"For sweets like red velvet cupcakes and chocolate chip cookies with smoked sea salt, try The Bakery on Bergen in Prospect Heights. It’s a Black-owned spot that’s been making sculptural birthday cakes and rainbow brownies in the area for years. Their curbside patio is open from 12 to 11pm daily, but you can also take your order to-go and find a shady spot in Prospect Park. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

Wow, WOw, and WOW again. From the minute I went in, I saw the fabulous Kim. What a blessing she is and so pleasant. I had a strawberry cupcake which I am still tasting. The whipped cream on top was so light and the cupcake not overpowering with sugar. I am definitely recommending this Bakery and will be purchasing on a larger scale. I must mention Luis who was also a pleasure and funny. He made the visit even more special for he is full of hidden nuggets 😉. Thanks again. May God keep, cover and continue to flourish this business.

Their cookie was soft, chocolatey, and had sea salt on it. Delicious Was it worth the $5.50? Not sure, but everything is overpriced these days. Apologies for the photo, my mouth took some bites before my camera ate.

I I really have to leave a review. So the first time I came here .. The owner was very kind sweet and nice. The bakery was on top top shape and organized. One thing is that there’s nothing for tasteful than something memorable. I mean the cookies 🍪 here are just absolutely delicious 🤤 this woman is a gift from heaven when it comes to making sweet treats.. I highly recommend coming here! I need to come too 😩😭

Just had the best customer service experience, cookie AND cupcake of my life. The woman who owns this place is so kind, helpful, and really cares about her customers. I felt the love the moment I walked in. Also, holy cow!!! The baked goods are incredible!!!! I’m normally not a cupcake person but the banana cream with chocolate looked so tempting... just had to go for it and I’m extremely happy with my decision making. If you’re in the area or need desserts for a birthday, baby shower, whatever, this is your spot!!!!!

Recently, I visited Brooklyn,NY, to see the Jay-Z exhibit, and while in the city, I decided to visit businesses Keith Lee approved. Before heading to the airport I decided to visit the bakery to take some cookies back to Atlanta, GA. I was greeted by the store manager Louis who was very friendly while Akim was working with another customer. She smiled and said hello. Louis proceeded to show me the cookies they had available as he had to bake some more. I purchased three cookies (2) chocolate chip with sea salt and (1) Asian Sweet potato cookie. I was disappointed as they did not look like the cookies Keith Lee purchased and described. The cookies he purchased were crispy on the edges and chewy in the center. I purchased what I describe as cake cookies thick and dense.

I popped in here for a sweet treat on my way home and all I can say is the owner is RUDE & distatesful . As a native New Yorker, it's disappointing to see a business that prides itself of being "black owned" have such poor customer service and treatment towards its black customers. She's a very hostile woman, who can't answer simple questions about her baked goods, without being rude or condescending. I will be sure not to spend money here again and you shouldn't either — disregard any generic PR response to this message.

I had a vegan funfetti birthday cake made here last weekend and it was AMAZING! Everyone commented on how good it was and were shocked when I said it was vegan. The owner was great to work with and even went out of her way to allow me to pick it up during usually closed hours. Really appreciate it and definitely recommend this bakery to everyone!

Some of the driest, overly bland and just bad baked goods I’ve eaten. The people working are rude as ever (probably because of how I look) and the place smells like spoiled milk. Eating from the trash would be a better choice.
