    a wedding cake decorated with roses
    Kylie H.

    Pastry Fusions was who or venue contracts with for their wedding cakes. The owner was nice, and was able to accommodate cheesecake without additional fees. We had a good experience with him overall except when it came to the designs of the cake. The first is the picture of what we wanted, the second is what was delivered. Our cake looks like it was at a crime scene.. we had hoped for a richer raspberry sauce that was to be delicately drizzled on one side, and were very confused by the gram cracker dusting on the top of each level. I wasn't expecting exact, but something in the realm of similar would have been nice. Luckily our wedding planner was great at arranged the flowers. We also couldn't get the knife into the bottom level of the cake and had to cut a small rectangle during that cake cutting. At least the cake tasted really good. But presentation was extremely lacking.

    Been back to Pastry Fusions a few more times -- everything I've tried there is delicious & high-quality. Yay, I'm a fan !

    My wedding cake at Saybrook Point Inn.
    Lesley M.

    Pastry Fusions was one of the three cake vendors who worked with Saybrook Point Inn (SPI), the place where I had my wedding ceremony and reception. A cake was included in my wedding package at SPI. With my hardcore addiction to chocolate, my wedding coordinator at SPI recommended that I try the Chocolate Devastation cake at Pastry Fusions. So my two MOHs and I took a drive down to North Branford on a Saturday afternoon to meet with Frank, the owner, for the tasting. He was such a nice guy who poured his heart into his business and let us sample as many different flavors as we wanted. Each sample had its own artful presentation. After many chocolate flavored cakes, we decided on the cappuccino mousse cake; three tiers of chocolate cake, layered with cappuccino mousse and cinnamon whipped cream, then frosted with chocolate butter cream. It was DIVINE! For the top layer, which I will have on November 8, 2015, it was the chocolate devastation flavor. As an added bonus, Frank provided the white roses on top of my cake. This act of kindness gave me one less thing to coordinate with my florist. Before we left, we just had to get those heavenly Maple Bacon Donuts! There was a line for the donuts! All I can say is yum yum yum!

    Wedding Cake

    We used Pastry Fusions for our 7/4/20 wedding! They were so friendly and accommodating! Due to COVID we had to switch our venue to half way across the state and they still delivered. When discussing the options for the design of the cake, they were very helpful! The cake came out better than even imagined! I am so grateful that when we changed our venue we stuck with this bakery! I couldn't ask for a better business to deal with!

    When you first walk in, Pastry Fusions may seem unremarkable. However, both the food and the people who work there are lovely. While you may be tempted to stick to the pastries (especially given a name like Pastry Fusions), be sure to check out the egg sandwiches. They are hearty and homemade - they'll cook your eggs to order and the buns are killer! Definitely a great place to stop for a quick breakfast.

    ok i admit this is one of those places i had driven by so many times and said to myself that it didnt look like much so i shouldnt stop... well, now i regret that because finally i had the time to turn into this strip mall and see what kind of pastry they were fusioning here. DONUTS. that is all i can say. I have partaken in many donuts all around the world, and these donuts are right up there with the best. i regret not having the will power to have taken a picture, but i will be back and will try my best to shoot a pic before the donuts are gone. on top of the great donuts they also had a large case of italian cookies, cupcakes, brownies, pies, etc etc .. its a full on bakery with amazing donuts run by a friendly guy.

    White sponge cake with buttercream frosting on the outside and raspberry mousse on the inside. Amazing!

The women checking me out said they don't do trays but could do an assortment of pastries split amongst 2 boxes, which was perfectly fine with me as I was going to plate them. I picked them up and should have checked the boxes before leaving because I was given large pastry in size rather than quantity. In total I had about 8 pastries and wasn't able to serve them as a dessert because I didn't have enough. I wasn't happy for the money I spent but decided to chalk it up as a miscommunication and give Cheri's one more try for Easter. As my guests were eating we realized that the chocolate cream pie and all of the pastries filled with the chocolate cream tasted off and realized it was spoiled. Needless to say I'm going to try another bakery for my future needs instead of literally throwing my money away.

    Milani Italian Bakery & Café is an Italian Pastry Bakery that opened in Northford, Connecticut in…read more2003. It was founded by husband and wife Italian immigrants Emilio and Marina Milani. After 25 years in the bakery business in the Italian village of Moricone (outside of Rome), the Milanis decided to leave their homeland and share their culinary Italian culture in the United States. After arriving in 1993, the couple opened a gourmet coffee shop named 'Coffee Island Cafe' where they specialized in sandwiches, panini, and other baked goods. 10 years later, they opened their own Italian bakery in the center of Northford. Emilio comes from a long line of classical Italian bakers and credits his father Tullio for teaching him the craft. The Milanis' son, also named Tullio, works alongside them at the bakery as well. Some of the specialties at this 'pasticceria' include cakes, pies, cannoli, sfogliatelle, lobster tails, bughinotti, almond tarts, cream puffs, éclairs, zeppole, various Italian cookies, panettone, hot cross buns, stuffed breads, Italian bread, gelato, and Italian coffee. My family and I recently stopped in at Milani's to get some delicious pastries. Although we've lived nearby for years, we had only just heard of them and wanted to give them a try. We were greeted by Marina when we walked in. She was very friendly and we chatted for a while. We decided to get a box of delicious Florentine cookies, as well as a large Sprinkle cookie for our older son. I also ordered their Chocolate Lemon Pie, which is my favorite kind of pie in the world! Although I've tried several Chocolate Lemon Pies from various area bakeries over the years, we thought that Milani's take on it was one of the better ones! Marina also insisted that we sample some of their cannoli before we left. They were delicious! We are lucky to have some excellent Italian bakeries in the Greater New Haven area, and Milani's is no exception!
