I work in Bay Ridge but after seeing this sweet Nonno on social media making Sfogliatelle, I knew I…read morehad to stop in for some Christmas pastries. Walking in to this Bushwick bakery is like stepping back in time. I remember like it was yesterday, going to the bakery in Canarsie with my grandfather Sunday morning to buy local bread and Italian baked goods. All of the men wore hats, it was something that always stuck with me. This holiday season, I always want to have the same Italian Baked goods in my home. A struffoli ring is a must, every year I buy a extra ring for my high school buddy/barber. This Christmas season, I decided to swing by Circo's Pastry Shop and go a little wild! I see the beautiful storefront and park across the street. Walking inside is managed chaos. I can see various baskets ready to be picked up. It seems like my idea, everyone else has as well. I see the owners son from the videos on the phone taking orders and I'm assuming his mom behind the counter. I ask if its ok to take two struffoli baskets but I spy with my little eye Sfogliatelle. I order a few cannoli as well as a Large Sfogliatelle to go. I jump in my jeep and I'm so excited to bring everything home. Except that Sfogliatelle was calling me. I'm on the Long Island Expressway and I ripped that box open like a fiend! OMG, that Sfogliatelle was soooo good! It was very fresh and I was covered with flaky layers. The interior of the Sfogliatelle was spongy, just like I remember as a kid. Circo's Pastry Shop, thank you for the trip down memory lane. Great pastries, I can't wait to return.

Wholesale bakery with a makeshift retail space in Long Island City. Similar to other bakeries that…read morespecializes in wholesale, the retail side is a quick, no frills setup at the front of the wholesale operation. They're friendly, but there is no space to linger. Certainly a grab and go set up. I'd highly recommend picking up any of their items if you see them at cafes; everything we tried was excellent! We had a double chocolate muffin, a slice of chocolate banana bread, a blueberry scone, and a blueberry crumb muffin. I'd recommend any of them! All the pastries had perfect consistency with a balance of density and fluffiness. Everything seemed to be on the moist side.

This place just opened a couple of weeks ago. I was very happy and pleased with the experience I…read morehad here! The staff is incredibly helpful and kind! They walked me through their large selection of cookies and gave me their personal favorites as a recommendation. The cookies themselves are so delicious and rich! Honestly they are some of my favorite cookies of all time. I never had a cookie that was so warm, soft and gooey! It hits the spot and is just an all around amazing cookie! It's crazy to think I've already gone twice . The crème brûlée cookie is my favorite one, followed by the cookies n cream one. They have such a large variety of options, they have a flavor for everyone. They also have ice cream and milkshakes and soft serve. While I haven't tried the ice cream yet, it looks amazing! The place is super clean, super spacious and has a nice vibe to it. The owner also mentioned there is an outdoor patio so you can have your cookies and ice cream outdoors! Really great spot and I hope they stay in the neighborhood!!

The cookies were sweet and tasted like described. I like how salted the chocolate chip cookie was, would probably have been better had it been warmed up. Miso PB was covered with crystallized sugar and chewy like a molasses cookie. Strawberry basil oddly kind of tasted lemon-y to me. I like the jam, it's very soft and not like a crumbly shortbread cookie at all. My least favorite out of the 3.

I've been meaning to visit saint street cakes after all the TikTok's and even the owners TikTok's…read more Her cakes look so whimsical and fun! Absolutely lovely bakery. It is so charming and quaint inside. When I entered the right side was all small tiered cakes and the left side was cookies and other pastries. I had my heart set out on a salted chocolate chip cookie and luckily there were a lot still in stock. A steep price of $6.50 total so it was a splurge and I would really need to crave one again next time. The outdoor indoor seating is adorable. It would be lovely to read a book and a little pastry there to enjoy. Definitely a special occasion spot.

My husband and I stumbled upon this spot with some friends that were looking for breakfast. We…read moreweren't planning to eat anything, but the donuts looked so good, we had to get some. We shared: - Mango Passion Donut - La Donna (Raspberry & Black Currant) Donut - Calamansi Meringue Donut They were all fantastic. I couldn't pick a favorite because I loved them all. I'd say these are in the top 5 donuts that I've ever had. I was trying to have a slight amount of self control, but there were at least 3 more that I wanted to try. If I lived nearby, I'd be here all the time. Do yourself a favor and give them a try.

I enjoy Fan Fan Doughnut. I had the coffee donut on Donut Day and it was so fluffy…read more This donut is not chewy at all. It's colossally big and very, very easy to chew on without needing something hot and wet like coffee or tea. But I do think it would be better with a drink. What I've also noticed is that they really prioritize the decorations on the donuts, and I think that also brings out their peak service. I was served during the Governors Ball where there were a lot of people and a lot of vendors. They handled their service very well. I couldn't tell you the exact location of the place because it was a vendor, but I assume it's probably somewhere I would conveniently go to. I definitely wanna go to the Brooklyn location.
