🍰 Bakery Review: Front Street Bakery – Rockville Centre, NY 🎂☕ When it comes to special occasion sweets that never miss, Front Street Bakery is the gold standard on Long Island. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone or just picking up something sweet “just because,” this neighborhood gem delivers every single time.

🎂 Special Occasion Cakes: Front Street’s cakes are as beautiful as they are delicious. I’ve ordered custom cakes here for birthdays, anniversaries, and showers, and each one has been a showstopper. Moist, rich layers with just the right amount of sweetness, and frostings that are light yet flavorful (their whipped cream frosting is especially divine). Whether you’re going for classic vanilla, rich chocolate mousse, or their signature strawberry shortcake—every bite tastes homemade but elevated. Plus, their decorating team nails the details every time.

☕ Coffee Rings: If you know, you know. Their coffee rings are legendary—and an absolute must for brunches, holidays, or just a cozy morning at home. Buttery, flaky pastry filled with cinnamon, pecans, or fruit (the raspberry cheese is a personal favorite), topped with just the right drizzle of icing. They’re generous in size and even better the next day… if they last that long!

🍪 Desserts & Pastries: From mini cheesecakes to éclairs, fruit tarts to cannoli—their dessert selection is both classic and crowd-pleasing. The variety is perfect for holiday trays or sweet tables at events. Their black and white cookies also deserve a special mention—soft, cakey, and balanced just right. And during the holidays, their seasonal offerings (like pumpkin cheesecake or chocolate-dipped Italian cookies) add the perfect festive touch.

🧁 Customer Service & Experience: Friendly, fast, and efficient. Even when the line wraps around during the holidays, the staff moves quickly and makes sure every customer gets personalized service. You can tell this place is a beloved part of the community.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Whether you’re ordering a wedding cake or picking up dessert for Sunday dinner, Front Street Bakery consistently delivers quality, freshness, and that just-right homemade feel. A true Long Island treasure.

Given how much I (and by extension my husband) care about cake, it was never really a question that we’d use Front Street for our wedding cake. We even put in our venue contract that we could substitute our cake for something else, which we ended up doing after hearing mixed reviews about their in-house bakery. Being so serious about cake, I was not taking any risks. We use Front Street for everything, from birthdays to regular parties, so using them for my bridal shower, rehearsal dinner and wedding was a must! They’re always so attentive to my quirky requests (many odd birthday cakes for my husband and a Notre Dame groom’s cake for a rehearsal dinner) and nothing they make is bad. Their cakes taste good days later, as evidenced by our wedding cake which was still delicious almost a week later! Love them, and will continue...

All I can say is "Wow!!!" It's been YEARS (@ least 15) since I stepped into this family owned bakery and my has it changed-- for the better! With renovations the square footage has expanded-- that the line that used to be out the door most Saturday mornings can nearly wrap itself in the circumference of the bakery. There's a 21st century model ATM-- that would put any others that are stationed in banks to shame-- there's even treats for the pups!!! Something that definitely wasn't around when my mom used to purchase my annual birthday cakes from there more than 50 years ago! Yet with all the changes and modernization that's occurred, one thing has remained constant... THE TASTE❤

Thank you Front Street for the great memories you conjured up upon my most recent visit! I promise I won't stay away so long...
