“Rispoli Bakery is my absolute go-to for ALL occasions! Their desserts and pastries are always top-notch—beautifully crafted, incredibly delicious, and made with such artistry and care. The entire team is so professional, friendly, and an absolute pleasure to work with. When it came to catering my husband’s 40th birthday, there was no question—I knew Rispoli Bakery was the only choice! I was overwhelmed with so many event details and had no idea what kind of cake or dessert selection I wanted. Enter Rose—an absolute lifesaver! She guided me through the entire selection process, offering expert recommendations on flavors, quality, and variety. I sent over an inspiration photo for the cake, and when I saw the final result, I was speechless. Rispoli didn’t just match the photo—they far exceeded it! It was a true masterpiece, and I was so moved that I actually cried when I saw it (lol). The dessert spread was so impressive. Every single guest raved about how incredible everything tasted, constantly asking, “Where are these amazing desserts from?!” Thanks to Rose and the team’s thoughtful recommendations, every choice was a home run. I cannot say enough good things about Rose and the entire Rispoli Bakery family. Their talent, professionalism, and warm, welcoming nature make them a joy to work with. Thank you for making my husband’s birthday so special—you’ve gained a lifelong customer! ♡“

“Amazing staff, our cakes were so yummy, just simply the best !!“

“I ordered a birthday cake for my daughter's 3rd birthday party and the communication/final delivery of the cake was perfect! Not only was the cake adorable, it tasted delicious.

“Best tres leches in the world so soft & well made that you can really enjoy the flavors! The cake itself is Delicious I been a big fan of this tres leches for many years now & wouldn't change it for no other.“

“I cannot speak highly enough about the work that Michelle and Torre do!! I have used them for 3 events this summer now! I just kept finding reasons to order desserts from them! They provided the desserts for multiple different events (retirement party, bachelorette party, bridal shower) and knocked it out of the park each time. The attention to detail and their ability to bring my vision to life is out of this world!!! And even more importantly, everything they make is delicious!!! Often times the beautiful desserts you see on instagram don’t actually TASTE good; but at Wish Upon A Pastry you get the full package. The cookies literally melt in your mouth. Will be ordering from them again and again and again and would recommend them for anyone looking for custom desserts!! THANK YOU BOTH!!“

“A hidden gem on 46! So unexpected as it’s a great cookie focused bakery on the highway. Great cookies but the Ruggies are like my grandmother made and that woman could bake some rugelach! Great pecan sandies too. Gotta try more varieties next time! And a super nice owner and staff.“

“They did an amazing job on the BURN CAKE they created for my friend for his birthday, Vanilla 8" round cake with vanilla filling. Super professional and very creative. They were patient and understanding as I chose them to place my first ever cake order with and I chose correct. The cake was made within a week spand and price was very reasonable. Will order Birthday cakes from them again.

Kid-friendliness: They make cakes for every occasion.“

“What a wonderful place! My family and I often have breakfast/brunch at Guzzo’s and we are always pleasantly satisfied with the food and service. The staff is amazing and provide you with a warm welcome. We just celebrated my daughter’s 10th birthday here with her friends. I booked the tea party package that Guzzo’s has and it was such a great experience. The girls couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had & how tasty everything was. Thanks again for making this a memorable birthday!“

“My opinion is 8.7/10. Is it the best Jamaican beef patty I've ever had? No but overall our place that makes handmade Jamaican beef patties with a good overall flavor I recommend it. Best thing definitely has to be the crust I just wish for $3 it was a little bit more meat / seasoning. Check out my in depth video reviews on any of the platforms below.

“Everything in Rispoli is delicious! Can't beat their lobster tails! We drive 90min each way every time we have a Rispoli craving and bring their cookies and pastries to our friends in central jersey. Next week we're shipping cookies to Oregon! I have a feeling it will become a regular occurrence. Thanks for never disappointing us!“

“I visited this cozy bakery to see what everyone was raving about in the comments. After going in, the owner popped up and without saying a single word, he offered us his delicious pistachio cookie! It was warm, crispy on the outside and buttery on the inside.. Which literally melted in my mouth. I had a flight afterwards and couldn’t buy anything extra. But this place deserves so much more !! Thank you!!!“

“Great people and the best rugelach on the planet.“

“My son’s Lego Birthday Cake was a home run. The cake was delicious and definitely fresh. The cake was moist and the filling was smooth. All of the guests commented how great the cake tasted. The design of the cake exceeded our expectations. Thank You, We Bake Fresh for making my son’s birthday extra special. We will be recommending you to our friends and family.“

Dietary restrictions: Wonderful Gluten-free and Vegan options.“

“Erie is amazing. Highly recommend - coffee is absolutely the best - lattes and all different flavors - hot and cold! The banana bread is my favorite but All of the different baked goods are to die for! Never had anything but excellent here. The owners and the baristas and ALL of the staff are friendly and truly provide the BEST service! If I lived in Rutherford I’d be here every day!“

“Probably the best bakery in Fort Lee, NJ area. The breads and pastries are good! Location: It is located in Fort Lee. Huge parking so its convenient! The interior is okay, great display of breads that you can just pick on! Service: pay and go, not that much interaction. Food: The breads are delicious, fluffy and still good after few days. CAKES: they have themed cakes which I like, everything is delicious and cakes are light. MATCHA CROISSANT: I don’t have a picture tho but this is good! You can taste the matcha well! BOBA TARTS: actually it is not bad, the boba were topped on a eggy tea infused cream filling. I wouldn’t order it again to be honest. Lol Price rating: 6/10, not that bad for goodies. Definitely will come back for more! Been here multiple times! The cakes were amazing! Light and fluffy!“

“I love By the Way Bakery since I discovered it couple of years ago. Friendly staff, many choices and the guarantee that I will not get sick when I buy anything from here. I am obsessed with the coconut cake and the carrot cake.

Dietary restrictions: All gluten free, dairy free and vegan.“

“Choux délicieux. Nombreux choix de parfums“

“First time here, but it definitely won’t be the last! Everything we tried was delicious. Loved the chocolate baklava and the rice pudding the most. Tahini & pistachio baklava were great too. Cutest interior and coffee cups. The owner was super kind as well! Highly recommend!“

“Everything was absolutely perfect, from the service to the deliciousness of the food (Chilean sea bass was outstanding, the lamb chops special was superb and the grilled octupus was perfectly tender). The only mention I have and it's seriously not a big deal was the dining room that we were seated in was a bit too dark I actually had to turn my flashlight on my phone to see. On a scale of 1-10 I give it an 11 !!“

“This place is just amazing! There were 5 of us and we all ordered something different. Everything we got was delicious- we all tried each other's dishes. There's a little bit of everything to satisfy even the pickiest eater. I would just drive her (over a 2 hour drive for me) just to come eat here. I need this place closer to home, lol.“

“Had the walnut chocolate chip and oatmeal scone they didn't have the cookie which is what I went for, not a fan of chocolate chip cookies but this was different! Def stopping by when in the area! Great taste crunchy buttery and soft all at the same time“

“Hmmm I'm not sure about the hype on this place. The service is slow (maybe to create a line outside?) and everything was pretty expensive. I got a few donuts and a baguette and it was good but not really anything amazing. Not sure if I would wait in line again for this place when there are so many bakeries in the area.“

“As charming as the bakery is, it pales in comparison to Miss Eleanor, the owner. Over the past several years I developed a sensitivity to wheat, so I wanted a gluten-free snack. She had a wide selection of sweets (cupcakes, cookies, brownies) but I saw the picture of biscuits and quickly decided to enjoy them with my coffee.

I took Ms Eleanor up on her offer to warm them up and chatted while waiting for my order to be complete. We had a lovely conversation about so many things - food, travel, career changes.

The biscuits were delicious and very reasonably priced so I’ll have to make my way back soon.

Dietary restrictions: gluten-free. dairy-free. egg-free. keto/sugar-free.“

“This is hands down the ABSOLUTE BEST BAKERY in the TRi-STATE AREA!!! Everything is always super fresh and delicious. Their variety of Cheescakes, Carrot cake, Fruit tarts, Cookies, Biscotti, Lobster tail pastries, and birthday cakes are to die for!

“Beautiful pastry and coffees!! Just remarkable and the friendliest and polite staff!! Always my pit stop on my bike rides 🚴up to Ramsey!!“

“Such helpful and wonderful staff . Picked up a valentines cookie cake for my daughter’s class and they decorated it wonderfully. I was given a free sample of the caramel crumb cookie and it was divine. Did I mention they were super friendly and kind ???? 100/10

They have many treats and I saw some gorgeously decorated chocolate strawberries and I thought the price was amazing for the presentation. I think a dozen strawberries were $36 which is a bargain compared to other places who make subpar looking strawberries . I would have loved to receive them as a gift myself !

Can’t wait to try the banana pudding next time !“

“I had went to three different bakery trying to get a specific design a cake and was turned away . Finally I was recommended by a friend to to see Emily at Bella Vida pastry . Im glad I did ,I have to say my goddaughter sweet 16 turned out so beautiful it was more then we expected we sent her a picture and she matched it to the tee, and it tasted amazing. And let me not forget to mention their very reasonable in their prices They will definitely get my business again.“
