I am updating my prior review as this place has gone from bad to worse. I haven't been here for quite some time but yesterday I wanted to get a St. Joseph zeppole. I didn't feel like going to Hammonton so I checked the ones in the grocery store and after reading the poor ingredients that was a no. ....so I thought that I would give this place another try. I decided on the lemon ricotta cheesecake. After making a nice pot of espresso I took a bite of this cake and almost gagged. This did not taste like lemon or ricotta. It tasted like high fructose corn syrup, generic cream cheese, and gelatin. The taste and texture was awful. The whole cake went in the trash. $6.00 for a tiny cake....no tiny trash. Never again. Original review: I stopped in the other day for pumpkin cheesecake. I have not been here for a while. In the past staff was inwelcoming and professional. This is not what I experienced this time. The woman working there kept her back to me and yelled over her shoulder that she be with me in a minute. I said "No problem,". After ignoring me for another 5 minutes I walked closer to the side of the counter she was at so she realized I was there. Itwas then I saw she was arranging cupcakes on trays with NO GLOVES. I was appalled but to top it off she licked her finger and at that point I left and will never return. Disgusting. Unfriendly, unprofessional,...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWent there to order a special birthday cake on the 21st, and was told to email Victoria the details. I did that on the 21st and was told that since the pastry chef was on vacation, she just needed to make sure that the bakery staff was okay with making the cake since it required fondant. I replied immediately saying that I was okay with it. This cake was needed for a my husbandās birthday on the 29th. Didnāt hear back from her for next few days, figured Iād check in and see how things were coming along on the 27th. Thank God I did! She finally responded to my email with āIām terribly sorry, the bakery team doesnāt feel comfortable making your cake and the pastry chef is on vacation and our designs are limitedā. Are you kidding me?!?!? Why couldnāt you tell me this daysssssss ago so I could find another bakery to make the cake??? Horrible business!!! How long did it take for you to find out that the bakery team was not comfortable making the cake??? And if I had not taken the initiative to reach out to you, I would have never heard from you at all!! Itās now Thursday evening and I cannot get a special order cake for Saturday for my husbandās birthday party. Really disappointed in...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI have had their cupcakes and loved them so they were the 1st we thought of for a surprise 80th birthday party.
I had emailed Victoria 6 months in advance and she called me a few days later. She listened to what I wanted and made some great suggestions. I sent her a picture of the invitation since we wanted to match. She also suggested the lemon curd with vanilla cake and it was delicious.
I did reach out to her again to solidify the order and pick up date and paid in full. She told me they do not provide receipts. The only complaint is that we spoke and emailed numerous times and solidified we would pick up the cake the day before party, but when we got there we were told that Victoria had for pick up the next day. The day of the party we were told to pick up at 10 but noone was there until 11. An hour before the party which was 30 minutes away.
Beautiful and delicious and told everyone who asked that they...
