Was just alright…read more Owner was extremely sweet but the desserts didn't live up to expectations. Ordered a carrot cake and a chocolate 14 layer cake. The carrot cake had too much cinnamon, but the cream was delicious. The chocolate cake was so stale. It has definitely been sitting out for a while. I bake and eat quite a bit of desserts, so I know it's been at least a few days. But if it was fresher, I would imagine it to taste great since the chocolate cream and chocolate ganache was good. For the high price tag, I would hope for fresher slices. I think one of the cake slice was $14 and I forgot how much the other slice was.

They were able to accommodate my holiday deadline. Furthermore, I appreciate how they respect the COVID regulations, and offered me free curb side pick up. (PS They were very courteous.) Now on to the cake itself. First off, the cake was moist and dense at the same time, which I really liked. It wasn't too overwhelmingly sweet - this is important, since I served it to older adults, who are not fond of super sugary, diabetes inducing cakes (hahah ). But they appreciated the cinnamon-y taste from the pumpkin spice cake. Furthermore, all the fruit on the cake was fresh. There were pomegranate seeds, blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries. All 1000% ripe, fresh, with the right amount of sweetness. The fruits did not seem to be pre-frozen and thawed either. Lastly, the rosemary and cinnamon sticks were a very nice touch to the cake. It made it look more earthy in my opinion. Most importantly, my grandma loved the cake! So thank you very much for putting a smile on my Lola's face for her birthday!

Shakalaka Bakery in Flushing is one of the more visually polished modern Chinese bakeries in the…read morearea and a reliable stop if I am looking for cakes, pastries, or grab and go sweets that feel a bit more updated compared to traditional bakeries nearby. I walked into a clean, well lit space designed for quick selection rather than lingering, and the display cases were filled with brightly decorated cakes and pastries that looked consistently fresh. The mango based cakes are the most consistent thing here. I tried one and found it light, creamy, and built around fresh fruit rather than overly heavy frosting, which made it easy to finish even after a full meal. The matcha cake also worked well, leaning more milky than bitter, with a soft sponge that held its structure without feeling dry. The pork floss cakes are one of the more interesting savory sweet options, and they came out better than I expected since they did not go overboard on sweetness. The croissants and egg tarts are solid supporting items rather than the main reason to come. The croissant I had was flaky with a noticeable butter layer, and the egg tart was best eaten warm as the custard tightens up when cold. The purple rice desserts are heavier but work if I want something more filling and texturally different from the fruit cakes. Service was generally efficient even when the bakery was busy, and the staff moved through orders quickly. Prices sit a bit higher than older style Flushing bakeries, but the tradeoff is cleaner presentation, more modern flavor combinations, and consistently fresh looking cakes. For a modern bakery stop in Flushing, Shakalaka delivers on quality and visual appeal.

They offer really fun and delicious flavors here with their pastries and cakes. The prices here are also really good. Their bread is also really good. I tried the Japanese crab meat bread, Coconut cream bread, and their egg sandwich which I loved! They tasted delicious and they were also very filling. The ambience is modern and clean. The line moves quickly. However, it can be hard to find a seat here and it can get very busy. It's best to grab your pastries and go. It is also near public transit, and the train. I will come back here again to pick up a cake from here, the prices are good and the flavors are also good. Price:$8.75 Rating: 9/10

So here I am, trying out a bakery for the first time via UberEats. This red velvet cake roll was beautifully packaged, I like the box they chose for a single slice. The appearance is cute and pretty upon sight. The cake itself, freaking delicious; It's soft and moisture, topped with this nice frothy whipped cream, paired together with this savory and thick cream cheese filling. And because both of these things are white, it was a very pleasant surprise and interesting contrast for my tastebuds. Con: The staples they used to seal the paper bag was so sharp, it cut my index finger and made it bleed as soon as I opened it. Please remedy this, opening cake shouldn't hurt me more than the Pifzer vaccine...... * awkward smile....* UberEats over charges like no other app..... ridiculous. (But thank you Jackson for including me for Jesus' birthday.) It was great seeing your big family, especially the kids. Btws... I just finished eating it. And I licked the box clean lol (Don't judge me...it was freaking delicious!! ) oh and no pun intended hehehe

All were very mild, with minimal sugar, as promised by the business owners/bakers. I appreciated how minimally sweet these cakes were. However, the taste of everything was very much bland.

Very pretty, but not something that I would order again because the taste was just not there and I could not justify purchasing something that did not spark joy and did not leave much to be remembered.
