    Little Italy days
    Ken L.

    Honestly a great bakery in Bloomfield! The staff is always very nice and their tiramisu is stellar!! It's always the bite I look forward to at Little Italy Days. I think they have decent cream puffs too. They carry so many great desserts and even donuts. It's a great spot to get all your sweets. I love their new logo. The store is pretty big and I'm always happy when I come inside and see their lovely display of baked goods.

    Awesome cake!

    My family LOVES Paddy Cake! We always get their cakes and cupcakes for special occasions and they never disappoint. Everything is very reasonably priced. I just stopped in for Memorial Day weekend and got a single layer chocolate cake for only $6.99. A dozen cookies was about the same price, depending on if you get iced cookies or more expensive ones. Can we talk about the apple fritter for a minute? I am not one to order a donut for a breakfast treat... I more so go for a scone or something to dip in coffee. I have heard about apple fritters before, but never actually had one. WOW. Paddy Cake's apple fritter is amazing! It is gooey and filled with apples and cinnamon and drenched in a glaze. I have learned that they sell out quick - so get there early! If you live in Bloomfield you can count on running into someone you know at Paddy Cake.

    For national donut day, we were in Bloomfield and stopped in. It has been a couple of years since we were here. They had a great selection of donuts and numerous other baked goods. The service was friendly and patient. Most importantly, the prices were more than reasonable. The donuts we got were fresh and tasty.

    Paddy Cake Bakery in Bloomfield has always been my go-to when I'm visiting family in Pittsburgh. This popular bakery has a wide variety of treats to choose from, all of which look better than the rest! So often, when you're a Pittsburgh native, monumental moments are marked with a cake from Paddy Cake. When I graduated from Central Catholic High School, we celebrated with a huge sheet cake from Paddy Cake Bakery. They're always moist and the frosting is perfectly light and sweet. The cake artists have definitely amped up their game in the past years from plain flowers and balloons to full blown Star Wars characters like Chewbacca and Grogu (aka Baby Yoda.) The true sleeper star at Paddy Cake Bakery that any local will rave about... the donuts. I recently stopped by to pick up a post dentist-visit treat (yes... I love going to this bakery after getting my teeth cleaned as it's only a few blocks from my dentist's office.) A long long time ago, as in when I was in high school, Paddy Cake only offered their delicious dones on Friday mornings. If you slept in, you weren't getting them. Luckily for me I would stop in on the way to school to snag one, usually when they were still warm. While their donut selection has become a staple menu item and grown considerably from the very few types of offerings, I always stay true to the glazed donuts. It's like and airy. The dough is sweet and light with the glaze adding the perfect kick of sugar. Paddy Cake Bakery definitely holds its own against places that specialize in donuts.

    There was a strange smell in the bakery when I entered that was not so appeasing. I picked up a tiramisu (didn't notice it until someone called out), a chocolate eclair, a cream puff and a small cannoli. They all tasted good, with the tiramisu being exceptional! The prices are reasonable too. I would recommend to check this out.

    Another Halloween cake

    Back for a visit in the Burg and decided to take bus 54, a nice leisurely bus if you want Strip, Lawrenceville. Bloomfield or Oakland. We got off near Paddycake in Bloomfield and with fond memories of my childhood, popped in. What a wide selection of stuff. Cakes, half cakes, cookies, doughnuts, fancy desserts, danish... they have it. We didnt need anything but just took in the ambiance and the smells and ended up with two bear claws which were large and stuffed with nuts. I do wish prices were posted. I might have bought more but felt too embarrassed to repeatedly ask "how much is this, how much is that" My idea of $ is about 15% less at least for my bear claws. The bear claws had that old time bakery taste that I remember from my youth. Hard to describe the sweet dough but my mouth recognized it. Do not buy too much in advance because this stuff is meant to be eaten and like all fresh things goes stale quicker than store bought stuff. Undoubtedly you fill find stuff here that will satisfy your sweet tooth with that old Pittsburgh friendliness. I see that I was so distracted after coming in that I forgot to take pics of all the cases filled with yummy choices. Sorry.

    Snacks? Carrot cake & Almond torte! I also purchased pecan rolls but forgot to take a picture of it! I got the carrot cake for Tone but he liked Moio's better. The almond torte was okay. Nothing to go back for! ‍ The pecan rolls weren't what I remembered them to be. They were dry & not worth the calories! I only took a few bites. The first was of the outer layer but I gave it another chance thinking... hey, it's just because it's the outer layer. But, the inside wasn't good either. It didn't seem fresh! This was the only place that I would buy this from. I gave them a chance even after they made the news about an employee making the pecan rolls while licking her fingers. They fired her. ‍ Bon appétit!!

    Pastries are fine - not great but not bad. The staff is horrendous. They're abrasive, rude, impatient, and just plain grumpy.
