I ordered ten dozen cupcakes to share at the Garden State Film Festival for my friend's birthday! They even "reserved " one dozen especially for us to enjoy together later with sprinkles and "Happy Birthday" messages! We made a million friends that day and shared them with the staff at the Berkeley Oceanfront- who were thrilled! The cakes were luscious and moist - and apropos to their name - as sweet and wonderful as you could ever hope a cupcake to be! We got churro, red velvet, chocolate sundae, eclair, chocolate raspberry, sprinkles, coconut and a half dozen other flavors - each more sumptuous than the last! Stop your search now and get these treats for your friends and guests. I promise you'll be very glad you did

We ordered a custom cake from here as a recommendation through another bakery we originally planned…read moreto go with but werent availible. The cake we were ordered was a custom printed image on cake. First we aimed for a smaller size than we requested to go bigger. When we received the cake it had bubbles on surface some letters were chopped off and it had a line in the middle. It looked very bad and completely unusable. Had no idea of either of this until she dropped it off and when I called after seeing the cake and asking about these issues she said it was because I asked for bigger size. No update was made no solution was offer whatsoever. It was very upsetting. The cake looked awful and we paid just under $300.for it I would not recommend this vendor for custom items.

Jessica has such delicious and unique flavors that made it so difficult to choose which one we wanted. Luckily, we were able to choose two different flavors (one for each tier).

We also asked for something very simple and cost friendly and she worked with our budget while still making a gorgeous cake. Thanks for everything:)

The Scone Pony in Spring Lake has a cute ambiance and even better scones…read more The Scone Pony is more of a grab and go location for fresh baked pastries like scones, cookies, and muffins. I purchased five scones and each one was better than the last. Some of the flavors we tried were: blueberry, chocolate chip, cinnamon chip, vanilla bean, and funfetti. My personal favorites were the chocolate chip and funfetti; and my husband loved the blueberry. The service is always friendly and they do take call ahead orders. My only complaint is that they are closed Monday - Wednesday. Pros: delicious fresh baked scones Cons: limited days open Overall, I highly recommend stopping at The Scone Pony for a delicious pastry.

The crumb cake is a huge portion and comes with or without a delicate glaze. A thick layer of cinnamon crumbs adorn this light cake base. Very rich and buttery. The scones are all delicious with just the right consistency. Moist and flavorful we had the cinnamon which came with tiny cinnamon chips and the blueberry lemon which had a great lemony flavor along with sweet blueberries. Stop in for a real treat.

Great cold brew.

Yesterday I purchased eight brownies for over $30 from this bakery for a birthday celebration at work. At that price point, I expected something fresh, rich, and worthy of being brought to a group. What I got instead were stale, dry brownies that tasted like they had been sitting out for days. It was honestly embarrassing to serve them. They were noticeably old and completely underwhelming, especially for a bakery that positions itself as a premium spot. If you're charging luxury prices, the product needs to match. Freshness should be the absolute bare minimum, and unfortunately, that wasn't even close here. I won't be returning, and I definitely wouldn't recommend this place for anything you're bringing to an event.

One item was a cheesesteak. Seems simple, right? Well, ordering a meat item with a vegan cheese was waaaay too much for her. Literally couldn't wrap her head around it, we had to explain it like she was from another country. After a few minutes, we threw the complication of putting mushrooms on it. No mushrooms came on the cheesesteak, but tons of unordered peppers and onions. The person who got it in our party took ten minutes to make sure the onions and peppers were off, but even then, the flavor was so peppery and onion-y that you couldn't taste the already small amount of steak. But the kicker was the pizza order. Getting a large pie, we began telling the topping we wanted...only to get like four ingredients into the list to suddenly, rudely, be told they don't do that many toppings, it will ruin the pizza. (Scooby Doo head shaking WHAAA?!) Holy sacrificing your profit margin , Batman! Aren't they in business to sell what the customer wants? Couldn't find a way to maybe put the extra stuff we wanted on the side, then we could put it on later? It's mind boggling that the owners and managers don't put some kind of warning about that...seems like then you'd have a fallback for that occurring...but whotf does that, on any level? I guess the crust crumbles if too many toppings are chosen. The food is good, kinda unique. That said, so is having someone being rude in a service-oriented job. Read the other reviews, this feels to be a common element in people's experiences. Five stars for food, one for the multiple times (three different) I've had this happen here. Three overall seems fair, if not generous.

I had to have gone at least 8 times already and I don't know how I've yet to leave a review. The tea room transforms you to another place with the rotating themes (Harry Potter, Wicked, Witch Black Hat Society, Peter Rabbit to name a few) and refreshing takes on classic teas & baked goods. Tea is never ending and it tastes divine, always freshly brewed at your table upon ordering. Ever tea cup is unique and every theme hosted has a pre-set menu and the staff are always knowledgeable about the tea served and proactive about dietary restrictions or allergies. The owner also comes out during every event to greet and thank her customers. While it is not the cheapest option, is does offer a unique experience. Highly recommend for a friends and family alike.
