    Osmanthus Oolong Tea, Earl Grey Black Sesame Cake, Black Sesame Cheesecake, Matcha Square Croissant, Matcha Green Tea Donut
    Amy S.

    Definitely think the matcha green tea donut stood out in comparison based on was ordered although I liked it all! Plus the oolong tea was nice with the osmanthus undertones which add a sweet floral taste. Spacious bakery with customers working on their laptop as well as people eating together. The Asian-inspired pastries at Sweet Cake are eye-catching with interesting flavor combinations.

    Love getting the cakes here as they're not too sweet. I usually opt for the strawberry matcha cake or the taro cake. A full sized cake is like $42. The decorations are super cute, and the flavor is light. The matcha cake doesn't taste much like matcha at all, though, but I couldn't care less. The strawberry part is light and slightly tart. Highly recommended for an Asian taste palette!

    Popped in Friday night after a bike ride to flushing and had a delicious lychee yakult and my friend loved the ube croissant. Would love to try the Labubu raffle if you spend over $35! The staff was great and very helpful. Spacious area.

    Sweet Cake has the most beautiful cakes, delicate egg tarts, and a dreamy variety of pastries - everything looks almost too good to eat. From the flaky layers to the rich, colorful details, every bite is a little piece of heaven. Spend $35 & enter to win a Labubu! Follow me @foodie.elite on IG and Tiktok for more.

    I definitely like supporting a local business when possible. It's even better when the product and quality is good! The small bakery had some nice surprises. The space is ample with enough seating and nicely decorated as well. The pastries that they have look very modern, but have a traditional essence to them as in Asian bakery... They're still very delicious and not too sweet. My favorite thing that I got was the ube puff. It was flaky like a croissant with a fluffy, creamy filling that was just the right amount of sweet for me. The staff was very friendly and quick on their toes to make sure to get everyone's orders just right and out in time. I would definitely recommend checking this place out.

    Good - nice seating area. Friendly servers. Nice looking bakery items. Acceptable - quality of cake and drinks are decent but have had better and worse. Need improvement- bakery selection Went to meet a friend. No pressure to leave so can hang out a bit. Hot drinks can be a bit hotter.

    I heard about this place because of a special promotion they were running for their 3rd anniversary. If you spent a certain amount, you could get a raffle ticket and potentially win a Labubu, and the first 5 who do, are able to get a guaranteed one! I figure, I love sweets, and I don't HAVE a labubu yet, so why not right? :3 I came by and got 3 slices of cake (the Strawberry Sweetheart, Double Layer Chocolate Cake, and the Summer Lemon Pistachio) as well as two pastries (Strawberry Danish with Almond Cream and something just called the Grilled Cheese) and was able to play the raffle where I won a free drink, choosing the Lychee Yakult. Aesthetically speaking the cakes are very pretty and the packaging holds up which is nice for when you have to commute back home with them ( I live near Coney Island for reference). Strawberry Sweetheart: I think the balance of strawberry cream to the cake was handled well. A bit more strawberry forward in terms of strawberry than a strawberry shortcake with a hint of rose to it I believe, I detected some floral notes to it, which were understated but present and delightful. ------------------------------------ Double Layer Chocolate Cake: I will say, when something says Double Layer Chocolate Cake, I'm kindddd of expecting it to be a burst of chocolate flavor. This isn't too heavy handed, which I know some people would appreciate, but I'd love for them to pile on the chocolate flavor! ------------------------------------ Summer Lemon and Pistachio: I think the lemon flavor compliments it well, just wish the pistachio was also a bit stronger, it is Summer Lemon and Pistachio after all! The flavor combination is a good pairing though, tart+ citrus with the earthy nuttyiness of pistachio. ------------------------------------ Grilled Cheese: Okay, when I asked about this, they couldn't REALLY tell me more about it which I thought was funny lol. Tastewise, it kind of tastes like a gooier egg tart, one which the center isn't as baked through. It tastes good! And the pastry shell, I will say is very crispy which is a great plus but it didn't really come off as Grilled Cheese haha. ------------------------------------ Strawberry Danish with Almond Cream: Just a well executed strawberry with pastry cream danish. The cream has good flavor and pairs well with the strawberries, and they do their pastry shells VERY well here I've noticed. They're super crispy and not a hint of sogginess to it, even when holding all that cream inside. ------------------------------------ Lychee Yakult- perfect as is. It tastes a bit like yakult+ lychee boba which is great, well balanced and you can taste both flavors which lend to the overall drink. ------------------------------------ The cherry on top was the free Labubu with my purchase ( I ended up getting Loyalty) but overall, the baked goods they make here are quite good. It's a little off the main shopping street in Flushing but not too far. These cakes are basically made for the quintessential Asian who often doesn't like their desserts too sweet. I will say, I'm kind of the antithesis to most Asians though, I have a huge sweet tooth and I would love to see a bit more Western flavor profiles mixed into some of these cakes, whether that's denser cake, sweeter creams, or more out there combinations on top of the pastries they have now!

    I recently visited @sweetcakenewyork, and I have to say, it was a delightful experience from start to finish and prices are reasonable. I tried the unique Taro Mochi Croissant and it was outstanding. The croissant had a perfect balance of flavors and a flaky, buttery texture that melted in my mouth. Everything tasted fresh and clearly made with care. Matcha Cranberry attracted my attention so I decided to get it. It was fabulous. Everything was delicious and it is hard to pick just one. I love that they have my fave flavors, Matcha, Taro and Ube. This place is a hidden gem (or well-loved local favorite), and I'll absolutely be returning. Whether you're after a quick coffee, a loaf of artisanal bread, or a decadent dessert, @sweetcakenewyork delivers on all fronts.

    This is a cute café/bakery on Northern Blvd. right off of Main Street. They have a few tables inside for those who want to dine in. I thought the desserts were a little on the pricey side and I saw one dessert with a price point of $11.99...yikers. Considering, I can get a slice of cake nearby for around $8, it may not be the best value here. I found the service was friendly. Their selection of desserts seemed limited but perhaps it was because of the time of day which I went - around 4:30p. They also didn't have a menu posted up anywhere where I could study their drinks to decide what I wanted. I had to decide the minute I got to the register because that was the only place where they had a menu! The double layer chocolate cream cake was good but the purple cream puff was not my favorite....tasted a bit like matcha cream which is usually a bit too chalky for my liking. One thing I did love was the clear/transparent cake boxes they had for people who bought whole cakes....so nice to be able to see the cute designs of the cakes!

    Taro Vanilla Cake and Hot White Peach Oolong Milk Tea
    Will N.

    Everything is as pretty in person as it appears online! The Taro Vanilla cake nails the "sweet but not too sweet" flavor. Very natural, I would say, and tasty. It is nearly $10, but as I was eating it, it did feel larger than I had anticipated, so I wouldn't mind getting it again or trying another flavor. The Hot White Peach Oolong Tea is a light drink as well. I wish it stays warmer for longer though. The ice definitely cools it all down, but I'm not sure if that's my ordering mistake. The cafe ambience is perfect for a study session or friend catch-up during my Sunday evening visit. The service isn't the most hospitable during my time and the main, if not the only, reason I'm not rating 5 stars.

    Boba ube cream puff
    Linda W.

    Sweet cake is a very clean and nice cafe. They have big clean tables and also tons of outlets. The girl who helped me was super nice and attentive. She did not rush me and let me explore. It wasn't busy at all, but she was very welcoming. Prices are decent and desserts are delicious. I took off one star because the cake fell apart in transport. The cake is mostly soft cream so it's very easy to fall apart. I loved the way they boxed the cake. Maybe next time I get different cake that's not as delicate. The cake was very good. Their desserts are beautiful and tasty. Not very sweet which I prefer. The creampuff wasn't as good as I thought it would be. The filling tasted more like taro filling than ube. The shell was crunchy but tasteless. Next time I'll probably try their other cakes.

    Been coming back to get their cakes. Probably the best in flushing! It's a Taiwanese owned bakery with the lots of delicious baked goods, gotta try their egg tarts. You would be surprised.

    I stopped by here on a Saturday evening at around 7 pm and I was absolutely charmed by the place! It was very spacious and quiet, with a few people studying and some chatting. I was greeted by a sweet lady behind the counter and took a look at all the cakes and pastries, which were all very aesthetic and had unique flavors! I bought a sesame basque burnt cheesecake ($~11) and a strawberry yakult cheesecake (~$11). Since I bought two cakes, I was able to get a free smoothie, so I ordered the mango yakult smoothie. I took these all to-go and they provided the cutest bag, which both cakes packaged individually and securely. I tried both cakes when I got home, and really enjoyed the flavors of both! I liked the sesame cream and the mochi bites on the sesame basque cheesecake. The strawberry of the strawberry yakult cheesecake was fresh, and the cake itself was very light, not too sweet. The mango yakult smoothie was also delicious, though it was more of a slush than a smoothie since it was pretty icy. I saw they had an ube cream puff but it was sold out when i was there, so I plan on come back another time to try it! Plus, it seems like a sweet study spot with lots of space and outlets.

Not only are they opened later than a lot of dessert places that I have found in flushing but their desserts are also great! This time around my friends and I got the Fresh Coconut Pudding with Golden Crisp Rice and it did not disappoint. Firstly, the pudding in itself was not overly sweet but had a strong coconut flavor. The texture was perfect in the sense that the pudding wasn't too hard inside and the golden rice crisp was a delicious finish on top. It added a nice crunch to the bite and also gave like a toasted coconut feel when tasted together with the pudding. The second thing we got was like a durian mango sago. I am a big fan of durian so I really enjoyed this dessert. The durian was perfectly sweet and custard and the mangos were sweet but tangy giving the dessert a little more depth. Although I only got two desserts this time around, I do want to point out that their shaved ice is not something that you should miss out on either. I have had many of the flavors and have never been disappointed. It is super fluffy and milky and just melts as soon as it hits your tongue. It is something that I order majority of the time that I dine in (they have a big variety so I just switch it up). The experience at this dessert shop is always great and since they have a call button for whenever you need a server, it feels a little more intimate and private!

I walked into a space that immediately feels different from a typical bubble tea shop because coconut is clearly the focus rather than just another menu option. The shop has a clean, bright setup that matches the fresh, tropical vibe of the desserts, and the display makes it easy to see what is available before you even order. The menu revolves around fresh coconut in all kinds of forms, from drinks and puddings to shaved ice and desserts. I started with one of their coconut-based drinks, and what stood out right away was how natural everything tasted. The sweetness felt like it was coming from the ingredients themselves rather than being buried under syrups. The fresh coconut flavor was clean, refreshing, and surprisingly light. Even though many of the drinks are creamy, they never felt heavy, and the coconut water base in some options kept the drinks from becoming cloying. The mango coconut pudding was easily one of the highlights. The combination of ripe mango and coconut worked incredibly well together, with the fruit adding brightness while the coconut pudding provided a smooth, creamy texture. The pudding itself had a delicate consistency that felt somewhere between a dessert and a drink, making it easy to finish quickly. The coconut pudding drinks are worth ordering if it is your first visit because they showcase what makes the shop unique, and the layers of coconut cream and fruit come together in a way that feels thoughtful and well balanced. What I also appreciated was the variety. While coconut is the common thread throughout the menu, there are enough combinations with fruits, taro, and other ingredients that it never feels repetitive. The shaved ice options add a colder, more textured option, and the coconut jelly toppings give you something to chew on between sips. Everything is made fresh to order, which can mean a bit of a wait during busier periods, but the quality makes it understandable. The drinks come out looking as appealing as they taste, and the presentation adds to the overall experience. The staff were friendly and helpful when explaining the menu, especially since some of the items may be unfamiliar if you have never visited a coconut-focused dessert shop before. They took the time to walk through the different options and offered recommendations based on what I was in the mood for. Service felt welcoming, and even when the shop got busy, the team managed the flow without making the experience feel rushed. Good Coconut feels like a refreshing alternative to the standard dessert and bubble tea spots. The ingredients taste fresh, the coconut flavor is genuinely front and center, and the desserts manage to be satisfying without feeling overly sweet. If you enjoy coconut, this is the kind of place that can quickly become a repeat stop, offering a menu that rewards exploration and delivers a clean, refreshing take on coconut-based treats.
