“The vintage cake did a phenomal job with my sons first birthday cake and dessert. The artistry on the cake directly matched my theme for the party which was customized. We received so many compliments. I will be ordering from them again and again. THANK YOU!!“

“Visited here on a recommendation from a couple of people and I am SO happy I did!!! I may or may not have waited 45 minutes as it was a holiday weekend (eek!) but with how delicious everything was I'd do it all over again. The store is small, so only a handful of people can comfortably fit in there at a time.

I got so many things because I was too excited. My must trys are the cream puffs, cinnamon roll, glazed croissants, and potato turnover (think croissant dough stuffed with samosa filling!!). The cardamom bun was lightly sweet and unique, similar to the warm spices of a chai. The only thing I was disappointed in was the chocolate chip cookie, which had a crunchy texture instead of a soft and chewy one, but that's personal preference.

Despite being incredibly busy the staff was kind, accommodating, and I never once felt like I was being rushed. They made sure to answer any questions I had about the pastries and baked goods.

Would 10000% come back again! :)“

“I highly recommend Confections of a Rock$tar! Hands down the BEST cupcakes around!“

“I come here almost once a week with friends. It's our new favorite place. The food is delicious whether we get sandwiches or pastries, and the coffee is very good. The employees are always nice and willing to help. If you haven't tried Paris Baguette you should stop in and give it a try.“

“BEST BAKERY AROUND!!!! Ordered a custom cake for our daughter in law’s baby sprinkle. I can’t rave about it enough!! It was better than I could of imagined!! Thank you Matt for a beautiful delicious cake. Everyone was and still is raving about it!!!“

“I just moved into the neighborhood and found this delicious gem not far from home. Fresh pastry, great coffee choices, and espresso on request. Staff are friendly. Highly recommend!“

“A few years ago, I began the search to find a good cake/baking supply store. Michaels is OK for last minute items but I wanted a “Go To” place. When I went to the internet, Shore Cake Supply was the 1st one to pop up. I live in North Jersey so it’s an hour or so drive for me BUT I drove there and had a “me” shopping spree. I’ve taken a class or two and even suggested to Jennifer that I wouldn’t be opposed to her opening a second location in North Jersey 😉. All I can say is just go there. You WON’T be disappointed. They are friendly, kind, helpful and MOST importantly.. honest! Oh, and I would travel as far as needed to go there. ❤️“

“I love cinnamon buns. When I say that I love them, it’s an unhealthy love. These are the very best that I’ve ever had! They’re consistently delicious and never, ever disappoint. Service is super friendly. BEYOND worth the stop!!!“

“My husband Rory said that his family has shopped at The Macaroon shop for decades, but I had no idea. I was researching gluten free options and The Macaroon shop has so many delicious options. The staff is so helpful in choosing the best option for your occasion, everyone is so friendly and Clair is #1. If you are looking for a gluten free bakery, look no further.“

“Every beach day deserves a sweet ending.

After an incredible day near the Jersey Shore, my sister and I were looking for one last stop before heading back to North Jersey a place where we could grab something sweet for the ride home. Once again, Google pointed us in the right direction, leading us to Sweet in Belmar.

From the moment we walked through the door, we knew we had found something special.

The bakery sits in a charming little part of town, and inside was everything we didn’t know we were looking for. Between the beautifully decorated cupcakes and the nostalgic candy that instantly took us back to childhood, we couldn’t help but smile as we looked around.

The experience became even sweeter thanks to the owners. We had the pleasure of meeting the mother and daughter team, who were incredibly kind and genuinely excited to share the story behind their family bakery. We even learned they once lived in Delaware before returning to New Jersey to open their dream business. It’s always refreshing to meet people who pour so much love into what they do.

Of course, we couldn’t leave empty handed.

We picked up a Happy Birthday chocolate cupcake, a lemon cupcake, a red velvet cupcake, a princess cupcake, a strawberry crunch cupcake, and a mermaid cupcake.

The red velvet was my personal favorite rich, moist, and perfectly balanced. My sister absolutely loved the lemon cupcake. We also enjoyed the strawberry filled cupcake, and while we both wished it had just a little more cake to match the delicious strawberry filling and frosting, the flavor itself was wonderful.

As two people who grew up loving neighborhood bakeries, we’re always searching for places that remind us why local bakeries are so special. Sweet delivered exactly that. It wasn’t just about the cupcakes it was about the warmth, the conversation, the family atmosphere, and the obvious pride they take in every item they create.

If you find yourself in Belmar and you’re craving a cupcake, nostalgic candy, or simply want to support a wonderful family owned bakery, make this one of your stops.

We’ll absolutely be back. Some sweet treats are worth making the trip for, and Sweet definitely earned a place on our list.“

“Zeynep is amazing!! She baked an absolutely stunning first birthday cake for my son’s’s birthday. It was a 3-tiered teddy bear-themed cake, and she did a fabulous job!! She was a pleasure to work with, and I’d highly highly recommend her.“

“If you are looking for a custom cake that looks amazing and tastes delicious, I highly recommend Cups & Cakes in Rumson. Denise and her team created a wonderful cake for our daughter with her college logo/High School grad. Everybody loved it! They go above and beyond to make your vision a reality! Thanks, Denise!“

“Delicious breads, pastries, cookies and coffee!“

“So happy you guys reopened, a staple of my childhood! Best bagels at the Jersey Shore hands down, and now they offer delicious homemade spreads! I got the mini with Veggie cream cheese and that will be in my weekend rotation from now on. Also the entire place is sparkling clean. I can't believe its the same place. Bravo!!

Vegetarian options: Limitless veggie options!“

“Kosher bakery with everything you can think of. They offer cakes, cookies, bread, challah, pastries etc... and even sell pizza and sushi. This bakery is the go to bakery in this town and is extremely popular. The pi,za and sushi can have very long waits in the summer especially during peak hours.

Parking: Easy to find parking on street on regular days. During peak season parking can be rough.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly“

“These cookies are so easy to prepare. They start out as frozen balls of cookie dough that you arrange on the included parchment paper then bake! After just 15 minutes, you have the perfect chocolate chip cookie. Moist and chewy with melted chips inside and a crisp, golden cookie finish on the outside. Delicious and made right here in NJ. Buy local, eat deliciousness!“

“I wanted to come on here and let you know that the Middletown location has an AMAZING General Manager, Tricia. I ordered a specific birthday Bundt cake online for my niece’s birthday who was coming to visit me and I requested to have it delivered since I was busy prepping her favorite dinner. To my surprise when the delivery arrived I received a Halloween decorated cake. I called the store which is when i spoke with Tricia. She handled my issue with such impeccable customer service and resolved it immediately. Tricia, you went above and beyond and for that alone you will forever have me as customer at your Middletown, NJ location. I appreciated everything you did for me!! Nothing Bundt Cakes I hope you recognize what an asset you have on your Team.“

“Had cookies made for my sisters 60th Birthday they were adorable.. sunflowers. Dani was pleasant personable and did exactly what I wanted as per cookie designs. The cookies were wrapped in clear cellophane bags and were yummy! 😋“

“There's a new guy in charge! The guy with the glasses and does the cooking, he is legit and doesn't forget anything. He's very cool.

These bad reviews were from a year ago when they had different workers and yes, they were horrible.

But these new workers are awesome!“

“I was picking up my mom’s birthday order and mine today. I’m so pleased! They called me in advance to let me know they were out of stock of part of my order. Very attentive. Then when I went there for pick up around 1:15pm today, a girl named (hopefully I heard it correctly) Carrie helped me with everything which was a relief because it’s my first time visiting this place. Great service! Thank you“

“Cupcakes and Baked goods were Absolutely Delicious and the presentation was beautiful for my grandsons 1st Birthday Party. Great Job!! We will definitely use you again in the future.“

“Such great staff and delicious pretzels!“

“Best bagels in the area!! Hands down!!“

“This is a little mall area that has a plethora of shops and businesses. Not the place to go if you are looking for something of everything, but there’s a ShopRite here that is pretty good. Not a bad place if you live in the area. It is accessible and parking is OK, even on crowded weekends.“

“Great place to shop for fresh frozen food“

“What a wonderful experience I had unexpectedly today stopping in here while shopping with my daughter. I
Didn’t expect to buy anything but I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food and the reasonable prices. I’m very discriminating when ordering at “Italian Specialty Shops “ because of working in the 5 boroughs of the City. This place is a family on gem with personable owners and workers ! I’ll will be back! Go here!!!“
