    Cherry pie for $15
    Cortney W.

    I had a good experience here. I hadn't been to Mrs. Maxwell's in years. We stopped in for a strawberry shortcake. There was no line and it was very quick. Perhaps it was because it was a holiday. The store is organized for efficiency. A counter for cakes to go. Another for decorations and preordered cakes. There are balloons, cards and other celebratory items for sale. Literally one stop shopping. I noticed someone even purchasing soda. The parking lot is another nice touch. No looking for street parking. The cake was pretty good too!

    The best cakes

    I was so pleased with the birthday cake I purchased for my granddaughter birthday. I didn't think it would be big enough for all the guests we had, we actually had left over cake. It was so good that i will purchase another cake from there if I have another event.

    Red velvet. White icing was delicious.

    Definitely our new go-to bakery! Everyone loved that red velvet cake for a birthday dinner we had. It feeds over 12 people I'd say & was $50. They have cakes already made and sold for a little less expensive. I love the icing, it was so good. I suggest not getting a filing because the icing is enough and the cake is so moist that it doesn't need filing! My only complaint/suggestion/concern is if you have a special cake for pickup, just know it won't be ready by the time that they say. Arrive on time nonetheless so you can check-in with them & they will finish off their personal touches to your cake probably after this. I honestly don't blame them. Imagine how many people order cakes with sayings and never show up. It's a business and customers have to respect the business too. They also sell cards & balloons. It's a one-stop shop!

    I was amazed how nice the lettering came out.  I think his name was something like Jiedan.

    I've originally intended to go to Valencia Bakery in ENY to buy a pineapple filled birthday cake for my Dad-in-law. But it was closed. Then I remember about Mrs Maxwell's Bakery. I've brought a 8" yellow cake with pineapple filling for $22. I agree with the other reviews that the cake was fresh and tasty. But what impressed me the most of how fancy the person wrote "Happy Birthday Day" (see photo). It was artistic.

    Great experience with Maxwell's bakery in preparing for a celebration for our daughter. The parking lot is a great benefit as the store is on a very busy street and staff is helpful in going through cake options. Service was on point as the cake was available on time for pick up and looked great. Guests enjoyed the cake as it was moist and tasty.

    So pretty and so yummy!

    I have been enjoying these yummy cakes for years!! My Mom used to buy my birthday cakes from here and now I buy my son's. I favor the whip cream cakes and when I order in advance I get whip cream only within the layers. It is sooooo perfect that way and not to sweet. Well not to me ;) I LOVE Mrs. Maxwell's!!

    I love the cakes and pastries here at Mrs. Maxwell's Bakery. Ever since I was a kid my grandparents would drive here all the time for cheesecake when Junior's wasn't an option of choice. I recently ordered a birthday cake for my son and they did a really good job with the decorations. The cake itself was moist and fresh with just the right amount of sweetness in the buttercream. We enjoyed every bite. This bakery is a must for all occasions!

    The Maxwell's and Brooklyn on Vansicklen is the worst cake I've ever tasted. I would never buy them again. It's horrible.

    Radio Bakery is a very popular bakery in Brooklyn. This has been my second time and each time there…read morewas a line outside, however it moves quickly and the space inside is very small. Even though there is a line, you do not feel rushed or pressured to order quickly. On this visit we ordered plain croissant, chocolate croissant-fresh out of the oven, rhubarb croissant, black forest pastry and brown butter corn cake. The chocolate croissant was amazing. It is triple chocolate and cocoa powder is in the dough. It is filled with milk and dark chocolate, so creamy. The plain croissant was flaky and light. The brown butter corn cake was crispy and caramelized on the outside and soft and moist. The Black Forest croissant is a seasonal offering. It is made with their Triple Chocolate Croissant filled with chocolate cake and sour cherries and topped with mascarpone cream , Rhubarb & Custard Croissant . It is tart and sweet. The rhubarb is roasted and complimented with sweet vanilla custard. They all were excellent. Each were about $8. Highly recommend and don't let the line deter you .

It's also difficult to see all the items since everyone is packed in a line even when you get into the store. The food itself: - cardamom bun was yummy, a bit too cardamom forward though. 3.5/5 - the pb and J croissant was cool, a bit too rich for my liking but I admire how different it was and I actually had to save this one for the next day and it was still good so 4/5
