Best cinnamon sticks anywhere! Friendly and sincere service too! Very bright and clean bakery with tons of options

There was a huge sign in the window that says, "free coffee with any purchase". I went in and made a purchase and asked for coffee. The sales girl acted like I asked for a bicycle. She looked confused and said, "No coffee." Not even an offer to make a pot. Such a bizarre interaction and false advertising. read more

I stopped by here with a friend today after we had lunch at Pickles and Rye Deli next door. I grew up in West Bloomfield, later moving to the Troy area and now I'm back in Farmington Hills, so I have been to Diamond Bakery but it's been a while. First off, if you dined at the deli recently (or maybe that day?), show your receipt you'll get 10% off. Secondly, if you use a credit card there is a 3% fee, which always annoys me, so I paid with cash. My friend had been talking up their chocolate chip hamantaschen, so I got one of those and a raspberry one, plus a black and white cookie. It's been many years since I've had hamantaschen, but theirs was pretty good. However, I was a little disappointed in the black and white cookie... I've had those from New York before and also from Trader Joe's and I thought the cookie here was just okay. That being said, everything else in their display case also looked really good, especially the homemade bagels and bagel sticks, so I will be back at some point to try more of the selection. Pricing was pretty fair as well, the hamantaschen was $1.90 each and the cookie was $3.50. read more

Diamond Bakery - Black and white cookie, raspberry hamantaschen, chocolate hamantaschen. - Bakeries Near Me - West Bloomfield, Michigan

We order from the Too Good To Go app for Diamond Bakery. We love their sprinkles cookies, black and white cookies, and the decorative shortbread cookies are all delicious. We always buy the Eclairs and Black & White cookies after we pick up our Too Good To Go order. The Eclairs are AMAZING! We can't pass them up. We received the rye bread once with our order, it freezes well & makes good toast with butter and jelly. We highly recommend this Bakery. read more

Delicious bake goods and a very friendly staff. Loved that Diamond offers GF 7 layer cake - a bonus

Things looked ok. It was around 10am and I got a rye bread. It tasted all right, the inside crumb had a nice bounce to it, but it was cold and somehow seemed more like yesterday's bread than today's. The seven layer cakes looked ok but not radiant, I didn't get any. The sweet and plain rolls looked interesting. The hamentashen had some interesting flavors. The big disappointment was the bow tie kichel. It looked really nice, there were big trays of it and it looked crisp, plump, and well sugared. I got a nice half pound and was all excited about it. It was fresh and crisp, great texture, but it smelled odd. I ate a piece slowly, trying to figure it out. Finally realized, there was a strong flavor of vanilla. Horrible. The squirrels got the rest of the batch. Kichel was always plain. There was a mild egginess, the sweetness from the surface sugar if you got the sugared version, but otherwise it was plain, so it went with everything. Imagine trying to eat vanilla flavored kichel with herring? I guess nowadays with all the fancy flavored coffees no one cares, or thinks everything has to be flavored, but the whole thing was spoiled for me. So, kichel lovers beware. read more

One of our very favorite bakeries! Their 7 layer cake is Mitch's favorite. And the cinnamon chocolate chip horn pastries delish. Convenient location with nearby parking. read more

Diamond Bakery - 7 layer cake - Bakeries Near Me - West Bloomfield, Michigan

I grew up coming here. This place is my childhood. We lived off their bread and basically ate nothing else. We loved their onion rolls, always a favorite to pair with hamburgers. They have one of the best seven layer cakes, if you have never tried one, it is a must! You will thank me later! But I came over here to get a box of their cookies for a party for my child. My kids love their little sprinkle cookies. That was their childhood, eating those little yummy bites of happiness. I got the variety of nonpareils, jimmies, and thumb print chocolate cookies. So good. This is not a fancy bakery. It is very simple and sells very specific products. Come here is you are interested in challah, bobka, hamantaschen, seven layer cake, or sprinkle cookies. They do not have late hours, so check the times before coming. read more

Diamond Bakery - a box full of colorful sprinkles - Bakeries Near Me - West Bloomfield, Michigan

I was thrilled to see that I could get a 7 layer cake sent to me in California. I ordered Monday after they closed, called on Tuesday to confirm, and got the cake on Thursday. I grew up near Star Bakery, and when my parents moved to West Bloomfield, I got my bakery fix at Diamond Bakery. It's the memorial date of their deaths, and it meant a lot that I could get a wonderful memory from home. It was delicious and arrived in perfect condition. Kudos to the owner, the bakers, and customer service. I could not be happier. read more

This bakery is no good ever since management changed. The recipes are different and the customer service is horrendous. I literally just overheard a conversation (on the telephone) of an employee telling a customer she was rude when the customer was upset about the fact that the employee told her "although you special ordered a bread, we either sold it or gave it to the owners because they were in earlier and they wanted it for their boys." So many bakeries with so many better choices and good business practices. read more

Glad I can review. I am so glad this bakery is not close to my home, I would get their special deserts with too much frequency!!!!!. They typically have two deserts that are to die for. One is a covered wagon, and the second is a ding dong. Either are great but I prefer the covered wagon. If you have ever had Sanders bumpy cake, the covered wagon desert is similar where it starts off with about the most moist fluffy, fudge, devils food cake available. Then a lop of about the best buttercream sits on top followed by the ooziest fudge topping. I have to say after the commercialization of Sanders (it was only in name, which are now no longer available) this desert tops the bumpy cake hands down. And that is saying a lot!!!!! The ding dong has the same ingredients but less buttercream, it's just like a Hostess ding dong but a tad larger and way better. They also make a roll up cake with the same ingredients. You want to be remembered at a party or gathering? Bring one of these cakes to the event!!!! Your friends will talk about it forever!!!! read more

Diamond bakery had the most flavorful, delicious baked goods. We purchased cookies there, seven layer cake, and some chocolate things that reminded me of a mini bumpy cake that was more delicious than any bumpy cake I've ever tasted. read more

This used to be my family's favorite Jewish bakery. But ever since it was sold it's completely gone down hill. Ordered a special Challah for the holidays. When I went to pick it up and it was pure chaos in the bakery, and the challah was nothing like the old ones we used to get even the seven layer cake was terrible. read more

Stale products and not just one or two I purchased a variety, 7 layer cake world famous for what ? Being dried out and sitting in the counter uncovered. read more

Saturday at 9 : 30 am and the showcases are empty. No New Yorkers and very limited choice of breads and cookies. 7 layer cake was fresh and excellent ,but will think twice before making the 20 minute drive next time. read more

I've loved this bakery for many years. It's been a staple in the community. They are under new ownership and after today's encounter, I won't be back. The 7 layer cake slices are a third of the size and cost the same. The owner was rude when I asked about it. read more

This bakery used to be wonderful but since it changed ownership, the baked goods are not as good as they used to be. Very disappointing. Part of what they should have purchased should have been the recipes. read more

Ever since the new ownership took over, Diamond Bakery has been fantastic. Always enjoy coming in for 7 Layer Cake and tea cookies. Highly recommend and a must visit if you are in town read more

This weekend my son and I were visiting in the area. To satisfy our sweet tooth we stopped at the Diamond Bakery. Everything in the display cases looked delicious. We ordered a seven-layer cake, sprinkle cookies and some doughnuts. The staff was courteous and helpful. When we got back to our hotel room and opened the boxes, we could not resist tasting all of the baked goods. My son said those were best doughnuts he ever had. I wish the 7-layer cake had more layers as it was that good. The sprinkle cookies brought back memories of eating those cookies with my grandma. We were told that the bakery will soon be shipping their baked goods anywhere in the U.S. We will be ordering when that happens. read more

If you just want sugar, this is that in many forms. Everything had the same boring flavor pallet. It taste like sugar, flour and skipped the butter or any depth. Decent textures and looks good so I will give them that. read more

This is your grandma's vintage bakery. They carry what you might expect, challah and other breads, mix & match small sugar cookies, and a selection of pastries. Nothing flashy or reminiscent of a food network confection, which is fine, I wasn't looking for that. My low rating reflects the service. I stopped in shortly after opening for a few dozen cookies for an open house. There were two people working and I wasn't acknowledged by either. The guy was walking around on the phone, and the lady only seemed to care about some elderly folks who were going in and out. After they left and I engaged her, she was still quite annoyed with taking my order, when I asked what size boxes they offered, she groaned and motioned to some across the counter. I just felt like no one cared for my business and maybe overall didn't enjoy working there. Maybe they rely on the business of their elderly regulars, but just not worth it to me. read more

The best Jewish bakery there is. Plain and simple. The ONLY place I've ever seen make a babka this way, and it's just incredible! Chunks of chocolate and the breads type of cake dough is what makes it. It's so good, and not found anywhere else. The sour cream chocolate chip cake is also just delicious. My other favorites here are the chocolate chip sugar horns, and the chocolate coffee cake. To be honest, I've never had anything bad here. They accept cash only, so beware. This is a classic old school Jewish bakery, done right. Plain and simple! This is the real deal! read more

It is incredible to see how a five star bakery goes to a one-Star bakery in less than a year Since the bakery was sold much of the baking is done offsite so that orders come from a different location if they come at all I just ordered a coffee cake with fruit on Tuesday for a Sunday morning pick up and I got a call at home that even though they put in the order the cake never arrived... and remember I paid for this order in advance. The owner will not speak to you and there is less and less product availability whether it's rolls cakes or even Challahs As a customer for over 30 years I am now forced to find an alternate bakery that has quality and consistency read more

I love this place. I love it winter, spring, summer and fall...but especially in summer - when they have the old English D, Comerica Park and baseball shaped cookies. At Superbowl time, they make cookies that represent each team's helmets. Football cookies, football brownies. They also make fun smiley faced cookies...in the summer they have sunglasses. Their royal icing is awesome. They will make special order breads, mini and regular, in all kinds of shapes and sizes - spiders, alligators, jack o'lanterns. You name it, they'll probably make it. I've never purchased their bread, but am pretty sure I could fall in love with their Challah. Holl-a! read more

Love the new products. Everything was so good. Appreciate the mix of old and new. Still a DIAMOND!!! read more

One problem I have with this place is that they don't have a menu or even labels or signs that show you what the items are. They have all of these great looking baked goods behind the glass but there's no way to tell what they are without asking which got tiresome after a while. I ended up getting a few chocolate chip cookies, a black and white and an oatmeal raisin cookie. Someone else mentioned it in their review how the cookies have this floury after taste to them that I didn't really enjoy. The chocolate chip cookie was dry, the oatmeal cookie was a bit more moist but still average at best, and the black and white was the best but still had that floury taste going on. I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll be coming back here. read more

I want to like this bakery, and their products are good, but I just had a miserable experience with their "customer service" and I wonder whether I will ever go back. When I arrived, there was one other customer in the store and three people behind the counter. As soon as the other customer finished, the person serving him went into the back room and the other two ignored me for five minutes. Finally, one of them yelled into the back that there was a customer, and it sounded like they started arguing about who would have to serve me. I left. Maybe they just don't like me. read more

As I have been here before I know it is going to be hit and miss and today was a miss. I was there at noon and all they had was seven layer, no eclairs, no covered wagons, no marble cake, no napoleon's but have not had those in many years. I have to guess we are expected to buy the things that they did have because nobody else wants them either. There was another customer asking the same questions. I only purchased cherry turnovers that were not even as good as I can get at the local supermarket, sad. Not sure why it posts me as Palm Coast, Fl but this is not the case. read more

Just came to this spot today. I'm from San Diego and I've been to a lot of bakeries in my life. This one by far is the best. The different options will make you go crazy. The service was super great. All the ladies there were very nice and they had great recommendations. Super affordable. If you are in Michigan you should go....or you're missing out read more

Everything in this place has changed since it changed hands. Every time we get a chocolate chip loaf it's stale. No date on the package. Nothing else is good. The seven layer cake is the only thing that's half decent. There are much better bakeries around. read more

Haven't been here in a long, long time but it's not what I remember. Cookies and hamentashens taste like the same dough. Hamentashens are way too doughy, no filling. Didn't have the 7 layer cake or breads. Maybe they are better. read more

Diamond Bake Shop makes the BEST 7-layer cakes in the world!! I am SO grateful for them, as I wanted to order a 7-layer for my boyfriend to celebrate a special occasion, and the wonderful staff at Diamond worked with me to overnight mail a frozen 7-layer cake to me. The process was extremely simple and fast AND affordable! The cake came right on time, in perfect condition, and it was the best surprise and tasted so SO delicious. I am so grateful for the fantastic team at Diamond for working with me and getting me the cake ASAP - it is the best thing I've eaten in months! THANK YOU! read more

Just picked up a 7 layer cake today. It was delicious. I highly recommend. Outstanding customer service. I will be a customer for life.

My buddy Seth on Sunday a 7 layer cake for a mutual friend's birthday party. OMG was it delicious. We were at a restaurant with fifteen people. Everyone loved the cake. We gave a piece to our server he came back and asked where we got it from and talked about how good it was. I am going to be visiting this place soon. read more

Love this place- every time I visit WB I get a Smiley Face Cookie now! :) read more

This is the best bakery, well, ever. I come from Florida to get Flakey Rolls, Dinner Rolls Sprinkle Cookies and Seven Layer Cake, which I take back to Florida completely frozen. We have nothing like this in South Florida. read more

This was my first visit to that bakery. Customer service was good for a busy Saturday. I was looking for cookies or brownies to share with family. I went with the brownies and they were delicious, nothing fancy but moist, flavorful and not too rich/sweet. read more

I have been going here since I was just an egg in my mother's ovaries. Nothing makes you feel more Jewish than being inside and seeing signs that advertise the need for more mahjong players or for a competition. The 7 layer cake is where my heart lives and it comes in all the sizes, perfect for any occasion. read more

This review would be 3.5 stars. But i rounded up. 'Cause I'm nice. So my mother sent me here to pick up the bread for her famous thanksgiving stuffing- an onion dotted challah called "Onion Cobblestone". While my moms stuffing is fantastic, I believe most of that is due to this wonderfully moist, flavorful, oniony loaf. We ordered 4 loaves and it came to 13.60- $3.40 / loaf. I don't think this bread is on their regular rotation, so we special ordered it a few days ago and I picked it up today. I walked in and looked around for a minute and was greeted by the owner (I think- she seemed it after talking with her a few minutes). Along the walls were large cases filled with pastries, cookies, cakes and brownies. I'm not quite sure how to describe how I find the typical bakery cookie to be- definitely made with shortening and not butter (yech) kind of floury, sugary fat that has been baked. A let down, in any case. And this style of cookie was what filled a majority of the cases. I asked her what they are known for and she said their seven layer cake hands down. Along with the bread I also got a slice of the cake, a black and white cookie, and a mini bumpy cake kinda thingy. The cake was very, very good. Seven layers of spongy, yellow gateau sandwiching a lovely chocolate mousse-esque filling enrobed on three sides by a thick, fudgey frosting. I say "esque" because I know me some chocolate mousse, and it was more like a very light frosting rather than a mousse. The cookie was just meh- not very flavorful and very much akin to the typical bakery cookie I described above. The mini bumpy cake thingy was WHOA. Super thick fudgey frosting covering a rectangle of moist chocolate cake which was generously slathered with buttercream. I am SOOOO picky when it comes to buttercream frostings, and I have to say this one was kind of a let down. Definitely a shortening base and way too little vanilla. The fudge on top made the whole little thing worth while as it kept the cake underneath super moist and helped flavor the other components that were lacking. We've been coming here for the cobblestone bread for years and will for years to come. I may even be back before next thanksgiving to get another piece of the 7 layer cake! read more
