“Son super ricos los pasteles“

“I go for the to go application. My husband likes cakes. We are from Uruguay and we go far from Newark, NJ to get about 3 bags. They serve us very well and the owner was kind and gave us a pudding and we ate it at the holidays. Visit the place and try their cakes“

“Such a wonderful bakery with unique flavors. We ordered a Victorian Sponge Cake with Raspberry filling and the whipped cream topping. The cake was gorgeous, tasted amazing and was incredibly light- not overly sweet or heavy. Clio was so helpful in answering any questions I had before ordering and the prices are on par with other local bakeries, if not a bit cheaper.

They also have a storefront that is great to stop by as well. Highly recommend!“

“My partner wanted one gift for his birthday - Dominican Cake with Pineapple Jam...to say the cake was exceptional, is an understatement. DELICIOSO y RIQUÍSIMO! It tasted even better a second time when. We are excited to head back to the bakery for a treat and for the next celebration we have as a family. Thank you Karla and team for responding so quickly and making his birthday wish come true! -V&W“

“Pedi un cake para 20 personas y en tamaño me ofrecen uno alto y el que me llegó fue“

“Great cupcakes and excellent service!“

“I'll definitely be back. The three non-dairy flavors i tried were all great, but I went with the P.O.G and another that was similar to almond joy. The owner was friendly and the seating area was comfortable. There's also outdoor seating available!“

“This review is a long time coming. Bill, made one of the best cakes I've ever seen for the US Open. Such a pleasure to work with and his creation was amazing! Would definitely use his services again.“

“A great ice cream shop open late to satisfy your munchies and late night sweet tooth cravings. I could not be happier with what i got, i think it was the strawberry cheesecake of some sort. It was really nice though, and they definitely do not skimp on the toppings!!“

“Esteban is THE BEST. The arepas are great, sure. But come and sit down and chat with the owner who will take the best care of you, make you feel like family, and make you laugh a little too. Great little spot in the LES for a late night bite. Don’t sleep on this place!

Vegetarian options: Vegana, Gato, Quiches, Turnovers“

“OMG! I am not exaggerating when I say the cake I received was not short of amazing. Chocolate Devil's Food with Raspberry buttercream. Tangy Raspberry preserves made from scratch by Jaclyn as well between the layers. Everyone who ate a piece of my birthday cake could not be more satisfied with the level of artistry in the decoration as well as the execution of the taste of the cake itself. I don't think I can go back to buying store bought cakes. They would just fail in comparison!“

“Amazing customer service, amazing cakes..so happy that we found you.“

“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. I always appreciate when business's uses basic, clean (real food) ingredients. If you have an idea for a unique cake and want to support small business, I would highly recommend!“

“We selected The Hudson Cakery Cakery for our wedding and were thrilled with the taste, service, and gorgeous, classic look of our 3-tiered cake. They were friendly pros with a simple process to obtain samples. We highly recommend them for your wedding or event!“

“A bakery that truly understands perfection! I cannot stop raving about the pastries and cakes from this place. The flavors are so rich and the textures so perfectly delectable. What sets this bakery apart is the evident love and passion that goes into every single creation. And when you enter, the aroma in the store is simply intoxicating. The staff is always welcoming and offers exceptional customer service. You can count on finding fresh and delightful treats every single time. Do yourself a favor and indulge in their amazing selection of pastries!“

“Got the popular pistachio raspberry cake slice and the mango passion fruit mousse cake. They were both great. The cake slice looks slim but is quite filling. The mango passionfruit mousse had a coconut base which was a little too sweet but the tanginess from the mousse balanced it well. Overall, it’s a decent spot to go to for those sweet cravings.“

“This is my Favorite bakery, if you ever are looking for the Best Dominican Cake , Tres leches or Brownies, this is the place to go to. I love the aesthetic of the store and the customer service is also amazing. And last but not least don’t forget to try their chocolate chip cookies my kids favorite.“

“Excellent place!!! Everything is top- notch!!! Highly recommended!“

“Great cake and the home of the Biggie Smalls Cookie!“

“I've always liked Lady M for their quality cakes. The location at American Dream is just as good.

This time, I tried the Dubai Chocolate Mille Crepe. It was very enjoyable – rich chocolate taste and well-made, just like I expected from them.

It's a solid spot in the mall if you want a really good dessert. I was happy with the Dubai Chocolate Mille Crepe and would recommend stopping by Lady M there.“

“What can I say? It’s the namesake. And it’s worthy of the name.

Café Saint-Michel serves some of the most interesting coffee drinks in the neighborhood—my favorite is the black sesame latte. Deep, mellow, a little mysterious. The pastries rotate seasonally, but the rhubarb custard danish with orange-laminated dough. No words. Buttery folds that melt into each other like silk in heat.

When I bite into the center, the true middle, it hits: thin flaky crust, thick custard, tart rhubarb exploding across tongue and cheek. It reminds me of the first month of falling for someone you’ll eventually love. That exact bite. Divine craving, new flavors, heady aromas. Intoxicating. Fleeting. There’s only ever one bite like that. The danish builds to it. My last relationship started there. One perfect mouthful, then it was all downhill, like heli-skiing a black diamond at Snowbird. Exhilarating. Dangerously consuming. Then gone in a rush of chilled air.

After the pastry, I usually sip my black sesame latte on the walk home. It’s mellow and wide. A gentle counterpoint to all that sweetness. It reminds me of what happens after love. When the sugar fades and you’re left with yourself again. Still standing. Still full, somehow. The calm expanse of a vista from solid ground.

Café Saint-Michel is like that. A place to touch base. A place to remember how to come back to yourself.“

“Pinhas from Lestis was the best. He took personally my order on the phone, directed me, gave advice on my choices. He worked with me and cooperated in a way that I felt confident. I ordered many mini pastries. Some were customized, Lestis did a wonderful job! They were tasty and definitely wow factor at my daughter’s engagement party. Thank you!“

“Absolutely amazing. Menu changes daily so you're never bored with their options. They have great desserts and their savory pastries are to die for.“

“As a fat man and a traveler, I've had pastries from all over the world. And these are as good as Ive had anywhere. And the eggs were cooked perfectly on my sandwich. And no one ever cooks eggs perfectly. 5 Stars!“

“The owner Erika was a pleasure to work with. Super helpful with choosing the right size cake. Designed the cake better than the picture I sent. The cross and rosary were so realistic it’s hard to believe it’s sugar. Not only was it a gorgeous cake but so fresh and delicious!“

“This cake literally saved my birthday.
I have loved cake since I was young but got recently diagnosed with celiac. For my 25th birthday I really wanted something special. She was able to put wording on my cake and it tasted so gooood holy moly!
This is one if not the best cake I’ve ever had in my life. I will absolutely be back. 10000/10“

“Worth the mile and a half walk!!! I love supporting GF bakeries and this one didn’t disappoint!! I especially loved the berry pastry bar (I apologize for the vague description) and the lemon poppyseed mini Bundt. SO GOOD and the service was excellent.“

“Smokey Fitzgerald loves the treats. ��Smokey Approves!!“

“Had our wedding cake done by Cake Studio NYC and cannot overstate how great the entire experience was. Easy to work with, incredibly responsive, and was able to accommodate the order with just a few days turnaround. The cake was beautiful and absolutely delicious beyond our wildest dreams. So grateful to Duana for helping to make our wedding day so memorable!“

“Have been meaning to try this place out and it was great. Tried four different cupcakes, mini carrot loaf and two cookies. My family loved it all. So pretty too. Can’t wait to go back.“

“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.

Everyone came up to me and told me the cake was wonderful, absolutely delicious. Thank you so much, Pedro! You are so talented!! It was beautiful and really good!!!“

“Love them cookies 🍪 the best“

“Quality products and great customer service!“

“My sister and I got 2 bingsoos (black sesame and rice cake), a sweet potato latte, and a pistachio dacquoise. They were all very delicious and unique.
The sweet potato latte has a strong sweet potato taste, which satisfies the soul and the dacquoise was very soft and chewy. The bingsoos was also very unique. It kind of had a dry(?) flake to it, but I liked the texture of it. I do wish there was more red bean in it, but it still hit the spot.
Would love to come back and try more of their pastries.“

“My sister was having a beach chic baby shower because her and her husband do not want to know the gender. She wanted cupcakes that looked like succulents that also taste delicious. I immediately thought of Huascar and asked if he could do it. I traveled to Florida with them and they were a hit. I can’t describe how beautiful they look and I can tell you the taste of theses cupcakes were out of this world. Everyone was contacting my sister afterwards to see where she’d got them. 😋😋😋“

“Randy did an amazing job with our son's custom camper-themed cake. Our kid was beyond thrilled. Thank you for being so accommodating and wonderful! You really made his birthday special.“

“The ice cream here is amazing!
I tried the vanilla and chocolate soft serve twist—so smooth, creamy, and perfectly sweet. You can keep eating it without feeling overwhelmed. The shop itself has a nostalgic, old-school vibe and is always busy with families and kids stopping by. If you’re in the neighborhood, this place is definitely worth a stop to cool down with a classic cone!“

“The Best!! Love Averything!! Very loyal to their customers👍“

“Nikki's cakes, cookies, decor everything is all so amazing. We got our wedding cake from her in addition to various celebration cakes past couple of years and could not recommend her enough. Her flavors are so unique and tasty - everyone complimented us on our cake at the wedding!“

“Makes such amazing cakes! So happy with her creation for my daughter’s baby shower.“

“I have used Nerwan for a couple of specialty cakes. Very talented, very accommodating, very delicious, and spot on service. This young entrepreneur went from working from home to a beautiful little location. It is a pleasure to contribute to her rise in this field, so give her a shot for your baking needs or just stop by and try her products you certainly will be pleasantly surprised and pleasantly satisfied.“

Coconut Cream

This bakery is very easy to find as you step off the NYC Ferry.

In addition to looking and tasting phenomenal, it was a really great deal!

The pastry was light and fluffy with a perfect ratio of creamy. The coconut toppings added a touch of sweetness to the dessert.“

“EVERYTHING……they are very professional and an expert in their field of work. I’ve been going to LGVB for years and they have NEVER disappointed me or my family. Anything you want they got it and make sure your vision is reflected thru whatever product you purchase. Betsy and Roy are the best along with their entire staff.“
