Very happy to have them prepare the wedding cake for my daughter's wedding at The Coach House/Ryland Inn last March. They were helpful and courteous over the phone, didn't require we trek out to a tasting (where I think folks fall prey to lots of unnecessary "upcharges"), and the cake we ordered - a vanilla Naked Cake, The Somerset - was delicious from cake to frosting to simple floral decoration, which was included in the package price. Thank you, La Bonbonniere! read more

Let me start off by saying I work nights and my job is 1 street over from this establishment. I found it one early morning while leaving work starving, decided to stop by. I was expecting a bagel or something under filling, and basic BUT...I was pleasantly surprised. They have breakfast sandwiches and one was a turkey sausage on a biscuit!! This biscuit was so damn good, the sausage was good EVERYTHING was good!! The 2 reasons for the missing stars are, the staff is accommodating but not like friendly or welcoming. Its like they are just doing their job and dont make you feel like a patron. Second thing is it doesn't open until 6 which is a great time if I had a normal job. But i have to will myself to stay in Edison , and stay awake or worst stay at WORK just so i can be around for opening. read more

I was referenced by friends but still hesitant on making a decision....well just want to say they surpassed all doubt...the cake was amazingly delicious and equally beautiful read more

The selection here is not so good, but I found what I was looking for. The cake pops are called bonbons and don't have sticks. They have 4 different kinds, but almost all of the cake was sticky and felt undercooked. The carrot cake had walnuts in it and was dense, exactly the way I like it, but the frosting was thin and super sweet. The dutch german chocolate was rather dry and had coconut in it, not bad but not at all what I was expecting. They serve sandwiches and make their own bread, but its 7$ for half a roll sized sandwich. Pricey. They have a separate room that looks like it's used for event planning and specialty cake orders. I also saw some jams and preserves, but I needed to get out of there. Overall, there are small shops with larger variety, so I'll keep looking. read more

We ordered a customized cake for my baby's cake smash session and they were able to copy the exact thing I wanted. It was really beautiful! The overall taste was good nothing exceptional. read more

Called to order a White Derby cake for pick up the following day. Cake was ready to go and they were able to create a Happy Birthday topper. The cake is vanilla with fresh strawberries, bananas, peaches, pineapple and whipped cream. Very tasty. It was a big hit! read more

Ordered a white derby cake for my daughter's birthday. After we got home, we realized they wrote my daughter's name incorrectly on the cookie, I'm sure someone else got the wrong name too. More disappointing is the inside of the cake, it mentioned there are pineapples, there were none, there were plenty of bananas, there were minimal pieces if strawberries and peaches. The worst part is that at least two or three pieces of the banana with parts that were bad. We paid a good amount of money for the cake but receive such a bad product. read more

If you're looking for great cake's and cannolis. this is the place to be. I'd had cakes here before(an excellent chocolate mousse cake given to me for my birthday once), but I'd never actually gone here until recently. For my first visit, I came for a mango cake for my girlfriend's birthday, which they didn't have that day as they were apparently a weekend thing, but ended up leaving with several other things that caught my eye. Among my favorites was their generously sized napoleon cakes. I came back the next day because I wanted to try their cannoli's and was incredibly pleased with my selection from yesterday. The same server from yesterday recognized me and let me know that they just happened to make mango cakes that weekday and it was great coincidence I came there. Unfortunately, I had to go to work and couldn't carry a cake around with me so she offered to set the cake aside for me for when I got back. I bought my cannoli (which they make fresh by the way), went to work, came back and lo and behold, there was a cake there waiting for me with my name on it. The cake turned out to be excellent and one of the best $15 I've ever spent on a baked good. Long story short, excellent pastries, excellent service. read more

Decent cookies. Cupcakes were good. Always have good service. A bit pricey. Clean. Whenever I go in for jelly donuts they don't have any. They need more of a selection. Overall pretty good. read more

I brought a 9 inch German Chocolate birthday cake from here and it was stupendous. It was for a dinner party of 15 and it was perfect ! When It was brought out to the table everyone said "Wow". I was so upset there wasn't anything left. Light and fluffy and yummy. This was my first time purchasing from this bakery and I'm definitely going back. 5 Stars read more

I ordered a chocolate shadow layer 6" cake for $22.50. I asked for text to be put on the cake and a certain pick-up time. Everything was as expected. The cake was beautiful with the text as I requested and ready for me at the pick-up time. The cake itself is quite unique. I was expecting it to be very sweet because it is a chocolate cake but I was pleasantly surprised to find it semisweet. It was delicious and the party I was with agreed. It has dark chocolate undertones and the butter cream was so fluffy. I was very happy with my order. read more

The best bake shop. Every time I need a real delicious cake, I order from them. Quite pricey but hey, it's local .. I support local businesses read more

waited to buy some cupcakes for a good 25 mins but the employee decided to help other people who came way after me. I called her out in front of everyone and got no response or an apology. Will not go back. I encourage everyone not to go here. That's the only way to change this terrible customer service. read more

Where do I begin? Look no further if you're looking for excellent customer service and delicious and tasty cakes! From the very beginning, I was looking for a bakery to deliver a cake for a birthday, not being from the U.S and all the way in London I thought this would be impossible. Having e-mailed Carolyn she responded very efficiently and helped me through the whole process in a very professional manner. I originally needed the cake delivered to Edison, NJ however last minute needed it delivered to Woodbridge, NJ. Carolyn managed to get her driver to deliver it in no time and was happy the cake was able to be delivered accordingly. I will definitely be ordering from La Bonbonniere Bake Shoppe again. Thank you so much! read more

Just awesome! I ordered a cake here for my mom's birthday and it was beautifully decorated...i could not have asked for something better. They took my ideas into consideration and then went above and beyond. I ordered a 9 inch derby cake..seeing it was there most popular. I was a bit hesitant at first but the girl at the counter assured me it was a great choice. I didn't know a mixture of pineapple..peaches..strawberries..and bananas could taste soo good!! I added whipped cream as my filling and it was perfect. This cake is now my new addiction! My family couldn't stop raving about the cake..it was so light and just delicious. They are a little pricey but well worth your money, especially if it's only once in awhile. I will definitely come back here for all my cakes! Thanks La Bon for making my mom's day something she will never forget. read more

I just have to let the world know that LaBon makes a terrific pizza bread. I am a serious home baker and my bread has won awards so I know a good bread. This pizza bread is fluffy yet toothsome! Perfect amount of sauce and a touch of cheese and olive oil. I hope they keep this on their menu! read more

They did my daughters birthday cake followed my customization to the T . The cake was freaking awesome and very tasty. I will go to them for every birthday going forward. read more

FYI there is nothing gluten free at this store. Mislabeled as Gluten Free. Made the mistake of driving 30 mins and not calling first to verify that they had gluten free goods. Hope Yelp can remove that label. Very misleading. Other wise staff was friendly and place was clean. I could not try any of the foods but the place smelled great! read more

When a person helps you when you're in desperate need, you will generally be forever grateful. The same holds true for bakeries. This weekend I was invited to a dinner party and ordered a chocolate ganache cake from another bakery. Little did I know at the time that the other bakery forgot to put decorations on the cake. I desperately called all the bakeries and grocery stores with bakeries on the way to my party, but they all refused to decorate the cake or said they'd need a few hours to do so. I happened to call la bon and the staff said they'd be able to help. When I got to la bon, they took the cake and beautifully decorated it with purple flowers in minutes. The staff was phenomenal and their service was quick and absolutely fantastic. La bon, I will be forever indebted to you and will be sure to come back to you for all my cake needs. read more

Two very friendly helpful girls at the counter who joked with me and smiled as they struggled to find the cake i ordered online. She asked what the cake was called. I replied chocolate something or other. She pointed to a cake with white icing. I said no..brown...like the chocolate. She asked me how many people it could feed and I said the site didn't say that. She suggested I call up with any questions and I laughed, replied I ordered online so I wouldn't have to talk to anyone. She went OHHHHH. Then i got my cake. It was a chocolate bomb something. If this cake was a woman, she'd already be impregnated. Mind blowingly good. I got this for my mom's birthday. She cut herself a piece, then slid her plate out of the way and embedded her fork deep into the cake itself. She knew it was love. read more

OK, so you get invited to the wife's cousin's house for home-made lasagna and they ask you to bring desert. The problem is that you live 3,000 miles away on the opposite coast! Our solution was to call another relative (her step-mom) who used to live in the Piscataway area, and ask for suggestions. She didn't even pause before saying La Bonbonniere and now we know why! So many choices and such helpful staff!! When we finally got to sample the 2 desserts we picked up (couldn't decide on just one) we knew why this bakery has been in business so long. No, it is not cheap, but their prices are very reasonable for the quality. I work with a vendor who always says "the cheaper you pay, the garbage you get". We can't way to pass this way again!! read more

I feel like the quality had gone down. I've been buying special order cakes there for my kids for 9 years now, and I got to say at this point I cannot justify the price. This year after pricing out their cake for a birthday ($17.99 for a picture, seriously?!), we went with a "staged" cake (Madagascar, with 4 toys on top) from Shoprite and at $30 it was fabulous, with all whipped cream on top as I ordered, not a drop of buttercream (can't stand that). Anyway, I had a goupon that was expiring today so I drove to the Edison location (50 min) thinking it's their flagship store, they would have the most selection. Well, let me say there were about 3 types of cakes, and a couple of "rolls" cakes. C'mon! My local Kings, and Shoprite have about 15 - 20 each. They didn't have a black derby, so got a white one - it was eh, just okay for me, but my kids hated it. Pass on it altogether next time. read more

This bakery is a hidden gem! We were in a rush to a friend's house and did a quick Google search to find a place to grab some pastries. The red velvet cheesecake was incredible, the brownies were amazing, and the cupcakes all looked mouthwatering! Highly recommend this place! read more

Bought some Irish Soda Bread for St. Patricks day along with a few pastries and everything was delicious and baked well.

The place is a little hard to find since the sign isn't that clear. The strip mall it is a located in looks really rundown. I've ordered a couple cakes there but I'll just go into detail about the last one since I can't remember what the name of the first cake was. I recently ordered the White Derby for my boyfriend's birthday due to the description of it. It is white cake with filled with strawberries, bananas, a whole peach in the middle and pineapples. It is then covered in whipped cream and topped with cake crumbs. The presentation of the cake is very nice, shaped like a dome. I had high expectations for it but it was okay. The whipped cream is overwhelming since there is a couple layers of it but the fruit is pretty decent. My boyfriend ended up liking it which I was happy about. I may try it again but for now, I won't go out of my way for it. read more

After a long anticipated wait to find out the gender of my baby, I decide to go to La Bonbonniere to order the cake for our gender reveal intimate party, trusting the yelp recommendations . I ordered a $75 vanilla cake with fresh strawberry filling . While i loved the decor, to my disappointment what I received instead was a banana cream filling cake (no strawberries in sight). As a new customer this will be my first and last time to order from this bakery. If you want your order to be fulfilled go to Haisch Bakery in south plainfield instead, their prices are much more reasonable and they won't charge you a fortune for delicious cake that meets your requests. read more

They did an amazing job on my friend's 40th birthday cake. They offer a homestyle discount option. I was able to get a half sheet cake with fresh whipped cream and fresh bananas for only 35 dollars. It was an amazing deal and even more amazing cake! read more

Awesome cakes. The chocolate bomb is my favorite. Expensive but addictive! Not too many bakeries out there that make such a fabulous whipped cream cake. read more

I love this bakery! It smells so wonderful as soon as you enter and everything they make there is fresh and delicious! I've tried pretty much all their pies and everything tasted so great! We usually get their Italian bread which is always nice. Their harvest pie is my favorite and I do think it's a season's special. Other than that, their butter cookies are great as well! Give this bakery a try, it's become my favorite neighborhood spot when I'm craving something sweet! read more

Not the best services. The girls kept talking to each other and texting instead of being attentive to their customers. Besides that, various amount of baked goods and loooove the cupcake room! read more

Great bakery, I love their chocolate cupcake with vanilla icing and their chocolate mousse bomb cake is awesome!

Wow I really awesome brownies I was eating them in the car while I was driving to Boston and they were really a great pick-me-up I bought a dozen for my co-workers and about 6 of them because there was so much food at the party all in all a really good move $2 brownies can't go wrong read more

Their selection of baked goods is pretty good. I've had their cheesecake, carrot cake and red velvet cupcake which were all good. Their cannoli were okay. However, some items seems to be a tad over priced. read more

My favorite cake place, they did my birthday cake and all of my family's birthday cakes. Amazing every single time, the 'bomb' cakes just can't be beat, def. my go-to cake place! read more

I got a Hungarian cheesecake square for 2.75 and it was the best cheesecake I've ever had, and for such a great price!

I grew up around Italian bakeries and in my youth use to walk to the Ward bakery and local Italian family bakeries in Newark and Elizabeth NJ. Now, I have found a Bake Shop that has that wonderful Apple crumb cake and Crinolli taste that I craved in my youth. These Bake shops will do BD orders and special occasions too. I once ordered a cake for a Baby shower and nobody would leave till the cake was finished. The Sugar level in the cakes are not diebetic shock level either. I know they are a bit pricey, but the staff and results are worth it. German Chocolate is to die for :-P . They have a place on Rt.35 in Woodbridge (Cookie Jar) and Rt. 27 near the Pines manor and PO Office in Edison. Every time I venture near one of these places, I have to stop in. read more

Everything they make at this bake shop is amazing. I love the Darby cake, pies , strawberry short cake and tres litchi. My daughter loves the cupcakes and cookies. If you need a cake this is the place to go read more

I have always been a fan of this place since I was a little girl! Their baked goods are beyond delicious. I stop in regularly for their fresh baked hard rolls for Breakfast. I also love how friendly the staff is. There is one girl in particular, unfortunately I do not know her name, but the way she treats my 3 year old daughter is above and beyond customer service. I will continue to get my daughters birthday cakes from here also as they did an amazing job for her last birthday. Glad you guys are still around! read more

After looking at Yelp reviews I went here to order a birthday cake for my son's first birthday. They made a beautiful cake in just 2 days notice. All the guests loved the cake. Thank You La Bon for making my son's birthday special! The cake not only looked good but tasted yummy as well. Even my 1 year old ate a big slice... :D This will be my go to bakery from now on! I wanted a fondant cake but there wasn't enough time to make one, so the baker made a similar jungle themed cake with cream and the design was beautiful! read more
