster than I could grab one for myself 😂. To top it off, she delivered everything right to the party which made life 100x easier. Highly recommend!! Gimme S’more CRUSHED 🏁 it! 🧁✨“

“Loved this cute little place!!! My daughter and I were out and about, and wanted to get some coffee, but not from the regular “chain” coffee shop, so after a quick search, we headed to Metuchen. We were lucky enough to get parking right outside, and walked in to be pleasantly surprised by the esthetic vibe. Everything was super clean, and we were greeted right away by the super friendly employee. My daughter ordered a cappuccino and I got iced coffee. We also got a cheese and pesto savory pastry and a passion fruit and coconut tres leches dessert. Everything was delicious!!!!! Thanks for the enjoyable experience. We will definitely return.“

“Just recently found out about crumbl after my neighbor brought over a 6 pack. OH MY GOODNESS!! You have not lived until you have tried a cookie from crumbl! They are to die for! There is always at least one flavor per week that you will absolutely love and devour! The staff is very friendly, the store is so cute and clean, and have i mentioned the cookies are out of this world!?!? Do yourself a favor, go to crumbl!“

“Amazing bakery, delicious food and coffee and beverages in general. The atmosphere is so cute. The people are super super kind and sweet and you feel very welcomed when you walk into the bakery.

“I ordered a Baked Bouquet for my grandma’s 99th birthday and it was a huge hit! When we brought it out, everyone genuinely thought it was a real flower arrangement — the detail was unbelievable. People were actually hesitant to eat it because it looked so pretty!

But once we did, wow — the cupcakes were fresh, soft, and delicious. Not overly sweet, just really good. My grandma loved it and so did the rest of the family. It added such a special touch to the celebration. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something unique and beautiful and tasty!“

“I absolutely love Vincenzo! His personality, energy, creativity and designs are all magical!
He is a true artist and his medium is Fondant. If you want someone who gets excited to create something special for you and enjoys the creative process Vincenzo Salvatore is your person!

Not only are his cakes a work of art, they are delicious. I think my husbands favorite part of wedding planning was going to the cake tastings!

When planning a wedding it's important to align yourself with vendors/creatives who see your vision and get excited for you!
Vincenzo was our number 1 fan throughout the entire process!“

“This review is LONG overdue, but this past October, Sophie had a cake prepared for my boyfriend’s 25th birthday. It was coming up really soon and I still hadn’t gotten a cake. I came across Sophie C’s Sweets on Facebook and saw how talented she was. I messaged her on a Monday, asking if she’d be able to bake me a cake by the following Saturday, and to my surprise, she was able! The ordering process was super smooth and the pricing was very reasonable. When I picked up the cake, she had it beautifully presented, and it looked BETTER than the reference I had sent. Let me tell you, when we finally had a bite, this was the BEST cake I’ve had in my entire life. I’m not exaggerating. If you’re looking for someone to make your custom cake, don’t think twice, get it from Sophie C’s Sweets!“

“Best bread in the area I love the challah breads and cheese danish the freshest I’ve ever tasted. Will be back again and again because this place really is a gem. There aren’t anymore bakery’s in New Jersey so I’m happy they are open?“

“Easily the best Korean pastries in central jersey. I've been to all of them in Bergen County and Edison. They don't cheap out on the fillings. The cakes are Great! And definitely not as pricey as some of the other Korean bakeries. I go there at least once a week.“

“Pleasant atmosphere. I don't speak much Spanish, but the lady was patient with me as I made my choice. I order the beef toco. It came with everything and freshly made tortilla. I enjoyed my meal. I had no regrets. I also had a cookie and it was nice. It was not sweet whichbus howbiblike them. It is a warm and welcoming place. I will go back again.“

“los mejores biscochos de perth amboy comprobado 😍😍👌“

“Cake my husband bought was green molded“

“Absolutely delicious and perfect! We ordered a simple, elegant three-tier white cake for our wedding and it could not have been better. The top tier was raspberry with vanilla sponge, the middle was Nutella cannoli with chocolate sponge, and the bottom was vanilla sponge with lemon custard. Every layer was incredible, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good it was. Our florist added fresh flowers, which made the cake look beautifully simple and timeless. The tasting experience with the bakery was just as wonderful, everything was fresh, flavorful, and very reasonably priced. We’re so grateful for how seamless and special they made this part of our wedding day.“

“With nearly a three hour layover, thought to have a lite lunch. I looked around and did not spot anything that particularly attracted my taste. I approached Aunti Anne's as I noticed one of the employees making pretzels and he started to talk to me describing them and encouraged me to give it a try. So I looked at the menu and say a pretzel with a hot dog. Wow. I lived in NJ for six years and do not recall seeing that, am sure I just did not pay attention. I thought, why not try a local favorite. No regrets. the mini pretzel dog is essentially a full hot dog cut up and wrapped with a pretzel. This satisfied my hunger and left me with a style. I encourage others to give a try, you will not regret.“

“Nice atmosphere. Both pictures groups. I love Pink floyd beetles“
