    Service was fast, amazing and the sweets were delicious! I had a variety of cupcakes, some cake slices and croissants. I'm more than happy with this establishment. I've used them for regular purchases and for Too Good to go. Each time they're equally fresh and tasty treats. Almond croissant was so good and the red velvet cake was as well. There was a PB&J cupcake that was so unique and delicious. I love it here and will continue to come back.

    I asked when they made the berry napoleon, and they said the morning, so I got a slice. It was so crispy and good! I put in the fridge for a couple of hours after taking a few bites and noticed the crispiness got dampened even during that short time so I'd recommend eating as soon as you purchase. I also got the chocolate layer cake - it doesn't have a deep chocolate taste but not bad. I got a cheesecake slice too, and it's decent if you like lighter cheesecake but I prefer richer slices. Each was about $8 a slice.

    First off, I guess welcome to Broadway! I came into this place last week a little hopeful that I would have a new dessert place but Boy was I wrong. I literally walked in and felt like I was in the twilight zone, the front display facing the street should have warned me. This place is a dead ringer for a Martha's Bakery 2. I mean everything about it screamed Martha's bakery. The setup, the desserts, the menu, the writing of the menu ... it made me sad! Hopefully since they're still new they can bring their own take on what a bakery should be like and revamp. I bought the flan for $9 to try them out. It was poorly packaged, the covering was plastic wrap and the caramel sauce cake out and made everything in the bag so sticky. It did have a good flavor though but for $9 the slice should have been bigger. I may or may not come back to this place. I guess we will see in the next couple of months since my eyebrow lady is around the corner.

    Not really a fan of this bakery. While they have the standard cakes and desserts, the display cabinets made them look rather dull and a little unappetizing. Nevertheless, I thought I would give them a try with some chocolate cake and coffee. I was now definately not impressed. The bakery, which a former employee launched (of another well-known Astoria cafe and bakery) was not nearly as good as Martha's and had much less to offer except late-night desserts which I gess was a plus in a way With so many new and excellent bakeries opening in Astoria, especially along the Broadway stretch down to the East River, it is hard to see why many would come here except for a late-night bite. As for my cake, well, it was unmemorable, and I would give them a miss.

    Carrot cake good, but the frosting wasn't good!

    I came here with my sister and husband for some dessert and coffee after dinner. I wish I didn't! We had the banana pudding which tasting nothing like pudding! It was TERRIBLE! The next worst dessert was the banana bread pudding. The bananas were only on top and not through it. The texture was more like a flan without the caramel flavor. The chocolate cake was mediocre not bad, but not great either. The carrot cake was the best out of all 4 of the desserts. The carrot cake itself was very good and it had delicious raisins in the cake. The frosting on top wasn't good, and tasted like a bland cream frosting. It had no cream cheese flavor at all. The coffee was even terrible at this place! I can't see this bakery lasting long in Astoria with all the good dessert shops!

    3.5 stars. This review is solely for their gelato. I've started noticing that there seems to be a lot of bakeries along Broadway between 29th and 35th Streets (Jhoanes, Omonia, Parisi, French Workshop just to name a few). And a new one just opened last weekend, Sherlyn's. Rumor has it that the owner was former head pastry chef of Martha's. I went on opening day and it was packed but the staff managed the lines well. The space isn't large but there is a small dinning area. The pastries all looked good but there was a lot to choose from. Prices are on the higher end, but that seems to be par for the course in NYC these days. Given the intense heat wave, I went straight for their gelato. They had about six flavors available, and I opted for Pistachio and Hazelnut ($7 for two scoops). The gelato was fine and hit the spot on that scorching day. It didn't have the intense nutty flavor that I was looking for but otherwise a solid satisfying choice. I'm looking forward to going back on a less hectic day to explore their full pastry lineup!

    Sherlyn's Bakery never disappoints! We ordered an assortment of mini cupcakes for my girlfriend's birthday - everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was excellent; Sherlyn had everything ready on time and even included a few extra minis, which was such a sweet touch. Everyone at the party raved about them! This was my third time ordering from Sherlyn's (the first two were for family events), and each time has been consistently amazing. It's so rare to find a local bakery with great products, friendly service, and true pride in what they do. Couldn't recommend Sherlyn's more - a neighborhood favorite!

    Berry Napoleon - amazing!
    Kaitlin M.

    Walked in on a cold day and enjoyed a hot coffee and an amazing slice of Berry Napoleon. Sherlyn's is a family business and I felt right at home from the first bite! I could eat berry napoleon every time but I heard the tres leches options are also very popular and I'll have to try that next time.

It was delivered to me in midtown exactly as instructed but I then had to carry it to Westchester by train. I was very nervous but got it there still looking beautiful.

I had a picture in my head of how I wanted the day to go and this cake absolutely helped fulfill it!

I was initially lured in by the good Yelp reviews. I liked that I could do everything online, I had a particular vision for what I wanted my birthday cake to look like and they communicated with me via email that could make my vision come true. I had a birthday celebration at a restaurant, which I asked The Evercake to have delivered directly to the restaurant. The delivery was smooth and the restaurant had the cake before I even got there. The cake was very cute and did look like what I had pictured. But...what I majorly disliked was the actual taste of the cake and being misled about what the contents of the cake would be. I selected the strawberry shortcake option for my cake and what I got was not what I thought it would be. I think it's quite normal for a strawberry shortcake to have like...real strawberries in between the layers. My cake didn't really have that, and if it did it was hidden in all the strawberry jam that there instead. I was not a fan of the cake texture too and the cream outside of the cake. Overall I felt so sad that I was feeding this to my friends and I told them that they didn't have to finish it because I wasn't going to either. So embarrassing :( Would you believe that this flop of a cake was nearly $200? And that's after the 10% coupon. I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 because it wasn't completely bad, but the cake not tasting good was the biggest thing for me. I would have preferred it the other way around at least, like if the service was so bad but the cake tasted amazing, but unfortunately that was not the case for me. After digging through the reviews some more, I found that this happened to another customer as well. I wish I had seen their review before ordering a "strawberry" shortcake from here lol dang

I did grab a peach Iced Fresher drink and an earl gray cookie just because! So this review is for that. The Earl Gray Cookie was a buttery short bread cookie. You can really taste it...which I enjoyed in 30 seconds flat! The peach fresher drink was light and semi sweet. Light carbonation and indeed refreshing. Perfect on this summer evening. Lychee Apricot, Taro Black Sesame, Key Lime Tarts and the most adorable bunny shaped cheesecakes and many more mini cakes on display. I even spotted an ube and Pandan mini cake as well, called the Purple Cake. All of the flavors are definitely desserts I would try but next time! I shall return. It's also conveniently close to the north side exit of the 7 train at Queensboro Plaza.
