And I bake all the time, something extremely hazardous to my diet haha ...but thats also why I'm extremely critical of baked goods. Having tried several bakeries in The Netherlands I've come to the conclusion that it's extremely rare to find good cupcakes. They are either stale or the icing isn't right or just plain ol' BLAH! But that wasn't the case at VAN NESS I've been trying to eat their cupcakes for a while now. They get sold out rather quickly so one has to go sometime before 3-4pm if you want to have all the flavors. So we walked into this tiny store full of excitement and tried four different flavors of cupcakes (chocolate lava, red velvet, pistachio and chocolate vanilla) and boy o' boy was I pleasantly surprised, they were EPICALLY delicious. They were moist and full of flavor and honestly the best I've had in this country for sure! I totally understand why they are sold out before the store closes and I was so impressed to taste every flavor and their icing was divine. So yes go there, go there tomorrow! It's amazing I can't wait to try out all the flavors! Eeeeeeeee *happydance* Ps: get a free cupcake if you check in with YELP!

This time we ordered the famous red velvet cake, New York cheese cake, lemon meringue cake and a full chocolate cupcakes (forgot the exact name). It was all so yummy and filling. You can easily share a red velvet cake with a friend. The staff is friendly. It is a nice place to sit. However it can be cold. Everytime when the door opens the cold comes in. It would be nice to have a curtain in front of the door so the cold won't come in. But overall we had a good experience at Drie Graefjes. When you're in the neighbourhood you should definitely stop bu and have cake. You can't reserve so come early, especially on a Saturday.

I've lived in the Netherlands for 2 years so I'm very accustomed to the "it's the customer's fault" attitude but these are very clearly overbaked, almost burnt. I don't often complain or ask for a refund but I can't even eat the cookies or finish the cake. The juice however was very good.

So delicious, fresh, and definitely popular since they didn't have it on days when I stopped in after 12pm. The cookies were also amazing. Tried a bunch of flavors, and every one was on point. The waffle, however, was the best thing I've eaten in Amsterdam all week. Had to go with the chocolate covered version, and it did not disappoint. The waffle was fresh, covered in powered sugar first and then amazing, rich chocolate that melted in your mouth/ hands and the combination was just divine. I will definitely be back, just for this, but next time after a long jog.

While researching from the United States custom birthday cake pastry shops in The Hague I found Perfect Pastry. I sent to Perfect Pastry an email inquiring about the possibility of making a custom birthday cake with a specific layered interior filling, and a custom inscription on the top of the cake, and a card. Nermina responded the very next day with detailed information and a price. Even with a nine hour time difference Nermina was extremely responsive, and detail-oriented. I was also able to request a specific two hour delivery window. The cake arrived at my in-laws' apartment exactly on time. The cake was visually beautiful, and the filling was exactly as I had requested. My wife and her family reported that it was one of the most delicious birthday cakes they had ever enjoyed! The cake was indeed perfect, and so was the experience in terms of inquiring, ordering and executing. Thanks to Nermina and Perfect Pastry for making an international order easy, successful and delicious! I highly recommend Perfect Pastry!
