Always a bonus when they hand you tiny samples of their soft serve. I love their pb and jam cookie. Recently they have jumped on the dubai chocolate craze and made two cookies that way. The dubai chocolate is like a brownie cookie with the pistachio filling that has a nice crunch. Not overly sweet. My favorite however is the dubai coconut. The coconut filling is so good!

Alpine Pastry Shoppe has been a staple in my family for years--every holiday you can imagine and…read moreeven for those random "just because" moments. A coworker recently asked me to bring back some cookies since she knew I was flying home to New York. When she said she wanted good quality cookies, I already knew exactly where I was headed: Alpine. Every time I walk into this place it somehow feels like the first time. Maybe it's the nostalgia from going there with my family for so many years, or maybe it's because it's still family-owned and truly has that warm, welcoming vibe. The people who work there are always so sweet, accommodating, and kind, which just adds to the experience. When anyone brings up rainbow cookies, Alpine is honestly the first place that comes to mind for me. They're the only ones I really go to for them. For my coworker, I picked up a pound of assorted cookies so she could try a little bit of everything. Selfishly, I was definitely thinking I should've ordered a box for myself too! She absolutely loved them, which came as no surprise. If you want truly great Italian cookies and pastries, Alpine Pastry Shoppe is the only place that comes to mind for me. I'm so happy to see that they're still open, and I truly hope they remain a neighborhood staple for many years to come.

The inside Rainbow cookie is moist and dense.

I stumbled upon the Instagram for this online cake donut business run by a woman named Chana, and…read morehad been wanting to order for months. I was so enticed by the whimsical, atypical flavors and the bright saturated colors. I finally ordered the 5 pack and chose these flavors: 'Cotton Candy', 'Strawberry Crumb', 'Chocolate Banana', 'American Dreamsicle' and 'Italian Rainbow Cookie'. I loved the way each donut was wrapped in plastic and placed so intentionally in its packaging - a sleek gold-colored box with a sticker bearing her logo (a 'C' for Chana that doubles as a donut with purple frosting on it and sprinkles). My boyfriend and I did a "tasting" together trying small ¼ pieces of each flavor. The 'Cotton Candy' (pink frosting with swirls of blue) had a subtle cotton candy flavor but was very sweet, the 'Strawberry Crumb' (bright red) was tart, delicious and one of my favorites. The 'Rainbow Italian Cookie' (covered in tiny green, red & white sprinkles) tasted just like the real cookie; so enjoyable with a pronounced almond flavor. The 'American Deamsicle' (covered in blue, red & white round sprinkles) tasted like orange and was pretty good. My absolute favorite was the 'Chocolate Banana' (a striking yellow with brown swirls), which had a more tolerable sweetness than the others. Overall, I enjoyed the donuts: the taste, the uniqueness and the colors. My only feedback is that I would like the donuts less sweet, so it is easier to eat a whole donut. I would rate Chana's Donuts 3.8 out of 5 stars, and I would definitely order again to try new flavors, or to get the 'Chocolate Banana' or 'Strawberry Crumb' flavors again :)

I initially stopped in to purchase bread, and after hearing about a variety of options from the very friendly and knowledgeable woman at the counter, I bought a loaf of pan de queso, which I usually refer to as Colombian bread. I also couldn't help but notice the different flavors of tres leches cakes available. SO, I got a hefty slice of caramel tres leches and IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! I definitely want to go back to try a slice of their strawberry tres leches ASAP. Overall, I had a great experience and will certainly be back soon.

The deep fried bowls of honey caramelized and honey and topped with rainbow sprinkles and candied fruit. I thought the price was reasonable for bakeries today.

I recently visited Dortoni Bakery and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. The…read morerainbow cookies were dry and lacked the moist, flavorful texture I expected. The tiramisu, on the other hand, was more like a pudding than the rich, layered dessert I was hoping for. Additionally, while I was there, I witnessed some unpleasant behavior from an elderly Kowal, who was disrespectful and rude to the staff, which added to the overall negative experience. I hope the bakery can address these issues to improve both the quality of their desserts and the atmosphere for their customers.

However it's hit or miss purchasing Kaiser rolls. It's amazing how quickly they "sell" out by 11am while there are plenty of plain and sesame seed rolls left to purchase. Additionally the size of the rolls had gotten smaller while the price keeps increasing now $1.00 a roll half the size of a roll from other bakeries and deli's. Apple turnovers are very good but again expensive ( flour going up I guess). Staff always friendly and welcoming but I wish someone would run numbers on roll sales so there'd be some Kaiser rolls left to purchase. Varied selection of cookies, pastries and pies and there's a coffee station for those needing a caffeine fix.

With an ideal location across the street from the St James train station, I can understand why doughnuts and muffins would be gone. Smart! We picked up eclairs, Napoleons, cream puffs and cannolis to go. The black and white cookie looked really good so we'll come back for that as I'm always on the hunt for the best. The cannoli is a small size and has a distinctive nutmeg flavor. I am not crazy about the green sprinkles though. Crunchy though. The eclair is filled with a custard and the chocolate was discolored. Not sure why. It was okay. I have had the Napoleon or cream puff yet so we will see how they hold up the next day. The store has a nice variety of goodies including decorated cakes, cookies and breads so please give them a try.
