Small shop on UES, saved my butt twice now! I initially contacted them about a red velvet Spongebob Squarepants cake for my sisters 16th birthday, a week before her birthday! They accepted the job giving me a reasonable quote! My sister was so incredibly happy I was able to get her the exact cake she wanted! Few weeks later, my friends and I planned a last minute birthday picnic and an afternoon before I called them panicking. They suggested to take a strawberry shortcake cake they already had made and decorate it. I just said I wanted flowers and sent them a few ideas. They managed my expectations, since the cake was small and fragile. At the same time they EXCEEDED my expectations with the way the cake came out! Super cute! AND THEY ADDED GLITTER. My friends and I were OBSESSED. I told them when my birthday or any party comes around we are exclusively using this cake shop! I love that I can text them! They are attentive and reasonable. The shop is small, but full of lovely cakes, ribbons and candles and more. The employees are all very nice and helpful. Seriously this shop is just such a gem! Attached are some pictures of Spongebob cake my sister requested and the last minute little cake for my friend. I carried it for 2-3hrs to the picnic in Montclair so the top cracked, but it really didn't matter to us. Les Gateaux De Marie contributed to making our special memories even more special for which I am so so grateful. read more

This is a cute small business where they sell pastries, cakes and coffee. You walk in and all the treats really all look delicious. I stoped in to try their coffee. I got a small decaf iced cappuccino. The lady working here was very sweet and made my coffee by hand. This is a great spot to get birthday cakes too and birthday supplies. I will be coming back here to hopefully try out some of their pastries and other kinds of coffee drinks. read more

We received a strawberry short cake as a gift and wow, we were blown away. It was not a typically sweet cake, which I like. I am not a person that can eat a lot of sweets or sugar. The creme was light and fluffy. There were whole strawberries that enhanced the taste. Highly recommend the strawberry short cake, especially for not too sweet sugar loving people! read more

This storefront is cute with pink awning and a pink outdoor table + chairs to match. It's quite a small store inside, but just enough for two ways of traffic. Their pastries are displayed on a large counter. I stopped by on a weekday afternoon and there was only one other customer before me, so service was fast. NY Cheesecake: Quite a sweet cake with a medium (between light and heavy) texture. The crust on the bottom was a tad more wet than I'd prefer, but it can make for easier eating on-the-go. The cheesecake had a pretty browned top and was a good mid-day snack. It's a bit too much to eat in one serving, so I split it with someone else. read more

Wow! Everything here is just simply amazing. I went when they first opened a couple of years ago and have been wanting to go back for a while (I don't live in the neighborhood). Finally made it back and there are a lot more selections than last time!! :-) The gluten/dairy free chocolate chip cookies are out of this world. The opera cake is excellent and the blue berry and raspberry tarts are sooo good, from the quality of the fruity to the texture of tart itself (not to hard but not so soft) and the crème inside which is better than any tart I have ever had (and I'm obsessed with tarts). Wow! I can't say enough about this place- it deserves 6 stars. Everything is good I am now working my way through every dessert item- now that I can order delivery from here I will be a regular customer. read more

Delicious chocolate cake, not very sweet, just completely rich & chocolate-y layers, felt like a lot of real chocolate went into it. The perfect example of a chocolate cake, more in the European style, vs American super sweet. Also the best brownie ever- not too sweet, very moist, fudgy, chocolatey- just perfect. We may have liked even more than the chocolate cake (more moist), and we normally don't like brownies. Met the owner Maria, such a warm person. Happy to support her bakery. read more

I really wanted to hate this place bc it is expensive. I'm sorry but no small piece of pastry should cost $9+. This was the price range for the French pastries. Having said that, I still ordered a slice of kinder cake ~ $9.50, cupcake ~ $3.50, chocolate croissant ~$3 but only bc it was after 5pm when croissants are 50% off. All items were super delicious! The cupcake looked like you could purchase at a supermarket but it was one of the best cupcakes I have tasted! The chocolate croissant was on par with any good croissant in the city. The star was obviously the star of the show! I'm not comfortable with the price point but if you're willing to shell out $9+ for a French pastry, go for it! read more

You should tell customers that a raspberry chocolate cake will come without raspberries if you ask for writing. I definitely would have chosen the raspberries if I was told since the cake had no taste of raspberries. I never complained of any cake before. this one's chocolate cream topping was so dense and tasted like it came out of a can. No one liked it and no one had more than 1 or 2 bites and we threw it out. I didn't get any satisfaction when I complained to the owner. It was definitely not the quality of an $85 cake. read more

Marie was a delight! She was very relaxed and calm in what was a hectic wedding planning for me and my wife. If you set an appointment for a cake tasting with her, just make sure to call ahead the day of, as there was a little confusion when I arrived; but the cake samples I tried were freshly made and delicious! When I showed her my design for the wedding cake, she was able to recreate it in real life near-flawlessly, while offering her professional opinions from time to time during the process. All four flavors of the cake tiers were delicious and looked so beautiful and professional. She uses a trusted taxi driver to deliver the cake, and was understanding when a few things went wrong last minute, but she came up herself to make sure everything went fine! I would definitely recommend Marie for making our wedding dreams come true! read more

Nice staff. Very Friendly answered all my questions. I judge a boulangerie (though this may be less of a boulangerie and more of a cake shop) by its plain croissant and sadly the one I tried was far too doughy and lacked any texture. The croissant was not terrible by any means just not anything I would want to get again. I should have relied upon the namesake of the establishment and tried some sort of cake or cake like pastry instead. With so many other French pastry options in this area hard to see myself going here for viennoiserie , but I'll see if any of the sweeter more decadent items shine. read more

My mother bought me a cake from here for my birthday. I knew something was off when she handed me the box as it was extremely and oddly heavy for a cake. I love frosting, but this one was so thick and chewy and everyone at the table agreed that it tasted like it was out of a Betty Crocker can. It was supposed to be a chocolate raspberry cake but it had no raspberries! It was a beautiful looking cake but we ended up throwing the whole thing out as it was inedible. Even the cake part was bland. When my mother called to complain that the chocolate raspberry cake had no raspberries, she did not even get an apology! read more

I had gone in for two small Viennoise that I am fond of. I did see pink heart shaped macarons and heart shaped croissants best eaten quickly before they deflate.

The coffee has to be so good otherwise (and for some people maybe they do) the pastries would steal the show. My wife and I split a chocolate croissant and the Cardamom Pastry (amazing!). I love a place that cares about all the details and quality, not just presentation.

I waited in line for cold pastries.. not worth it to me, unless you're the first one at the door when they open.
