    Lovely and neat boutique shop. Presents very well. Wide and interesting selections of cupcake and cookie options. The ice-cream scoop-sized ball of frosting on top of the cupcakes is an interesting concept. We tried a few different cupcake flavors. Unfortunately, all of the cupcakes were pretty dry. Parking can be tough at times...street parking along East Tremont or the nearby side streets.

    I stumbled upon this bakery while waiting for a tattoo shop to open. The Valentine's Day decor was very pretty. The shop is small but cute. They didn't have coffee so I was a little bummed but no biggie I got a cupcake anyway. I chose the Dominican Guava cupcake. I loved the frosting but I do wish it was spread out more. Eating the cupcake reminded me of twinkies and I loooved twinkies growing up! I wish the guava filling had a stronger guava flavor but overrall a good cupcake. Customer service was great.

    Ordered the 6 inch tiered cake, I believe, for my birthday. I went to them because they offered a plant based customizable cake. Ordered a simple Vanilla cake with a happy birthday topper and it was a bit pricier than I had hoped for the size... What made them loose a star for me was with the tall cake they gave me, the packaging was not proper, so transportation with the cake was a pain. I got it the day before my celebration and had to hold it carefully to in its half open box the whole ride home, then find space for it in my fridge and then transport it to the celebration site. The cake did it's job despite all this, it was soft and yummy and very sweet - like most vegan cakes.

    They made my vision come to life "First Trip Around the Sun" theme, even when I was unable to fully articulate such..Made my son's small family focused 1st a lovely one! Also had smaller "smash" cake for him as well. Mango/Dom Cake is the way to go! Their design, taste, service was A+..We will continue to use them for events. We also do cupcakes when sweet tooth arises..They are half off on Saturdays after certain time in afternoon

    One star is too much! When a business becomes too busy, that they forget customer service is important thats when you should avoid it at all cost. Called to try and order a cake and was left on hold for almost 20mins. Once I finally get someone to discuss my interest in ordering a cake I was told go to the website to see photos and call back (heads up custom cakes requires TWO weeks timeframe). I drive over an hour to the location to pick up "Ready to buy" Drip cakes and I requested to speak to the manager to see if at least I can get a look at one before paying for it. She refused to speak to me. Took my business elsewhere to say the least.

    I live out of state and I wanted to send my aunt a cake for what would have been her and my uncle's 58th anniversary. Instead, I'm sad to say, we were attending his memorial on that day. He always bought the "love of his life" a cake along with some other gifts. So, my husband and I wanted to send her a cake in his behalf. Laury, we can't thank you enough for making such a beautiful piece of art (cake). Words that was used by her and by cousins were- amazing, beautiful etc... They could not believe how something so beautiful, could also be so good Thank you for being in a business that you obviously have a passion for- Sheri

    Great service! I was able to call the day before and place an order for a birthday cake. The girl on the phone was very informative & pleasant. She took her time to describe what was available & provided additional ideas for cake flavor & decor. When I picked up the Cale the following day, it was ready on time & better than expected. It was beautifully decorated, very detailed. Everyone thought it was delicious too!!!!! Not only was it pretty to look at but also sooo yummy. It was fresh & moist and not overly sweet. We couldn't be happier. Also, many precautions during these Covid times. The girl instructed me to call before picking up to ensure that there weren't too many customers in the shop, signs to keep distance & masks worn at all times. Great experience & will def order again :)

    Finally!!!! I think I found my go to place for cupcakes. Its conveniently located 8mins away from home, and it's a small humbled store, but the samples of cake displayed looks of hard work ,uniqueness and very detailed. All the cakes on display were my style "vintage" looking They also have over 15 cupcakes of all different flavors to choose from and all of them looks so yummy, I just wanted to order 1 of each. The employees were very nice and welcoming even allowed my dog to enter. This is my second time buying from them and I haven't been disappointed yet, the cup cakes are moist, nice and spongy and the frosting is delicious!(frosting comes a little frozen) ( I like mine a little melted) I absolutely adore this place, great place to order a birthday cake, wedding cake, or a cake for a baby shower ect..... On their website shows that they specialize in personalized cake or cupcake decor. (Good to know) call in advance. I Love that! I will definitely return, probably every other week, my goal is to try each one!

    I took a class for artisanal cookies and it was amazing! I learned soo much and how Laury teaches anyone can learn! I recommend it 100 % plus the treats that you make tastes soo delicious!!!

    The owner is rude and unprofessional! Her attitude is always miserable. Also, the cake tastes like cardboard. I would not recommend.

    The cakes here are delicious. They are known for the Boston Cream pie but everything is great…read more The workers are courteous & professional. In a part of Morris Park that's changed, Conti's is a great asset. My constructive criticism on Conti's. I ordered 2 cakes online. Paid in full for both last week. They gave me a pickup window 9AM. I show up early & there's a big line. I ask a worker & she says there's 1 line. She states there's 1 line for picking up a cake paid in full, ordering a new cake, getting coffee, getting pastries. Guys NO GOOD! Why pay in full & order a week prior? You should have 2/3 lines. 1 line picking up cakes paid in full only. 1 bread line only. 1 line for new orders. I mean this criticism as constructive

    a pound of cookies went from $15 to $22 in a year. I understand the economy is bad, but 10 cookies…read morefor $22?? that's highway robbery. I remember when Conties would price the specialty cheesecakes to $30-$35 max. a 12inch pistatchio cheesecake is $46???? i know for a fact the employees dont get paid enough for the price of a cheesecake to increase that dramatically. one of the girls said the pies/cakes are made a week before they're sold, so the price on soon to expire pastries is insane. for $46 dollars I can get a larger and better quality cheesecake in Manhattan. The ladies behind the counter look unhappy and find every request to be inconvenient. this place is definitely ripping you off. UPDATE: I opened the box of cookies for my friend, she reached for the first cookie and as soon as she took a bite, she pulled out a blond hair from the cookie. $22 dollars for cookies full of hair. I'm never going back.
