It's chocolately but not in an overwhelming way, fudgey but also slightly cakey, making it an irresistible texture. The frosting is light, airy and minty but not to the point of tasting like an overpowering breath mint. Bonus point is this place is located on Lake Mohawk, which is stunning and transports you to what feels like a little Swiss town. The interior of the bakery is cozy and has an almost Hallmark movie ambience. The staff is friendly. They have 1-2 outdoor tables and I think serve coffees too.

The flakey crust was chewy and not great. They would do better maybe making a graham cracker crust on it. I also got lemon bars which were good. And the star of the show was the coffee cake. It was so moist and delicious with big cinnamon crumbs. Will definitely return for more of that. I know a lot of people are complaint about the hours but I'm thinking they probably wouldn't do much business during the week in this area so I'm ok with them being a weekends only spot.

The staff was great, they move quick and is very helpful...even if it's your first time there and feel overwhelmed by all the great options to choose from, the ladies are very friendly. Walked in, not a large place, but it's clean, smelled great and they have plenty of yummy options that your eyes pick up immediately... you know this place has everything you need from a bakery. They are multiple display cases, fully stocked with a variety of cakes, cookies, donuts, specialty pastries, and more. They have a couple of cake displays, for the full-size, mini-size, and the slices as well. They also do specialty cakes and special order catering too. Their Deli has plenty of side dishes to choose from...especially great if you are going somewhere and you don't want to make anything...let the folks at Giancarlos save the day. To my surprise, they also make pizza pies and to include sell by the slice too !! Ordered two breakfast sandwiches (1x HEC & 1x BEC), both were filling and delicious. The French bread was fresh and soft. We bought the small red velvet cake today, but look forward to returning and try the lemon cake.

Cake Fiction was the one vendor we used from a recommendations list our wedding venue gave to us. I…read moream SO glad we did. Their barn itself is also super cute, just going up for the cake tasting session was magical in itself. Picking just 3 flavors to sample from their list of cake combinations was so hard, which was a good thing! You are allowed to have a different flavor for each layer of cake at no additional cost, so we had fun with those. We picked the olive oil cake with passion fruit cream, the walnut almond pound cake with raspberry mousse, and the lemon cake with orange flower blossom cream. Well, my husband talks about that passion fruit cream more than any other part of our wedding (I try not to be too upset about that), it was that amazing! My favorite flavor was the raspberry mousse, and I keep hearing a ton of compliments on that flavor in particular from our guests. The only critique I would give to Cake Fiction is that they didn't give the venue a list of the flavors so nobody knew what each layer was and my husband and I had picked the flavors months before and couldn't remember either. I also appreciate how up-front Cake Fiction was with their pricing, which is listed online on their website to give you an idea of an estimate for your cake. We ended up going with a naked cake with just buttercream frosting on the outside which saved us a bit of money, and it looked so beautiful after our florist put a couple of flowers on it for us and it really fit in well with the theme of our barn venue. I made my own cake toppers out of clay and they were a little heavy so I was worried about them on top possibly sinking into the cake, but the cake was sturdy and the topper sat up there proudly! And finally, Paula is also the sweetest lady ever and you can tell she really has a passion for her work. It's lovely that we have such a great wedding cake baker in New Jersey. Now if only they would open a tiny bakery so that we can get two cupcakes with our flavors next year for our anniversary. :)

I was considering ordering a cake from ShopRite until I came across Sweet as Sugar Desserts. I'm so happy I found them because I prefer supporting local businesses, especially when they are POC and women owned. Right off the bat, the customer service was amazing. No more than 2 hours after I submitted the order form online, was I contacted by the proprietor Christiane. After a short email exchange, we spoke on the phone to communicate order specifics and to ensure she understood my "vision." And boy, did she come through! I already had a good sense of her decorating skills, but since there were no other reviews, I really did not know what to expect in terms of flavor. I ordered a tres leche cake with dulce de leche filling, and it frikken delicious!! The cake was perfectly moist, and the flavor of the filling was well balanced with the cake - which with this flavor combo can be overly sweet. But she really killed it and everyone loved it, the birthday girl especially. I couldn't recommend Sweet as Sugar Desserts enough!

In the past, they would open their window and allow the pickup orders to grab and go. With new ownership, it was a trainwreck. We got there very early and were stuck waiting for 2 hours. Yes, it was really that long. There was no separation of new orders and pickup, so those who ordered ahead had to stand behind those who were ordering for the first time. When we finally got to the front of the line, 2 hours later, our order was still being finished in the back.... I know. You think it'd be done considering it was ordered ahead... Be careful when ordering around the holidays. People were extremely unhappy. My advice is for them to ONLY accept order-ahead orders during the holidays so they're not stuck helping those who procrastinated while those who planned must wait. It really ate into our holiday time as well...

The food quality has dropped significantly over time -- what used to be a go-to spot just doesn't deliver the same experience it once did. Dishes that were once highlights now feel like a shadow of their former selves. What really sealed it for me, though, was the owner's attitude. On multiple occasions, I found her to be dismissive and condescending toward customers -- not the kind of hospitality that keeps loyal patrons coming back. I truly hope things turn around here, because this place has potential. But until there's a real commitment to both quality and customer experience, I can't recommend it in good conscience.

They supply many of the better restaurants in the area with their outstanding breads. Lisa's bread was by far my favorite, nice crust, tart dense interior.

The pie crust is very similar to when you make it at home- buttery, flaky, nice balance between the crust and the rich fruit. Their website provides the option to order ahead and then pick up.
