    Pistachio cake
    Christine C.

    Really cute bakery and cake shop. The inside is really pretty. Comfy chairs and couches. Cake is also pretty good. It is on the sweeter end of desserts.

    Coconut Bread Pudding this is the 3rd time I have ordered this. I really like it. Honesty there isn't much of a coconut flavor but I still love it! Vanilla bean Bombolini ok so this looks like a donut but it really isn't. its like a combo of bread and donut lol. I would probably order it again

    Flan and vanilla crème brûlée cake

    I love Iva's sweet parlor! I've never been to the actual restaurant and only ordered off of Uber eats. They always have something tasty to choose from for example mason jar, cakes, and cupcakes. Lots of delicious treats to choose from. Everything arrives wrapped very well for travel, which is appreciated. They typically arrive pretty fast after I order and I would definitely love to check out the parlor in person one day if I'm in the immediate area.

    My friend and I were looking for a bakery after we finished brunch on a Sunday afternoon. We checked what was in our immediate area and saw this bakery. This place was a like a diamond in the rough based on the surrounding area outside. As soon as you walk in, you smell the yummy baked good and enjoy the beautiful design of the shop. The staff were very friendly and helpful as we tried to decide what sweet treat we would indulge. There were tons of baked goods to choose from, cheesecake, fruit tarts, ice-cream, croissants and much more. There were about three tables with seats to sit inside and the green furniture with gold accents definitely stood out. I decided on the brownie with some hot tea because it was freezing outside. My brownie was very rich and as much as I love sweets, I wish the chocolate was just tad bit less sweet. My friend had the bread pudding which tasted amazing. It had the right amount of sweetness, was light and very fulfilling. This is definitely a bakery I would return to and check out some other goodies.

    I did an online delivery on a milkshake and creme brûlée and to my surprise both of the milkshake and crème brûlée are not the same compared to the pictures on the menu. The pictures on the menu looked appealing and fancy but when you get it, it looks really plain. The crème brûlée sits in a gold tin foil and it is really small. I thought it was going to be a bigger size. Also the milkshake was 75% filled in a plastic container. It was not filled to the top and was too sugary. The whip cream melted and there was none of it when the food arrived. I thought the food would taste and look great because of the bag the food arrived in. It was a nice paper bag that's reusable with the store logo sticker on it.

    Vegan Lemon raspberry cheesecake and the signature red velvet.
    Zoe L.

    This was pretty good! I ordered the vegan lemon raspberry cheesecake and the signature red velvet. Delicious!! Also, can we talk about the presentation of the red velvet? So pretty! Both were delicious but fit different flavor profiles. If you're in the mood for something a little more tart, less sweet and with some tang, I'd go for the cheese cake. If you'd like something sweeter and more full figured, go for the red velvet! As much as both were good, it was too sweet for me. However, simply because what I had was so good and was presented so well, I'll be ordering something different, in hopes that it will be less sweet than what I previously have had. Overall, I definitely recommend but make sure you bring a sweet tooth! Otherwise, it may be too sweet for you, the way it was for me.

    moldy guava turnover

    Placed an order tonight for several items. Did not receive the vanilla bean bombolini and when I tried calling, nobody answered the number. Also received.a moldy guava turnover. I ordered from here because of the good reviews. Maybe the food is better if you order earlier in the day. Disappointed

    Donuts
    Erika P.

    Ordered via Uber eats at work & we were pleasantly surprised with the deserts we bought. The donuts are definitely worth trying - light and fluffy without being overly sweet. The strawberry shortcake was also tasty and packaged in such a cute way. I didn't try the brownie but I heard good things about it and same for the Apple turnover. Would love to go in person one day and check out the shop!

    Tres leche cake in a jar
    Selena M.

    The tres leche cake in a jar was like soup. The cake portion had dissolved. It felt like this was left in the fridge for over a week.

    Half eaten ham and cheese croissant; sugar donut.
    Dianne R.

    OMG. Ordered for the first time ever this morning and I am not disappointed! So truth is, I've tasted the Tres Leches cake from here, but did not know that until today. My coworker who is usually the one who orders birthday cakes for staff shared with me that it's from Iva's that she gets the cakes! So hands down, the Tres Leches has always slapped. Today when I took initiative in ordering the cake though, I ordered some stuff for myself. The ham & cheese croissant and the sugar donut. Looking at some of the negative reviews about freshness, I cannot relate! These pastries were FRESSSSHHH. The croissant was crispy yet fluffy and buttery. OMG. Perfection! The donut was soft, sugary and delicious. Both things were great and I know when we cut into that cake later, it will not disappoint either! Definitely will order from here again!

We came by the day before Mother's Day, so they had pre decorated Mother's Day cakes. You can also place an order. Service is quick and friendly. We initially planned on getting a Strawberry Shortcake, as that seemed to be the cake to get. However, we opted for the Cheesecake, because we were able to add fresh strawberries (and whipped cream) on top! I'm not a fan of whipped cream, so I avoided that, but everyone seemed to enjoy. It had a good creamy texture and was not too sweet. The strawberries were indeed fresh. The pound cake was soft and airy. The vanilla flavor comes through. I will have to try the Marbled version next time! Note: Cash Only! A regular customer ordered the tiramisu cake; said it was the best cake ever, so will have to try that next time!

A friend recommended it to me, and I've already ordered two birthday cakes from here. The tiramisu cake was absolutely delicious, honestly one of the best I've ever had. I didn't even know you could customize a tiramisu cake since it's usually served the traditional way, but they made it exactly how I wanted. As someone who loves tiramisu, this really stood out. I also ordered a strawberry shortcake, and it was just as impressive. The buttercream was so good , light, flavorful, and not overly sweet. Everyone loved it, and there wasn't a single slice left. The owner's son (I believe) was super helpful, he really takes the time to understand what you want and brings it to life perfectly. I've also tried their croissants, which are huge and delicious, and the hero bread is excellent too. Just a heads-up: they only accept cash.I'll definitely be ordering all my cakes from here moving forward!

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!

I got the cube cakes here, and despite being very distinct flavor profiles, they were all delicious. My friends and I's favorites were earl grey with yuzu glaze and the lemon olive oil with strawberry glaze. They also had vegan options which tasted just as good (and as moist) as the non-vegan. Like I wouldn't have been able to tell by tasting it. I also have had cakes from here (various friends' parties), which is how I first heard about it. My favorite cake is the Blueberry Earl Grey cake. The earl grey flavored pastries here are amazing. Such a great distinct flavor that is not too heavy and pairs well with the fruitiness of the blueberry. I also tried their strawberry shortcake matcha latte. Very very sweet, but a great pick-me-up (which is actually unlike their pastries which I'd consider to be "not too sweet" = perfect sweetness level for the Asian palate). The staff was very pleasant, and they put my pastries in different bags to note which ones to refrigerate and which are okay at room temperature.

However, I find that a lot of the restaurants in LIC is on the more expensive side, so maybe this is the average cost there. Luckily, all that money wasn't for nothing. It was my first time having a naked cake, and I thought I wouldn't like it that much since I'm all about that frosting/ whipped cream. But it was perfect. The two layers of sponge cake sandwiches a thicccc layer of frosting, so it wasn't too dry. The pandan flavor came through and wasn't too sweet.
