I stopped in the other day to get some vegan cupcakes to bring to a dinner party. They had a large…read moreselection of flavors and the cupcakes all looked beautiful. The cupcakes tasted amazing, too! The cake part wasn't super-moist, so it held its shape and tasted great, but the frosting was the real star. The frosting on the lemon cupcake was intensely lemony, and the chocolate frosting was rich and smooth. I and the other non-vegans at the party couldn't tell that they were vegan, and our host was delighted to know that there is a bakery nearby that caters to her needs. I'll definitely be coming back to try the regular cupcakes soon!

I was really excited to try this place! I ordered the dozen…read moreassorted cupcakes and chose a wide variety. The cupcakes are cute, but the taste wasn't the best. We tried the buttercream frosting and the cream cheese frosting. Buttercream frosting was a bit sweet, I preferred the cream cheese. We ordered for the day before the party and put the cupcakes in the fridge. Would recommend taking them out for about an hour so the frosting softens up. TBH the cupcakes were good for allergen friendly cupcakes but if you don't have any allergies then the cupcakes just don't compare to regular ones. I would consider ordering from them again if I needed allergen friendly cupcakes. Otherwise likely would not choose this bakery if I need regular old cupcakes. PS It is delivery only, no pick up option.

I loved Monilio's Bakery bit recently we purchased a whoopie pie at D'angelo's sandwich shop…read moreand it was hard as a rock and inedible. We got sandwiches tonight and gave Montilio's another try. The brownie was cake not brownie at all and i almost choked it was so dry. The Blueberry muffins looked amazing and cost a mint for four but they were huge and the blueberries were plentiful but when i bit it i had to spit it out. It had a chemical taste like i had just rinsed my mouth with sweet and lo. Terrible - worst I have ever purchased. And no expiration date on anything. It all was wretched and didn't taste like food at all. I am so sad.

These are more delicious in my opinion as the chocolate distracts from the gingery flavor. Sometimes, they also have overbaked ones which are the same as the soft ones, but it just spent too much time in the oven. Service is friendly and prompt. Free samples of their cookies are available sometimes at the counter.

Made a last minute order for Thanksgiving for an apple pie and an upside down caramel apple bread pudding and they were great. Pick up was easy with very friendly service. Prices are also reasonable.

Yesterday was the cake tasting. Verdict - so good it is a reason to get married!…read more We were escorted to a back room full of cake models , offered coffee and water, and filled out a form. Then the cake! 8 slices of some favorite flavor combinations, with a very long list of alternatives flavors and fillings. I was amazed at how _little_ we left on the plates. The pricing is crazy inexpensive, even when compared to the inferior choices. As of March 2026, $7 per person across a wide range of flavors and exterior designs. There are elaborate things one can do to drive the price up (gold leaf, anyone?), but we were wholly satisfied with the basic offering. And at that pricing, why would anyone accept the restaurant alternative of display cake + sheet cake? A heads up - for the smaller (two tier) cake you can and should handle the delivery to the restaurant / reception hall.

She explained all the goods they had to offer and answered any questions we had. We decided to get 6 mini cupcakes: Pros: Creative flavors and every cupcake had a filling.

They were not too dry and the filling choices were incredible. Cons: the pricing is ridiculous but maybe it's normal for Boston? $23 for 6 mini cupcakes is absurd to me.

When it comes to a wedding cake, Dessert Works in Westwood is truly the go-to place. Their team has…read moreperfected a system to help couples design their ideal wedding cake, and the experience could not have been smoother. The process begins about three months in advance with a consultation, where you sit down with their talented designers to bring your vision to life. From that meeting, you're presented with several different flavors to sample. Pro Tip: have a few helpers ready at home when you receive the samples--you get more than enough for two people! For our wedding, we chose a Boston Cream Pie and strawberry combination, and it was absolutely delightful. Not only was the flavor incredible, but the design perfectly matched our cultural theme. The decorations were placed with precision, and it was clear that the team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. One highlight was the "topper piece", which is cream-based and made for a perfect treat the day after our wedding. While many couples save their cake for their one-year anniversary, ours was simply too good to wait. By the third day after our wedding, the cake was gone--leaving us only with the tasteful memory of how special it was. If you are working with The Lenox Hotel, you'll benefit from their partnership with Dessert Works. And if you're not tied to a specific venue, but have the option to choose your own cake vendor, I can't recommend Dessert Works enough. They will make your wedding day both delightful and delicious!
