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.“

Their menu is limited if you are planning to dine in, however, it is quite reliable and consistent. It is pure comfort food.

If you are not that adventurous, I highly recommend their empanadas de carne (beef and potatoes) and pan de bono (cheese bread). Those are usually the favorites of any picky eaters that join us 😁“

“Drove past the sign saying Nothing Bundt Cakes and thought that if this turned out to be a bakery selling nothing but bundt cakes then this would make for a pricelessly bad pun. Had to visit... and they sell nothing but artisanal bundt cakes. Entire cakes and individuals baked fresh daily. Not supermarket processed but pretty moist and dense if not exactly homemade. Very easy and friendly grab and go reasonably priced. Got the seasonal pumpkin one around Thanksgiving which was like a modified carrot cake.“

“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“

“Absolutely the best bagel there is. Each one no matter the flavor is a delight. And their food that they put on the bagel is delicious. Get there before 3;30 PM if you want sliced cheese because they close the slicer at 3;30. I know if I get there at 3;32 PM the slicer is off. So I get tuna fish instead and it’s about as good as it gets. The staff is friendly and do a good job. What a place!“

“Excellent bakery.I think the best!“

“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!“

“Excelente servicio y delicioso pan y los postres, recomendado 100 por 100 el mejor pan de beyonne fresco y caliente.“

“I literally ran into the shop & ask if they had any small cakes? Yes, he said for how many ppl? I had no idea the stored @ 3. I go there after 3 & he was there & the cake was stunning for my daughter’s 30th bday! I highly recommend Edo’s! Thank u so much“

“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 travel 191 miles each way to visit friends and procure a shipment of exceptional cookies from Cookie Jar. Although we are originally from New York and now reside in the South, we maintain that their product is unmatched. Attempts to replicate their cookies have proven unsuccessful, as their unique quality is attributed to the distinctive New York water and the expertise of their bakers.“

“Wish had menu or weekly display of what available during week or daily“

“Todo absolutamente todo, la mejor!“

“I had a party at my office and the bean pies, butternut squash pies, peach cobbler were a hit. I usually don't eat other people banana pudding cause nobody makes it better than my mom, but Pure Love banana pudding was DELICIOUS!!!!!!“

“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!!“

“We worked with Grace for my daughter’s first birthday cake, the theme was amalfi coast and lemons. I was blown away with how stunning the cake turned out AND delicious it was!! Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting and asking where we got it from. She turned my design idea to life and was so, so pleasant to work with. Their baked goods are also super delicious! Highly recommend her and can’t wait to work with her again! Thank you so much Sweet Life!“
