The Pennsylvania Bakery is one of the few bakeries that are still around that offer everything imaginable as far as pastries cakes cookies in the list goes on and on and on. We stopped here yesterday to get some Christmas cookies and the reason why I'm only giving it four stars is because of the pricing , seems everything is a little on a higher side. They have an outstanding selection of all different types of Christmas cookies that you can pick from from the case and I do believe they were 24.95 a pound which seems a little high sorry. Everything is freshly prepared. The store is extremely cleaned, and the cases are filled with all kinds of goodies. It was crowded and you have to take a number during this time which usually goes very quick until they call your number .

Custom cake

Always a great spot to stop by for some sweets. Even made a custom cake as a treat! Camp hills go to spot for the pleasure, Never disappoints in the bakery feats :)

Cookie cake
Brittany E.

The cookie cake I custom ordered is beyond perfect. Thank you so much to the amazing decorators.

The service is quick and easy, once you walk-in take a number and wait to be called. The bakery has ample amount of people behind the counter that are ready and willing to help. I suggest if you are in Camp Hill area stop-in for plenty of tasty treats. My fav is the Cinnamon Raisin danish(Deelish) and the carrot cake yum.

I recently placed an order with The Pennsylvania Bakery, as I'm traveling to Georgia to see family this week. I ordered 2 large pecan sticky bun rings and peanut butter buns. Autumn was so nice and accommodating over the phone when I placed the order. I had asked that the sticky buns be wrapped so they stay fresh. Autumn assured me they would be baked the morning of pickup and wrapped for me for travel. Again, when my husband and I went to pick up the items today, everyone in the store was so nice and made sure we were being helped. My husband also purchased some Whoopie Pies. The bakery is always very nice and clean, all of their baked goods displayed so nicely! Thank you!!!!

Cake

Completely disappointed. We would go to PA Bakery to get cakes and desserts for every special occasion. It was/is more expensive but the quality (creativeness, design, taste) were the best, so it felt like money well spent. My husband ordered a 1/2 sheet cake for our soon to be 5 year olds party. It's an astrobot theme and he gave them photos of what it was. We asked to include a photo on the cake. All they did was scan the stupid photo on the cake and ice around the seams of the photo. They couldn't even blend the edges in or cut the photo sheet closer to the image to make it look better... or dye the icing blue/purple and add glitter to make it look like a galaxy behind him? It doesn't even look like they tried. it looks like a grocery store cake for $112! I could've done better myself but never would've guessed they'd be proud to let this leave their store simply based on how great their cakes & designs were in the past. Acceptable for a $60 grocery store cake... not a bakery.

Spoiled scone and chocolate chip loaf cake

Hello, today I purchased a scone that has a bitter sour taste, it wasn't fresh, it was spoiled. Last month I purchased a chocolate chip loaf cake, I put it in the frig, next day it had mold on it. I do have pictures attached. And I did call to advise the manager to remove the scones from the case so no one else would buy them and be disappointed. I asked for a manager,but the woman sounded like she didn't believe me. I advised her she should taste one. I look forward to hearing from someone with more customer service experience.

Great bakery with many options! For breakfast, they have unique breakfast sandwiches with things like pizza bread. Bagels and coffee are also available. They have unique bakes as well, some of the ones I have seen are: giant stuffed cookies, peanut butter cake shaped like a reeses cup, cupcakes decorated like characters, star wars cookies (May the 4th be with you). Some classics I recommend are: carrot cake and the fruit tart. If you want to try multiple things, they have an option for a dozen mini pastries where you can try multiple things.

Sugar cookie
Mandy N.

I used to come here with my friend 7 or 8 years ago when I still lived in the area. It used to be AMAZING! A local favorite. Last year, my friend bought a ton of sugar cookies with buttercream for my daughter and they were absolutely wonderful. I'm not sure if they're under new management, but the quality has gone WAY downhill. We traveled to the area to visit family and bought several sugar cookies for my daughter, to include the watermelon one pictured. It was covered in white chocolate(?) And the sprinkles are buttercream. It looked like they brushed food coloring on the actual cookie... We ordered several other cookies and they were all dry and not flavorful. I was super excited to try a lemon one and, much to my surprise, it didn't taste at all like lemon. I'm not sure how much my mom paid for everything, but judging by the other reviews, it was too much. Unfortunately, we probably will not be back.

Large Eclair Gingerbread Cheesecake  Santa Cupcake
Sara B.

My boyfriend and I bring his daughter here often because she loves picking out a cupcake. Their cupcakes and cakes are very nicely decorated but just average tasting. Not bad, but they look much better than they taste. There are a few items that I've had that were pretty good and I've enjoyed. A banana cream cheesecake, their fruit tarts, and their pumpkin Whoopi pies are a few of their things I've liked. I'll certainly keep trying different things!!

This is what they served me. This is carrot cake believe it or not absolutely do not recommend this place.

Massimo’s Italian Bakery - Pastries

I had been looking forward to trying this place since I heard about it. We went in after ordering…read moregyros from their neighbor. There was a variety of desserts, Italian bread and some Italian products. We got four strawberry shortcakes. I really like the creme but didn't care a ton for the bread. The strawberries didn't really have any flavor. I might try it again but would get something different.

I decided it was finally time for a little solo date night... with Massimos Italian Bakery. Nearly…read more6pm on a Friday, walking in alone, knowing I could choose anything I wanted and then sit at a cozy little table to destroy every last crumb in absolute peace? That's my love language. When I arrived, I was person three of three in the small bakery. Quiet and calm, except for a man around my age and a younger boy chatting at a table about basically every topic under the sun. The vibe was gentle, warm, and perfectly unhurried. I took my time browsing their pastry cases--very full pastry cases--and genuinely could have eaten one of everything. But tonight was a dessert-only mission, so I narrowed it down to two knockout items. First up: the easiest decision I've made in months. A HUGE chocolate-dipped cannoli roll filled with hazelnut crème. This masterpiece was absolutely heavenly. The chocolate coating was thick and rich (the kind that snaps when you bite it). The cannoli shell stayed crunchy, which is rare and beautiful. And the hazelnut crème? Smooth, whipped, sweet in that refined way where you feel delighted, not diabetic. Perfection. My second pick was smaller but impossible to leave behind: a Pistachio roll with glossy sweet frosting on the outside, perched on a crunchy cannoli puff, absolutely stuffed with pistachio filling. And let me tell you--this filling was to die for. Sweet, silky, pistachio-forward without veering into "pure nut paste" territory. Pistachio in baked goods can be hit-or-miss for me, but Massimo's nailed the balance. Honestly, they've nailed everything I've ever had from here. My total came to $10.20 including tip, and the value felt spot-on for the size, flavor, and quality of the pastries. Plenty of free parking right out front since it's in a small strip mall. And can we talk about their hours? They're open 7am-7pm, Tuesday through Sunday (closed on Mondays), which is practically unheard of for local bakeries. Those long hours make Massimo's an unbeatable post-dinner dessert stop or a sweet late-afternoon pick-me-up. Friendly staff, gorgeous pastries, shelves of grab-and-go treats, and the peaceful ambiance of a bakery that doesn't rush you. My first solo trip definitely won't be my last. Highly recommend treating yourself. You deserve it.

Tik Tok made me do it and I'm glad I did it!…read more My co-worker recently had been seeing some videos about the food at Newberry Cafe so of course we had to make a lunch time stop to see what everyone was talking about. Newberry reminds me of your hometown bakery where everyone gathers in the morning for their donuts and coffee before heading off to work. Very much like many of the shops in the Bel Air area. The employees are super nice at Newberry. Really taking their time to provide great customer service to each patron that strolls through the doors. Although it was lunch time we settled on breakfast sandwiches with homefries. And I of course had to grab a donut because it's a must, and a latte. The breakfast sandwich was just what you would want to start your day, a savory piece of meat and cheese on a soft bagel. But the star of the show was the homefries. Cooked and seasoned perfectly, crispy on the outside and a soft texture on the inside. We both loved the potatoes. My glazed donut was divine, pillowy with just the right amount of glaze to not make the donut too sweet. The latte was a little to sweet for me, but I'm a little finicky with the sugar level in many caffeinated drinks. All the times I've ventured into Bel Air I never thought to stop at Newberry and I'm glad I finally did. I'll definitely be back to try more of their yummy donuts and breakfast sandwiches in the future.
