Martha's is a staple bakery in Queens, now expanded into other boroughs, and they've done…read moreincredibly well over the years maintaining quality and consistency in their desserts. There's usually a line of some length during peak hours and especially around the holidays. You can tell by the sheer volume of baked goods and cakes available in their window displays that they sell a lot daily. This location is on the main drag of the little downtown section of Forest Hills, the baked goods in the front window display connect to a tall and long glass counter along the left side of the store that extends almost to the back. At the back middle and along the right side of the wall there's seating for about two dozen people at small cafe tables. They carry an assortment of traditional cakes (full and sliced), pies, cookies, pastries, cheesecakes, cupcakes, ice cream and coffee/tea drinks. A wide variety of flavors in each, so you're bound to find something sweet to satisfy most here. They are a classic bakery so from what I can tell, they don't carry items that are gluten, dairy or nut free. I've purchased their apple pie, fruit tart, berry napoleon, red velvet and chocolate fudge cakes from this or other locations in the past and they're all solid choices for desserts to share with a larger group, though I find a lot of their cake options to be on the richer side. My most recent encounter with their cakes came in the form of a slice of their seven layer cake $9.95 which is thin layers of yellow cake alternating with chocolate cream mmm pretty tasty, and their caramel cake $9.95 which had a layer of chocolate cake in the middle, sandwiched by caramel cream and white cake on either side. The latter had a pronounced caramel flavor that was enjoyable though a bit too much cream for me. My preference would be for their chocolate cakes over other cake flavors here. Their apple pie is one of my favorite apple pies anywhere tho!

They also have great and reasonably priced sourdough loaves. I wanted to give their latte a try because I'd been disappointed by the coffee in the area. I liked the richness of the Iced Latte here and would choose this spot for coffee over the other nearby cafes in the area. The service was quick, and I love the wooden furniture for a slightly rustic atmosphere.

I only tried the Chinese pastries. They're on the flaky side, so I recommend eating them on an actual tray, a bowl, or with some paper underneath because they're pretty delicate and crumbly. Some of them are spongy, like this cake thing, and others are flaky, like a cookie. I recommend 85° Bakery Café for a quick pit stop. The service is pretty nice, and the ambience is very Chinese. You can't go wrong with that.

However, the staff were also super warm and accommodating, and the quality of the items we got (gluten free vanilla and chocolate cupcakes) was great. The actual cake bases of both types were moist and flavorful. I could've gone with a little less frosting and more cake, but it made for a very aesthetically pleasing topping with the vibrant colors, sprinkles, and glitter. I kept getting strong hints of rose flavor from the pink frosting on the chocolate cupcakes so I'm not sure if they infused it with that. Overall, a great little spot, and really a savior for procrastinators looking for sweet goodies to take to a gathering when other last-minute ideas fall through!

We ordered the Greek Yogurt Berry Danish and the Pizza Baguette. The danish had a flaky, buttery pastry with a creamy yogurt filling and fresh berries that balanced the sweetness nicely. The pizza baguette was warm, cheesy, and flavorful with a generous amount of toppings--definitely a satisfying savory option. For drinks, we tried the Mango Smoothie and the Pistachio Cloud Latte. The mango smoothie wasn't thick, but it had a fresh, natural mango flavor that was refreshing and not overly sweet. The pistachio cloud latte was my favorite--it had a rich, nutty pistachio flavor with a creamy cloud topping that made every sip delicious. The café is clean, charming, and has a welcoming atmosphere. There are so many pastries and breads to choose from that we'll definitely be back to try more. A great addition to the Forest Hills neighborhood!
