Scratch Bakery came across my FYP on TikTok. Since I was in town, I decided to try them out. I…read morevisited on a Saturday afternoon. The establishment was very clean and very organized. The staff was very friendly as they greeted us on the way in. There is a variety of cakes and cupcakes and they also do milkshakes. I ordered a lemon pound cake and a red velvet cupcake and my boyfriend ordered a cookies and cream milkshake. The milkshake was delicious and prepared to order. The lemon poundcake and the cupcake were very good but they just weren't as moist and fluffy as I expected them to be. Not saying that they were bad by any means I just wish they were moist. Overall, I had a good experience and I would return.

My sister, niece and I went to the Scratch Bakery on 19 East Mellen St. We bought a brownie with…read morewalnuts, German chocolate cake, sourdough pound cake, lemon pound cake, and two cupcakes-one was a wedding cake cupcake, and the other one was triple strawberry cupcake, and lastly, we got a slice of the pineapple upside down cake. My brother-in-law got the pineapple upside down cake. It's one of his favorite cakes and he's had it from the Scratch Bakery in the past. He said that it just wasn't the same. My sister had the brownie topped with walnuts and icing, she said it had no taste. It lacked the chocolate smell, and she was right when I tasted it it was kind of bland. The best description would be it tasted brown. My niece bought the cupcakes. Other than being dry, the triple strawberry cupcake was OK, but the wedding cake cupcake was "tainted" with an overwhelming almond flavor, so much so you could smell it. Lastly, I had the sourdough pound cake, which also had the overwhelmingly almond flavor. It was dry, and the butter flavor was completely missing. I live in New Jersey, where there are wonderful diners that serve delicious desserts, and my favorite go to dessert is German chocolate cake. I was sorely disappointed when I found it was only one layer topped with the German chocolate cake coconut icing. The icing was OK but the cake was gummy and it lacked the extra coconut in the batter and there were no nuts or nut flavoring in the in the cake part. I found the prices to be a bit high, we spent probably close to $65 on these desserts. The ambience was cute and inviting, and the service was great. I think they need to rework some of their recipes, or maybe use better ingredients.

Thankfully, I was not injured, and I'm especially grateful that my elderly mother did not have the piece that was in my biscotti. What was most concerning was the response when I returned to the bakery to report it. The employee told me the owners had already left, but there was no apology or sense of urgency regarding what could have been a very serious safety issue. I brought the glass back to the bakery and made them aware of the situation. At this point, I believe it is the owners' responsibility to contact me and address this matter. Finding glass in a food product is extremely dangerous, and I hope they take the necessary steps to ensure this never happens to another customer.

The store was clean, organized and included all of the party essentials, like gift bags, platters, candles and cards. Since the Biscoff Cookie Butter Cake has been all the rage, I wanted to stop in and grab one for myself! I was greeted as soon as I walked in and the ladies were so pleasant. After I ordered, I was told that particular cake was sold out in other stores and their store was one of the few that had it. When things go viral, they sell out quick lol. The Biscoff Cookie Butter Cake was definitely worth the $8. The cake was Biscoff flavored and very moist and it included the perfect amount of cream cheese frosting and Biscoff drizzle! It also included two Biscoff cookies on the bottom and one on the top! What a delicious treat! I will definitely be stopping back in for their other amazing cake flavors!!! Check them out if you're in the area!!!

Secondly, There was so many selections I didn't know what to choose but eventually settled on the strawberry cheesecake and red velvet cupcakes. I think they were each about $4.50.
