Had high hopes. Tried the carrot cake, the brownie, and cheese cake. ALL YUCK ! It was hard, old and no tasting good. So sorry.

Their Service Is Amazing & Very Helpful When Taking Cake Orders. The Bakery Is Clean & Everything Fresh. It Feels So Old School And That's A Beautiful Thing Truly. May I Recommend The Raspberry Mousse Chocolate Cake. Everyone Requests That I Bring It Too Every Party & BBQ Too . read more

Cestra’s Bakery - A Picture Of The Recommended Cake ! - Bakeries Near Me - Bronx, New York

Nice store! Clean and well organized. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The display case is filled with delights, making it difficult to choose so you're inclined to choose a little bit of everything! Most impressive is the quality, especially the cookies! Unfortunately, so many Italian bakeries miss the mark due to the choice of using inferior ingredients. Not Cestra! If you've ever had Italian cookies that look beautiful, but taste artificial, you know what I mean. It is clear from first bite, Cestra takes pride in their baked goods. As close to what my family and myself make in our home kitchen. The cookies, especially, are the best I've ever had from any bakery in the Bronx. read more

This bakery is right in Throggs Neck on East Tremont. It's a relatively small establishment with no sitting room, so people take their orders to go. Service is always friendly and the pastries are delicious. My family and I LOVE their rugelachs, but everything I've had is great. read more

It's easy for me to head and grab something savory for my mom after work- until my ex-coworker bought a whole cake from here and said it was incredibly moist. Naturally, that was enough for me to try Cestra's for their Italian pastries at this shop in Throggs Neck- owned by Bajram Berisha- who also has Cestra's Pizza and his newest addition, Fiorentina Steakhouse in the same area. Right off, this place smells nice and was drawn to their cookies all looking like perfectly laid jewels, Italian bread and semolina rolls. With their rainbow cookies, individual cakes, etc, you'll leave here with something. I'm not sure which are the highest rated cookie(s)- but my mom loved the Pignoli cookies I got for her and I, liked their pillowy-soft semolina buns. The girls up front were all smiles and patient while I took some time deciding on what to get. If you're feeling experimental, try diving in and order to your heart's content. read more

We called and placed an order for a birthday cake VERY last min. They not only accommodated all that i asked for but the price was awesome! The cake was baked fresh and ready before the expected pickup time. I will definitely be revisiting this place! read more

Cestra’s Bakery - Eva's 11th Birthday Cake - Bakeries Near Me - Bronx, New York

Recently opened, we chose Cestra's Bakery instead of receiving multiple large cakes from our resident family baker. Deciding on just a couple of mini pastries to serve after our homemade dinner, Cestra's Bakery turned out to be the right choice. Now that there's a full fledge bakery in the area, no longer will we have to trek over to Pelham Bay, as Cestra's has a clear handle on Italian desserts and some. Upon entering, you walk into a bright and colorful display of goodies, with Cestra's also passing the '3s' test...Clean, Friendly and Helpful. In addition to the assortment of pastries and cakes, I noticed bagels, muffins and coffee as an option too. A full rounded bakery in this part of our neighborhood is a welcome addition. Good luck to you Cestra's Bakery! TIP: Open 7 days 6:00am - 7:00pm read more

I was looking for some cannolis for my mother in law who was visiting from Puerto Rico. I walked into Cestra's and was pleasantly surprised. I was greeted upon entering the door and it was nice and clean inside. I ordered some cannolis and fruit tarts. Both the cannolis and fruit tarts were so fresh and absolutely delicious. The cookies looked amazing as well. I will definitely try them again. A+ for customer service...A+ for taste and presentation A+ for cleanliness. read more

Pastries and cakes look pretty good. I just tried an oversized brownie for $4. It was more like chocolate angel food cake than a brownie. Not good at all. But looking at the other stuff there out all looks good and will most likely taste as good read more

Very expensive! Cookies are all very thick , probably to weigh more to charge more .Cupcakes are plain , no flavor and stale .

I ordered a cake here for my granddaughter's baptism. The staff was super friendly and helpful. And the cake was amazing. It was a cannoli filled cake with buttercream frosting and it was delicious. And it was very reasonably priced for such an awesome cake. I highly recommend. read more

Amazing Bakery and wonderful staff!!!! I needed help with a last minute cake twice since knowing of this bakery on Tremont and the staff saved me from having a sweet-less party. The girls working in the front end were incredibly helpful and understanding of the situation and were able to make it happen for me. Along with the amazing service, the cakes tasted amazing each time and their grab and go cookies and breads in the front display are awesome as well!! A sweet and wonderful addition to the Throgs Neck area- highly recommend!! :) read more

I was so excited to see this bakery close by. Love their pizza shop! I have to say though I was very disappointed with a bait and switch. Was quoted $40 for a 10" cake, however, after asking for simple thing to be added to sides of cake and chose and Nutella (which they didn't initially mention would change the price), the price jumped to $110!!! Needless to say, I canceled my order due to the significant price change. read more

excellent.........I knew if the bakery would be fantastic because this owner does not go cheap with the food products that's why place is so succesful and the pizza shop next door is excellent too and prices are so reasonable and you get so much food its only place I order food from.....Thanks Cestra read more
