    Red velvet $30 Moist and not overly sweet
    Cindy C.

    Ordered a red velvet cake for my son's 3rd birthday . It was moist and delicious. One of the best ones we've had. I've gotten in the Bronx in little Italy before but their quality has gone down a bit i feel like even though the price is less there, it used to be my go To for their cakes

    I would have preferred a bigger selection of Italian cookies but still the ones that were available were fresh and delicious. The pignoli cookies were my favorite as they were soft & chewy! Equally as good, the rainbow and shortbread cookies were delicious. I was tempted to try the cakes but I had already selected too many cookies! I'll def try those next time around.

    Irish soda bread

    Irish soda bread yesterday was somehow missing an ingredient because it was flat, dense and dry! For 3 tiny connolis $5. that doesn't make sense, to much for minis! It was tasty but cream seemed like it was slightly low in quality! I don't live around there but was dining in Skinflints and visited the bakery. The young lady was welcoming and the twin tower cake was interesting and a cool story!!

    Carrot Cake [$5]
    Felisa F.

    I stopped by and bought, what I think, was the last piece of carrot cake [$5]. It was actually really light and not overly sweet. There's a perfect amount of cream cheese frosting on top and in the layers. The raisins were juicy and tart. This cake was really amazing. Bay Ridge Bakery is the epitome of an old school Brooklyn bakery. Lots of neon florescent lighting and display cases of butter cookies and cake. There's also a whole section devoted to gluten free goods. I would love to have another slice of carrot cake..not right now but sometime soon.

    My favorite bakery in Bay Ridge! I love this place. My belt doesn't but I do. The deserts here are always so good. I never bring these pastries somewhere where I don't hear "Oh that's good!" You really can't go wrong here with a choice, and you have plenty of choice. I've never had a problem with the service. The women at the register are always nice knowledgeable, and help you out. This reminds me of the bakeries I grew up with in the city. Nice local people who know what they're doing, good food, and like the radio set to the oldies station in the background. It's a vibe.

    This place has had a chokehold on me since 2018 when I had a bite of their Chocolate Mousse cake. I have been coming here religiously for years. This bakery is an absolute local gem. I will drive out of my way to get a cake from them on a special occasion if I have to. The pastries are to die for. Presentation is beautiful and professional with cute chocolate buttons and glaze. The taste of everything is amazing and the sweets are not too expensive. This is a classic bakery with very high quality cakes. My favorite pastries are the german chocolate cake, chocolate mousse cake and the pineapple coconut. Love this little bakery!!

    Everything is tasty and sweet. Every cake that we have tasted so far is awesome. The cookies tastes great too.

    Butter cookies

    Stumbled upon this cute bakery 2 or 3 years ago and this has been a go-to every time I'm in Bay Ridge. The butter cookies are my absolute favorite. They have a light crunch and chocolate dipped end with sprinkles. This is a nice family owned business and each time I've visited I was always met with a sweet and courteous worker. I'll be back!

    $6 Mini Strawberry Cheesecake
    Ga Hing C.

    Very nice service! Got their mini strawberry cheesecake and it was a bit pricy ($6). The texture was not as creamy as I like it, felt like those no bake cheesecakes (jello-pudding consistency) but still good.

    Almond creme fruit cake~Very good
    Mei C.

    This year's office potluck was kept small and simple. Someone brought in this wonderfully decorated cake from Bay ridge Bakery and it was the highlight of my day. The cake was super moist with a fluff of lite creme and almond filling. I couldn't get enough of this delicious cake.. The fruit toppings were all drenched in sugar glaze; wasn't too thrill with that though. Bakery offers lots of varieties of pastries and cookies as well. Will definitely stop by to purchase their sweets.

    Black Forest cake
    Reham M.

    I'm updating my review, unfortunately from 5 stars to 1 star. I honestly don't know what went wrong with this bakery but something happened and their cakes are not the same anymore. I've always loved their Black Forest cake and I tried several other cakes and they were all really good and moist and just had the right amount of buttercream that made the cake so delicious. A couple of months ago I was nearby so I went in and ordered a black forest as always, when I got back home and tried it, the cake was dry and definitely has been in the fridge for so long and wasn't fresh. The next day, the leftovers of that cake smelled weird, rotten or something, I threw it away and didn't enjoy the whole thing. I thought oh well, maybe cuz of COVID they are not baking daily as the demand is not high. Yesterday was my son's birthday and I went there a day before and pre-ordered a cake, informed the employee who's working there that my last experience was awful and cake was dry , " please make sure that it'll be baked fresh and it's moist" she told me not to worry and took my order. In the birthday party, when we cut the cake and I tried it, I was soooo disappointed of how DRY the cake was! It's for sure not fresh and not baked for this occasion though I pre-ordered a day before! Also their buttercream filling was waaaay buttery (if that's a word) that you can't eat it, I had to throw a lot of the filling as you feel you're eating raw butter (noticed the guests did the same as well) because it's way too much! Not enjoyable at all. Last pic (the darker one) is from yesterday's cake.

    It was my turn to bring the sweets. We had a playdate, and this time we were invited to Katie's place. Originally stopped by Monaco's but found out they were closed on Mondays, so immediately went on Yelp to look for another resort and found Bay Ridge Bakery. Didn't see any labels of the cakes and sweets in the counter so I picked with my eyes. The Strawberry Cheesecakes were decadent. There was an orange flavored cake that was very refreshing. The chocolate slice was rich. I also got a round shaped cake, or was it more of a cookie, not too sure but it was sure ex-creamy good. I really didn't get the names of the sweets so you guys would have to reference with the pictures I took.

    Radio Bakery is a very popular bakery in Brooklyn. This has been my second time and each time there…read morewas a line outside, however it moves quickly and the space inside is very small. Even though there is a line, you do not feel rushed or pressured to order quickly. On this visit we ordered plain croissant, chocolate croissant-fresh out of the oven, rhubarb croissant, black forest pastry and brown butter corn cake. The chocolate croissant was amazing. It is triple chocolate and cocoa powder is in the dough. It is filled with milk and dark chocolate, so creamy. The plain croissant was flaky and light. The brown butter corn cake was crispy and caramelized on the outside and soft and moist. The Black Forest croissant is a seasonal offering. It is made with their Triple Chocolate Croissant filled with chocolate cake and sour cherries and topped with mascarpone cream , Rhubarb & Custard Croissant . It is tart and sweet. The rhubarb is roasted and complimented with sweet vanilla custard. They all were excellent. Each were about $8. Highly recommend and don't let the line deter you .

    I came during a weekday at like 11 and there was still a line but it is what it is. Because it's so…read morebusy I feel a bit rushed when I go here. It's also difficult to see all the items since everyone is packed in a line even when you get into the store. The food itself: - cardamom bun was yummy, a bit too cardamom forward though. 3.5/5 - the pb and J croissant was cool, a bit too rich for my liking but I admire how different it was and I actually had to save this one for the next day and it was still good so 4/5
