"Berkeley's Crixa Cakes has a wide array of specialty cakes and baked goods, with an emphasis on Hungarian, Russian, Central European, and American treats. That means cakes like amaretti cream cake and fresh ginger cakes sit side-by-side with pavé vergiate, a flourless chocolate cake. And the bakery’s generous deep-dish fruit pies are second to none — whether it’s peak summer stone fruit season or during the throes of your holiday-driven pumpkin pie cravings." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
