    Dry, hard, stale
    Rose A.

    I came here yesterday mid day to pick up some bday treats for my husband. He was excited to see I got a box of 7 layer cookies because they're his favorite, but he could have broke his tooth on how hard they were. Days, if not WEEKS old stale. I could not even break these cookies apart with my hands. What an embarrassment. I've absolutely never experienced this from a bakery before. (You can see how dry and stale they are in the photos. Can't even deny it.)

    Carrot Cake

    The service is amazing, the girls are very sweet. The carrot cake is to die for. I mean it's incredible. They offer this sampler of bite size cakes..it's a genius idea. Although I just get mostly carrot cake!! Their red velvet is delicious too. I have not had anything from this bakery that I haven't loved. Very very clean.

    Mark's Bake Shop is tucked away in a small plaza on Richmond Rd. We have seen this shop in a few blogs with good reviews and I had to see for myself. It's super cute when walking in, it was packed with tons of different baked goods. If you want to stay and have your dessert there, they have a few tables in the middle to sit. They have pies, cookies, cakes, cannolis, coffee, breads. There is just so much to choose from. We looked around and settled on some minis that were in one of the cases. It didn't have a tag and we thought they were cheesecake and didn't find out until after she put them in the box. We asked like three times. We also got a cookie, a Nutella pretzel cookie. The baked goods are reasonably priced. The minis we got were strawberry shortcake, carrot cake, Carmel chocolate, chocolate with pecan, red velvet, 7layer, marble with cannoli and cannolis. I will start with the Nutella pretzel cookie. It was messy, super hard to eat and I thought I was gonna crack my tooth. I wouldn't get this again. The cannolis were still crunchy. the cream tasted like it was ricotta mixed with butter cream. They were good but different. I enjoyed the carrot cake. It was moist and tasty. Shortcake was the same. Chocolate cakes were a little dry and sweet, same with the 7 layer. Red velvet was little sweet. The marble was good same with the cannoli cream. Overall, MBS is a good alternative to your usual shop. There was some hits and misses here but I would def give it another shot. Parking in lot, also street parking (355)

    Apple pie $16

    Ordered for a 2nd time. Got a funfetti cake. $28 Can order online - so easy Added instructions for writing on cake and they did just what I asked Everyone is still masked - thanks for taking care of yourselves and your community The cake is really good and generously filled and topped w like cake pop bites on top. It's really sweet but that's funfetti. I wish the cake was a tiny bit moister but overall a great cake from a great bakery FYI parking lot is a little tight

    Chocolate cake with buttercream topping.

    I am only rating this location for the cute bakery shop and this cake I picked up for Mother's Day. The cake was absolutely beautiful! The buttercream had the right mixture and it was delicious to eat. My mother enjoyed her cake and I want to thank you! It brought good memories for us from a good Italian bakery in Brooklyn we grew up in. If you are missing a delicious buttercream cake from a Italian bakery in Brooklyn. You will be happy with this cake. I apologize that the photo is not the best.

    Rainbow cake-- I tried a sample, pretty good!

    Mark makes the most awesome donuts that might compare to Voodoo Donuts. And the entire check came to $27.50 for five donuts: s'mores Nutella, Boston Cream, Peanut Butter and Jelly,, Maple Bacon and French Crueler AND a chocolate cake that says "Happy Birthday" no extra charge. I contemplated getting a cake at Lady M for $100 but then they wanted $5 to write happy birthday on the cake. Ridiculous. That turned me off of Lady M so much!!!! Mark's bakery does not charge anything to write happy birthday on the cake, plus they appreciate my business a lot more. Just say no to rip offs. Support small businesses.

    Three obligatory cookies for the car ride back home
    Gigi A.

    My brother in law raves about this place and I came out of my way to come here on 4th of July to bring a cake to a BBQ. So glad I did! First, they were open on 4th of July, so I find their hours convenient. The parking lot was spacious. Upon entering, we were offered samples of Potato Chip and Chocolate chip cookies. Not a typo - Potato. Chip. Cookie. Pretty interesting concept and a fun idea if you need a treat or are bringing cookies to someone. Yes sometimes you NEED a cookie. No judgements, big is beautiful. The salted caramel chocolate cake was the real star. Moist, unique and flavorful. You can get 6 generous sized piece from this cake or 8 skinny person pieces or 4 my kind of pieces. Either way, I was very impressed with how delicious it was. Only $16 - I've paid much more at other bakeries for cakes I could not even eat. I could tell everything was freshly made. Great customer service was very friendly and professional. We'll surely be back for these excellent baked goods at very reasonable prices.

    Rainbow Cookie Cheese Cake

    Good cake,just wish the outer rainbow cookies were moist and not dry. Could be the holiday rush orders affected this as they did have several orders lined up. Will give this business another try soon.

    Cracks in the cake and NOOO raspberry filling

    This post asks what could improve. Everything!!!! We got a custom cake for my husband's 50th and it was horrible, sorry Not SORRY !!!! We spoke to a beautiful girl named Rosanna she took the order we wanted chocolate cake with raspberry filling and chocolate mousse icing.. Well for starters we picked up the cake seen it for a split second before a different girl that day of pick up boxed it. We brought it home and Went out to dinner came home with my family and friends to have the cake we took it out of the box the icing was all cracked on the sides then after singing and cutting into the cake the cake was dry and tasted like boxed cake the icing was butter cream and not mousse and there WAS NOOOOO RASPBERRY FILLING !!!!! which was even more disheartening to top it off it said on the receipt no returns or exchanges what kinda BS is that if something isn't right a business should rectify it. So this is why I'm putting Mark's bake Shop on Blast he ruined my husband's 50th birthday,with a cheap cake

    Custom cake
    Lauren M.

    Ordered a custom cake for a 1st birthday in person. Good customer service, easy process. Cannoli cream marble sheet cake was excellent- fresh and tasty. Would order from here again!

    It's always great service for a very fair price and the goodies are always yummy! Will continue to support them!

    Mark? Should I even call you Mark? I feel like we are hardly on the first name level. I don't see us getting there anytime soon. I came in and tried a cake. The girl at the counter said they are made fresh daily. Mark, the cake was clearly not made that day. The frosting was rock hard and the cake was crumbly, dry. For almost $30, skip it and go to a bakery that bakes their items fresh every day and actually does it.

    During a recent visit to Freehold Mall, I had the intention of going to Ulta for some items I…read moreneeded for a makeup class, so I parked by Macy's and entered the mall through that store's entrance to get to Ulta. As I made my journey to Ulta, I saw this intriguing bakery with bright lights and bright pink colors. I made a mental note to stop by on my way out, which I did. Cee Cee's Cupcake Palace is a black and family owned business in the mall. They seem to specialize in these massive cupcakes with some flavors being named after some of our favorite soul food desserts, such as sweet potato pie and banana pudding. Those are the two flavors I decided to buy. Service was prompt, friendly, and efficient. The cupcakes themselves were just okay to me. I like moist cupcakes and these were a little dry. The toppings and fillings helped add a little moisture to the cake. Nevertheless and overall, it's a pretty solid spot. It's not something I'm in a rush to return to, but would be willing to try again at another time.

    Wow, we were leaving the mall and I looked over and saw this beautiful shop. Cupcakes? Let's take a…read morelook. The artistry is obvious as soon as you see them and I hoped that they tasted as good as they looked. We had the loveliest chat with CeeCee's Mom and she is amazing. Took the cupcakes home and tried them out. OMG, they were delicious!! I was hoping that they weren't too sweet and they were just perfect. You could tell that it's made with quality ingredients. Do not pass this up! Grab a few cupcakes and take them home. You will love them.
