50 Best Bakeries near Scotch Plains

“Bakery is my long time favorite for years no matter where I move I will always come back for my cookies and our Birthday cakes Blessings to the owner“

“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.“

“Wow! So delighted at this amazing bakery in Westfield run by the most talented couple and now they have a new one in Morristown too! My son is so picky and adores their key lime pie, Boston Crème donuts and Snickerdoodle cookies ! And these are 5 star treats ! Enjoy and join their loyalty program too to save … what a gift to New Jersey ! 💙🩵“

“I finally got the chance to try Crumbl Cookies and I’m so glad I was able to try the lineup for this week. The cookies were delicious, Kentucky butter cake and sticky bun were my favorite. The pink velvet and Banana upside down cake were tasty as well. The staff was nice, and I didn’t have to wait long for my order even ordering ahead. One of selections ended up being sold out and the workers decided to give me a free cookie. I’ll definitely be back, I can’t wait for next’s week lineup.“

“La schiacciata e’ ottima, l’ambiente elegante ed accogliente. Golosi i panini, i dolci ed i croissant!“

“This place is officially my go to local bakery! Victoria and her mom Laurence have been nothing but kind and helpful each time I’ve went in. My friends and family raved about the triple chocolate cake i picked up for my sisters birthday and my best friend and i enjoy a quiet breakfast and cafe on the weekends! The decor is so welcoming and bright. It’s a great place to sit, and relax! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious pastries and French imports. It’s a piece of home for my mom, as well! 🇫🇷🥖🥐🥮🧁🎂💕“

“Just had the apple turnover, it was incredible.“

“One of my favorite bakeries from now on. Love the pastries, drinks and the crew service is very good as well.“

“We love the atmosphere, the delicious homemade soups, main dishes, and desserts at the lovely Friends Friend's Cafe :) the jazz evenings outdoors, the chess-playing and studying students & Mo, Josephine, and Hannah with the heart of gold for all furry friends who are welcome inside the cafe, and, of course, on the patio <3 <3 <3 Below is our Rover enjoying his doggie meal and a comfy bed at the cafe :)“

“Delicious cookies! Highly recommend!“

“Amazing Cinnamon Rolls. Perfectly baked dough, not over done. Extra Cinnamon, not the cheap stuff and plenty of sweet glaze for the top.“

“Ate there on their covered patio area. Just coffee and a sweet treat. Got some bread and cookies to bring home. Never disappoints.“

“amazing!!!!!!!! ;) so so good and so excited to find these on Sundays !“

“I ordered a graduation cake online. When I picked it up and saw it, it was so beautiful. It was the talk of the party! It was not like a typical dry bakery cake. It was so moist and delicious! It was ALL chocolate. I would highly recommend splurge bakery for your customized cake needs!“

“This cake was a true testament to baking done with love and intention, with so much precision and attention to detail. From the first bite, you could taste the difference that real, high-quality ingredients used , and how it literally melts in your mouth, great consistency and just the right amount of sweetness. The texture was soft and moist with smooth frosting, delicate decoration, and a beautiful presentation that arrived exactly on time. Thank you so much 🩵“

“Super busy on a Tuesday night. It was my first time inside and it was very confusing as to where to go and how to order- no one greeted us or anything which is a little odd. We figured it out and enjoyed our cookies. There was a pretty long wait“

“Had a last minute order of over 40+ cupcakes and the team did an amazing job making sure I got what I needed. The cake was SO moist. Would recommend. Ty, ladies!!“

“Dear Able Baker I heart you , staff always super friendly, best cookies I’ve ever had ❤️🤗“

“bought some of your cookies at the chocolate expo in Manchester! wish you guys had a place here. cookies are so fresh and moist. Delicious!!“

“Excellent allergy friendly bakery! It is awesome to know that a bakery with such an amazing selection is safe to eat for my kids while everyone else is enjoying the same desserts. Their breads are amazing by the way!! Great job two fields!!“

“Todo absolutamente todo, la mejor!“

“My wife is vegan and every time we come to NJ to visit family we have to visit the Cranford location. The atmosphere and all employees are very cordial and helpful. Definitely recommend to everyone vegan or not. Their tres leches cupcakes are the best!“

“We couldn’t have been happier with our wedding cake! Each layer was absolutely delicious and thoughtfully crafted: a vanilla cake with custard and fresh strawberries, a chocolate cake with cannoli filling, and a vanilla cake with mango mousse. Not only was it a stunning centerpiece with beautiful fall-inspired colors, but every bite was incredible. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about it! The team did an amazing job bringing our vision to life. Highly recommend this cake shop for any special occasion!“

“5 star for Philly Fluff alone! Aside from that, the staff was so friendly and helped me find just the right dessert for my T1D husband. KETO CHEESECAKE. It too was a big hit and had NO EFFECT on his sugar level. It is good to know that we can keep a fresh baked dessert on hand to keep a T1D satisfied! Thank you Natale's!“

“Delicious food and excellent service. Very nice staff!“

“From price quote, to cake pickup, to eating I had a phenomenal experience. I splurged for my 30th birthday for a custom cake. La Bon was affordable for what I wanted which was amazing. Their staff was incredibly sweet, professional, and all around pleasant. And the cake? Oh my God. I couldn't ask for a better outcome. I provided a reference photo and the result was an exact match. Flavor wise? Impeccable. I don't know what it is about these cakes but it was hands down the best cake I've ever had in my life. It was decadent but not too sweet (especially with black frosting, I was pleasantly surprised), perfectly piped frosting, and perfectly light and flavorful strawberries and cream filling. I will 100% be trusting all my future cakes to la bon from now on!“

“Great food. So far the best colombian food I ate in NJ.“

“I ordered cupcakes for as party favors for more Birthday party. Everyone loved them. Some guests had never heard of Gigi's before and were quite impressed. They offer a wide variety of flavors and they come in 3 sizes. I go there at least once as month sometimes twice. More than that is bad for waistline. lol“

“Great food and friendly service!!!“

“Definitely one of the best bakeries!! We went to multiple bakeries for our wedding cake tasting. Nothing compares to the quality and taste at Conca D’Oro. Our wedding guests are still asking where our cake was from. Juan was super helpful and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this bakery!!“

“Delicious empanadas, bread and pastry. They have vegan and vegetarian healthy options as well. ❤️“

“Brenda, who works the cashier at the Paris Baguette is seriously amazing! I went in last week during the afternoon rush, and despite the chaos, she was super friendly and helpful. It's not just that she's efficient at ringing people up; she actually makes you feel welcome.

I was having a tough day, and her cheerful attitude totally turned things around. She recommended the mochi donuts, which were delicious, by the way! You can tell she really enjoys her job and cares about the customers.

Honestly, in a world where customer service can sometimes be lacking, Brenda shines. She's a total asset to that Paris Baguette, and I'll definitely be back, not just for the pastries, but also for the great service!“

“My husband loves loves loves the cinnamon sugar churros. its an amazing dessert treat!“

“I've tried a couple of mochi donuts here and they are all amazing! Not too sweet and the flavors all hit the mark. I've recently stopped by and noticed they had Christmas themed donuts, which is think is so cute, they would be great to bring to a party or to gift to someone.“

“We where looking for a place to make my son’s perfect Mickey Mouse cake and when I Found Roxanna cakes on instagram and saw her work I knew I found the right place my son couldn’t stop looking at his cake he was touching it everyone loved the cake it was perfection and it tasted so good I provided a picture of what I wanted and definitely received exactly what I asked for.“

“I simply LOVE this place. It not only has the best vegan sandwiches and desserts, the hospitality is amazing. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. The only thing bad is that they are 45 minutes from me. I wish there was one closer to where I live. I would be going more often. I'm hoping one day they will become a franchise. I would definitely want to open a How Delish! ❤️“

“Best connoli cake! The staff are great“

“Best croissants in New York area. The chocolate croissant is to die for. Better than any in NYC. EJH“

“The best vegan cafe when you’re in the mood for a great scone and cup of coffee! They’re lovely people!“

“I ordered a bridal shower cake for my daughter and I’m so happy I chose Dorsi’s to bake it!! It was absolutely beautiful and taste even better!!! I highly recommend Dorsi’s for any of your specialty cake needs!!! Beautiful job! 👏👏👏“

“My hubby and I love coming here for yummy coffee and pastry. Unfortunately they don't offer gluten free options, but I did see sugar free cookies. I enjoyed a nice early morning coffee with my beautiful mother in law and hubby one morning. 💕 Service is great, too. Definitely recommend.“

“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 ordered a cake for my son’s baptism and couldn’t be happier with the result. The cake was exactly like the photo I provided, beautifully done, clean, and elegant. It also tasted amazing! The price was very reasonable for the quality and detail. I’m so glad I chose this baker and will definitely be ordering again for future events. Highly recommend!“

“The food is AMAZING and delicious, they have a place where you can sit and eat. All the staff is so kind here. If you're looking for a quality cafe, with trusted ingredients come stop by. Only thing that is challenging is finding parking.“

“LaBon made my granddaughters first birthday cake that needed to be eggless due to allergies. What a beautiful cake and she loved it! Thank you so much for making her day special!“

“We cannot recommend Fleur de Sel enough! A big ‘thank you’ for catering my daughter’s bridal shower this past weekend. The food and presentation were outstanding. Patricia and her staff were extremely kind and accommodating when we needed to postpone this event at the last minute in July. We are so grateful to have this wonderful bakery in Chatham!“

“great customer service! Just roll up before the gates and run inside with your paperwork. Even if the order is not already picked, they will tell you to back up to door number one, or two, and then they'll pick the order quickly! Very little waiting here! A pleasure!“

“Tasty Cinnamon and Good customer service 😋“

“Shop was clean, quiet, good atmosphere, tons of choices of baked goods and polite staff. We got the small Chocolate and Strawberry Custard cake. It was so tasty! Not too sweet, soft in consistency, great layering. If you get a custard cake, expect it to “drool?” since it’s mainly custard inside. Preferably finish it all at once. It was best fresh and almost just as enjoyable a day later; but I wouldn’t recommend storing it any longer.“
