Desiree A.

Amazing cake for my mom's 70th birthday. Cake was delicious and Mom Enjoyed it. Was exactly what I asked for.

Pumpkin cheesecake
Rawdon T.

Cant go wrong with cheesecake as long as there aint no dam fruit filling or topping its a win in my book. I came across this place while on a road test and decided to stop in. The woman behind the counter was very polite and helpful. I decided on the pumpkin cheesecake over the oreo one, but next time i will try the oreo. The pumpkin cheesecake was delicious but you should definitely let it thaw fully before you go digging in 2 broken forks later i learned that lesson. Great cheesecake and i will definitely try their other offerings.

Mermaid cake

This is still the place. I have noticed that the prices are a little higher but that is the world we live in today. I always place my order 2 weeks in advance just give them enough time for my creations. This year my daughter had a mermaid themed party and it was another showstopper. Here is a tip: if you are going order big cakes like this, pick it up on the day of the party because you forget how tall they are and the cake will not fit in the refrigerator.

supposed to be  strawberry shortcake I do not think so The top of the cake the strawberries were slice paper tin

Once again disappoint with Valencia bakery I ordered a Valentine cake strawberry shortcake oh no what happened don't what I went wrong there was no strawberries in the middle of the cake only on top of the cake mind you it's supposed to be a strawberry shortcake I think they forgot the strawberries I should say This company is getting worse and worse and worse every year guys stop the BS stop being cheap before your customers jump Ship and you guys start losing business keep up screwing your customers and you will lose your business Remember many years ago you guys were one of the top notch bakeries in New York City you guys are now are Nothing (1) Cake was not cheap $45 Small Cake. (2) supposed to be a strawberry shortcake that's Is a joke Where . (3) Cake was dry as Azz . (4) Where the heck are the strawberries for the strawberry shortcake there was none on the side and really nothing inside. (5) Valencia Cay used to be made with love and care now it feel like it made in China honestly (6) I was off better going to a local bakery and paying less money for a cake but knowing it was made with love and better decoration and flavoring and filling . (7) Is crazy my emoji cake looks better than the one I got lol .

In NYC, Dominicans have received the passed torch from the Puerto Ricans. Cake is no exception. Dominican cake may be extremely sweet, but it is also extremely good. Puerto Rican bakeries still exist, offering the treats usually found only on La Isla Bonita, and hold their own. But in the cake world, only one Puerto Rican bakery has stood the test of time. If you ask a Puerto Rican, "Where should I get a cake for X function?", the answer will be Valencia 9/10 times. Valencia has several locations but this is the HQ. Great cakes and prices, but flies in an aging, ugly store cost it two stars. PS There's a small coffee shop attached to the HQ, offering what you would expect.

VALENCIA 12" CAKE  8-19-2012  no pre-order
Eve P.

THE BEST! THEY HAVE NOT CHANGED Visited this location Sun Aug 19th 2012. I Walked in last minute and picked-up a 12" pineapple filled cake for my daughters B-Day. It was a HIT. We took it on a party boat and we all could not wait to get a piece. It was AS ALWAYS fresh and moist. It taste even better a day later out of the refrigerator..hmm It was beautiful, wish I could show a pic here. Very affordable too. A 12" serves approx 25 to 30 and cost approx $37 Thanks Valencia for making my last minute party cake a success!

Horrible job! Who writes "thank you" on a birthday cake? None of the lines are straight! I WON'T ORDER A CAKE FROM THEM AGAIN!

I have been an avid consumer for Valencia Bakery for over 30 years!! However, their customer service and cake decoration has gone down hill!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM ANY LONGER!! I ordered a cake for my daughter's birthday to be ready on Christmas Eve!! I brought them a picture of the drawing I wanted. ( mind you it was a picture from a thank you card). They asked what color did I want the trimming I indicated I wanted it pink. However, this not what I received!!! Instead of drawing they photo copied the picture!!! They photo copied the picture with the word "Thank You" and left it on the cake!!! Then put a horrible border around the pic that was not even and never requested!!! It was the worst cake decorating job I have ever seen!!! The Manager Victor had the nerve to say that the " thank you" on the cake was fine!!! ON TOP OF THAT THE CAKE TASTED OLD!!!!

Hands down some of the best cupcakes I've ever had! I'm looking forward to getting more!

She…read moreresponded to my emails, quickly provided me with lots of options and was always willing to accommodate based on my needs. It was so cool that she has such unique flavor combos I've never seen before. (Joys of small business!) If you like your cupcakes actually tasting like the flavors, you've come to the right place. I ordered 3 flavors for my vegan's friend going away party: 1. lemon curd, vanilla frosting - It was tart like sorbet but the vanilla balanced it out 2. Chocolate with almond filling & coffee frosting - The frosting packed a punch, the cupcake could replace my morning Mocha Latte. 3. Black sesame, almond, lemon - My favorite because of the surprising combination! If you don't like the flavors being as punchy, make sure to tell Darlene and she can adjust accordingly. All in all, I highly recommend trying Una's out. You will not be able to find another amazing vegan cupcake business with flavors anywhere else!

Its hard to find a solid bakery nowadays in NYC. A lot of the really good ones have closed down,…read moreand it makes it really difficult to find a quality bakery without all the fluff. The 7 layer cake is a beautiful work of art and the taste marches. Its a vanilla cake with chocolate frosting topped with strawberry and chocolate mouse. Note to the wise, don't make the same mistake I did. Always look at your cake once it is placed in the box. The display cake looked good, then I did not get to inspect the cake before it was placed in the box. Once I arrived home, I saw that the top part of the cake had a dent in the mouse and strawberry covering which made it look messy. It was an embarrassment to present it as such so I improvised by using the mother's day signage to cover up the blip. When I called to speak with the location about it they dealt with it very professionally and were apologetic about the situation and offered a comp. It was such a relief to have customer service go right after experiencing that.

TLDR: Surprisingly good vanilla lobster tail…read more Schmoop and I came here to check out the lobster tails, which is an Italian pastry we both love. We had low expectations, realizing it was in the middle of Times Square, assuming it would be a tourist trap like most places in Times Square. We were pleasantly surprised! It had really good crispness and delicious filling, which was vanilla forward (used to normal custard). Didn't try anything else except the lobster tail. They have other flavors as well -- we will try the Nutella flavored lobster tail next! AMBIANCE: Super small place (expected) so it's take away only. Would come back if I'm in the area again, although I tend to avoid due to crowds.

We didn't plan on stopping…read moreanywhere to grab dessert, however, this delightful bakeshop is right next-door to the establishment we went to get hot cocoa at. And boy oh boy are we so thankful that we decided to stop in and give them a try. I had the strawberry crunch cake which was filled with so many flavors and the most important flavor which was the strawberry crunch brought me back to my childhood with the good humor, strawberry crunch ice cream bars. My friend had the vanilla and chocolate cake and he said it was the best cake he's ever had. The customer service is just as great as the cakes. From the minute, we walked in to the minute we paid and were headed out the bakers the chefs and the owner were all amazing folks.

I do not know what we think we deserve list the south excellent cobbler I did not gobble at all you look .

I was bloated, stuffed and nauseated ready for the dumb and out of the ingredients. I do not know what we call our selves but none of this was from scratch. We are so use to eating junk we do not know what taste good. All I know is that was a waste of $20. What is wrong we us. No baker would agree. I got a head ache. So you deserve this review..Just dry and nasty. I am not use to this, we do not bake like our ancestors no taste seasoning. This Bakery deserve a score of P for pollutants. Baby food taste better than this..
