Mannino's Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

This is my favorite bakery in Michigan. I have been going there since I was a kid, and the quality of the baked goods, the kindness of the staff, and the cleanliness of the store has never changed! I love their mini cannolis, deep fried croissants, and bear claws. They have a huge selection of Italian cookies, and fun cupcakes for the kids. Their Italian cassata cake is the best I have had. People love when I bring over desserts from Mannino's! read more

I have been going to Mannino's Bakery since I was a little kid, I grew up right across the street. Everything they have there is amazing! From cakes, to cookies, to donuts. I was lucky enough to have them do our wedding cake. We had layers in with fudge and ganache in ours because my husband loves dense cakes. It was such a treat! I definitely recommend Manninos for all your bakery needs! read more

See all

Best cannolis in town even better than the ones I had in Italy . The little cakes are also very good. Friendly and helpful staff

Every time I walk in the bake goods smell so delicious. They are so friendly with a prompt greeting. They did an amazing job on our wedding cake and sweets table at our wedding reception with decent price, everyone enjoyed it and couldn't say enough good things about it. I have purchased their bake goods and enjoyed it with others. I would definitely recommend them for events, such as a wedding, as they provide quality bake goods and professional service. read more

I like it i love it i like cake love it to death it's amazing food I love there Roblox cake I got it for my Son it was good

I picked up cake on Friday, 6/25/21. Just one piece was cut from cake that day. On Saturday, 6/26/21, I opened box to serve. The upper layer of cake had split in half; all of the roses (which I paid $10 extra) had slid off cake and icing was just puddled in bottom of box! I tried cutting a piece from the other "half" of cake, however, while doing so all of the roses slid off this side as well! There was virtually no icing left on the top! For the $$$$ I paid for this cake, one piece, NEVER AGAIN! I should not have gone to this bakery for such an important occasion! Save your money and go elsewhere!!! read more

This is a serious Italian Bakery. I had a cherry nut cake for a family members birthday and it was so good, I drove across town to get my daughters birthday cake there. My only gripe is the "speciality batters" which they have quite a few of, you have to order a minimum of 48 hours in advance. I ended up with a wonderful cake -- what she told me was their most popular, filled with canole cream. Sooooooooo goooood! Next time I am gong to custom order all the fillings in cupcakes so I can try the different flavors! Worth the drive! read more

They are next door to Antonio's market, and that's how we found them. The other reviewers have mentioned the high quality of the cannoli, and I agree absolutely. I have to add that making good cannoli is not rocket science - fresh crisp shells and lightly flavored and sweetened ricotta filling are all you need. The problem is that the filled shells rapidly get soggy and soft if they sit too long. Also, the ricotta (being cheese) starts to spoil. So, many restaurants and bakeries serve extremely un-Italian - let's call them goyish - cannoli made from some sort of artificial cannoli-shell-like objects filled with preservative-laced commercial vanilla custard. (Okay, yes, I eat them. But I make faces and complain.) That's why a good bakery like Mannino's carries both real cannoli and goyish cannoli. The tray with the real cannoli (it's on the right as soon as you walk in the door) is sometimes empty because they like to keep them fresh, but do not let that discourage you. Ask, and they might make some for you on the spot. Then you will know why Fat Clemenza said, "Leave the gun, take the cannoli." By the way, I love the people behind the counter. They know who pays the bills, and they are unfailingly nice to us customers no matter how crowded and hectic it gets. read more

I hated cannoli until I had it from Mannino's. I just never understood the draw, really- here's a dry, overly-deep fried flavorless crisp tube with equally bland whipped cream. Most of them taste like they've had that nasty ReddiWhip sprayed in there. Blech. Then, I had the Mannino's ricotta cream filled cannoli. There's an almost custard quality to the filling, and the pastry was light, delicately crisp, and melt-in-your-mouth good. I got mine with nuts capping the ends, much preferable to the ubiquitous maraschino cherry. I snarfled these while waiting for them to bring out the two cassata cakes I ordered for my italian friend's birthday. WONDERFUL cakes. Again, there was no skimping on the filling, it was the right ricotta mixture rather than a simple whipped cream. The yellow cake was the show stopper, while the chocolate version was only meh (and this from a major chocohound). The yellow had just the right balance of delicate, spongy cake to cool, thick cream- also, the buttercream frosting was the best I've ever had. The chocolate cake was heavier, denser, and the flavors didn't interplay quite as well as they could have. Of course, being Polish, I also had to grab a box of angel wings, just to see how they were. I broke into the box on my drive back to Ferndale; soon, I was covered in white powder like Bronson Pinchot in his infamous car scene in True Romance. Though not the best angel wings (cough*newwpalacebakery*cough), they were delicious and went well with my coffee when I arrived at my final destination. If you've never had cassata cake, I urge you to try it from Mannino's. Vito's on the eastside is also a winner, but the yellow cake version I received from Mannino's trumps everything else I've every had. Bonus: 2 full sized cakes only set me back about $30. read more

This is the first time I have written a review and I am doing so because this bakery needs to start treating their customers like they matter. Warning: If you are looking to order a cake for a special occasion and you want it decorated a certain way, this is NOT the bakery for you! I spent 45 minutes in the bakery ordering my cake, and supplying a picture. The clerk clearly wrote everything on a order form and stapled my picture to the order form. A few days later I received a phone call from the decorator as she wanted to go over how I wanted the cake decorated. She was extremely rude but promised to decorated my cake as we discussed. My husband went to get our cake right before our party and saw it was not decorated as it was supposed to be so he called me. I mean nothing was as I requested, down to the fact that I didn't want roses on the cake, but I got roses. I talked to her on the phone and asked why she didnt follow any of my instructions. She never apologized or gave me any reason as to why she decided to decorate my cake to her own specs and she was totally rude to me. My husband said the owner Marie was there and never offered any solution or discount. I called on the phone a few days later and talked to Mario and again, he offered no solution or discount. I paid $68.75 for this cake and I have learned a lesson, never pay in full up front, especially at this place. This bakery does not care about their customers. Shop elsewhere if you truly want a special cake. read more

Awesome cakes, cannoli, cupcakes especially the bumpy ones. I love the caramel bumpy cupcakes the most! Yummy

After reading so many great reviews , I was curious about thouse cannoli's . So here I am ! When I opened the door ... Ahhh smell heavenly !! And so many to choose from . I ended up buying chocolate cannoli , regular cannoli (both taste veeeery good) , the ecleres was good too I didn't was crazy with the cream on the top , and the last was a small romantic raspberry cake if I'm not making a mistake with the name . Well I hate the butter creams on the cakes , and I hate when is not smooth and feels the sugar . But next time I wana try the cassata cake , so maybe I will be more lucky ! The staff was so friendly , and had so much patience with me . Hey is hard to choose when you have so many choises . read more

Mannino's Bakery - The best looking cake - Bakeries Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

My go-to-bakery. You've must go, now.. All our Birthday cakes and all our special occasions and Holidays feature Mannino's treats!!

I absolutely love this place!! From the cakes to the donuts to the cannoli's and everything in between, this by far, is the best bakery in the state!! I give Mannino's my highest recommendation...if you're in the neighborhood, stop and get something. You won't be sorry. read more

This is my favoritest bakery. I am literally obsessed with her cake, it is super moist and it is not too street. The frosting on the cake is fluffy and percect for my taste. read more

Let me just start off by saying that this is a review of two things: 1. My experience with Jessica Mannino, their go-to girl for wedding cakes 2. Baked goods that would make you fall to your knees in Italian bakery heaven. I had an appointment with Jessica (wonderkind of all things wedding cake at Mannino's) but wanted to stop in a few weeks before to check the place out. What can I say? I'm a sucker for baked goods and I have a problem stopping (not exactly great for a bride, eh?). My Mom and I stopped by and we ended up buying a ton (not a regret!) including peanut butter cookies, raspberry filled cookies, cannolis and much more. I ate them with no shame all the way home. Everything was airy, baked to perfection, but my absolute favorite would have to be the peanut butter brownie. Any blend of peanut butter and rich chocolate is the ultimate in guilty pleasures for me. I guess I'm not that hard to figure out. My second experience at Mannino's was my wedding cake tasting appointment with Jessica. I brought two friends along including one of my beloved bridesmaids. We were promptly greeted by the (very) pleasant Jessica and were seated with a combination of iced cupcakes (based on a selection I had chosen prior to coming in) and fillings for us to mix and match at our leisure. The experience was heavenly to say the least. Not only did Jessica answer every single question I had (is there a price difference between round and square cakes? are my combinations disgusting? do you have anything off-menu that you would suggest? what is the contingency plan for back up cakes in case of emergency on my wedding day?) with patience and a ton of advice. When we wanted to try more flavors, she brought us additional items from the kitchen (which she didn't have to) and spent way more time than scheduled talking to us although she had (this is no joke) 20 brides that day in total. The prices were good, the cakes were moist, the information was more than we could have ever asked for. Both of my experiences have been fantastic at Mannino's and I plan on returning very soon, whether I end up pursuing (or forgoing) a wedding cake. read more

I heard about this bakery from a friend. Ordered a cassata cake to have as dessert for Easter and the hour long drive was totally worth it! I had originally tried a cassata from another well known Italian market but was dissatisfied. Mannino's knocked theirs out of the ballpark! The cake was so creamy and moist and the cream in the middle had big chunks of chocolate in it. The best!!!! read more

Have been going to Maria's bakery for years. Everything there is SO DELICIOUS, especially the cannolis (could only find one bakery in Italy that sold equally delicious cannolis). Because everything is so good, it is difficult to make a decision as to what to buy. read more

Love this bakery. Best cakes ever. Beautiful and tasty. Great breads, cookies. Just face it, everything is so good. read more

A friend recommended this place after I had an emergency need for a birthday cake for the next day. They did an amazing job with short notice, the ladies were very accommodating with the cake choices and even accommodated our personal opinions on the cake. They use a very light whip topping, so it was not at all overbearing like most grocery store cakes are. Loved the customer service and the overall beautiful cake!! read more

Mannino's Bakery - Alex's first birthday - Bakeries Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

Hands down the best Cassata cake and cannoli's around and dare I mention their glazed croissants? It's my go to place whenever I want to surprise someone with a little something special or get assigned to bring dessert to a dinner party. The folks behind the counter are always friendly and it has a family bakery feel in a world full of SAMs Clubs. The lines are long around the holidays but the end result is worth it. Every item behind those glass counters is a must have. read more

I definitely highly recommend this place! Not only was the cake super tasty, it also got the design I wanted spot on. I won't be going anywhere else if I need a cake or pastries. This is the place to go. read more

Beyond terrible!!! This is the (second) time i purchased a supposedly "Fresh" baked Cherry Pie only to get it home to find the filling "jellied" and the middle still frozen. As I stated this is the second time the same thing happened. Fresh means fresh! Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on ME! Never again you crooks. read more

I ordered my wedding cake though Mannino's and it was beyond my expectations! It was so beautiful and looked exactly like I envisioned. Daniela was prompt in communication and made the process so easy. They were so accommodating when I changed the design a few times in the months before the wedding. I would definitely order any big event cake from here again!!! read more

If you're searching for an excellent Italian bakery where they provide great customer service, competitive pricing, and delicious freshly baked Italian goods, then, I highly recommend, Mannino's bakery. My family and I've been going to this nostalgic gem of a bakery for many years; so this review is long overdue, and well deserved. Upon entering their lovely, brightly-lit, clean store, you'll enjoy the smell of fresh, sweet aromas, and your eyes instantly directed to the glass encased artistically decorated pastries from every imaginable mouthwatering baked good desired. Once you've tasted, their famous delicious cassata and cannoli pastries, it's easy to understand why they're voted #1 in Michigan, likewise, recommended is their heavenly varieties of cakes, pies, cookies, breads and other goodies. All divine! Furthermore, they're very accommodating with last minute requests, for those unexpected family occasions, and upon waiting during prep-time for decorating the cake, they're always very friendly, helpful, and professional. All the best on their continued success, and looking forward to my next visit. Sincerely, A very satisfied customer read more

One of my favorite bakeries. They always have a great selection of cupcakes and they are delicious. Go in the middle of the afternoon as this place can get very busy when people are off work and the weekends. read more

I have been coming here since I was about 6 years old. I have never been disappointed with anything ordered. My family and I continue to order birthday cakes, graduation cakes, and baptism/communion cakes. I would have gladly ordered my wedding cake from here as well, but received a better deal elsewhere. I love the Italian butter cookies with the colored sprinkles (The only way to go! No chocolate sprinkles for me!). I have had them other places, and they just don't compare to Manino's. read more

We love Mannino's! Cakes are always fresh and also enjoy their butter cookies. We went to a wedding and I knew it was a Mannino's cake, confirmed by the bride, by the beautiful design and delicious cake. Their decorations are detailed and always look perfect. read more

Lovely little Italian bakery. We were in town from Indianapolis, where we have no Italian bakeries or grocery stores, so we had to stop by. The cannoli are wonderful, and the other baked goods are really good too. The donut filled with cassata cream was especially nice. We will be back next time we are in the area! read more

I live near this bakery, and have heard many great things! My mom and me were driving by and just made a spontaneous stop to try some things out. The guy helping us was very informative and gave us information on pricing, and the variety of bakery items they had. We split a red velvet cupcake with the most delicious cream cheese frosting, a tiramisu cup, and a cannoli. My mom and me LOVED the cannoli. It tasted incredibly fresh and the cannoli cream was amazing. Definitely will be back! read more

The people that work they are very courteous and accommodating which is rare nowadays. Been coming for years and they never stop to amaze me. Thank you for the joy of eating those yummy treats and great service. I cant wait to come back for more! read more

I recently purchased an array of desserts for a birthday party. The fruit cheesecake was the highlight of all the desserts! It tasted extremely fresh and not too heavy or dense. I would give that cheesecake a 5/5! Unfortunately the two different types of cupcakes and the bearclaw were closer to 3/5 stars. Great flavor, but very dry almost to the point where they could've been a few days old. Tons of options ranging from bread, cakes, cupcakes, and all variety of desserts. I would definitely recommend this bakery for cakes! read more

Simply the best all around. Whenever I come to town this bakery is one of my first stops. Then on my way out I stop and load up

I have been going to Mannino's bakery for years. I have never purchased anything that wasn't delicious. Between the brownies, cakes,donuts, cupcakes, cookies or their bread we have enjoyed it all. read more

Quite upsetting to see workers taking cash with their gloved hands and then moving directly to handling bread and confections with the very same gloved hands never thinking to put on new gloves. I'm sure it's just an oversight but with COVID-19 right in our faces, we have to be extra cautious. read more

Manninos has very good Tarelli cookies and Cassada cakes. However, the last few times I've bought their eclairs the chocolate frosting was absolutely tasteless. So disappointed as it used to be delicious. Wish they would use the old frosting recipe and/or better ingredients. read more

Super Duper Yummy but get there early! My husband and I love coming here! Great donuts, super yummy cannolis and cartuchies (spelling for sure!) and he only will get bakery bread from here! We even got our wedding shower cake- Cassata cake- from here and it was perfect! Small little place but they get you in and out ;) read more
