Custom Cakes near Howard Beach, NY

“Super great place. The place gives off a good vibe as you walk in, has music playing and the store is well kept. The employees are friendly and serves in a good amount of time. The ice cream tastes amazing, and I really like the taste. This place is my go to ice cream place.“

“Seeing my specially themed cake (Chocolate Chocolate Cake, consisting of Chocolate Cake, chocolate pudding, chocolate frosting), was a pleasant surprise. With my background in herbology, I think ByClio Bakery did a commendable job. They patiently listened to what vision was expected during the ordering process (I grow my own fruits and vegetables, including edible flowers), The cake's flowers (Dahlia / Marigold / Calendula /Snapdragon / Craspedia / Chrysanthemum just to identify a few) were edible and evoked a summer vibe, with flavors that matched its attractive appearance. Her honesty influenced my review; she explained the carefully wrapped sunflowers stems used as a finishing touch for the garden theme were not edible. The remaining ingredients were fresh and flavorful. The Mocha had a rich chocolate pudding layer and moist cake, the moose like outer layer was light and whipped, indulging in a second slice did not result in excessive sweetness.“

“I seriously can’t say enough good things about this bakery! The second I walked in, I was already obsessed with how cute and cozy it was. The aesthetic is absolutely beautiful, and honestly, I wanted to move in. 😂 You can tell everyone who works there puts so much love and hard work into everything they make. The cakes are actual works of art—I almost felt guilty cutting into mine… almost. 😅 They looked incredible and somehow tasted even better. The staff was so friendly and welcoming that it felt like they genuinely wanted you there, which is rare these days. If you’re looking for a bakery that’ll make your taste buds happy and your camera roll even happier, this is the place. The chocolate is that damn good! Just be warned… you’ll probably leave with more treats than you planned. (No regrets though!)“

“Really pretty and delicious sweets 🫶 the chocolate chip cookie was yummy, had a nice texture, and a perfect salty-sweet-chocolate flavor. The carrot cake (which was gluten free too btw) was so yum! Would love to try more (especially the mini cakes)“

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

“Tony is the best barista, this place has the best unique flavors of coffee, best atmosphere to look at art while you wait for your coffee 🖤🖤

Tony recommended the Black Sesame Latte, and it will make you a life long customer.“

“Great cupcakes and excellent service!“

“ tried their pistachio soft serve ice cream. Not overly sweet. They have regular ice cream and other types of soft serve. Lots of toppings to choose from. There are ice cream cakes for sale too.

server was friendly

mostly a takeout place with a couple of benches to sit outside“

“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.“

“The most creative, beautiful and delicious cakes EVER! You will not be disappointed - I promise! Since discovering JM, I will drive 2 1/2 hours to get a cake for special occasions..I’ve been doing this for 4 years and never disappointed Gorgeous cake designs and exotic fillings - truly appreciated by everyone. Whenever I bring 1 or even 3 cakes (each with a different theme) - the crowd is in awe and the recipients never want to cut it because the cakes are honestly that beautiful and everyone is in awe. Crystal is an absolute gem and sooooo helpful with every order. I simply love her (happy birthday again Crystal) HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“I was a bride from a distance and used this bakery for my wedding day, and I’m so glad I did! Their cupcakes were absolutely decadent—so delicious you truly couldn’t stop eating them. The frosting was light and not overly heavy, and the cake itself was hands-down the best. Everything tasted fresh, rich, and perfectly made. I would recommend them to anyone looking for wedding desserts or cupcakes that wow your guests!“

“The customer service is truly exceptional, you come here to relax and appreciate a cappuccino. The desserts are really such a compliment to any day. The neighborhood is so much better for this local brick and mortar gem. Always looking
forward to my next trip🌷“

“Red Gate Bakery is an experience that brings me back to loving life when it gets me down, when a hangover breaks me and/or when i want to experience heaven on earth. These unique concoctions are a once in a lifetime experience, unless you visit them weekly, which is recommended. While other bakeries get a lot of fame, these desserts are perfectly balanced so that you can eat them without feeling over-sugared. Go here. Be happy. You're welcome.“

“I can finally have birthday cake again!
I'm lactose intolerant and am on a low-fodmap diet! I haven't been able to get birthday cake I can actually eat for several years now! I'm sooooo glad I found you guys!
The lady at the counter was super nice and showed me what pastries you had. I'm definitely coming back again next time I need a treat!“

“These desserts were scrumptious!“

“Multi-sweet is an INCREDIBLE cake shop and the owner Amber is so sweet! We ordered a two tier cake for our great gatsby themed wedding (matcha / yuzu and black sesame / taro) and WOW did she deliver! The decoration was incredible and it tasted even better!! So moist and fluffy, not too sweet but so flavorful. I'm very picky with my black sesame because most places don't get the potency right but this was one of the best cakes i've ever had! We tried 5-6 of their flavors and everything is delicious so you really cannot go wrong.

For everyone who's had a bad experience with frozen cakes it may likely due to not giving it enough time to defrost. When we first ordered an 8 inch cake for our friend's birthday lunch. We picked up the cake she made the night before at 11am and didn't give it enough time to defrost. However after we let the cake sit all day to defrost, the cake ended up being so delicious we decided to go with multisweet for our wedding.

If you do decide to cater multisweet for your wedding I would recommend having her come onsite with catering and bring the cake. We used uber courier and while the cake arrived in perfect shape with no problem from multisweet's end, there was stress coordinating with the uber courier the day of.

Ultimately all of our guests were raving about the cake & wanted to bring slices home, we'll definitely be ordering here many more times!“

“Hey, I just wanted to send a huge thank you again for the amazing cookies you made for the baby shower. ✨️ Seriously, everyone was raving about them 😍 Not only were they absolutely adorable with all the baby-themed shapes and perfect blue and white icing, but they tasted incredible too. 😋 It was my first time having someone make customized cookies, and you totally exceeded my expectations. 👏🏻🫶🏻 You can really tell how much care and talent you put into your work, and it made the baby shower even more special. 😊 Once again, thank you for everything 💜🥰“

“Love them cookies 🍪 the best“

“Very delicious egg biscuit sandwich. I am still thinking about the biscuit. They have some pastry options. I had a vegan muffin and the best vegan muffin I have ever had. Not a big food menu. A few crossaints, loaf slices, brownie and 2 types of muffins“

“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 ordered a gluten-free cake for my son’s 4th birthday, and it was an absolute hit! Not only was it delicious, but every guest at the party kept asking where I got it from. The cake was moist, flavorful, and beautifully presented—proof that gluten-free can be just as indulgent as any other cake. It made the celebration extra special, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a cake that everyone can enjoy, regardless of dietary restrictions“

“The Pyramid ! I must say, our anniversary celebration was nothing short of spectacular! The concept, presentation, and flavors were all outstanding, and the luxurious products added a lovely touch. Thank you for making this day so special!🥂🥰“

“These desserts were scrumptious!“

“Esta muy rico la comida quesadillas de birria 🙈🙈🙈delicioso“

“Maria’s Sans Rival cake lives up to the meaning of its name, undoubtedly unrivaled. It was made of sheets of chewy meringue loaded with crunchy cashew nuts, alternating with thick layers of “melt-in-your mouth” buttercream. Glad it was not too sweet that I was able to enjoy large servings of this delightful dessert. Great with coffee or tea.“

“They make an addictive challah, I nicknamed it the crack-cocaine challah. You need a twelve step program after having that or their incredible pastries once. Five stars is not enough for this bakery, at least 100 stars.“

“The gelato here tastes AMAZING! The staff is really nice, and you can sample flavors. I ordered the super big size which isn’t big to me with the raspberry cheesecake, Reese’s, and deep chocolate gelatos. They were all delicious, but the deep chocolate was by far the best! The deep chocolate gelato was the best chocolate gelato I’ve ever had thus far! Potions are very small so I recommend ordering the largest size. I highly recommend Chillato in Whitestone!“

“Everybody Eats is incredible! My daughter has celiac disease, and for her 16th birthday I wanted to find a bakery that could make her a cake without compromising on taste or quality. Everybody Eats absolutely understood the assignment.

Pedro is an incredibly kind and talented baker who delivered a cake that exceeded every expectation. You can tell these cakes are made with love, care, and intention. The chocolate cake was honestly one of the best cakes I’ve ever had. The frosting was perfectly balanced—not overly sweet—and the cake itself was unbelievably moist and rich.

The entire party loved it, and no one would have guessed it was gluten-free. That’s the true mark of an exceptional bakery.

If you or someone in your family has celiac disease or needs to avoid gluten, Everybody Eats is a must-try. Knowing there’s no need to worry about cross-contamination gave us complete peace of mind, allowing everyone to simply enjoy the celebration.

This will absolutely be our go-to bakery for birthdays and special occasions going forward. Thank you, Pedro, for making my daughter’s sweet 16 even more memorable!“

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

“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.“

“Luckybird Cakes made our wedding cake and it could not have been more perfect! Not only was the cake so delicious ( our guests are still contacting us a week later to ask if there are any leftovers) but it was gorgeous and delivered on time. Amy even matched the flowers on the cake to my wedding bouquet!“

“I loved their delightfully rich gluten-free chocolate walnut cookie. The owner was knowledgeable about dietary restrictions and kindly walked me through their GF options, and noted that they can make pretty much anything GF if you order a dozen, including donuts and cinnamon buns. I’ll be back soon 🍪“

“Man… this is one of the best businesses in existence. I’ve gotten various cakes from them over the years , and every single time they have been consistently delicious, rich, and exuberant. The tres leches is not too sweet, and the frosting complements the cake as well. It’s overall a very well rounded cake.

The service is spectacular as well — they can prepare an order for you in no time, and will decorate it and ensure that it is beautiful. All the while being as friendly as possible.

And the price, is more than fair.

It truly is rare nowadays to find businesses who are in it to be good business owners, and I find this bakery to be the cream of the crop. I love them .“

“Please don’t hesitate to have your cake done at this Bakery they will not disappoint!! You will have amazing cake art and the flavors and texture of the cake will be amazing!! I love customer service and over all I appreciate and respect the talent this bakery I came in with different pieces and they put together my vision ❤️ I will for ever be grateful for my daughter sweet 16 cake.“

“I wish I could give Jessica and the amazing team at Carvel in Woodside more than 5 stars! They always come through with amazing designs and beautiful cakes whenever we need. Most recently I surprised my son's class with Lunar new year ice cream cups and they were so beautiful! Everyone was blown away. Thank you as always for being a wonderful community member, for having the best ice cream and for bringing smiles to kids and adults alike! 😍“

“Gracias BonBon Bakery por el cake maravilloso para mi boda, me lo entregaron perfecto a tiempo, recibí muchos complementos de mis invitados de lo delicioso que estaba, el relleno de guava y dulce de leche fue en éxito total! Siempre hago mis órdenes con confianza 🙏“

“The best ubeflan cake we’ve tasted. Moist and the flan is so creamy. Will definitely order again. Good communication with Euneka. Highly recommended! 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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!“

“Everything offered is delicious and beautiful“

“Amazing place, bread is awesome, cakes are great and the service is always top notch. Vinny is a true angel, he made an awesome cake for my son and they even helped me out to the car with it. I highly recommend this place.“

“I ordered my wedding cake from this lovely place. It was a delicious experience to say the least. The staff is friendly and the pastry wizard is just that. I gave her a picture that I wish I could up load and not only did she replicate the exact design but the cake itself literally melted on our mouths. It was so light and fluffy my "husband" couldn't wait a year to eat the top. If you live anywhere in Brooklyn and have need of a baker this place is worth the drive. Trust you won't be disappointed💃🏿“

“I’m so glad I found this wonderful neighborhood bakery, it’s my go-to spot for pastries and cakes. I brought one of their cakes to work for my coworker’s birthday and it was a huge hit! Their iced coffee is also so good. They’re always friendly and welcoming, great all around spot.“

“Nikki made us the most wild and wonderful cake for our greenhouse wedding. We loved watching the delicate florals come together on the day amongst our friends and family.“

“very nice staff,love the milkshakes here!“

“I can not recommend one thing in particular!! Everything is amazingly delicious, even tastier and fresher that I found in Romania’ cofetarii ! Visited past weekend from DC and had a hard time deciding over what to buy. Got almost one of most of them and now I wish I bought more. For me, the best bakery in US!“

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

“I called them at 4pm on a Friday asked about a tiramisu cake for my son’s girlfriend. They did not have it available but promised they would have one fresh for me on Saturday morning and they did not disappoint! It was the most moist yet airy perfect texture perfect sweetness cake EVER! Delicious and beautiful. ❤️“

“Ladybird made our wedding cake, and it was absolutely delicious!! Melanie is a culinary sorcerer! She worked closely with us and beautifully realized an absolutely stunning design that was majestic in person. It was everything we wanted and more. Our wedding guests were amazed at the beauty, freshness, and scrumptiousness of the cake. Can't recommend this remarkable bakery enough!“

“Delicious ice cream!!🍦🍨🍧😊“
