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.“

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

“Yes, Cold Stone might be a franchise, but this location feels anything but ordinary thanks to Micheal.. the heart and soul of the shop! He’s there almost every day, always greeting customers with a warm smile and adding a personal, welcoming touch that makes you want to keep coming back. And YES, they have the famous CHOCO TACO everyone’s been raving about on TikTok! Just make sure to come early because they do sell out fast. Ice cream is great, service is even better. Micheal makes this spot feel like your neighborhood go-to.“

“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!“

“My daughter loved the cupcakes, and i loved their price as well as the decor and feel of the bakery. Home has changed lots since ive moved. The only thing that could be better was the person at the register, he was highly engaged in his phone so his responses/interaction was quick short, kind of like he didnt want to be bothered. Overall the place the is 😍“

“I work for a law firm in CA and we have an employee who works remotely in NY.. For our employee's birthday I wanted to choose a bakery close to her home and who was local. Stumbled upon Buttercup Bake Shop and they were so awesome! Totally worked with me and delivered the cupcakes with NO hassle. Needless to say our NY employee was super happy and LOVED the flavors and decorations of the cupcakes. ❤️“

“This bakery is awesome! The inside is adorable and the baked goods are amazing. We had a blueberry rosemary cheesecake kouign aman and it was one of the best pastries I’ve ever eaten.

There’s a few seats in the shop which was nice to enjoy our treats. Surprisingly not super busy on a Saturday morning but I can’t imagine that will last long!“

“Great cupcakes and excellent service!“

“Words cannot express how grateful I am and overly enjoyed with the service, the taste, and overall the customer service that me and my family received. I was so extremely nervous, but Gladys and her entire family made me feel secure on what I was looking for and what I was going to receive the communication with the delivery everything I couldn’t ask for anything more thank you so much. I will only be using their services“

“I was looking everywhere for a bakery that could do a matcha flavored birthday cake for my boyfriend’s birthday and the team at Les Gateaux de Marie was so amazing and accommodating. Everyone loved the cake and couldn’t stop talking about it, the cake was perfectly sweet, light and airy, and all of the staff were SO KIND. Will be back again and again! Thank you for making his birthday so special!“

“YUMMY, YUMMY AND DELICIOUS. Bring plenty of water and money. Don't go on an empty stomach.“

“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!“

“Small café, but very bright, clean, and airy. There was was a small loveseat, a couple barstools, one or two cafe tables with 2 seats, a bench with a cushion and 3 café tables out on the sidewalk. Came in about 1:30pm, and were greeted warmly. Almost all of the pastries were gone, but the cheese with fig danish and the plain croissant they had left were good. We also tried the matcha lemonade, strawberry matcha and a hot black sesame latte. I liked the sesame latte A LOT, the strawberry was good, and I personally hated the lemonade, but that is a personal preference thing. The good thing about it is it isn't too sweet, but it was heavy on the matcha, so it tasted like liquid grass to me. I definitely like nuttier sencha tea better. The prices were average for the area, and since everything is pricey now, it is what it is.

There were other patrons there, busily working and looked like they had been there for quite a while, which tells me it may be a good place to sit and focus for an hour or two.

My party of three sat outside and because it is located in a predominantly residential area, it was a nice place to sit since there aren't tons of pedestrians. There were a few bees/wasps though, so we had to leave after a bit(highly allergic). There were also mosquitos and lantern bugs around--I suspect there is some standing water on a roof nearby.

I will definitely walk over here again to get that sesame latte, and maybe stay and pretend looking productive. But I'll definitely come back.“

“All of their baked goods are absolutely incredible and never disappoint. I personally think their whips are overpriced for what they are, but I their baked goods are 100% worth it. Huge portions and always super fresh. I love sitting inside when it's not very busy.“

“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. 😋😋😋“

“my go to for my matcha antioxidant fix by the skatepark.“

“I live out of state, but when I visit my friends, I always find a huge joy coming here. The coffee is great, and the suggestions given by the owner herself are divine. It's always a 10/10! I will always recommend coming here and supporting a small business, especially one that makes you feel at home!“

“I went here when it was new and didn't find a lot to choose from (maybe they ran out already that time of day). Popped in recently since was in the area and there were a lot more buns/baked items to choose from. Prices are lower than some bakeries. Mochi donuts are $3; buy 2 get 1 free. Steamed buns were ok: tried the pork and veggie; and combo bun - with added quail egg, piece of sausage and shrimp.
Staff is helpful, and amiable.
Have tables/stools so good for a quick bite. No restroom.
Not far from Queens Boulevard so close to buses and Grand Ave/Newtown subway stop.“

“Best cannoli ever! And I love love love their black and white cookies. Perfection“

“I tried a few treats from Yummy Tummy’s Kitchen and everything was so fresh, delicious, and full of flavor! The cookie was soft and warm, the little pie was perfectly baked, and the cupcake was super moist with the creamiest frosting. You can taste the love in every bite.

What makes it even better is that this place is woman-owned, and the owner herself is the chef and baker behind all these amazing goodies. You can really feel her passion in the quality of the desserts.

The shop is cozy, the staff is friendly, and the prices are great for the quality.
Definitely one of my new favorite bakery spots — I’ll be back for sure! 💛🍪🧁✨“

“Hi,I want to share my experience with you,amazing environment, very friendly service, I tasted cheesecake,It was very tasty.Thank you!“

“Wow, Karla Jimenez cake was the best decision for our baby shower. The cake was an absolute dream especially for the photos. The pineapple cake was moist and delicious - many of our guests never had Dominican cake before and was wow’d by the flavors. Responsive and punctual. Coming back for all our future cake needs“

“It's simply a wonderful cafe with the best coffee I have ever tasted. Just about everything is authentically from Yemen. There Hibiscus juice is to die for and Yemen style lemonade is delicious. The atmosphere is inviting and people are sweet and kind!“

“I need to say that Renee and Carrie are amazing! Very amazing service, being able to be answered in French at the boutique was amazing! I drove twice in 2 days to grab cupcakes and cookies… I cannot say what’s my favourite out of the cupcake, the brownies, the cookies etc because everything was decadent and not too sweet. You taste the quality of the ingredients and the love they put while cooking them. The fact that Carrie was answering me while the business is close is a sign that she’s passionate and that she care about her client. They’re on the expensive side compared to other bakery, but once you compare you understand why… You taste the butter in everything! If you like some fluffy, moist, creamy cupcake this is your place… While planning my wedding, I’ve compared a few bakery and non are as good as this one… Thank you for the amazing experience and taste!“

“I love this place. Brooklyn Sweet Spot have the best bake goods. Blessings Kym!!!“

“Adorable (and delicious) cookies that were individually wrapped and given as favors. Highly recommend“

“Bread is always soooo yummy and flavorful! Favorite bread is the white concha and one that looks like a croissant but taste like hojaldra orangey flavor I loveeeee. Also the rosca the best ever. They’re not stingy with the sweet sugary part of the rosca there’s enough for all for the amount they add. The place is semi empty perfect for taking ur time in choosing ur bread. Oh and the peach 3leches slices are good.“

“Great local bakery. Their carrot cake and cheesecake is amazing. A great assortment of breads from focaccia to challah bread and many more. All freshly baked that day so everything you get is fresh. Also their pastries are buttery and delicious too“

“I got custom guava cupcakes with blue frosting and they were INCREDIBLE! So much guava in the center and they weren’t too sweet. The frosting created the perfect balance💜 They also gave us these special containers to pack the cupcakes individually, we took them on a 2 hr hike, unpacked them at the top and they were INTACT. Such care and attention to detail. HIGHLY recommend“

“This is a popular bakery store in Chinatown that has lots of bakery and confectionery items. They also sell few cooked dishes like steamed broccoli, pepper streak, chicken, tofu that are sold with white rice. They have bubble teas as well, but it’s powder based. We bought few of their bread items and egg tars.

The store looks pretty old. The menus are handwritten on paper, taped on the walls. There’s one table in the corner for guests to sit, but full of dirt. Despite the issues with the appearance, their food quality and taste keeps bringing lots of customers.“

“DeLillo Pastry Shop is an absolute gem in the heart of Little Italy in the Bronx! Every visit feels like stepping into a classic Italian café, where the aroma of fresh pastries and espresso fills the air. I always come here for their tiramisu, and it never disappoints—perfectly balanced, creamy, and full of rich espresso flavor.

The staff is always friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee and dessert. Whether you're craving traditional Italian pastries, cookies, or a cozy place to relax, DeLillo is a must-visit. Highly recommend!“

“My absolute favorite yellow cake 🎂 with chocolate 🍫 frosting taste homemade and made with love. Definitely, will be ordering from LaSweetsNY for my next celebration. Support small business and I enjoy buying Black. (A+). Met the owner yesterday. Though the store hours have changed to opening at 11am, she permitted to make my purchase. Ms. L, was welcoming, sincere and a precious soul. Thank you Ms. L. Verrie“

“My hubby and I popped in yesterday, and I am so glad we did. We bought a half-dozen cupcakes, and had fun picking out the flavors. (The options will make your mouth water!). He chose a few cookie dough cupcakes, while I got brownie, chocolate-covered strawberry, and vanilla with chocolate frosting cupcakes. I've only tasted the chocolate-covered strawberry one so far, and it was delicious. He didn't regret picking up multiple cookie dough cupcakes. We're looking forward to finishing our selections. Check this place out and get yourself a treat!“

“I waited the absolute last minute to order a cake for my daughter's 18th birthday and Maison de Gateaux did not disappoint. I showed them an inspiration photo less than 2 weeks before the event, chose the flavors and prayed it was beautiful and delicious! I was able to pick up the cake at 9AM when they first opened the day after the holiday and crossed my fingers. The cake was beautiful. No... It was simply STUNNING. It captured the color that I wanted for the cake and the simplicity of the design of it. My daughter loved the cake. It was also delicious (we ordered the lemon cake and cannoli; bottom and top tier respectively). It was also budget friendly. I got the 8" and 10" which was more than enough for sharing. Thank you Maison de Gateaux for being a part of my daughter's special day! more power to you.“

“I work for a law firm in CA and we have an employee who works remotely in NY.. For our employee's birthday I wanted to choose a bakery close to her home and who was local. Stumbled upon Buttercup Bake Shop and they were so awesome! Totally worked with me and delivered the cupcakes with NO hassle. Needless to say our NY employee was super happy and LOVED the flavors and decorations of the cupcakes. ❤️“
