    Cheddar bacon and chives scone
    Yvonne L.

    Super tasty!! The Linzer tart I was especially fond of - the cookie part was soft, and tons of tangy jam filling! (Just be careful getting powdered sugar everywhere!) The cheddar bacon and chives scone and tiramisu parfait were also delicious! Lots of other options as well that I will be back to try more of.

    This is a Tres Leches cake. Completely dry.
    Frank B.

    They made up for it. Greatly appreciate the customer service. The staff was super friendly as they navigated my issue. Still have an amazing tres leches.

    Simple naked cake with cute decor on top. Delicious!

    The Bulgarian cheesecake is delicious! Also picked up a small cake for about 10-12 people last minute for micro wedding and it was light, fluffy and delicious.

    Almond Cigar, Carrot Cake cupcake, and Apple Crumb Square
    Kimberly S.

    Stopped by on a weekday afternoon to get some treats to take home after having lunch nearby. I decided on the almond cigar, an apple crumb cake , and a carrot cake cupcake. The total was $10.00 for my purchase. I really enjoyed everything... the almond cigar was nice and flaky with a good almond flavor, the cupcake was very moist with a delicious cream cheese frosting and the apple crumb that I ate the next morning for breakfast was great with the apples and a nice crumb topping dusted with powdered sugar. I would definitely like to try some of their other selections next time I'm in the area.

    Spicy Italian and this is AMAZING!!!
    Aarron W.

    Man o man La bonbonniere brings it all seemingly and is a true diamond in the rough. Located in a almost empty strip mall and next to some reeky sushi spot this bakery is fairly easy to spot. They offer high quality desserts, with my eyes glazing over on the red velvet cheesecake...... Anyways they have a lunch deal for $7.50 you can pick two different half sandwiches ( made the same day) that come out to a foot long. We both selected the spicy Italian and the spicy turkey. Spicy Italian ( 5 stars) dang this was good. It was clear that this was high quality deli meat with deli style cheese slices. With some red peppers to add some spice, it was destroyed fast. Spicy turkey (5 stars) another home run! The sandwich had a spicy mustard-aioli style spread that added a slow burn to the sandwich, but again it was quality! Looking forward to eating out there again!!! 74

    7 layer Chocolate Cake!! YUMMMY
    Bhavnit K.

    I was traveling with my family and wanted to buy a cake for the event that night. The only bakery opened was this. After searching it for half hour we finally parked the car in front of it. It was a nice place with so many cakes, cookies and biscotti. I have posted many pictures of the shop as they variety of cakes. We got seven layers chocolate cake. The person on the counter was polite and was suggesting and telling us how these cakes are made. They have also got homemade jams.

    Dad's 50th. Blue ombré vanilla cake filled with vanilla & chocolate custard. Made to order for a Winter Wonderland themed party.
    Sargam B.

    I love this place! I decided to first try out this place for my dad's 50th birthday party. I saw a gorgeous cake in the display and asked for them to make it in blue for the winter wonderland theme I had planned. This cake came out perfect and was adored by everyone. Plus, it tasted delicious! I have gone here several times afterwards to get cakes for various occasions including the checkerboard cake as well as the raspberry ganache cake. I loved the former, but the latter was a bit too sweet for my liking. I haven't tried their other assortments of sweets/pastries yet, but definitely intend to! I also always eye at their spicy Italian sandwich in their display window but have never been hungry enough to get it. Will be doing that sometime soon. Keep you posted! P.S. Their prices are pretty reasonable. I've gotten both the raspberry ganache and checkerboard cake for about $20-25.

    Kristine T.

    Absolutely amazing! 5 stars! The cake was beautifully decorated & it tasted just as good as it looked on the inside. Prices are reasonable. Couldn't have asked for better, seriously all around. Thank you for making my mom's 60th birthday one to remember!!!

    Dj B.

    Everything they make is fantastic. From cakes to pies and cookies. Every celebration in the family we stop in to pick up something.

    My empty box
    Calvin L.

    Outstanding. There chocolate mouse bomb cake is the bomb. I will always recommend. There squares ( cheese cake, red velvets, carrot cake etc) are the perfect size for a snack or if you want to bring sweets for family or parties. They have all sorts of sweets to cup cakes cookies and cakes and fruit tarts. It's my favorite stop to satisfy my sweet tooth. I highly highly recommend. Always fresh never stale. Staff are very helpful and friendly. You won't be disappointed except when your box is empty.

I haven't tried too many cakes in the area so I can't truly compare to give it a full 5 star rating BUT the comments I hear a lot of is they use fresh fruit in their cakes. I usually get birthday cakes from Asian bakeries where fresh fruit is expected so that was an interesting comment to make from my POV. The fruit birthday cakes I've had from here are pretty good. Not too sweet and the most interesting fruit fillings I've had in cake - banana! Among other fruits. The cake isn't as light/airy as I'm used to but not bad at all. The buttercream is on the sweeter side for me but okay if you eat it with the cake and don't leave it until the end. It's not a terribly thick layer. But the cakes were super colorful and it's a lot of food coloring with how saturated the colors are. Your mouth and tongue will be stained if you're not careful. Having said that, I ordered an Oreo cake because that's why my kid wants. BUT I did request that instead of buttercream on the outside, it'll be whipped cream. Still buttercream on the inside though. I'll update this review after the party as it hasn't happened yet. This is a shop that sort of takes you back when you walk in. It's located in a corner shopping center of sorts and they have a shared parking lot so no need to hunt for parking. It has a nostalgic feel with display cases along much of the length, refrigerated sections for drinks (some were Asian which surprised me) and ice cream cake. Plus a wall of candles and birthday cake decorations because they do take a lot of orders for special occasions. No extra frills and nothing for decor's sake. There was a steady line when I went on Sunday morning. Two doors, one designed to be the entrance and the other the exit (but there isn't a police so use whichever door, but the line starts at the entrance door). As you walk up to the counter, someone will help you out. They've got all sorts of things from pastries to cookies, cakes, cupcakes, cannoli's, pies... even a tres leches section that was woefully empty. The only thing is for some odd reason, there are signs of what the items were, but absolutely no prices were posted in the display cases. At least none that I was aware of. I was passed onto the manager to take my order. It took a little time because I'm pretty sure she also decorates cakes and some people were waiting on them but I eventually got my order in. A 9" Oreo cake (for up to 16 people) with whipped cream exterior and birthday message is about $75. I added on a tres leches on a whim - they sold out early but a new batch just finished so I got one straight from the kitchen - was roughly $10. Receipts are old school, orders taken on a paper pad with a carbon copy given to you. I've had a number of tres leches cakes before and this is one of a kind! Deliciously moist, whipped topping - and the cake is halved. In between, they put fruit in there! Plus a maraschino cherry on top and cinnamon dusted over it. It was nowhere near "too sweet" and I rather enjoyed it. A lot. In fact, I'm thinking of calling in to see if I can get some for the party for the adults. My picky daughter loved it. Overall, I have a pretty good impression of this bakery and I'm looking to trying more items over time.

    This place is a gem and really deserves to be highlighted! Although it looks like a small shop on…read moreMain Street in Metuchen, it's a booming and popular bubble tea place. Love coming here and seeing people from toddler age to folks with their grandparents. Bubble tea is for all! My husband loves to try the new fruity varieties that get added to the menu. Every few weeks there is a new, unique fruit combination that blows him away. I stick to my tried and true Thai iced tea with boba, and NOWHERE else has been able to compete. The details are what makes this place stand out. If you buy multiple drinks, they place your order in an adorable, reusable purple bag. Also, there is a rewards program. So if you're an avid boba drinker, make sure you sign up. Every few orders you can score a free bite to eat or bubble tea. Since it's a hit spot, this place can get packed at peak times (post work hours, and especially on weekends). So happy to have such a lovely shop in my town. Thanks, Akihi!

The inside was very different from your usual bubble tea spot, and it was very welcoming and cozy. I could definitely see myself just chilling and reading a book while enjoying my food and drink. I placed my order through the kiosk while looking over the menu, which had a lot of good options. I couldn't make up my mind and decided to go with the bubble tea and Oreo waffle crepe. Both items were good, and I enjoyed the waffle, which had ice cream as the filling and was stuffed with fillings, but it was a little difficult to eat since the wrapper is not very practical, and I had to use my hands, so it got a bit messy. Did I regret it? No way, I loved it; hopefully, they would just have a better container for it, lol. Definitely will get a sugar rush, so be careful hahaha. I would definitely go back to try the other flavors

The rich, creamy texture combined with the robust flavor of rum and the sweet, chewy raisins created a delightful symphony of taste and texture. My companion opted for a strawberry ice cream shake. While it was well-prepared, the flavor didn't quite resonate with me, as strawberry isn't my preferred choice. However, for those who enjoy a classic strawberry shake, it would likely be a satisfying option. I am eager to return for another serving of the Rum & Raisin ice cream. Next time, I plan to enhance the experience by adding a sprinkle of walnuts or hazelnuts, introducing a delightful crunch that would complement the smooth, rich base. Great service and they have few outdoor benches as well to enjoy your ice cream.

    Best soft serve I have ever had!!!…read more Honestly... I can't say enough good things about this place. To say I was pleasantly surprised I'd an understatement. I got a soft serve swirl with cookie dough bites and it was delicious. The ice cream is perfectly creamy, and the vanilla had an almost marshmallow-y taste to it. It also sort of reminded me of the cream inside an Oreo. Perfectly balanced between creamy and cold- it didn't taste watered down or too "Icy". My mom and my 16 month old also agreed. (Ok, my mom agreed. My son was a fan but he doesn't quite understand just how good it was yet.) My son didn't finish his, so we brought it back with us to upstate NY. Yes, it was good enough to save in the freezer at our hotel and then to shlep back home so I could enjoy one more time. And also so my husband could try it since I couldn't stop raving about it. Also worth noting- I'm very impressed at their variety. They have lots of soft serve and hard ice cream flavors. I hope I have another work trip that brings me back, cause I will be dreaming of this ice cream until then!
