Spent my birthday in Lake George last weekend and was looking for bakeries to buy a cake in. Found this place while in town with my friend on a whim. Went in around 3:30 on a Friday and luckily the baker was in! My friend got me a cake and says the flavor was vanilla with buttercream since that was all she had to make that day before they closed. She made a beautiful cake all in 30-40 minutes! I like vanilla but wouldn't be my first choice. When I saw the cake I was impressed and loved the colors. When I tasted the cake.. I kid you not, it WAS THE MOST DELICIOUS vanilla cake I've ever had. There was some custard inside which was delicious! Mouth watering when I think about it. I wish this bakery was in close proximity to where I lived but then actually would be quite dangerous. We not only got cake but got some treats too, cream puff, eclairs, carrot cake and chocolate cupcake and ALL DELICIOUS! I couldn't stop eating the carrot cake. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Suffice to say I will come here every time I'm back in Lake George! read more

Lake George Baking - $15. Can't go wrong !! - Bakeries Near Me - Lake George, New York

Stopped in for breakfast with my boyfriend and family. We each got something different; apple turnover, blueberry muffin, and a cinnamon roll. Sorry, I only got a picture of my apple turnover. The apple turnover was extremely delicious! I asked for it to be warmed up and it was just perfect. Fresh coffee was also made; delicious ! Service with a smile! Highly recommended! read more

Stopped in once to Lake George Baking during our vacation to the Lake George area. I decided on a "variety box" of goodies consisting of an apple turnover, a chocolate covered cannoli, an eclair, a cinnamon twist, and a large 1/2 chocolate covered almond cookie. We ate most of the contents of our variety box on top of Prospect Mountain, after driving up there on the Veterans Memorial Highway. The apple turnover was the best we've ever had, my wife suggested we should get several of those turnovers before we head back to Connecticut (but we didn't stop back in, unfortunately). I devoured the eclair, it was absolutely orgasmic ! DANG, can't believe I just said that, but it was that good. However, we felt the cinnamon twist was a bit dry, but the almond cookie was decent. The "Loser" of the box (by far) was the chocolate covered cannoli though -- the filling did not go all the way through and it was lackluster (consuming it after that apple turnover and the eclair might not have helped). We've had better cannolis. So all in all, we definitely know what to order on a return trip to Lake George Baking -- the apple turnovers & eclairs, obviously. They are the best you will find anywhere. read more

I stopped in because I saw a sign on the outside that said it was the home of fudgy the dessert cookie and I thought it was something original and that I never saw again, but all it looked like was a butter cookie with fudge on top. Boring! I ended up getting a chocolate eclair and that was nothing great. I've had better tasting and fresher ones from shoprite. Oh, Lake George, how you disappoint me unless it's pizza or ice cream. read more

I was in the area for the Lake George Winterfest! My friends suggested we pick up some goodies on the way home. I love pastries, so I was more than game for the suggestion. It was such a delight to walk in and see and smell the lovely pastries. They have fresh bread and deserts. I also found out that there is another location in Queensbury. I had no idea and I worked in Queensbury for a year. There were so many delicious options to choose from that I was overwhelmed. It is a small location and there were two customers in front of us. Everyone had masks on. The customer service was good and they were friendly and helpful. The wait time was normal I will definitely be back. read more

Came in here for some delicious cookies. Chocolate chip with like chocolate topped on it, was very good. Cute place and good service.

A great little find right by downtown Lake George Village. If you are staying at the Marriott Courtyard it is literally a hop skip away. Its a no frills.bakery and the service was ok. We definitely didn't get a service with a smile. Now on to the baked good. We got 3 things. The lobster tail with strawberry and whip crea. The black and white cookie and the apple turn over. I will start with the worst. The lobster tail was horrible. The 'tail' was not flaky at all, it tasted dense and it tasted almost stale. The custard and the whip cream was dense and not airy. All in all, I would definitely avoid this. It was so bad we only ate half. The black and white cookie was ok. Nothing to write home about. Now on to why I gave this biz a 4 star despite the first 2 bad reviews. The apple turnover is SOOOOoo good. The filling tasted fresh and not overly sweet. The crusty, airy, flaky turnover crust was so tasty. We couldn't stop eating. Take our advice and those of the other yekpers and get urself some apple turn over. Make sure u get one or urslef and one for your significant other so you won't meed to fight over the last bite! read more

I love love love this place. This probably will be the only reason I'd go back to Lake George. I'm still dreaming about the 7layer chocolate cake. My only regret is I didn't get more. So cakey... sooooo chocolatey.... YUM! YUM!! I was beyond pleased. Everything was reasonably priced and Iooked so good, the eclairs and cream puffs and cannolis... it was certainly hard to resist. They usually lay out some samples to try as well. The staff are super friendly. There is only room enough to grab and go, no seating inside but they have a few tables on the patio. read more

Being from around here I'm sad to say I never came here before. I could have had such delicious pastries, cakes, cookies in my life way before now. The lady at the counter is super awesome. Tells you everything you need to know. I was told to come here from a friend and ask for lobster tails. So I ordered 3 and was told that they are being made as we speak. I waited 10 minutes for heaven in a box. They have strawberries and raspberries. I recommend getting them while you can. While waiting 4 other couples came in and all asked for lobster tails. So I knew my friend was on to something. I came home opens the pastry box and was in heaven. The aroma, the size, the looks were great. That first bite took me to a place I never been to before. Sadly to say when I was done eating it I was back into reality. I need to get a job there and learn the baking skills from the great baker's of the Lake George Bakery. read more

Lake George Baking - So many choices so many decisions. Try 'em all ! - Bakeries Near Me - Lake George, New York

Wow - blown away with the quality of the baked goods from this spot - a perfect stop on the drive from New York to Canada. The pastries, like the apple turnover, were perfectly flaky, while the cookies were crumbly and choc full of flavor and mix ins. The service was very friendly and there is a nearby park to enjoy your goodies. I would strongly recommend stopping by if you're in the area, or even if it's a bit out of the way! read more

Delicious sweet treats in Lake George along with fresh breads, but I would have liked to have seen more options. Would have been nice if they had some donuts in the morning. Everything we did have was good and they had a few gluten free options for my wife. It is a small place inside and they have a few tables outdoors where you can sit and eat, but we always took ours back to the hotel and ate on the roof top deck. Friendly customer service. read more

Can not say enough good things about this bakery, the rolls are outstanding and any pastries, cookies, other bakery goodies are DELICIOUS .

First off the staff could not have been nicer which to me is a huge plus. We ordered their apple turnovers after reading some previous reviews and were not disappointed. They were very good and large enough to share. We also had a loaf of bread, which was very good and I had a Linzer Torte cookie which I thought was excellent. We would definitely go back if we are ever in the area again. read more

During my brief stop in Lake George, I stopped in at the Lake George Baking Company on Amherst Street near the Price Chopper for a few bakery items for my roadtrip. This little bakery is owned and operated by the former owners of the Vanilla Bean Baking Co in Troy, which was definitely one of my favorite bakeries. LGBC offers a good selection of individual desserts, eclairs, pastries, cheesecakes, muffins, cookies, cupcakes, pies, breads, rolls, and cakes for special occasions including birthdays and weddings. They also offer their Fudge Fancy cookies here! There was a small crowd of customers packed inside the small front area, but the short line moved quickly as I pointed out which bakery items behind the glass display case I wanted to purchase. In and out! The napolean, one of my favorite desserts, is layered with a pastry sheets, creamy sweet filling and sweet frosting on top. The maple frosted cinnamon bun is good sized which has plenty of cinnamon, sugar roll in soft pastry, and topped with a sweet maple frosting. The cannolis have a cool and sweet ricotta filling stuffed in a firm shell. By the time I finished up enjoying my sweet purchases, I wanted to head back to Lake George again for get some more! This little bakery is a true gem, a nice place to stop for "solid great" bakery items, to satisfy the sweet tooth. read more

What a disappointment! If I could rate this bakery with a zero, I would. Back in the late spring of 2018, I stopped by their Lake George location with my friend, Roberta (who used to be the Director of Sales at Fort William Henry on Lake George) to see if they would be interested in baking about 200-300 fall-themed cookies for a wedding I was managing on the Horicon in October. The owner, Debbie, said yes she would do it and asked me to contact her after Labor Day to discuss the details. I trusted her. Big mistake. I sent multiple e-mails via their website and received no reply. Called twice and left messages with "Nina". No call back (!). This occurred over a period of about three weeks. As a hospitality professional, I find their lack of response inexcusable. Apparently, others have had an issue with these people because when I posted an ISO message on the local Marketplace websites looking for recommendations for other bakeries, people commented that they had had problems with Lake George Bakery, too. Terrible customer service. Find another baker as I did (and will report on her after the event takes place) as these people apparently don't care and, it was suggested (not by me but by others), that they may be going out of business. read more

Friendly staff! We tried the muffins- both cranberry walnut and cinnamon- moist and flavorful. Lobster tail was so yummy- had custard in the very bottom of the tail. Eclair had delicious fudge chocolate on top. All items were soooooo fresh! read more

Strictly concerning the service which was despicable. After ordering a cake with certain specifications I arrived and was presented with almost nothing of which I ordered and this was following TWO phone conversations. I ordered a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and a specific message on the cake. The frosting was white and the message was wrong. After going back and forth with the employee, who was very nice and professional, I talked with the owner who basically told me that if I wanted the cake I ordered I'd have to pay over and above what I already paid. I expressed my displeasure as she was walking away with her botched cake and raising my voice as she was bent on dismissing me. In as much I asked her if this is how she ran her business and she proceeded to get in my face and told me to lower my f---ing voice. I couldn't believe that my protests, which were reasonable, were met with profanity and said as much and was met with more profanity and banned from the store. She locked me out and used an obscene gesture. I was threatened that the whole in incident was on video and I challenged her to put the video on the local news and I was told "They're personal friends!" My challenge is still issued to the store owner if she cares to get the public's opinion on the entire situation. Any day of the week and twice on Sunday. Just be warned, if your order is botched it will no doubt be your fault and you'll have to pay over and above the botched order to get what you ordered in the first place. In all fairness, the food is delicious but NOTHING and I mean NOTHING short of a heartfelt public apology and a fully compensated cake will ever get me to spend one red cent in that bakery ever again. God bless and have a wonderful day. read more

I'm allowing 2 stars as we haven't tried the cake yet and I hope it tastes good, as I paid $40 and it sure doesn't look good. The cake was not ready until an hour after I requested it, leading me to worry they were rushing the finishing and decorating of it. They insisted the cake box stay open when I took it, in order not to "smush" the whipped cream. Shouldn't a cake fit properly in its box? I sat in the backseat with the cake and on arriving home, found that the layers had slid apart. Thus, confirming my fear of a rushed cake. I called and was told "the cake should not move" but that they could fix it if returned. We are 40 minutes away and had already waited on the cake on the first visit. Spending another 2 hrs to get the cake fixed on my daughters birthday isn't an option. I'm just so disappointed with the execution of this cake. read more

I waited as long as I could before reviewing this, to give the company every chance to correct the mistakes but my family and I have had 4 orders with 3 of them having issues in under a year and a half. The good - July 2017 we got two great cakes from Lake George Baking Company that matched the photos we showed them. Delicious and gorgeous. August 2018 - When we placed our order, we were told that LG Baking Company could do everything we wanted. Two days before we were to pick up the cake, they called to tell us that they couldn't do the sea animals on top of the cake that we had asked for. We had to make the sea animals and green standup seaweed with fondant at home and made chocolate sea shells to decorate with. Very displeased but the cake was good. June 2019 - We previously ordered a cake in June 2014 with a picture printed on the top that was edible. We asked for the same style with a different picture. What we got was a picture printed on a piece of paper. We were very disappointed in quality after being told they would have no problem fulfilling the order. The cake was also supposed to be one side chocolate cake, one side white cake. We received marble so the person the cake was for never got to eat it. August 2019 - We ordered a cake in the shape of a 2 and two small smash cakes. The day before we were to pickup, we were called to say they couldn't do the shape of the 2. Again, when we placed the order we were told it would be fine and they could do it. At this point, we went out and bought a 2 cake pan, baked our own and got smash cakes from Price Chopper. While their cake is quite good, I do not recommend them for anything other the simplest of things. The quality of the cakes have declined and it appears that there are now issues with ordering. My only suggestion at this point is to have the person who is making the cakes, take the orders to prevent one person from promising something that can't be delivered. If this had been done, my family and I would've had the time to find someone else who could do what we wanted instead of being forced to take what we could to still pull off an event. read more

Excellent quality. Fudge fancies eclairs and naploens are fantastic. The dinner rolls are always fresh and a great addition to any meal

Best. Eclair. Ever. I stumbled upon this store while walking around lake George. They have a wide assortment of baked goods from breads to cheesecakes. I decided on an eclair. It was stuffed with the perfect amount of filling and the chocolate on top just melted in your mouth. Would definitely recommend. read more

Lake George Baking - Chocolate eclair - Bakeries Near Me - Lake George, New York

Cute little bakery with colorful chairs outside for you to sit and enjoy your baked goods! I fell in love with this place one summer when I tried their Key Lime Pie! Not too sweet, but brings the sourness and a hint of bitterness from key limes. They are also known for their fudge fancies which are good, but I'm not a big fan of chocolate/fudge. I look forward to trying their second and third most popular items next summer which are the huge apple turnovers and eclairs. read more

Dutch Apple Pie, Fruit of the Forest pie, brownies, cookies, cheese danish and a Cherry Melt-a-Way are what we bought today for a 4th of July BBQ. Everything is fantastic. Friendly workers, clean place, small outdoor area with Adirondack furniture to sit in all spells a winner. So glad this bakery is here. If you're a pie lover, you've found heaven. They have cakes and tiramisu too! read more

The only thing keeping this review from being a 5 is the fact that I was hoping for an early morning there would be a greater donut selection. That said, the donuts, the danish, and blueberry muffins were excellent. In and out very quickly. Tiny spot. Good service. read more

Fresh pastries. Colorful chairs outside good to relax. I was looking for NY Cheesecakes and they have few varieties. I have tried strawberry cheesecake and it is good for the price. It is not as soft as those in NYC, but it is not so sweet, which is what I like. Raspberry and Raspberry coconut Cheesecakes look good too. I haven't tried them yet. read more

So happy we took a small detour from price chopper. I must sample chocolate chip cookies wherever we go. It's a thing....Well, it's a must when you visit here!!! I believe we also got Danishes/muffins for breakfast. they probably didn't last that long ;) Everything was fresh, tasty and had me wanting more... :) read more

The freshest bakery I've come across. So good that my wife and I (along with two kids) decided the other breakfast places in town weren't worth the wait, and we ate here instead two days in a row. Great coffee too, along with a friendly staff. Small place but cute outdoor dining. We'll be coming back when we go upstate again! read more

We've been looking for a place that is similar to the Apple crisp from Salem and the best one, we found in here. Their apple pie is to die for and it always sells out fast... I definitely would grab them as early as possible and just keep them in the fridge. Definitely a must eat. read more

Wow! Best Apple turnover ever. So crispy! The filling was fresh and subtlety sweet, not over sweetened or spiced. Then there was the lobster tail! Real whipped cream and delicious pastry cream with fresh strawberry topping. No sicky artificial flavoring here. The pastry was crisp enough to audibly crunch as I bit into it. It was huge, but somehow I soldiered on read more

Purchased a custom cake for my grandsons First Birthday party...the cake frosting was overly sweet and very granular...but the WORST part was the picture on the cake. They cut off the baby's hair and chin in the pic...it looked like a Telletubbie face...It was a total BIRTHDAY CAKE FAIL....emailed owner 2 times to request refund or explanation...when I called the employee said owner does not respond to negative calls or reviews. I am going to try and add the pic...so ya'll can laugh! Insult to injury this cost $60... read more

Excellent birthday cake the frosting and cream were delicious!!! I will definitely buy again from this little gem in Lake George NY

Do you need a wedding cake! Well look no further! Debbie, the owner of this bakery, will bake you the wedding cake of your dreams. Not only will it be beautiful, the best part, it was delicious! I asked Debbie for a Rustic Birch wedding cake. She knew just what to do. She doesn't bake the cake until two days before and it never sees a freezer. Thus, moist/fresh cake that can be enjoyed by all. Debbie is old school. She meets with you in person and doesn't accept payment until two days before. This is a lady who knows her craft. I was so pleased with the outside of the cake and more importantly the inside. (wedding cake with buttercream icing and raspberry filling) Go taste for yourself! read more

THE BEST NAPOLEONS I HAVE EVER EATEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! And there have been many napoleons, let me tell you. I'm kind of a connoisseur (don't you judge me!) and I'm used to the bakeries in the boroughs. This one tasted fresh, the cream was smooth, the dough was crispy and flaky and the icing... Slight lemon cream flavoring was a nice surprise! I had also bought a box of Italian cookies which were delish and my dad couldn't stop eating the torpedo rolls. The service was fast and friendly and the prices were reasonable! read more
