I recently used Sydney's Sweets to make a birthday cake for my girlfriend's 30th birthday and I was blown away!!! I told them I wanted a cake in the shape of a Michael Kors bag and what I received exceeded all of my expectations!!! I couldn't believe how perfect the cake looked, but the taste was even better!! Their motto is right on point lol. I got so many compliments on the cake but all the props go to Sydney's Sweets. I loved this cake so much that I had to write my first yelp review and I've had a yelp account since 2009...smh. I've also been to their shop to try their cupcakes which are also delicious and are actually worth the drive from Brooklyn to Long Island. Trust me...if you have any cake needs, Sydney's Sweets is where it's at! Thank you guys so much!!!!! read more

I ordered a cake from here as a test cake because i'm interested in getting a cake for a big birthday party in November and wanted to give them a try to see if it was worth it. I got the cake for my dad's surprise birthday party and they were able to accommodate my order a week before the party, which was great. Because they're only open three days a week, I was able to e-mail back and forth with the owner easily and place my cake order, I was even able to pay online! Which made it super convenient. As for the cake, I paid a very reasonable price for my cake, which was an excellent start. Now the cake itself was absolutely DELICIOUS. This is coming from someone who is hard to please, as i'm very particular about how things are made. The cake I ordered was a butter cream frosted tres leches cake with custard filling and fresh fruit. The cake was a huge hit for everyone in my family, which again is rare, even my dad who is also picky about desserts and cakes absolutely loved it. Everyone in my family was asking where I got the cake! So I definitely think i'll be ordering my cakes from here moving forward. read more

So so good!! My best friend got me a birthday cake from Sydney's last minute because another bakery messed up the order! I am so glad that she ended up here!!! The cake was delicious and beautiful! I will be going back there again! read more

Sydney's Sweets - This cake was amazing!! It was like eating a homemade cake from mom! I will definitely be going back !! - Desserts Near Me - West Hempstead, New York

Sydney's Sweets never disappoints I've never had a custom cake from them but I've tried almost every flavor cupcake . I look forward to their cupcake of the week every week . My favorite changes from time to time but you really can't go wrong with any of their treats . Customer service is great and I never have issues finding parking . Definitely a must visit if you have a sweet tooth. read more

I was in a cake jam and Sydney's pulled me out of it. My coworker referred me to Sydney's Sweets after another bakery failed to respond to my requests. I emailed Sydney's Sweets on a Tuesday and they were able to make my cake for that Saturday! (Yay #1) I gave them a picture of what I wanted and not only did they replicate it, they did an even better job! (Yay #2) THEN THERE WAS THE CAKE....oh. my. goodness. (YAY #3) It was coconut flavor. It was delicious. Everyone was amazed how moist and yummy it was. This is some good cake I tell ya. You know how all these beautiful cakes go "womp, woooommmp" once you taste them? Not here. No way. Their "where cakes taste even better than they look" speaks gallons of sweet truth. I will be getting my cakes from here from now on. (Oh, and guess what? They have cupcakes!) read more

220$ for this confetti cake. Tasted good but... I felt like the cake could have been better when stacking. Like you could see the platform that separated the two tiers. I also asked for the two ninja turtles to be sitting on the same side sitting together, but I got them sitting in different sides. Just felt overall it was not 100pct exactly what I wanted, but overall it was cute and the cake was indeed tasty. Very moist. She did well on that. Also, I'm pretty sure I was a pain to deal with so the service was pretty good. Not once was she impatient with me which I appreciated because i was juggling a few vendors while hosting this party. I would give them a 3.75 but would round up because of her patience with me. I would be open to trying them out again for my next event but probably wouldn't ask for something like this again. read more

Sydney's Sweets - The photos of the cake is what I asked for and the photo on the left is what I got. - Desserts Near Me - West Hempstead, New York

I'm very disappointed in my last order and the way I was treated when I expressed that. They provided desserts for many occasions of mind and this last one was poorly executed and not up to their standards. I sent multiple inspiration photos for my daughters trolls birthday party that reflected the color scheme of the party. What I received was nowhere near what I showed him. It was neon colors that was far from the theme and not once shown in any of the pictures sent. The attention to detail was slacking. The rainbow on the bottom of the cake (not even true rainbow colors like asked) wasn't shaped correctly. Instead of a true arch it was sloppy and not worth what I paid. The treats were delicious as always I just was very unhappy with him not providing what was asked. Regardless of all of this what was the most upsetting is when we told him how I felt he didn't even apologize!!! He said and I quote "it's unfortunate she's unhappy. Though if that's her reaction after all that I gave her I don't know what to say ‍" that is probably the most unprofessional response I have ever received and for that reason and that reason alone I will never be using them again. I don't suggest using this company if customer service is a top priority read more

Decided to get a cake for my upcoming graduation from nursing school. After researching a few places, I decided to contact Sydney's Sweets. I emailed a few pics of cake ideas and was contacted very promptly with pricing. A couple of days later , my husband and I decided to stop into the bakery and finalize our order. Sydney was super sweet and very helpful (even after I broke one of her chairs)..lol. She suggested ideas and helped create the perfect graduation cake. My order was ready on time and was delicious. I would definitely recommend this bakery if your in search for an awesome cake. The only thing that I would suggest for the bakery is having bite size samples of the different options so that you have a better idea of your options. Overall, try this bakery! read more

They were extremely unprofessional. Made me discuss the cake with them via text and then just wanted $ before even asking what type of cake or filling I wanted. I sent a picture of the exact cake I wanted and described the writing on it. Charged $200 for a cake that didn't have the proper writing, flowers, and was way too small. When I contacted them about it they didn't even have the courtesy to respond. Extremely disappointed because I used them a few years ago but it seems things have really gone down hill. read more

Thank you for the amazing birthday cake ! It was beautiful . M&M cake, everyone asked who did it.

The best! I was introduced to her through the photographer that took my son cake smash(janinieleighphotography) and the execution of the cake design was beautiful to fit the baby shark theme so I used her service for his 2nd birthday this year, the design and flavor was amazing! I look forward to continue using Syndney and her team services for many more birthdays to come read more

I stumbled upon this place on fb and decided to give it a try. Its location is in a mini shopping plaza and you can pass by it without noticing it. I arrived and was greeted by one of the owners Jermaine, he explained to me all the different cupcakes, custom cakes they have to offer. They do not offer ready made cakes, every cake has to be order, the turn around time depending on the cake can be 1-2 weeks. They do accept major credit cards but its a $10 min. I decided to try the chocolate, pina colada, carrot cake, and vanilla cupcakes. The cupcakes were very moist and delicious. I definitely will be returning again. read more

These are the best cakes in town!! They're deadly and are best at interrupting diets lol

I have no complaints about this place! I order a mini cake for my mother's 50th birthday and they were very helpful and patient along the process they were not very expensive I actually thought it was a good price and with me being out of state it was easy for me to pay and communicate with them. The cake was beautiful and went perfect with our theme and it was very tasty! We had a red velvet cake read more

I went to Sydney's sweets on whim yesterday after seeing their IG. I was not disappointed. I have not had cupcakes that taste this good in a while. The strawberry and carrot cake/pecan are my faves, along with the red velvet. Soft, fresh and just the right amount of sweet. Will be coming back soon. read more

These guys saved my husband's birthday and did a great job with the cake, so much that he wouldn't have cut it, if it weren't for our hungry guests! I called them up a little too late asking for a cake of Bag End because my husband and I are LOTR fanatics, and they were extremely accommodating and managed to deliver it on time. I have to mention, this was my first time ordering such a service and Jermaine made everything seamless. The cake was exactly how I wanted it and tasted great too. I did, however, end up making a few little additions of my own, like the trees, the figurines and the cobblestones around the pathways, and it turned out to be every 35-year old geek's dream :) Thank you guys! Will definitely order again :) read more

Sydney's Sweets - So happy with the final result :D - Desserts Near Me - West Hempstead, New York

Sydney's Sweets made a beautiful two-tiered semi-naked carrot cake for my daughter's bridal shower. It was lovely to look at and more importantly moist and delicious! Jermaine was extremely pleasant to deal with and very accommodating to our needs. Service was excellent and the cake was scrumptious!! Highly recommended. read more

Picked Sydney's Sweets for my baby shower after tasting their cupcakes! The cake was beautiful and delicious! People commented specifically on how when you usually see a nice specialty cake it doesn't necessarily taste half as good as it looks, but this cake was one of the best many guests said they ever had! So many people asked where it was from. Will definitely be my go-to for specialty cakes going forward. read more

Sydney is incredibly talented and I'm so glad I chose her for my custom cookie order. She was able to replicate the cookies I wanted via one single photo! And did it to perfection! AND the cookies tasted amazing. Not overly sweet or chalky as some other decorated cookies can be. They were a huge hit for an ocean themed Bridal shower! I reached out to her over Memorial Day weekend and she STILL responded! My order was ready within 5 days. A+++ for service, taste, and quality! I will always choose Sydney for custom cookie or cake orders moving forward!! read more

Unbelievably moist cakes/cupcakes. So delicious! Black owned! What more could you want from a small business? Will definitely return!

Delicious cupcakes. Always tasty, orders always accommodated and easy transaction. Wish the display case gave a nicer first impression. It's often empty and not very inviting. I brought out of town family here and they were hesitant to try. Wished the look of the store matched the quality of these delicious treats! read more

The owner falsely accused me of racism because of a nasty neighbor who hated me for no reason.She went in there and told him that I said the N word about her and her family. It never happened. The girl,Aterah was sick.She had spread lies about me before.So one day I went in to get a cupcake.He comes out of the back after I had finished paying.Took the cupcake away from me saying, " you know what you did". Ummmm.... Yeah been a good citizen of West Hempstead for 44 years but Still get treated like crap.( not only from him). I am a good person and didn't deserve that. Those neighbors were one hundred percent abusive to me,and I am Not racist. read more

Tasty cakes, cupcakes are ok. I tried three flavors, carrot, red velvet and the classic vanilla. My Fav is the red velvet. In my opinion, the others are extremely sweet. I ordered BBall team custom cake for my sons' fourteen Bday party and the cake was on point. read more

I stopped by to pick up a few cupcakes for my boyfriend for his birthday and he absolutely loved them!! Thanks again !

Sydney's Sweets is definitely one of the best bakeries around! Sweet, moist, flavorful, simply delicious! My faves are the red velvet and the carrot cake cupcake.

BUYER BEWARE!!!!! So, I decided to try this place out because my wife wanted to have cupcakes for her birthday and though there weren't many reviews on Yelp, the ones that were there were mostly positive. I went inside and was a little disappointed because there were slim pickings in the store showcase. There are about 8 or 10 different varieties of cupcakes, but most slots were empty. I decided to give them a try anyway. Boy, was I in for a shock! I picked out my cupcakes, and told the guy behind the counter that I also had a coupon to redeem for a free cupcake. He gave me my half dozen cupcakes and I told him which one I wanted to use for my complimentary one. He knew it was from Yelp and asked to see my phone to validate the free one. He then rang up my order. I was a little confused as to the total and asked him for a receipt. I did the math in my head and the total seemed a little off. I knew the prices, 2.50 for regular and 3.00 for specialty cupcakes, but was in a hurry and I had my kids with me, so I figured that the receipt would clear it up. Unfortunately, he stated that he was unable to furnish one at the time but would promptly email it to me. I got home an hour later and checked my email. Guess what??? No email, no receipt. I called the store, he apologized and said that he would send it shortly. He wasn't able to access the account from his IPad, which is what he apparently uses to manage transactions. He said that he would call me back after he finished with a customer. TWO HOURS LATER he called and I ask questions about the total. He stated that he didn't realize that he charged me for the complimentary cupcake, but would refund my money and redo the transaction over the phone. He then charged me for the cupcakes, tax, and "FEES" that he THOUGHT he'd mentioned when I was in the store. I corrected him, informing him that not only did he fail to mention that there were fee's associated with credit card purchases, but that there is not a sign in sight in his store to indicate that such a fee exists. I told him that I was not paying a fee that I was unaware of. He took my credit card information again, submitted a refund for the original purchase and charged my card for the corrected price of the cupcakes, tax and "FEES"!!!!!!!!!!!! When I realized what he had done, he said that he thought I was okay with it and offered to give me a few COMPLIMENTARY cupcakes. He can keep his cupcakes. The cupcakes that "taste better than they look", did not live up to the hype. It's not the amount of money that is important, it's the principle of the matter. read more

Wow this place is a little gem! We got cupcakes and cake pops and they were all perfection! I felt like I was cheating on my usual bakery, but I'm glad I did. This bakery has now been added to the rotation of our favorites. Moist, flavorful, and well priced. Nothing bad to say. Everything is made from scratch, no frozen product or par baked garbage. This is the real deal. Yum!! read more

Needed something for dessert so I did a Yelp search and found Sydney's. I'm usually skeptical of cupcake places because most times the cupcake is plain and only the frosting is flavored. But this place... Wow!! The display didn't have many cupcakes left when I walked in but I'm assuming it's because they sold them all. The strawberry banana and the caramel apple... Flavor sensation!! I will definitely be going back for a cupcake fix. The cupcakes were fresh, moist and really tasty. Please support this local business. read more

Was attempting to plan a small milestone birthday party that eventually ballooned into a larger celebration. Didn't want to deal with cake-cutting and opted for cupcakes instead. Originally considered a bakery in Brooklyn but chose to look locally for the purpose of convenience. Then I found Sydney's Sweets - BINGO! It was a Friday afternoon when I stopped by and I explained to Jermaine that the cupcakes were a last minute decision and that I would need them for the next day. He obliged. I ordered 3 dozen red velvet cupcakes and an individual cupcake for myself so I could taste the goods. All I can say is that I'm glad I was picking up the remaining cupcakes the following day or I may have eaten a few of the stash for the party. My worries about having cupcakes leftover after my party went away when my guests cleaned them out. I even went back a week later to purchase an assorted dozen - 6 for my coworkers and 6 for myself. So excited that I've found a local bakery with excellent customer service for future special occasions. read more
