Just tell her your budget and she will make suggestions accordingly never with an over sell approach. Instead of saying a pound and a half of chocolate, she does not fret if I say but I will pick out even if it goes over. One of each truffle, six dark choc cherries, a few orange peels, two peanut butter cups, a few mints ....oh not yet pound and half just finish with non perils please. she still has a smile and even offers ribbon although she knows its not a gift. Last Saturday she moved from Tulip Acenue to Covert Avenue on Stewart Manor side (almost across from Raindew parking lot). they have Italian ices too,,,.. I can't wait to fill up my supplies and visit her new shop. Its only a mile move and for me, its same amount of distance 1/2 mile. VISIT and say you read this review on line

They also have toys and boardgames. This is a small general store located inside Bobb Howard's Service Station, and it is packed with so much fun stuff! Take the kids/grandkids there, and show them what "real" candy uses to be. What a fun place! Get on their mailing list to get notification of their fun events. And while you're going down memory lane, why not get an oil change for your car! Haha

Food: This bakery is a small chain and seems like a local favorite in Long Island. I am not from…read morethe area but came here for a wedding cake tasting recently and also picked up a few items. There was a constant long line of customers during our wedding cake tasting. Bakery items are fresh and good quality. My favorite item was the hazelnut eclair and chocolate eclair with vanilla cream. Both were delicious! Service: Staff were friendly and helpful during our cake tasting. Ambiance: This is a pretty large bakery with a few tables and chairs for eating. Tables are small and each fit 2-3 people at most. Overall, I would recommend this bakery!

TLDR: no menu pricing on display, line concept similar to Marthas bakery, $$ items, mediocre items…read more I came on a whim to try it for the first time! i was told by a few folks that this bakery is the original of its other locations, but that the quality has dropped. I still decided to try it out! wait time was about 25 minutes until we got serviced. We got an individual cheese cake ($6), french pastry (oreo solo cheesecake) ($7.45), elephant ear ($6,75), and small iced coffee ($4.50). it was 4 items for $25. The original cheesecake had a sour ting to it. The oreo cheesecake was better but both were not amazing. The elephant ear pastry was stale but a large size (see pic). The coffee is from la columbe beans. Overall, I was not impressed with my first time here. Items are overpriced for the quality. Not a must try for your first time unfortunately

Sept 11 I was…read moreinspired by a new friend that I recently had an opportunity to meet. I saw her post and got kind of Jealous. Only because I have been too Dolce Gelateria before and never gave my review. That being said. Yazmine thank you for the inspiration to visit and give a review. Moving along!! Dolce Gelateria provides accessible entry and there is parking in front away front away from the traffic on Franklin Ave. This is a beautiful gelato parlor. The staff are always welcoming, and you are warmly greeted upon entrance. Things I love about Dolce Gelateria* KI love the outdoor seating. I love the suggestive selling, they inform the customers of the various products for sale, regardless if you buy or not. I love the samples they give. I sampled the mango Gelato. D'licious! I love how they give you a cup and you have more than one flavor., I was asked if I wanted to mix the mango gelato, I kept it one flavor. I also love the prices; it is within my budget. So, I guess by now, one can make an accurate assumption that I purchased the mango gelato and enjoy it immensely . I repeat, it was very D'licious. It is now one of my favorite taste. I purchased the tiramisu; its taste was distinctive and prominent. It deserves to be eaten alone so that your taste buds can savor the flavor for maximum appreciation. I also purchased Coffee flavor. I normally do French vanilla with this flavor, but they did not have it. The Tiramisu was in the same cup as the coffee, I would have preferred a solo cup. I ordered the carrot cake and found it very tasty, and a red velvet was comped, also delicious. I tried the lactose free flavor just to taste but that's not me! But still... Inspire more, Yelp more!

This time I came in for gelato and was blown away. I tried the strawberry gelato which was an absolute 10/10 rich, and delicious. But the real star of the show was the coconut! Wow it easily became my absolute favorite flavor. They have such a huge variety of gelato flavors and mouthwatering desserts displayed that I still need to go back and try. To top it off the spot is super dog friendly! They offer plenty of indoor and outdoor seating if you just want to sit back, relax, and hang out wonderful service such as beautiful location

Instead I got a bunch of blank stares looking like "excuse me, we have gossip to talk about and you're interrupting it" before another girl walked over very friendly asking how I was and what I'd like to order. Only got a French Toast bagel with butter & syrup & could feel the other girls not wanting me to be there. I was once young myself & had "friends" who worked there who were the center of drama in their circles, so it wasn't quite a shocker to me. I'm sure if any of the older ladies who were probably off for Mothers Day were there, the ship would have been ran a bit more tight. Also came home to my bagel barely having any butter or syrup on it which I could put more on myself, but for almost $4 it would be nice to have it be more filled.

The owner was really nice, she was definitely friendly. As for the bagel it was good and fluffy. I have this thing with bagels they have to be big and fluffy.
