    8" Big Minnie Cake with vanilla cake and chocolate frosting.

    We ordered with Cathy/Minnie's Bake Shop for a corporate birthday as we have many nut allergies in the office, and we were blown away with the quick service, taste of the cake, and how great it looked. They were able to deliver it to us when needed, and the fact that they guaranteed a nut-free cake was huge for us. We got the 8" Big Minnie cake and it was plenty for 15-20 people. We will definitely be ordering again.

    I was at an event recently and they had an order of Minnie's and they were amazing! They were so cute and I loved the way they were decorated. The flavor combinations were also interesting and delicious. Each bite was moist and the icing/cupcake ratio was perfect.

    I ordered the tower cake for a bridal shower. The cake was perfection! Working with Cathy was amazing. I highly recommend!

    What can I say about Minnie's Bake Shop? Cathy is amazing!!! I have ordered several birthday cakes from her over the years & every time they're a hit at all my gatherings. She works with you directly to create a cake you're happy to present to your guest of honor. The Minnie Cakes have a variety of flavors and sizes to choose from, so you're bound to find a crowd pleaser. My personal favorite is the Paris Tea Cake and the great thing is that they're not too sweet! If you're looking for something special, she is happy to accommodate custom flavors. Her response time is top notch & is so personable! She also offers pick up & delivery options. Pricing is transparent & there are several payment options for you choose from. She makes ordering a special cake seamless and provides a cake that gets people asking "Where did you order this from?"

    Forgive the photo quality, but here were the beautiful cakes Cathy provided for our wedding. We were SO thrilled with our choice.

    We had Minnie's cakes at our wedding, and couldn't have been more thrilled with our choice. We wanted to serve our guests - who were coming from the U.K., Egypt, Germany and the West Coast - something sweet and truly delicious, ideally local, and budget friendly. Having tried a host of traditional tiered wedding cakes, which we mostly found to be quite dry and often extraordinarily expensive, we opted for cakes from Minnie's, which we'd had at a friend's birthday and LOVED. (I also thought the square shape of the Big Minnie's was chic and fresh, and the fact that the cakes had 'naked' edges with no icing: they were light, flavourful and not remotely cloying.) We got our florist to provide some edible flowers for the top, and cut one carrot cake and one pistachio cake on the day, with little Minnie cakes in chocolate chip and gluten-free salted caramel. Every single bite of every single cake was delicious, and our guests - all of whom have been to fancier weddings than ours - raved about how good they tasted (a host of them left our wedding with cake to go). Throughout the entire process, Cathy - Minnie's inimitable owner - was a joy to work with. She was responsive to emails, deliveries of both our test cakes and the wedding cakes were exactly on time, she gave truly great advice on flavours, and really looked after us in a way that made our day extra special. We would recommend these cakes, and particularly Cathy, to absolutely anyone without a moment's reservation. It was one of the great choices we made on our wedding day.

    Awesome cake and great service!! We got the Triple chocolate and I love that there is the perfect amount of frosting and not overly sweet! Looks great!!

    There's literally no better cake in this city! Ever since I found Cathy's cakes, I've refused to buy any others. I've tried an assortment, including the Paris Tea Cake, the coconut, the carrot cake, the chocolate, the Meyer lemon, and the funfetti cakes. I've bought her full sized cakes, the Minnie's, and the cake cubes, so I've tried a good variety. Every single one hits the mark. By far, my favorite is the Paris tea cake. Cathy is also absolutely wonderful to work with when you're planning your cakes. She always goes above and beyond to make sure you get what you need. Love her! Further, her cakes are BEAUTIFUL! And they're huge! I've always gotten rave reviews and requests for repeats. Minnie's cakes will always be my go to for cakes

    This is the second cake I've ordered from Minnie's Bake Shop and it was even better than the first! Cathy, the owner, is an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I wanted to incorporate blue into my custom funfetti 6 inch square cake, and Cathy helped me decide on the perfect shades of blue to use and it turned out amazing!! The blue & silver chocolate candies on top and the all-over glitter gave it a fun and celebratory look. The cake was delivered on time and Most importantly, the cakes from Minnie's are always SO DELICIOUS! Perfectly fresh and moist, I can't say enough good things about this business. Highly recommend!!

    banana chip is the best!

    Minnie's Bake Shop produces insanely delicious, decadent, and fresh desserts! You can tell the owner Cathy puts a lot of passion and love into making every single item - just count all the dollops of icing for each of the cakes. Although I've tried all 3 items (classic cakes, whoopie pies, and the cookie sticks), my favorite by far is the classic cake. First let's talk about the icing - this isn't some light cheapo frosting. Maybe it's because I put it in the fridge for a while, but the frosting here is heavy and hearty yet incredibly fresh so you know it's made from premium ingredients. For the cake itself, I've had the strawberry and the banana ones, and both were super dense and moist. This isn't your typical cake from a random bakery or grocery store where it's spongy and light - this is some flavor packed and decadent cake, think the texture of a flourless chocolate torte. None of the treats are super sweet either. They're just the right level of sweetness balanced with the flavor intended. My favorite by far was the banana chip one. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a treat outside of the traditional cupcake or cookies. The owner Cathy is also super friendly and accommodating!

    Had a cake delivered to my daughter's work in NYC from the west coast for her birthday. Ordering via email was so easy. The cake arrived on time and everyone at her work thought it was absolutely delicious. She said it arrived looking beautiful and festive with white chocolate shavings and colored sprinkles but they all ate it so quickly this was the only picture that I got.

    When I received the cake I was floored, the cake was stunning (Cathy added gold dust which made the cake really pop).

    This used to be my favorite Italian bakery. I haven't been to this bakery in years like ten years…read moresince I was a teenager. Today I decided to make a special trip to go here to grab a few goodies. I forgot how small the place was and how low the ceilings were. That wasn't an issue though. The place was nice and cakes were stacked neatly. What was surprising to me is that they don't have any cookies laid in the front display. It's all placed in the back almost hidden. I was deeply disappointed with their cookie selection. It was deeply surprising that they don't sell the butter cookies that had jam in the middle and dipped with chocolate on one side with sprinkles. I did ask the clerk and even showed him a pic of what I was looking for and he said they never sold them. They only had the linzer cookies and they didn't look so good. They also did not have the lobster tail. They did have the sfogliatelle which they also called a lobster tail. I thought they were not the same? Some bakeries sell both and they are definitely not the same. I did end up buying one of their sfogliatelle with cream and some rugelachs. The sfogliatelle was good but the rugelachs tasted slightly underbaked. It did taste fresh though unlike many I've had in other bakeries. However, for $28 per pound, I wouldn't get it again. For those not having lobster tail and not having the Italian cookies, I will have to give Veniero's a low rating. I never thought an Italian bakery would not carry staples. Very disappointed. I need to find another Italian bakery now.

    Stopped by Daily Provisions to order breakfast on a Wednesday morning. There's seating indoors…read more(with low back stools) and seating out front (about four tables). I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

    I ordered doordash so didn't experience the place itself, but I tried the new salmon niçoise salad…read moreand I really enjoyed it. It was a very decent amount of fish and a very hearty bowl because of the other toppings. The anchovy dressing was great to top it off.

    What a delightful surprise! After working late and attending an event after work, one of my…read morecoworkers suggested we stop here because they loved their cookies. I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!

I will say that I didn't think I would like this cookie at all since usually I like thinner crunchier cookies. But holy cow!! I was blown away by the crispy edges and the interior wasn't too soft gooey either. The chocolate and walnuts added to the cookie enhanced the flavor even more! For such a big cookie the middle was cooked perfectly. Very chunky and sizable cookie too so I ate it throughout the day rather than one sitting!!
