Ordered some items for a party. I emailed in advance for pricing and how far in advance I needed to place the order. Upon arrival there were additional charges for plating cookies or simply putting the items on a tray that was not mentioned and after pointing out they kindly waived the fee for using a tray. I wanted to pay in advance that seemed to be a problem because they charge by the pound when i was given a physical fee over email. Conversation felt tense and like I was a burden but I had no choice with the event being so close. Upon picking up the items my family picked up the baked goods and told me the employees were rude and once again felt like a burden and made sure to tell us plating will be $7 for next time. which there will not be next time. Happy to give my $200 to another bakery with higher quality product and a happier demeanor. Rainbow cookies are literately cake not the traditional cookies and cannolis have no chocolate chips in them. Feedback was it was okay but not great. Most guests told me since changing ownership, quality had diminished. For $200 i thought they would be nicer and happy for the business but based on quality and how we were treated, we won't be back. read more

Nino's Pastry Shoppe - Blueberry Danish - Bakeries Near Me - Trenton, New Jersey

No frills, authentic Italian pastries. Many kinds of Danish. Cannoli. Lobster tails. And sfogliatelle above the glass case on the left. (Crissy 'orders' that, napoleons and cannoli for the gang, then drops it on the pool table, to which Paulie protectively grabs the box, 'Heyyy, the sfogliatelle!, what's wrong with you.') Delicious. read more

Sad to see the quality go down after new ownership. The cakes are not decorated how they used to be. Instead of the beautiful buttercream flowers that were their staple on every cake...is now basic icing. Sprinkles are hardly an equal substitute for the always beautiful rosettes we used to get. Clearly cutting back on ingredients. The rebrand is also very commercial now and is lacking the small bakery feel. For the most part the pastries taste the same although sometimes I feel as if something is missing. Been going here since I was born so it's unfortunate! They also spelled the name wrong on the cake despite spelling it out twice to them. read more

We ordered a strawberry cheesecake for my son's birthday and it said "Happy 17 th birthday Noah". And we got this messy cake with delicious contents. We love Ninos pastries, almond cookies, chocolate ganache cakes, cannolis, etc but presentation counts too. read more

Nino's Pastry Shoppe - Strawberry cheesecake from Ninos pastry in Hamilton NJ - Bakeries Near Me - Trenton, New Jersey

See all

Pastries are delicious! Never had one I didn't like! They are always fresh! Never day old!

Probably the worst chocolate chip cookie I've ever had in my life. I took one bite and threw it out. A shame I spent $4 on it. They definitely need to go back to the drawing board with that recipe. YUCK! read more

Their cakes are dry and crunbly. Ordered a custom cake and it tasted horrible. Almost as if they just make a bunch of cakes and mix and match when an order comes in, rather than making it fresh for that order. They also get bad reviews deleted. So i wouldn't trust them at all. read more

BY FAR the most outstanding bakery I have been to. Very consistent through the years. Picked up a nut danish ring yesterday, HOLY MOLY it was out of this world, couldn't stop eating it. Highly recommend trying that danish ring when you get the chance. I hope they NEVER close read more

I finally tried this business and after 2 desserts can say I'm a fan. It's a small shop with only sweet items. I noticed various cookies and rugula, ready to fill cannoli , whole cakes and pies and slices of certain offerings. I bought the ricotta cheesecake and a chocolate truffle, both $4 each. The cheesecake was excellent, lighter filling than a typical one with a nice creamy texture and slight vanilla flavor, the crust was almost shortbread like, very good too. The chocolate truffle was coated in dark and the inside was moist and flavorful cake and a chocolate mousse cream. I would get both again. And the cost seemed reasonable, both were big enough to share. My one negative impression was that there was a very nice looking cherry pie sitting by the cash register uncovered. I'm not sure the reasoning behind this placement, and I wonder if it was an isolated event. I'll definitely come here again when quality desserts are needed. read more

Nino's Pastry Shoppe - Ricotta cheesecake and chocolate truffle( both very good) - Bakeries Near Me - Trenton, New Jersey

We ordered a cake to celebrate an event at work ... this cake was so fantastic that I needed to put this review ... They have a good list to make your choices on what kind of cake you want The ingredients were fresh and delicious- it got so many compliments once we cut the cake read more

if i could give this place a zero i'd go lower !!! cake falls apart and is half raw !! the cake to filling ratio is pathetic !one filling in a birthday cake unless a sheet cake , fill in by are like glue !! whipped cream is airy and tastes like shaving cream with a slight bitch vanilla !! i don't think they have any bakers seems like just a like a learning culinary school !!! don't waste your money better off at shoprite at least the taste is way better ! read more

The cakes are not only beautiful but also delicious. Guests are always amazed at how beautiful they are.

Delicious ricotta cheesecake for Christmas dinner. It cost $30 but worth every penny.

Wonderful bakery! We first tried their cheesecake when someone brought one to dinner st our house. The best. Very pricey but worth it. They also have donuts stuffed with cream cheese icing (like on carrot cake) Yum! Go early for these...they run out! read more

This pastry shoppe is one of my favorites! My favorite item in the store is the walnut Cinnabon! I have recommended this perfect brunch item to several of my friends! read more

I bought a birthday cake at Nino's Pastry Shoppe and it crumbled and fell apart when we tried to cut it. The cake fell apart as we tried to eat it. I am not sure why it would be like this, but I have never seen a birthday cake fall apart and crumble into pieces. I was very disappointed. read more

I had never been to this bakery before since just moving into the area (now 8 years ago). A friend recommended them to me. I went there with a napkin with the theme for my son's first birthday. They were able to duplicate the clown on the napkin, on the cake. I was truly AMAZED when I saw the cake for the first time. It was like the artist who created the design for the napkin came and made the cake. The colors, the exact clown, everything was perfect!!!!! Amazing artist they have there. Oh, and the cake was DELICIOUS! It had rave reviews from everyone at the party...all asking "Where did you get his cake? It's so good!" They are famous for their coffee rings. (I think that's what they're called.) There were a few people ordering them while I was there; however I have heard about their rings since. Haven't had one yet, but I should! :-) Let look divine! read more

Nino's Pastry Shoppe - Birthday cake from Nino's with the clown duplicated from a napkin. - Bakeries Near Me - Trenton, New Jersey

Solid little bakery. Cookies were a bit pricey. I had chocolate eclairs (excellent), Linzer Cookie (very good), and Chocolate Iced Big Valentines Cookie (good). Will return to try more stuff! read more

BEST CANNOLI THIS SIDE OF PALERMO! The highlights here are the pignoli (my Italian Aunt's favorite), almond paste cookies, butter cookies and all the Italian pastries. The cannoli are as close to those I had in Palermo as I've had anywhere in the USA (and I always try cannoli wherever I go)!! read more

I bought pastries and served them at night to company and was embarrassed. The custard cream was dry and pulled away from the pastry , the chocolate chip cheesecake was sour and I can go on about the others. They were not fresh and were left overs from the weekend. This is the second time, I thought I give it another try since it has been awhile, but this is the last time. read more

So good! Placed an order by phone a few weeks ago for my boyfriend's birthday cake. Never tried this bakery before that and I wish I did! I ordered their truffle cake and it was absolutely delicious! Picked it up in the morning and the bakery smelled so good that I had to try their walnut danish. It was amazing. Staff was very friendly and inviting as well! Highly recommend and I will be going back read more

Terrible experience at Nino's unfortunately. Bakery was unwilling to work for custom cake order. Even I was ready to chose from the collection they have but no response. When I went in person to place an order, I was told to email details of the cake. I did that however the bakery was very unprofessional and just said that they can't do it. Shame that their service has gone down to this level. read more

Great, dependable bakery. In terms of their pastry, the cannolis are excellent, as are their classic Italian cookies, Napoleons, pies, linzer tarts, and cheese danish. Correction: the cheese danish isn't excellent, it is TO. DIE. FOR. They also do custom cakes, which are tasty and reasonably priced. I did take off a star because of a few small things (that all add up). First, they're killing me with the coffee! I'd stop here every single morning if they had a better choice of beans! Second, would like to see more availability on Sundays. A few times I've wanted to stop on the way to Sunday dinner for some cannolis and they were closed. Such a bummer. Finally, the counter staff (usually younger girls) could be a little friendlier. Sometimes I get the feeling I'm annoying them when I have a question that goes beyond pointing at something in the case. Credit cards only on orders $10 and over. read more

This place is absolutely amazing and quite charming. Actually, I'm going to start this review by giving kudos to the young ladies that work there. I don't know where the owner finds these young ladies but they are as sweet as the delicious pie that they serve. Everyone of them makes it a complete pleasure to go there and engage with them and listen to their suggestions based on your preferences. However, this is truly a next level bakery because the goods are delicious and you can taste the pride that the bakers have when producing these outstanding products. KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK!!! LOVE IT! read more

My family has been ordering special occasion cakes from Nino's for as long as I can remember. Always always always a delight. Some of our favorites is any cake with the cannoli filling and the Napoleon style cake. They are always perfectly decorated and made to our exact specifications. I don't often go in and order anything from the display case as I don't find everything appealing. The exception would be the cookies, which are delicious. Also, the young girls working behind the counter don't have much product knowledge and can be a bit attitudey. I was once in there when another customer was asking about the St. Joseph pastry. The counter girl could not answer one question and was clearly annoyed that she was being bothered. I found myself explaining it to both of them. All this aside, the cakes are delightful and the family who runs this bakery does a really great job in the back. I have had the pleasure of speaking with the owner and his daughter about cakes I was ordering and they were so kind and helpful. For your next family birthday, give Nino's a call and try for yourself. They don't disappoint. read more

Small little italian pastry shop located conveniently near wawa. Minus one star only for their hours. I think they close at 7 and thats standard for a bakery ( i know) but still. Service with a slight smile-- i wasnt floored , but didnt matter. I got their chocolate eclair with custard filling.. and it was just what i was looking for! Not overly sweet, the donut part of it was buttery, crusty goodness! The custard tasted fresh and chocolate icing was royal but not overbearing. I loved it and could probably eat 5 in one sitting! I also had a piece of their chocolate chip cookie- it was a little too sweet for me ( and im a sweet tooth).. for some odd reason it tasted less fresh than paneras chocolate chipper ( which is strange to me since i could smell all the baking in the store).. but maybe i just got an overly tough cookie. I will have to stop by again to re-test ;) I got an apple danish, cannoli pastry and a chocolate chip cookie ( 1.50/huge panera sized cookie) for the family. They absolutely loved everything. We are still waiting to tap into the cannoli pastry, so ill update with that later. I sawa yummy looking cakes that were a bit on the pricy side ( 22$ for a cake that maybe feeds 4-5 people?) Overall, a bit pricy, credit cards over 10$ .. but they accept all credit cards ( u know, incase i decide to whip out my centurion american express) . Will return to try more goodies :) read more

I've never had anything here that wasn't great. They have a nice variety of cookies, Italian and otherwise, including cute linzer hearts and such. Their cakes have delicious frosting, and my family usually gets them for birthdays and such. That said, I think the star of the show here is the cheese danish. Theirs are just miles beyond any danish I've ever had anywhere else in my life, and seriously to die for. You need to get there early but it's so worth it. read more

This was my first time at Ninos. I never realized it was even there until I did a yelp search for pastries. It is a very straightforward bakery with no seating area. Just go and pick out what you want and take it to go. It would be nice if they served some Italian coffees or espresso to go with the pastries. You can definitely tell everything is homemade. I got a piece of crumb cake and when I say "piece" it was a huge chunk of the cake. My husband got the linzer tart and he loved it. There was a table for wedding consultations too. read more

THE BEST RAINBOW COOKIES I'VE EVER TASTED..... and I've tasted a lot of rainbow cookies in my life. These are in a class of their own. also tasted a rugalach that was beyond belief..........I NEVER thought I'd find a bakery this good so close to me! read more

AMAZING canolli. I went late in the day, so the selection wasn't stellar, but the cookies I ended up with were really good and fresh, but unremarkable in comparison to the canolli. would've given 5 stars but they're pretty expensive! credit cards only for orders over $10. read more

Unfortunately we weren't happy with the engagement cake we ordered from Nino's. Our cake had some mistakes - we specified in our order that we wanted chocolate buttercream filling and we received chocolate mousse instead, the cake writing on the top also misspelled my fiancé's name, and overall the cake was dry and lacked flavor. This made it difficult to cut into sliced pieces since it crumbled easily. We've come here in the past for standard birthday cakes which were fine but to mess up a $60 customized cake for an important event isn't good business practice. read more

This is the second year in a row that I purchased my sons birthday cake from here. Dana and the staff here are incredibly sweet and their cakes are soooo delicious. I would definitely recommend Nino's Pastry Shoppe and I will definitely be coming back next year. read more

I needed a local bakery to buy cupcakes for a last minute school surprise. A friend recommended I try Nino's and I'm so glad I did! It's a quiet and simple shop in a strip mall, but as I approached the door, my nose started dancing from the aroma of goodies. My eyes and stomach were getting excited with the various items I saw including the chocolate covered cheesecake, red velvet cake, apple danish, and so much more. I wanted 25 cupcakes, but they only had 17 on display. The lady said, "No worries, I'll make some right now for you." I took a short walk to Wawa and came back to my completed order. I also bought cheesecake for me and a fresh cannoli for my mom. We were both very happy with our treats. I'll certainly go back! read more

Ninos bakery did my wedding cake for me. They were amazing to work with. On my stressful list of wedding to-dos Nino's helped me to worry about one less thing. They communicated with me over e-mail and completely understood my vision. I sent them photos and they baked and decorated the exact cake that I wanted. We did half cannoli and half strawberry filling, we loved it! read more

This place my wife's and my guilty pleasure. This place has the best cheesecake you will ever have. Period. We have routinely had their various cake squares. From Black forest cake to carrot cake to red velvet cake, they are always moist and delicious. Highly recommended. No matter the occasion. read more

Bought 2 things from them for the first time, tiramisu and some custard roll (forget the name of it). The custard roll was great. Great combination of texture and flavor balance. The tiramisu was horrible. It was just white whipped cream and a bit of coffee flavor. Usually it's made with mascarpone cheese that makes the cream denser but this was anything but. Their decorated cakes looked appealing. read more

DEBIT CARD to be used has to have a $10 limit. Some pastries are delicious but over priced because they're not all that great. I was willing to try several to see how good they were, I have tasted better. I grew up making Italian pastries, this was ok. read more
