Sweet or savory, full meal or quick snack: Hot Breads has you covered. My husband and I stumbled into their location in New Hyde Park more than a decade ago and every time we were in the area we'd stop by and clean them out of most of their savory puffs. We only learned about this location a couple of days ago by accident, and when I needed something to bring for my office potluck pool party today I knew exactly where I wanted to stop.
The puffs I'm talking about are simple: a variety of classic Indian dishes baked into puff pastry. But simple doesn't mean boring! The flavors pack a heck of a punch and they hold up really well. A few minutes in a toaster oven or air fryer make them pure magic, and if (like my husband, who doesn't care for sweet breakfasts) you are constantly in need of quick breakfast items picking up a handful of these will set you up for success for days!

   Read moreBeware they don’t communicate upfront any cost. Exorbitant price for birthday cake which does not have good taste. I ordered a 2 pound cake and requested to put a kungfu panda and the person said it is 24 dollar for cash and 25.68 for credit card(they don't even tell this different pricing for cash and credit card). By the time I paid they charge me 34 dollar saying 10 dollar for the image. They did not tell me 10 dollar for the image on a 24 dollar 2 pound cake. If they have told upfront, I would have said not to put the image for 10 dollar. I paid 23.99 for a 5 pound 13 oz BJ cake and 34 dollar for a 2 pound Hot bread cake. I ordered just because there were vegetarians who won’t eat egg. People who ate both cakes said BJ cake is good compared to Hot breads. I would never recommend this shop to my friends as it does not live up to standards in taste...
   Read moreI recently purchased an eggless cakes and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. While eating we immediately noticed a strong onion odor emanating from the cake. It was so overpowering that it felt like I was about to bite into an onion rather than a cake. As someone who specifically chose an eggless option due to dietary preferences, I was extremely disappointed by this unexpected and unpleasant taste.
While I understand that mistakes can happen, the presence of such a strong onion flavor in a sweet dessert like cake is unacceptable. I hope that the bakery takes this feedback seriously and takes steps to ensure that such incidents are avoided in the future. As a customer, I expect better quality control and attention to detail.
This is second time we felt the same. It’s sad...
