It's a bit pricey (typically $65 a tray) but it's very worth it because you can either eat it over the course of 3 days or freeze for longer, and it's absolutely delicious if you're a fan of shortbread. I was waiting for there to be more unique gluten free versions before I bought it for someone who can't have gluten. This holiday season satisfied that longing when I got an email about their new holiday flavors, 4 of which come gluten free using King Arthur flour. Bought the pumpkin pie one, and I'm not sure how they managed to do it, but it's incredible. There's no discernible difference from their regular shortbreads. Super rich and buttery and the pumpkin pie topping was smooth and flavorful. Your credit card bill will be sad but your mouth won't

I love the new spoons they're so cute, and their take out bags have really great quality and durability - you can keep reusing it, it doesn't wear out. It can get busy during the weekends which is to be expected so would def advise being patient and not rushing the experience - enjoy it! Also their mango desserts are great but my favorite item from them is the creme brûlée crepe cake - immaculate

Overall: 4 stars…read more Dessert place that is a welcome addition to Jersey City given the otherwise minimal set of Asian options. Obviously by name, this joint focuses on the mango served, but the mango served here is actually not a standout part of the dessert shop. I like the abundance of Cantonese desserts, but I think the quality clearly tastes in line with a chain in which I am happy to have as an option rather than one that really makes me eager to revisit weekly. Mango Smoothie - It's a refreshing mango smoothie where you can clearly tell the primary flavor is natural mango flavor; however, the mango used could benefit from being more ripe as the drink is not sweet enough; further, the mango chunks in the drink are almost bland, which is surprising given the current mango season. The drink is free though when you sign up for their rewards program! Mango Green Tea - This drink benefits from the added sweetness to have a nice refreshing balance between sweet and fruity. Blue Lagoon Cove - Nice dessert that blends the flavors of mango and coconut jelly harmoniously alongside mango sago. Unlike the mango smoothie, mango chunks and juice in this dessert is sweet and delightful. Black Sesame Soup with Mochi - Classic Canto dessert that is executed well and not too sweet. The mochi is soft and tender and oozes with black sesame filling. Food: +1 Presentation: E Price: E Atmosphere: E Service: E Menu: +1 Insta/Yelp/Beli: @amei_eats Insta/TikTok: @ameizing.race

This place popped up on my map and as a banana pudding enthusiast I absolutely had to come check it out. It was a little annoying that they had already run out of party trays and so I had to settle for getting 2 pints instead. The girls at the register were super friendly though, and tried everything to make the packaging look super cute and presentable. The ube banana pudding is so unique and to die for. The regular banana pudding is also really really good. Overall, I also really like the aesthetic of this place, you could totally sit here and enjoy your dessert. My friends absolutely devoured both the puddings I got, and they were a total hit. If you are in JC, this has to be your go to dessert spot.

There's so many yummy flavors - it's hard to choose! I ultimately went with the rocky road (my classic favorite) and the cheesecake with rainbow sprinkles (because why not!?) and enjoyed every bite! I think the rocky road could've used more marshmallows but that's my personal preference for my favorite childhood fave ice cream. Service was great and allow you to try a couple flavors if you're unsure which is great as not all ice cream spots makes the flavors the same! It's only street parking so get ready to search for that when you come to visit - but it's worth it! And read street signs so you don't get towed or ticketed.

While the space itself is a bit small and more for takeout, it does have a variety of different cookies from sea salt chocolate chip to snickerdoodles to smores, given the huge size of the cookies I opted to order the mini cookies instead, specifically the peanut butter and the chocolate chip. Both were delicious and very crumbly, even when toasted up the next day. There was not a line when I ordered and my order was processed fairly quickly.

So get anything fresh, like made to order cakes or things you see come out right when you're there. Otherwise you run the risk of getting old stuff, which sucks that they don't manage that at all. On a Sunday afternoon lines moved quickly and we were able to find seats. This is a cute cafe that offers plenty of savory items and lunches, plus drinks like matcha, cakes, pastries and cookies. There is also a bathroom! The women behind the counter were all nice and patient with my questions, they also kept the line moving and were quick. I had high hopes for the Alfajores as this is an Argentinian bakery but unfortunately the ones given to me were stale. The cookie was very hard. Also the Dulce de leche was too sweet and burnt tasting to me. I also got a chocolate covered one and the cookie in that was also hard and dry. The strawberry croissant was amazing. Never had anything like that before. Not too sweet and very flaky. It has a ribbon of red on the outside which gives it a unique look. I would love to come back and try savory items. I'll continue to stick with the cakes and croissants for desert and make sure it's fresh!

I always get it with no sugar and it's honestly not sweet at all. Mango Sago is my husband's favorite. Even with no added sugar, it's still naturally sweet because the mango is so ripe. For fresh fruit tea in JC, this is still my favorite spot. Get the seasonal fruit drinks while they're available. And you might get lucky and see the cute guy working behind the counter.
