Custom Cakes near South Richmond Hill, NY

“The only carvel in Queens that has a cookie monster option and it is the BEST. I am an ice cream feign. So i will drive for some ice cream and most definitely when my friends come into town I take them to this specific carvel (if they've never had carvel ice cream before) because I can ensure they will like it. The staff at this location is the best they are efficient, kind, and usually younger too which is so refreshing. Keep it up and please never get rid of the cookie monster !“

“Had an amazing first experience at Saint Michel Cafe. So friendly and attentive. Love the set up of the place so nostalgic and welcoming. Had the best strawberry matcha latte and my partner had a dulce de leche hōjicha. We had a great experience overall. Most definitely will return and hang out next time.“

“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’m honestly obsessed with these cookies. They are incredibly delicious and so appetizing. What I love the most is that I’m usually not into sweets at all, but these are just perfect.

They’re not overly sweet — just the right balance. The almond flavor is so rich and comforting, and the cherry adds this slight sour touch that makes everything come together beautifully. It’s such an amazing combination.

I genuinely fell in love with these cookies from the first bite. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for creating something this good — truly impressive!“

“Maria makes the best carrot cake, red velvet, trees leches, plain and almond croissants I’ve ever tasted. Her passion for pastry is simply unbeatable. This isn’t because I provide her with same day delivery service, but I’m speaking as her customer as well. Her pastries are crafted with arts and the taste speaks for itself. I’m very familiar with French pastries for far too many years, so mark my words, if you’re looking for authentic French pastries, Les Gateaux De Marie is the place to go.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I stopped in for a latte for the first time and was blown away by the ambience. This café is truly a hidden gem! The iced latte was perfect, and I was even treated to a delicious dulce de leche cupcake on the house. I’ll definitely be bringing everyone I know here.“

“Everything I’ve tried here has been delicious. The ham and cheese croissant was amazing even cold. The chocolate chip cookie had the perfect salty-sweet balance. I don’t even like blueberries, but their blueberry bun with cream cheese frosting was so good I had to pause. The blondie was soft and rich and just right.

It’s really hard to find a bakery where everything hits. This place does. You can tell there’s real care in the food. This isn’t just baking to bake, there’s love in it.“

“Capy’s cakes and desserts are absolutely stunning and delicious! I work with Uber Eats, and I can’t help but wonder — have you thought about offering delivery through the app? I’d love for the owner to reach out, as I think Capy would be a perfect fit and a huge hit with customers.“

“You made me this cake for my birthday and it is absolutely delicious..chocolate cake with cookie dough filling..OMG so good you will be making more 4 me lol..this cake had to weigh 10lbs no joke...absolutely amazing I love it thank you so much for putting in such detail.“

“Besides the beautiful presentation, these cakes taste amazing!! They are moist, fluffy and the perfect amount of sweetness. I ordered the yellow cake, triple chocolate and the strawberry swirl and I am in love!! I really appreciate that Gardner's Gourtment clearly makes completely homemade cakes and luscious frosting.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“This is my second time ordering with cake studio NYC. The cake is always beautifully decorated (similar to the inspi photos I have shared) and tasty too! Duana is prompt with any questions on the order and whole process is smooth. Highly recommend!“

“got four slices of cake to share with friends (the pistachio basque, black sesame soy milk, taro soy milk, and matcha yuzu) and was met with rave reviews! the pistachio and taro soy milk cakes were especially loved, but even the black sesame and matcha cakes stood out for their sophistication of flavor. highly rec!“

“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!“

“Okay, Forest Hills, how lucky are you to get your special treats from this place? Everything is so good! Not just cupcakes but a wonderful selection of desserts and Colombian pastries. Surprising flavors (Rose Lychee, Raspberry Champagne) as well as the usual suspects (red velvet, chocolate, vanilla), there’s something for everyone. The people who work there are as sweet as the cupcakes.“

“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! 😍“

“I have been in this bakery a few times it's conveniently located near Eastern parkway the 2 3 4 5 trains and Nostrand ave A C trains my wife and I purchased a birthday cake here for my mother in law delicious! And I ordered the cinnamon bun cupcakes and she had the chocolate chip. Great customer service when you walk in a big smile and welcome.“

“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 .“

“I was referred here by a friend and this place is seriously a 10/10. From the moment I called and told them I needed a cake within 24 hours, they were super friendly, professional, and helpful. I sent over a photo and explained what I wanted, and they nailed it.

I ordered the Mochaccino flavor, and it was honestly a 10/10. So good. I even traveled all the way from Manhattan because the price, customer service, design, and taste were totally worth it.

Shoutout to Blanca for answering all my questions and being amazing throughout the whole process. I will definitely be back. The birthday girl loved the cake inside and out!“

“very nice staff,love the milkshakes here!“

“Delicious ice cream!!🍦🍨🍧😊“

“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!“

“Layers Bakeshop is hands down my favorite bakery. The first time I ever had Layers was actually in Pakistan, so it already held a special place for me. Later on, a close friend introduced me to the U.S. locations and fun fact, she and her brother actually own the franchise. They’ve truly done an amazing job with every store so far.

I’ve been to about three Layers locations, and while the Elmont Layers Bakeshop location is the smallest one, it’s also the closest to me, which makes it my go-to. The quality, presentation, and consistency are always on point.

Honestly, I love almost everything from this bakery, but right now my absolute favorite is anything Lotus-flavored you really can’t go wrong with it. The desserts are rich, balanced, and never disappoint.

I also noticed they’ve started making candles, which is such a smart and creative addition to the brand. It just shows how much thought they put into expanding beyond desserts while keeping the same aesthetic and quality.

If you haven’t tried Layers yet, you’re seriously missing out. Highly recommend stopping by especially the Elmont location if you’re nearby.“

“Cakes are just as delicious as always !! So grateful for the Valencia Crew for organizing a trip to multiple cities in Florida !! So many Boricuas showing up at all locations ! Truly special ! Valencia is #1 ….. not hurry up and open up in Palm Beach !“

“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.“

“Workers are kind of awkward cuz they're all teens except for the manager, which is okay.
The ice cream is amazing though. And they piled that stuff on. I couldn't finish it and it took me half an hour to even get halfway through it.
I ordered a small vanilla cup with no toppings.
It's far cheaper than Cold Stone Creamery and almost has the same aspects.
If you loved Mr. Softee's ice cream growing up, those ice cream trucks always going around the block, than this ice cream is for you.“

“I frequent this location often with my children because my toddler LOVES their pistachio ice cream. She convinced me to try it and it really is that good. My favorite from this store is the coffee ice cream. Hits everytime. The store is very small but always looks clean. There’s not much organization when it comes to the line so they usually just ask “who’s next”. All workers that I’ve interacted with have been pleasant. I’ve never had a negative interaction with a worker so I’d say their customer service is great.

Parking: A lot of people double park. It’s paid metered parking and spots are usually taken.“

“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. ❤️“

“The best cortado around !! If you value an excellent cortado as much as I do this is your place ! It also have delicious treats . You can find whole cakes, the chocolate one is moist and perfect sweetness. Staff is friendly , couple of tables to sit . Everything is delicious and fresh“

“I ordered a sandwich to go it was tasty i asked for grilled chicken w/ no spice
And asked for cilantro the only thing was there was more veggie than protein it was overkill on the carrots next time i will ask for less veggies
Bread so fresh and crunchy
The place is nice tiny on the corner
I wish to come back for their desserts for sure“

“For my daughter's sweet 16, she insisted on a specific cake in a specific color and size. NYC Birthday Cakes made her dream come true! The order process was extremely easy and I was able to provide a swatch so that they could match the color as best as possible. (color matching fondant is not easy - I've made cakes myself but didn't have the time now) We only had 40 people and 4 layers (6:, 8", 10" & 12") would have been too much cake. So, they made the top layer and bottom layer with a cake form instead of cake. The two middle layers were red velvet with cream cheese frosting and the vanilla with chocolate mousse. They were absolutely delicious!! The cake was delivered to the venue on time and as promised. These are truly professionals and I strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a special cake! (FYI - we bought the topper on our own)“

“MCB made my 50th birthday cake and I have never eaten a more delicious cake. The cake itself was moist and flavorful and I have never had icing melt in my mouth before. I wish I lived closer so I could order from them more often.“

“I've been getting Marble Pound Cakes here regularly for the past year! I love everything about it! The employees are always kind too!“

“Traveleld From Boston To celebrate my 39 aniversary with Husband in the big apple 🍎 and On Saturday we End up at The Pastora bakery to grab some traditional Sweets pastry felt like home🇵🇷 Athmosphere was Warm♥️ the pastries 🥐 were fresh and the breakfast sandwich was Delicious! Thank you for the good service“

“Demi held it down at this Carvel location with superb service. She was the only staff there that day where there was 7+ customers and still went well and beyond for me when I was pre-ordering a birthday cake. The boss over the phone was also very kind with going through the ordering process and Demi made sure we get everything accurate and helped tailored what flavors, layers, size, designs, and so forth that was recommended. Demi made it super seamless and made sure I was satisfied with my order.
Medium square cake $32~ with edible image print out $4 with free writing and custom crunch toppings as well as border designs was such a great deal here.“

“I had a custom cake order made for my baby and the cake and cupcakes turned out amazing, it was so soft and flavorful, the decor and customer service was a 10/10 and would definitely recommend, they went above and beyond and I’m so grateful“

“Everything is delicious and fresh! Cookies, pies, cakes, pound cakes, cheesecakes, and the pastries. Holidays are extra special. I only go here whenever I bring something when visiting and everyone loves it. I buy extra for myself too cant resist. Hands down the best bakery I travel from a few towns away.“
