From concept to execution, I had a great experience and will purchase all future cakes from Soma. Stunning, delicious, great customer service, and a great appreciation for their customers. Thanks Soma and Hiroyo. Everyone asked me where did I get my cake from so expect some new customers :) I had a great birthday and my cake was a showstopper. I love a classic vanilla cake with butter cream and it was everything I could imagine. I'm not a big fan of fruit fillings, or an abundance of different flavors, so this cake reminded me why sometimes simplest is best. Already thinking of my next cake. Thank you!

WARNING! CAKE was AWFUL! FELL APART!…read more I ordered a cake from a professional baker (Soma cakes) a few years ago that was beautifully made but was a bit bland, so I decided to look for a different baker. I found BakeStreet online, and I chose a baker, only to find out these are not "professional" bakers but HOME BAKERS! I didn't realize they employ home bakers until I asked my baker for the address. The NYC address they use for their business is NOT a real bakery! I thought these were professional bakers working out of a bakery. I found this part to be very misleading and only found out after I selected my baker and paid a deposit. My baker was 30 minutes from the city by car. I had made a deposit, and even though my intuition told me to back out, I decided to take a chance based on her reviews. I'm really curious if the reviews for the bakers are from real customers. Makes you wonder. You have to realize these cakes are being made in their homes! There are no sanitary rules that you know are being observed. My cake was placed in a cardboard box, and although it didn't really look like what I wanted, and the tassel, lettering, and diploma looked amateurish, what can a customer do after they paid for the cake and need it for a special occasion. Seriously, this is a great way to get ripped off! Once we got home and took the cake out of the box, it was falling apart, and the company had the nerve to tell us it was made properly! This cake was worth $100 maybe $150 but NOT almost $400. A cake that is baked properly will not fall apart after a 15 minute car ride! At the time that I picked up the cake, I told her I could hold it in my lap, but she said it wasn't necessary and placed the cake in the car. My Soma Cake that lasted an hour in the car to a different location never fell apart! The company had the nerve to offer me a $50 credit for a future cake that I would NEVER purchase! Why would I purchase another cake from a home baker? Poor customer service! They can enjoy my money! What a RIP-OFF! If a cake cannot make it in 15 minutes from pick-up to your location, there is something wrong with the cake! If you want to have a cake beautifully made, use Soma Cakes but don't get the red velvet. She is very talented. Her cake looked so realistic and we received a lot of compliments, but unfortunately it was bland, but it was a lot cheaper than what this company charged me, or you can just make your own cake. I'm sure it will be better than the disaster I received! Also, PLEASE do your research on this company. They have bad reviews on TrustPilot! If you want an okay cake, order from here. If you want a cake for a really special occasion, please go somewhere else. Find a place with an actual bakery and professional bakers. You will pay the same amount but get better results and not have to deal with their awful customer service!

I'd been meaning to come here for years but for some reason just never made it over. Well, when I…read morehappened to be in the area for work I made a point to stop by and finally check it out. What a cute shop! Everything in there looked amazing honestly, a great selection of fancy pastries and croissants / normal cafe fair. I love that little Cheesecake Rabbit and I've had it before and it's particularly lovely. But this time I went for a buncha different stuff, like chestnut, mango and lychee-apricot pastries, plus a jasmine passionfruit cream croissant. ALL of it was AMAZING omg and the attention to detail! Everything is edible, everything is beautiful. The flower slightly fell off of one while the employee was putting it in the box and she insisted on giving me a new one -- nice! I appreciate that, everything costs enough it should feel special. But it's also so delicious that I don't care what it costs. I'll be back!

I had previously saw that they do afternoon tea sets but looking at the environment, I'm not sure if it's really giving that type of vibe. It's more of a casual cafe vibe to me. I got the almond croissant, pistachio, and the raspberry cream cheese one shaped into a bow. I also ended up consuming these the next day instead of fresh. My favorite was the pistachio cream croissant. I ate it cold from the fridge and the pistachio cream was so good. Not too sweet, subtle pistachio flavor, not very strong at all. It was really good tasting that I couldn't stop after one bite. The raspberry cream one was not bad but nothing too amazing. I did also consume this one cold from the fridge, I think it might've been better fresh. I do enjoy the raspberry jam bits and the cream cheese wasn't too sweet. The almond croissant was my least favorite, it was just ok. I had better almond croissants before. I did bake this one before consuming. Overall: I think the croissants were huge and fairly priced for their size.

The brightly colored lemon curd has a sour, but lively flavor. Freshly chopped thyme is infused in the shortbread crust. I cannot fathom why the color of the crust on the other side is completely different. Regardless of color, this bar is an "A" all the way! Seating is limited to a narrow table with a couple stools and some outdoor tables. Due to its popularity, this local bakery is always filled with customers. I highly recommend purchasing your order for take out only. #fromlucie #lemonthymebar #eastvillage #fromlucienyc #fromlucieeastvillage

We always walked by this place but never went in it looked closed from the outside. My husband and…read moreI are bubble tea fans, so we were surprised to see they actually serve it. From the reviews, it seems like they're more known for their cakes, especially wedding cakes. Hubby tried the taro milk tea gave it a 2/5. He said the boba had no flavor but still managed to finish it (classic). I got the brown sugar milk tea fresh boba, soft and bouncy. I liked it better, but still just a 3/5 for me. The bubble teas are very basic, nothing fancy and toppings are basic (boba, aloe jelly, something else can't remember) with additional pricing. They don't use oat milk just lactaid. Verdict: 2.5/5 overall. Next time we will come try the cakes** Kung Fu Tea is better, but Tea and Milk still takes the crown for freshness and quality!

I got the cube cakes here, and despite being very distinct flavor profiles, they were all delicious. My friends and I's favorites were earl grey with yuzu glaze and the lemon olive oil with strawberry glaze. They also had vegan options which tasted just as good (and as moist) as the non-vegan. Like I wouldn't have been able to tell by tasting it. I also have had cakes from here (various friends' parties), which is how I first heard about it. My favorite cake is the Blueberry Earl Grey cake. The earl grey flavored pastries here are amazing. Such a great distinct flavor that is not too heavy and pairs well with the fruitiness of the blueberry. I also tried their strawberry shortcake matcha latte. Very very sweet, but a great pick-me-up (which is actually unlike their pastries which I'd consider to be "not too sweet" = perfect sweetness level for the Asian palate). The staff was very pleasant, and they put my pastries in different bags to note which ones to refrigerate and which are okay at room temperature.

However, I find that a lot of the restaurants in LIC is on the more expensive side, so maybe this is the average cost there. Luckily, all that money wasn't for nothing. It was my first time having a naked cake, and I thought I wouldn't like it that much since I'm all about that frosting/ whipped cream. But it was perfect. The two layers of sponge cake sandwiches a thicccc layer of frosting, so it wasn't too dry. The pandan flavor came through and wasn't too sweet. Though, I do think I could get just as tasty or even tastier cakes for a lower cost. Love that it comes with complimentary candles!

Texture is what you dream about - not necessarily crunchy on the outside but it's like the perfect combination between the crisp (NOT crispy, I mean crisp) / chewy bite that is the perfect amount of carmelization.

Perfect balance of dough and chocolate. Finished with a beautiful sprinkle of sea salt on top that actually stays on the cookie and is present in every bite. I have no idea how this cookie hasn't gone viral yet - it is better than every chocolate chip cookie I have had in NYC. Perfect cookie.
