Bay Ridge Bakery

Beautiful cake! $ 45 for a 20-​person cake, great deal and it looked absolutely phenomenal. It had pink roses, glazed strawberries, and a strawberry-​chocolate mousse inside. All of my hopes and dreams came true with this cake.

Ok experience but when I wanted my money back on my debit card before even leaving because I realized I got the wrong amount of pounds of cookies, they claimed they can’t return my money to my debit card. That’s a lie there’s no way you can’t do that. They gave me store credit instead.

A friend got us the fruit case from bayridge bakery and I fell in love with it right at the moment. The taste and texture were similar to cakes back home (Nepal). Since then I have been the regular customer. Not only for occasions and gatherings, I get the yummy cakes just to satisfy my craving. The cakes are made fresh and I pre order to make sure I get what I want. The bakery shop itself is beautiful with helpful employees.
Best bakery I have found in New York.

I’m sorry but I ordered a red velvet cake as a surprise for my wife and when we cut it, I knew right away it looked old and stale. I tasted a small piece and it was horrible. Dry and old.
It’s a shame but they should not have cakes for sale if it was made over a week ago. But no way that cake was fresh. Should of went to Grandmas.

I bought a almond chocolate pastry (4 dollars) I thought overpriced and the chocolate cake inside was awful chemical tasting but more so just really dry. Some sort of chocolate nougat inside which tasted very similar to a Three Musketeers bar was just awful. The chocolate ganache surrounding the cake was very good but other than that I threw it out. Usually pastries are not even four dollars so I really threw my money away literally. Too bad I hardly ever throw food away but this pastry clearly was not worth the calories.

This was the only pastry spot open on Easter Sunday and I needed my sugar fix again. The pastries were on point especially the chocolate cannoli. Only problem I had was that it was crowded being the only place open, so I felt pressured to order quickly from other customers because the line just kept growing. The staff was definitely nice and helpful and I will go back to get myself some cookies since I didn’t get a chance the first time.

Best cakes in the neighborhood! Lady behind the counter, wish I knew her name, is the nicest salesperson. Very clean store.

Best cheesecake from all of brooklyn and NYC! They get it right every time. It’s fresh and not frozen and thawed out like most places

My husband and I actually got our wedding cake here! It was very affordable for us– under $ 600 for a cake that fed over 125 people. The owner was so sweet and helpful when we went in to try out some different flavors. It was all custom and everyone LOVED the cake. It was amazing and I wish I had eaten more at the wedding.
We got a relatively simple design, and I’m glad we did, because they aren’t artists there and it wasn’t «perfect» looking, but no one would notice unless up close. We put flowers on ourself. I wouldn’t go there if you want an elaborate, complex design. Also, our venue had some stairs the cake had to go down and since it was buttercream frosting, it cracked a little when being delivered. The guy did his best to fix it and I’m sure it would have been great had there not been stairs
Great place for a wedding cake if you don’t need perfection and are on a budget.

Best pecan pie and cheese cake in the world. lovely employees and owner. Really appreciate them for opening on thanksgiving!

I came here couple times to buy some pastries because it’s near my house but the prices here are ridiculous!!! Regular cheesecake slice is $ 5 and regular cannoli is 2.50 $. I can understand the cannoli, but the cheesecake!!! I have previously bought their pastries by pound and it comes out to about $ 2 – 3 per small pastry. I usually go to another place where cannoli actually tastes like ricotta and the shell is crispy. Here I find the cannoli is not that great, some of their cake slices are pretty good though. Also, the minimum for a credit card is $ 15 and if you bought something and they packaged it for you and you changed your mind, too bad. You have to take it home.

I love the Italian butter cookies from here always fresh and yummy the girls are always sweet and helpful at this bakery the cakes are delicious and fresh and the tiramisu is my all time favorite treat from here

Best bakery in Bay Ridge. Possibly best in the city! The cakes and pastries are not your typical sugar & butter bombs– and even if they are classic flavor (chocolate& strawberries) they are delish and never too sweet. I am also big fan of baklava. And napoleons. And chocoland almond cake. And strawberries and chocolate cake. And…

Cookies are delicious. Staff is very nice. Great bakery

I came to try a few pasties as our venue just informed us that Bay Ridge Bakery will be making our wedding cake.
So because my fiancé and I never need a reason to try goodies we came by .
Service is friendly and I spoke to the baker nick and he is amazing. Very personable and pleasant took his time to talk to us even though he was busy.
I will definitely be ordering my bridAl shower cake from here
Pasties are extremely good too !!!

It was my turn to bring the sweets. We had a playdate, and this time we were invited to Katie’s place. Originally stopped by Monaco’s but found out they were closed on Mondays, so immediately went on Unilocal to look for another resort and found Bay Ridge Bakery.
Didn’t see any labels of the cakes and sweets in the counter so I picked with my eyes. The Strawberry Cheesecakes were decadent. There was an orange flavored cake that was very refreshing. The chocolate slice was rich. I also got a round shaped cake, or was it more of a cookie, not too sure but it was sure ex-​creamy good.
I really didn’t get the names of the sweets so you guys would have to reference with the pictures I took.

After a day at the beach with nothing but watermelon, I was ready for a late lunch/​early dinner when I espied this bakery via my trusty Unilocal App. Okay, I was looking for a real meal but couldn’t resist checking out bakeries in the nabe.
Everything in this clean, brightly lit bakery looks so fresh. I was impressed by the display that ranged from Greek pastries like honey cakes and Bougasta and the white, sugar dusted, traditional nut crescents to the butter cookies to the Italian pastries. Bay Ridge Bakery has a huge sign on their window that says French pastries, though I didn’t see too many French style pastries. Not that it mattered. What I tried was excellent. The Bougasta was so delicious I have been thinking to brave the dreaded R train and the MTA track schedule just to come back for more. The cannoli I ate had a crunchy shell, and with yummy cannoli cream and chips. Maybe the filling at Bruno’s in the Village is better, but it was a great cannoli nevertheless. The cakes looked so great, and I had to summon forth admirable restraint to avoid carrying off a cheesecake – only the knowledge that my refrigerator was jam packed helped. This is a bakery you go in expecting to buy one or two items and leave with bags and boxes of stuff. And when you eat the stuff, you have no regrets.
Cakes here are priced at $ 18 – 22. Butter cookies are $ 18 a pound. The Bougasta, is $ 4 for a huge piece of crunchy filo stuffed with a custard that is redolent of honey and eggs. Yum heaven.
The staff is friendly and helpful.
Your Unilocal check in gets you a free mini pastry. It’ s fun to find new eats via Unilocal

If you are searching for the best bakery in Bay Ridge – NAY, the best bakery in Brooklyn – well, your search is over because here it is!
I have been coming to Bay Ridge Bakery for 8 years and trust me when I say that I have tried almost all – if not everything – in this bakery a hundred times over. The cakes are pure, delicious, and made with fresh ingredients – a formula this bakery has never messed with, and do not intend to over time. The bread dough is stretched with expert hands, and the cakes are baked and decorated with a eye for perfection. On top of that, service is top notch. Refreshing attitude and smiles from the workers here daily – a mannerism specific to Bay Ridge. If it’s your first time here, allow me to recommend some favorites:
French Cheesecake — Light and Fluffy, with a chocolate cake bottom. This cake is one that comes to me in my dreams.
Chocolate Strawberry OR Chocolate Mice– Always fresh, always chocolatey, always perfect.
Fruit Tart — On the Pricey side, but the plethora of fresh fruit just spells it out for you!
If you’re looking for pastries, try the Napoleon, Tiramisu, Strawberry Cheesecake, or treat yourself to a cannoli!
Do yourself a favor, and take home a 1 – 2 lb box of their butter cookies, mix and match. Every time I bring these to work, they are gone within the hour.
Other things they do marvelously here: Try the Greek pastries, spinach & feta pies (!!), marble pound cake, Greek cookies, and THE FRESH BAKED BREAD. By the Hammer of Thor, are those Breads good. Great to cut up into cubes and dip into some olive oil.
Once this place has won you over, they make great custom cakes as well. The owners love to meet you and get to know you, and are very serious about getting that cake to be the best you can get! Overall, a great bakery that still holds to the high standards that many have fallen off from years ago.

I love their truffles! However, they don’t always sell them. I also like their tiramisu, other than that I would say that their pastries are decent. If you have a sweet tooth and just looking to satisfy a craving then you won’t be disappointed. As for me, I usually come here to look for the truffles and if they don’t have it I don’t buy anything.
I love my sweets, but I am very picky. I only buy the ones that have the «it» factor. The truffles make me come back here, too bad they don’t always have it.

Nommmmmmmmmmmmmmm nom nom! Someone brought these into the office today and left the box sitting there. I cannot keep away. Soooooo good. Damn you Cathy!
Very delicious Italian cookies and pastries. My belly highly recommends!
