If we are in the area. We might stop by to pick up coffee and a pastry to nosh. One of the questions Yelp asks: is it pricey? It may seem that way, but you're paying for quality, and you get it. There are a few tables inside that seat four and some under the overhang. It's the baked goods that are the showstoppers. All of them are beautiful to look at and a delight on the tongue. They are not excessively sweet. It seems their forte is wedding cakes. read more

I really had high hopes. But, they did not meet my expectations I had. The smaller cupcakes were very dry. They all lacked flavor. It was as if they were sitting out for a while. I never ate them in full. I noticed they make tiered cakes. I'm wondering if that's where things rock for them. Pricing was on point with so many other locations. They are $3 for the standard size and I think $5 for the larger ones. The smaller ones are worth $2-$2.50, not $3. My order was actually wrong. I stated I wanted a vanilla cupcake with vanilla icing, a chocolate cupcake with vanilla icing, and a red velvet. I never got the chocolate cupcake, it was a vanilla cupcake with chocolate icing. While the one employee was getting my cupcakes packaged up there was another employee standing behind the cookie display. I asked if she was able to pack up some cookies for me. She said, "nah, she will get it." Then walked behind/near the girl packing my cupcakes. So I gave up and never got cookies. I Lastly there were two employees standing in the back near the window eating food. I felt that was not very professional. After everything I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Pastry Garden never lets me down with options for the whole family. I always know I can depend on finding something gluten free or vegan, when needed. They even have dog treats. I haven't had a single thing that has been short of perfection. I love all the variation during the holidays and the staff is really nice. I feel great bringing my business here and it's the only bakery I go to. read more

The Pastry Garden has been in Poughkeepsie for years, and there's a reason people keep going back!Their cupcakes are fun and unique, especially the cannoli one. I bought the turkey rice crispy treats for Thanksgiving, and they were cute, delicious, and fairly priced at three dollars each. The macaroons are so pretty, and the pies looked so good that I found myself wishing I had ordered one. Staff is so sweet! Thank you! read more

If you want a delicious slice of fancy cake and don't want to waste your money on store bought cake that never quite hits, go to Pastry Garden instead! I have had their cakes at weddings, and I always hear everyone ask where it's from. I decided to stop in on my work lunch break and get one slice of cake which was ~$6 and a good size. I had white cake and raspberry mousse frosting. It was indeed out of this world. They have many cakes to try, big unique cupcakes, and typical bakery cookies. It is very clean inside with a few tables. Now I think I need to buy a full cake for Easter.. that one slice I had the other day, OMG. read more

Great and quaint place! You can tell they are really popular in the neighborhood. Everything looked delicious.

They even do special occasion cakes. It is nice to see more shops making this effort. read more

Picked up this cute mini Frankenstein white cake with a chocolate filling. It's about 4 average slices. Tasted good, wasn't a fan of the frosting. I have purchased many cakes at the Pastry garden and they're usually pretty good. Service is always great. Their mini desserts is always a go to plus their amazing chocolate moose cake. Cannoli cupcakes are delicious. Lots of great variety to choose from. If you're friends with them on Facebook, they sometimes post their specialty cakes for a discounted price. read more

We were doing a taste test with my SIL in particular with the napoleons. The ones here are filled with delicious custard (not whipped cream).

T. We came here to buy a vegan birthday cake. I called and they explained it would be frozen cakes but only needed an hour to thaw. This wasn't a problem because we had several hours before we'd be eating it. While there we ordered an apple strip ( basically an apple turnover without being shaped like a turnover). It was okay, a little t on oo sweet for me and the crust was a little soggy. Not really crispy at all. But it tasted fine. We ate it in the shop. There are a couple of tables that were all clean. The store itself was well kept, the people working there were all friendly. And the cake was delicious. read more

I absolutely love The Pastry Garden! I first tried one of their cakes at a friend's wedding and they loved it so much they continue to order the same cake (strawberry shortcake with vanilla custard) for all of their celebrations. When we got married one of their cakes was included and we were so pleased with not only the cake but the experience. The bakery itself is very bright and has a nice selection of treats as well as their wedding displays. Stephanie the owner is a pro at what she does and was so incredibly warm and welcoming. The samples we tried were all delicious but we settled on chocolate cake with strawberry preserves and chocolate ganache - we ironically didn't have a chance to eat the cake at our wedding & are counting down until our anniversary to dig into it! We've since become regulars for their Italian cookies and coconut macaroons. They have so many options for cake fillings that there's something for everyone - my brother in law is dairy free & they did an amazing job at making him a Black Panther inspired birthday cake that was also vegan. It was literally the shape of the panther helmet & they nailed it. read more

Have you ever had a slice of wedding cake that you actually like, no less, couldn't stop eating? I have and it was at my own wedding, provided by Pastry Garden. A 100% beautiful, 100% vegan, 100% delicious wedding cake can be your reality, too. I went in for my consultation 2 months prior to my wedding. I was happy to see some vegan offerings right there in the display case. My god, everyone is so nice here, from the people working the counter to Stephanie, the owner, with whom I met for about a half hour. It was such an enjoyable conversation and I loved hearing about how her and her husband's business has grown since it opened 35 years ago. She told me that her granddaughter is vegan, so I knew I was in caring hands with my cake! I tried several options, vanilla and chocolate cakes with a variety of fruit fillings. All were incredibly moist and the perfect level of sweetness. I even liked the icing, despite being known to scrape off icing. I went with a black forest cake (there are two cherry options, sour and sweet... I was undecided but Stephanie said the sweet would be the more popular choice so I went with that). Icing color: I wanted a dark purple icing. Stephanie experimented on tge spot with the color and got the perfect shade that could be attained without affecting the flavor of the icing. Our florist added flowers and if you look at my photo, you'll see the perfect wedding cake (IMO). I couldn't stop eating it for days! As we speak, I am thinking about the box in my freezer containing the "good luck" cake that I am not supposed to to touch for another six months. It's extremely hard to resist especially during these rough times. I can't make any promises that this cake won't be touched until October. Adding Pastry Garden to businesses that I'll be visiting once businesses reopen so that I can sample more of their delicious vegan offerings. read more

I would give six stars if I could! The Pastry Garden in Poughkeepsie made the most beautiful three tier cake for my Sweet Sixteen birthday party. The service was wonderful when we first met with the owner and she was incredibly generous with her time making sure my voice got heard in what I was looking for and in relation to my Beauty and the Beast Disney theme. As soon as I got there, I knew I was in the right place. They have a nice display and a team ready to help with any questions, and I will definitely be coming here again for my future birthdays. The owner and the other staff made me feel better about any worries I had, and worked great with my venue! I had chosen a picture off of Pinterest and was looking for a few changes to it with my name written in the middle, and the skillful team at Pastry Garden ended up making this cake look even better than I could have ever imagined or wished for. It looks like it's out of a movie! When I was unsure of the flavors I was looking for, she showed me this incredibly detailed list and let me choose with as much time as I needed some samples which were then made and definitely eaten in full-- they smelled delicious and tasted even better, just like all of the sweets at this location! They even let us take the little extra bits home, and the cake was a centerpiece in almost all of my photos and all of my guests could not stop raving about how delicious it was!!! I must have had at least three different kids ask what the flavors I had chosen were- a spiced cake with mousse inside, which is now a family favorite! read more

Very cute store and gives off a wedding hall vibe for sure when entering. The counter people were pretty friendly and answered any questions like pros. I do have say I enjoy the variety they have here, between cakes,brownies,cheesecake,cookies,cakepops,ricecrispytreats and even treats for dogs as well, got all the bases covered. The turtle, salted caramel and raspberry lemon cake bombs, all three of them were absolutely yummy, the cakes inside them were all very soft and moist, all the fillings were buttery soft, and shells were great, plus something I never seen in cake bombs was a chocolate lattice cookie as the base for cake and cream, definitely the chef's kiss to artisan cakes. Now blondie brownie, I have said its top tier, soft and chewy with plenty of nuts and chocolate chips, plus the icing on top, i could not tell if maple flavored or not, but I would love a cup of it to dip cookies in for sure. cannoli were pretty standard among all pastries, but still a great treat. definitely will have try more if am in the area and love that open later i noticed the other bakeries which is a huge plus. read more

We ordered two cakes from the pastry garden, one slightly non-traditional wedding cake and one sculptural cake as a grooms cake. The first cake was a sculpted dragon Rice Krispy topper on top of a 20-person sheet cake that looked like an old, mystical book. Every detail, from the individually sculpted scales on the dragon to the rivets on the spine of the book, were immaculate! The cake was a white cake with a chocolate fudge layer that was delicious. For our wedding cake, we chose to have a blue cake with handpiped buttercream flowers. We also had sculpted cats that exactly matched pictures of our cats that we gave them. The filling was cookies and cream, and chocolate cake with vanilla frosting, which was good. The quality of the design and execution was phenomenal. Highly recommend, especially for sculpted cakes. read more

I gave a 3 for the taste. but for design i was very disappointed with the outcome of the cake. To make matters worst I paid an additional $400 to make my wedding cake a dream come through. I had burgundy rose to be delivered to pastry garden to be put on the cake and NOTHING WAS APPLIED. the gold design was more of a rustic color than Gold. To make matters worst it was lean. How proud and secure were you in delivering that for someone's wedding? If the design was too complex say something. read more

In the past, I have found The Pastry Garden to be mediocre with the exception of their chocolate mousse cake. Pastries tend to be bland and I'm not sure if they use real butter in the butter cookies. It's been a while and my sweet tooth was acting up so my daughter and I headed over to give them another go. The large cupcakes were beckoning. Our selection: Holy cannoli, Boston cream, red velvet, s'mores, lemon, and carrot. My daughter really enjoyed the carrot, my son liked the Boston cream. I tried the cannoli which was a interesting in theory, but not so much on the execution. The chocolate cake was heavy and dry with very little chocolate flavor. The ganache topping was sprinkled with stale cannoli bits.. I decided to give the smores a try. The same cake recipe topped with a thin layer of marshmallow cream enrobed in chocolate ganache and gram cracker crumbs. All in all, I got the impression that the cupcakes had been previously frozen which was a turn off considering the steep price. The moral of the story; don't be lured in by looks. You can't judge a cupcake by its cover. read more

The Pastry Garden is renowned for their carrot cake, so when it came time to get my husband's birthday cake for his 30th birthday, I knew I had to go to them. I also got assorted cupcakes. They were so friendly and helpful throughout my experience. There was a hiccup with my order. I was initially told they could do something on buttercream icing, which it turns out they could not. When I got the call they were very apologetic. I told them to do their thing as I trusted their expertise and I was not disappointed. The cake came out beautifully! Carrot cake is my husbands favorite and he is still raving about it. The cupcakes were also a hit. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND The Pastry Garden. Their bakers are highly skilled, their service is impeccable, and they go above and beyond. read more
