L.A. Sweets NY made our incredible vegan, four-tiered wedding cake. It was delicious and everyone…read morekept saying so! Many couldn't believe it was all vegan (and I was so glad a place that has non-vegan and vegan cakes got it so right). The sponge was perfectly balanced between having crumb and being moist, the frosting was decadent but light; the cake itself was beautiful and elegantly made. (Also this cake safely made its way to another borough in over 90-degree heat and high humidity). Loretta was so helpful in making sure this special cake would be what we wanted and more. Thank you L.A. Sweets NY!

So incredibly disappointing, paid $28 for three slices of cake. The Red Velvet was all right and so…read morewas the strawberry, the toasted coconut pineapple was very disappointing. Super dry not a lot of icing stale coconut with very little canned pineapple. These cakes were mediocre, and I was expecting a lot more. Especially for almost $30 ‍‍‍‍

The cake is a 6 out of 5 stars. I ordered my wedding cake from cake man raven and if you know…read moreanything about cake man raven you can guess what took place when I arrived for my scheduled pickup. They had no record of my order. I walked out with somebody else's order of two sheet cakes. The chef at my wedding spot made a wedding cake on the spot out of the two sheet cakes. When I said "cake man raven" in response to the question of what happened, she just said "ahh.." and nodded, no other explanation necessary. She was a cake man raven vet apparently. The wedding guests devoured the cake. The entire wedding went silent with people heads down eating every crumb of that cake. So many people said it was some of the best cake they have had. Do I bring this high stakes wedding cake story up to cake man raven when I drive to Harem from Brooklyn after exchanging text messages for an order? No, I don't bring it up. I'm just happy the man eventually brings the cake. Enjoy the cake, don't expect change (or plan your wedding with this cake) and you will be ok. Play it cool and show up somewhere with a cake man raven cake where they don't know the deal, then watch them fall in love with the cake and attempt to reproduce your feat of procuring a cake man raven cake. Sit back and enjoy (play dumb) as they tell you their own rookie story of attempting to conduct a routine cake transaction with cake man raven.

I usually go to the UES location but I happened to be in the UWS area a few months ago and wanted…read moreto stop at By the Bakery to buy some baked goods for my friends since I love this bakery and want everyone to know how wonderful it is! I got two bags of their almond cookies and four of their cupcakes: two black and white cupcakes (chocolate cupcake with white frosting) and two of the "M" cupcakes (vanilla cupcake with chocolate frosting). This was my second time having their almond cookies and it was still delicious and not too sweet! I also had their "M" cupcake before so this time, I tried their black and white cupcake. It was okay, a tad bit bitter for me and reminded me of an oreo, I wouldn't get it again but that's just my preference. My friends who have tried their black and white cupcakes loved it though. Their "M" cupcake still remains the superior cupcake flavor and just overall my number one item from this bakery! Both locations seem to be consistent in their products, however, two things I noticed different in terms of this location was that I couldn't just enter the bakery, you need to wait for the employee to ring you in. And they also packaged the almond cookie bags kind of fancy, they wrapped it with a ribbon and attached their logo on the bag. I thought it was a cute touch :)

Also it's great that staff is polite but a smile wouldn't hurt.
