After getting our flu shots, I thought that it would be nice to get some baked treats. It wasn't nice at all! Our family of four includes our 10yo daughter who was having a tough time deciding between the delicious looking baked goods. She asked several questions about what things were and how much they cost (I gave her a budget). Eventually 3 of us had selected our items and some more customers had entered. The lady at the register gave me the total ($4.91) and told me that we needed to go because of the other customers. Please note that our daughter had not selected her item. I gave my daughter the whole 3,2,1 count down then was told by the lady at the register that we needed to go. I gave her a $20 and grabbed the bags of 3 items and left. Shortly, I noticed that my wife and daughter were still inside. I returned and dragged my daughter out without a treat, crying. My wife was given $4.41 in change. I called back and told the lady how upset I am and that we would not come back. Later to add insult to injury I realized that we were cheated out of $10.68 of our change.
Hopefully my daughter will enjoy the item I selected as I no longer have any interest in it.
Should you decide to go to Egypt Star, I sure hope that you know exactly what you want so you don't risk inconveniencing the shop keeper or their other, more valuable, customers.

When faced with such blatant rudeness and disrespect towards me our my family I will do my best to walk away. Such a person does not deserve my business and I don't need to let it upset me so much. There are other bakeries in Emmaus, especially during the Farmer's Market on Sundays, that will likely serve me (and...
Read moreI recently tried the coffee cake from Egypt Star Bakery, and it’s truly the best I’ve ever had. I can’t speak to the other items they offer, but this coffee cake is something special. The texture is perfectly moist, with just the right amount of crumb, and every bite has a rich, buttery flavor that feels both homemade and indulgent. It has a delicate balance of sweetness without being overpowering, making it ideal for pairing with a morning coffee or just enjoying on its own. If you’re a coffee cake lover, you have to try it. Egypt Star Bakery has set a new standard for me...
