Calandra's Bakery - Newark

The service was outstanding, the staff were very friendly, and the desserts and bread were exceptional.

I just enjoyed another delightful box of mini pastries. The cheesecake is consistently smooth and creamy. I've been indulging in their treats since the 1980s!

I ordered a cake for my father's 90th birthday from Calandra, and everyone commented on how delicious and fresh it was. I chose the vanilla cake with custard, banana, and a rich filling topped with whipped cream. It was out of this world! I can't imagine ordering a cake from anywhere else!

I always rave about Calandras because they have the best cakes! I buy them for friends, family, and colleagues. My favorite is the tres leches with fruit. The cream is fluffy and light, and the cake is incredibly moist. You won't find fresher or more delicious cakes anywhere. It's rare to come across something like this worldwide. Calandras is truly one of a kind, and the quality is consistently outstanding. No matter where I go, I make sure to get their cakes, and I’d even travel far just to enjoy them!

As a proud North Jerseyan, I absolutely love Calandra! I can confidently order anything from the menu, knowing it will be fantastic every single time. Those who criticize the prices simply don't appreciate quality. I'm actually grateful it's a 45-minute drive away; otherwise, I might find myself on the next episode of "My 600-lb Life." I will always be a happy, loyal customer of this third-generation restaurant! Oh, and there's a donor center just a few blocks down.
