  We had a credit to get a weddingcake from this bakery. From the onset we made an appointment to meet the owner Cory for tasting and consultation. Coming from Nassau County it was a haul to get out to Port Jeff for our tasting and to discuss the cake. We arrived and Cory was not at the appointment that we made. The girl working the counter came out to attempt to help us and was not helpful at all, she stated that we should go on Pinterest in order to get cake ideas. We decided on our own the cake that we wanted and were asked to bring in the ribbon ourselves as they could not ensure that they had the correct color. We found out that the cake was in fact baked at the sister bakery in Levittown Dortoni. The cake that we got for the rehearsal dinner was from Dortonis so was a great opportunity for us to sample the service and quality. It was very concerning that the incorrect name was written on the cake and the receipt that the restaurant supplied said the correct name. I went in to the bakery the following weekend to deliver the ribbon for the cake and was treated rudely when I asked for some assurance that the wedding cake would not fall the same fate as the rehearsal dinner cake. I was denied such assurances and received the reply “mistakes happen”. We had asked at the initial consultation for a giant cupcake to be made for a wedding guest 30th birthday celebration which was the day of our wedding. There was no discussion of price until my wife received a call the morning of the wedding in the process of getting ready to ask her for payment or they “would not deliver the cupcake”. My wife called in tears the morning of the wedding to ask me to deal with the situation which I did and the bakers did not charge. The cake the day of the wedding was once again an issue. The ribbon that we delivered was not on the cake and the cake was 3 tier instead of the 4 tier cake we were told we were getting. The cake was extremely delicious as we had the Chantilly and strawberry.

  Breakfast for One Percenters. Need to find Range Rover driving suburban mommies? Look no further, it was like a cliche... Overpriced and pretentious.

  They make great pastries and bread. Also, they make great birthday cakes, anything you want in any color, and the cake is delicious!
