Excellent large selection and Excellent quality of Bakery products. Has very good selection of quality products.

I absolutely love La Bon! They have so many options that you really don't need any other bakery. I order cakes here from all birthdays and significant events and they are able to accommodate different dietary restrictions. For example, I got a vegan cake for my mom's birthday and I didn't even miss the dairy. For my daughter's birthday, they recreated exactly the cake that I wanted based only on a picture, and it was perfect! There are a few gluten-friendly options and they are able to accommodate a lot of custom requests with some advanced notice. I love that they have specials for different holidays. I recently started taking advantages of their specials: I ordered a Triple Mousse Cake from their Valentine's Day specials (soooo good!) and a Berry Deluxe King Cake from their Mardi Gras specials. I'm always on the lookout on social media to see what the next specials are to be able to treat myself. read more

This was our second visit to La Bon Bake Shoppes, and we were in search of some cupcakes to compliment our barbeque and satisfy the cravings for both adults and children. The blue mermaid cupcakes were the dessert of choice for the four year old, to accompany an assortment of chocolate, vanilla and key lime cupcakes for the adults. The cupcakes were very attractive, and the key lime was a big hit with the adults. We were less impressed with the plain vanilla and chocolate. The mermaid cupcake was not only appreciated by the four year old, to her delight, she benefited with a brilliant blue tongue and lips. We'd be happy to return here for some additional dessert treats! read more

Paid almost 30 dollars for this cake. I could have written this better: If you're working at a bakery need to have the skill set to write on cakes. Ridiculous. This was one of my favorite bakeries but second time I've had a bad experience with decorating. read more

I have been buying cheese crumb babKa loaf for years here! Even if over priced it was delicious! I ordered like always but when my husband came back from picking it up OMG it is so much smaller! Not only is it smaller it has no crumbs and hardly no cheese in it plus it was over cooked almost burnt! If I had picked it up I would of asked for my money back! So I called the bakery up and complained and they don't give a shit! Well adios amigos... I will never purchase anything from this rip off don't give a shit bakery EVER Again! read more

Growing up, a special treat for our birthdays was to get a beautiful cake from Gaston Ave bakery in Somerville. La Bon has taken its place as of late. Lovely and yummy cakes! But also, breads, bakery treats, and their many monthly/weekly special treats. Always can find something new and worth trying. read more

This was a small place part of a mini strip mall. There was a good amount of items as well as a few free samples to try from. The items ranged from cupcakes to pastries to scones, etc. The prices were reasonable and the staff was friendly. 2 donuts (glazed and chocolate) and a chocolate chip brownie were ordered. The donuts overall were disappointing. They were both too doughy, which made them dry. The glazed and chocolate flavoring were okay though. The chocolate chip brownie was better. The icing was the only part of the brownie I was not a fan of. The brownie itself was moist and tasty. Will I go back? Possibly. read more

Great service and their cake tasted delicious. Highly recommended! Staff is very professional and through!

Nice local bakery specializing more on sweets, cakes, cupcakes. Had my friends birthday cake from them, very delicious, kept refrigerated until I picked it up. Well done. read more

Neighborhood bakery with cheesecake, cupcake cookies and cake varieties. It's priced right but the ambience and food was not very pleasing. Appeared more like a mediocre spot which could do a bit of sprucing up iwith their presentation and decor . They also have hot coffee to buy making it a perfect spot for a quick morning stop. I got the Hungarian , red velvet and brownie cheesecake. Looked moist and and my nieces liked the red velvet . Hungarian was the original cheesecake with a little crystallized sugar sprinkled on top. Not sure why the name ! Maybe thats how cheesecake is served in Hungary ! It's a quick neighborhood spot to pick up a treat but more sure of ordering a large cake for an occasion as they do have that too. I will reserve my comments about their large cakes till I do order one . read more

I've tried several dessert items at this bakery and it's just ok. I'm always disappointed, expecting to smile when I eat something there. But is always just blah. Flavor is definitely missing. It's a last choice spot. Nothing exciting at all read more

My go to place for cakes, especially last minute because they have a pretty good selection. I'm not sure what happened to the cupcakes... don't get me wrong, they're edible but they're hard. Not like a stale, hard but like a cold kind of hard. Like refrigerated. I like my cupcakes to be moist and soft. read more

So far I've had their assortment of cookies, Italian bread and tiramisu cake...all have been soo delicious and my friends and family love them too! I also want to mention how wonderful the bakery staff are. They are always so sweet and calm, they seem to have also attracted likeminded customers. Overall it has been a pleasant and yummy experience and I can't wait until I get to go back and try something new. I know it will be delicious! read more

Excellent service from the staff and superior quality of cakes that I purchased for a dinner Highly recommend them for anyone needing a baker read more

I'll be honest, I usually get my cakes for special events from Sam's Club or Shoprite... cake is cake, right? But, it's really not. Cake from La Bonbonniere is reserved for more special, special occasions (they're priced a bit higher).. like my grandmother's recent 86th birthday. Every year is a blessing, but especially when reaching these milestones.. I said what the heck. and I'm glad that I did. It was beautiful, plentiful, and everyone raved about good it was. When I was placing my order, I was eyeing all of the other goodies that I will most certainly have to treat myself to one day soon. read more

Cakes and cookies are wonderful. Especially love the carrot cake and walnut shortbread cookies.

These 4 cookies that are about twice the size of a quarter cost $4.20 That is absolutely ridiculous. In a time when people are cutting carbohydrates out of their diets you're going to charge over $1 for each of these little acorn cookies???? read more

I was very pleasantly surprised by this bakery given that it's a spin-off of the original location in Edison. As a long-time customer of Gaston Avenue Bakery in Somerville, it's great that there's finally a worthy contender in the area that doesn't include the nasty attitude that you have to deal with. I bought a really good, fresh chocolate buttercream cake and a was treated very well by the (probably) owner, who was so interested in talking with me that I was hardly able to leave. I've deducted a star for the rising prices of the cakes. The quality is still very good but you will feel it in your wallet. read more

Always love their special cakes! Must try bakery and burger cake is so much fun but need to order 4-5 days before time!

Reached out to them online when trying to order sheetcakes for an event. They were quickly responsive and patient for all the questions I had regarding sizing and pricing. When we finally put a to-go tasting order in, we were blown away by how many samples we recieved. It was basically a cake in its own! Some short while later we put or orders in and they were delivered to our event without any hiccups. We had lots of compliments on how good their cakes were. We had strawberries and custard with yellow cake!! read more

Came in looking for a black n white cookie and they had these monsters on display. Their play on the traditional black n white cookie is more of a cake frosting and less of that hard shell like coating but none the less very tasty. Took home a couple of mini cheese cakes that killed the craving but honestly weren't great. Customer service and pricing are on point. I've picked up a few cakes in the past and they are still the reason why you should check out this bakery. read more

I'll give some credit where due for the quality of food, but the prices are a bit inflated. A french baguette is $4?!? You can buy a better baguette in midtown Manhattan for only $3. read more

We ordered catering for a corporate event, from here and will never order again. This place is great for their baked goods but catering not at all. First of all they didn't even get the order right, we told them no coffee, we received coffee and was charge $40. we ordered for 30 people for the executive breakfast and we did not have enough for 30 people. There was BARELY any eggs, and deff not enough for 30 people. They gave us a ton of orange juice that was expired with 01-15-2018 date (today is 2-10-18) I would call them and complain but it's not even worth it, we just know not to order from them again. We are upset because we expected more since their awesome with their baked goods. read more

After trying a couple treats from La Bonbonniere and coming HIGHLY recommended from my co-workers, I went in to the bakery to order a nice birthday cake for my friend. The two employees working immediately offered to help and offer recommendations. When I mentioned my friend likes tiramisu, I was informed that they have a tiramisu cake I could order! After looking around at many other tasty options, I decided to go with the employee's recommendation for the tiramisu cake. The next day, they had the cake ready on time, had some candles on hand for me to purchase, and best of all...the cake was amazing! The cake was beautifully decorating and had a smooth, light texture to it. Wonderful experience and amazing product. I highly recommend! read more

Selection wasn't the most impressive, but they had everything I wanted so that was good. I LOVED the Italian rainbow cookies here- nice thick chocolate and real jelly. Just wonderful. The carrot cake was dense and had nuts, but the frosting was a little sweet and no raisins in the cake. That said, still very good. The only thing I got that I did not enjoy was the donut. Way too thick, and the icing ratio was off. Also a little stale. Just skip that. Bread looked great. I'd hit these guys up again. read more

Ordered sheet cake here for a wedding rehearsal dinner. Had never used La Bon Bakery before and chose it based on reviews. They did a phenomenal job. I sent a pic of the happy couple to be used on top of the cake and the words I wanted on the cake. When I picked it up I was more than pleased. And when everyone saw the cake later that evening, they were also amazed at how great it looked. But looks aren't everything. Many times bakery sheet cakes are just okay. This cake wasn't just okay, it was super delicious. I picked a chocolate cake with fudge icing, request of the bride to be. Everyone commented on how delicious the cake was and kept going back for another piece even though stuff from dinner. The cake was chocolatey, moist and not overly sweet. I would definitely recommend La Bon to anyone looking to get a cake for a special occasion. Actually, I'd go there for any time I want a baked good. Great job La Bon! read more

my grandma always gets my birthday cakes from here. they're so pretty and so yummy! thanks, La Bon!
