Updating my review from 2 years ago - I decided to give Layers another try and bought two different…read moreflavors of "brownies" and 2 pints of ice cream. To start, they "brownies" are not actual brownies. They are individual slices of cake. I didn't notice this 2 years ago but having it again last night, the Cadbury brownie tastes like a layered sheet cake made from box mix. The frosting on top wasn't too sweet, but certainly doesn't carry the richness of Cadbury chocolate. In a slice this simple, there's really no place to hide and paying that much for something that taste like it was battered out a box is not worth it in my opinion. The Dubai chocolate slice tasted better, but tbh, the Dubai chocolate cake from Costco not only tastes better but has a better price point! I was really excited to try their ice cream - I loved their flavor choices, but that's where my fondness pretty much stopped. The pints were pricey and taste super home made (not in a good way). The ice cream was hard and while it tasted like sweet cream, it was definitely not churned enough to carry a smooth texture. They pints were Van Leeuwen prices but the taste and texture was far from quality ice cream. In this case, I much rather pick up a pint of Hagen Daz, again much better price point and better quantity. The store is pretty but I won't be returning.

I was only inside this bakery for a few minutes to hand-deliver some literature the day before…read moreEaster, but WOW!...The look and aroma of their cakes, pastries, and donuts hit me like very few bakeries do these days. I look forward to returning as a customer (I am from Syosset) very soon. They seem very friendly and, based on the line outside the store, very popular in the neighborhood. 'GREAT to know there's still a place to get this kind of baked goods in the general vicinity of my hometown.

Would've taken more photos but my family ate everything too fast and this was all I was able to get lol

Cardinali Bakery Carle Place is an institution. For 50 glorious years this lovely Italian family…read morehas brought so much love, infinite smiles and happy tummies to all with their consistent and unparalleled quality and class. The fresh bread - the onion loaf is the best in NY; the ciabatta is crazy delicious and addicting. Love their cannolis - filled and I do mean filled to the max with the heavenly and creamy ricotta cheese mix and those chocolate chips. Their cakes are in a league of their own- no one can touch their rainbow cake and cannoli cake. The fruit tarts have the best, fresh fruit and are also divine. The muffins - banana nut, pistachio and cranberry are scream worthy( as in shout out loud awesome). Saving the best for last - the almond horns. The coffee is really good too. The bakery is immaculate. I mean spotless. The ladies working are sweet, sharp and very courteous. I love that they opened a custom cake shop right next door in 2013 specializing in wedding cakes. Cardinali Carle Place is open 7 days a week. If you come by around 7:07 am look for this guy in the parking lot smiling as he loves on his fresh loaf of bread dipping it in his hot coffee.

I went to get a birthday cake for my mom and found this bakery from google maps…read more It was busy with a line almost out of the door. While waiting, I noticed people purchasing their semolina loaf and made the decision to get this bread, too. I purchased a fresh strawberry cake, 1 lobster roll with custard, one with crème, 2 small cannoli, and one semolina bread. The strawberry cake was tasty and not super sweet. The cannoli was delicious and crispy. The lobster tails were amazing. And the semolina was one of the better breads he has found. Service was prompt and the bakery was clearly marked with entry and exit. The line was orderly and I only regret it is not super close to our home.

Small bakery but full of bright colors and delicious looking pastries. Their tres leches cake is something they are known for and they offer different versions of it. Off to the side they have hot food including chicken and meat empanadas. My favorite of theirs is the meat. Their corn arepas are also so.damn.good I could eat them every day. Prices are fair. I was able to bring back food for the whole family for $24 and that included a slice of cake for my FIL. Service is friendly and they don't leave you waiting around. Get what you need, pay, and head home.

They do have a variety of fresh cream cakes if you come early and not wait until the end of the day. Staff helps to answer any questions you have have on the cakes.

Their pastries are top notch, both in ingredient and aesthetics, but beyond that I am most impressed with the customer service at this location. They stand behind excellence and ensure customer satisfaction, and it shows in their demeanor and action when something is not 100% up to par. If you're looking for something delicious and beautiful, or a piece of cake, tart, or mousse that will impress, this is your place! It's worth every penny!

And now an even closer location in Plainview! Pretty soon they're gonna open one right in my backyard or something haha. It is a lovely spot for authentic French-inspired pastries and coffee. I've had everything here including cupcakes, brownies, croissants, macarons, cookies, madelines, etc. I've also come here to get a small cake for special occasions. It is also a very nice place to come with friends and enjoy a coffee and pastries. The elegant, pristine interior with marble accents and beautiful displays creates a welcoming Parisian vibe. Perfect for a quick treat or relaxed sit-down. I love the cookies here, they're soft and chewy unlike the Plainview FWS I always leave with a giant bag of 5 of every different flavor of cookie(chocolate chip, nutella, oreo, pistachio, etc) because the texture is so soft and smooth. My new obsession is the fruits of the forest cake. So delicious! Its a must try!!! It gets packed in here, but the line moves quickly! If you haven't tried FWS yet, what are you waiting for?

I do not know why the owners are letting some people hang out with their laptop running and occupy more space than what they need. They should set them a time limit for their stay or set only certain table to stay if they wont dined. I see at least 2 people each had a cup of drinks only with them.. This cafe has multiple choices of bread , drinks and sweets with a favorable pricing. No wonder it is a favorite spot to hang out by so many. Ambiance is lively. Location is great.
