La Rancherita Bakery - Sweet Bread

La Rancherita Bakery 181 N. Washington Ave…read more Bergenfield, NJ 07621 Sweet Bread Tacos: Pork/Chicken/Steak Flan While the exterior appears to be small and mediocre in appearance, the inside is filled with fantastic pastries at really affordable prices. There's no wall menu and the bakers primary language is Spanish, so I am unable to identify the types of sweet bread. Name or no name, the bread is a sweet choice to supplement your breakfast. They each have a light, puffy, and flaky texture and are great for dipping in your morning cup of Joe. If you aren't craving pastries, there is a lunch selection available. Double wrapped in two soft shells, the tacos are a quick, but satisfying meal. In my opinion, it wasn't necessary to include cucumbers and lime. But, the chopped radishes surprisingly gave the tacos a nice crunch and you can never have enough cilantro and hot sauce. Whether you are in the mood for breakfast or dessert pastries, stop by for treats that are light on both your tummy and wallet! #LaRancherita #sweetbread #flan #tacos #bergenfieldnj #nwashingtonave #spanishbakery

This is THE place to get Mexican food out here. Hands down. This is it…read more Tastes great. Big portions. And way more authentic than any of the other little shops I've tried around here. You know some of the ways to tell if ethnic food is good in a non enclave area? These aren't 100% but often good signs. The workers mostly don't speak English. The customers are all that ethnicity, many of them also speaking little to no English. They hit both. It helps a lot to speak Spanish, especially over the fone. But they make it work if all you know is gringo. Huge tortas. Surprisingly good shrimp quesadillas. Proper tacos and birria with the consommé. Refreshing salsa verde and creamy salsa roja. Big flavors. Admittedly I'm not a fan of their baked goods, but they do have good priced specials on them.

I've heard a lot of good things about Christine's Bake Shop from family members and other Yelpers,…read moreso I decided to stop by during my little visit to the Berg. This particular branch is small, but does carry quite a variety of freshly baked breads, pastries, and cakes. Mini Pan de Sal ($1.50): Freshly baked? Yes! That price is unbeatable. Taste wise, it's solid. However, I'll have to echo another Yelper: Christine's does not pump out "the best pan de sal on the planet." It's a matter of opinion, of course; however, the fresh pan de sal from a random bakery in the Philippines tops this, hands down. I'll also second Valerios in California, especially the San Jose branch (shoutout to the 408!). However, I do think the pan de sal here is soft and delicious. I'm used to buying the larger Stella's-brand pan de sal, but Christine's is good too. Pandan Cake Roll ($12): From the first bite, I could tell it was fresh. The cake was soft, moist, and had a good amount of cream filling. I'm not fond of cake, but this was alright since it was not overly sweet. I'm not sure what it was, but the small green dots on top of the icing stuck to my teeth, so that was probably the main thing I did not like about this roll. Pastillas ($2.80): These are probably the best items I bought. They were super soft, rich, flavorful, and tasty. Get the ube flavored ones! It has the perfect balance of sweetness, and is not as rich or sweet as the original Pastillas de Leche. There is also a pandan flavor if that appeals to you, as well. I would definitely come back for the Pastillas de Ube. There are different kinds of ensaymada, cake rolls ($11-12 each), larger round cakes ($24-$25 each), pan de coco, mamon, Food of the Gods, brownies, and...cannolis!? They also do custom-design cakes.

I orderd a birthday cake from Ani for my husband's 60th birthday . unfortunately it was a big…read moredeception for us all. The cake was nothing like the picture and it fell apart. we couldn't even cut the cake, it ended up in the trash. I contacted her and send a picture of the cake. She stated she didn't know what happened. I paid $235 plus a $20 delivery fee. she told me she would give me a credit towards my next purchase and when I contacted her to order another cake to give her the benefit of the doubt, and use my credit . she never answered my text. I will not recommend this baker to anyone.

I have ordered several cakes from Ami. After my first order, I was so HAPPY to find a baker in town…read morewho knows what she's doing! She is my go- to for my celebrations needs. My guests at the party were so impressed and everyone loved the flavor. I especially enjoy that EVERYTHING was made from scratch. Her skills on sculpting fondant, making flowers, baking a flavorful, moist cake amaze me! I also like that she has catered to my needs with having some gluten free options For my crowd. The next project I'll be calling her to work on with me is a whole dessert table. I love that she is a one stop shop for the cake and all desserts to go along with it. I am always pleased with her friendliness, open communication and her timeliness with executing each project. Highly recommend Ami's cakes!
