    The cake was amazing. The prices at the bakery are a little high but the cake was absolutely perfect. I love calandras bakery. My florist decorated the cake w the flowers - and i added the two personalized toppers.

    Absolutely Beautiful and Delicious

    Choosing Calandra's Bakery for our wedding was one of our best decisions! From start to finish, their professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. They went above and beyond to make our special day perfect. The quality of their cake exceeded our expectations, and their team's friendly demeanor made working with them a joy. Our guests were thoroughly impressed, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you, for helping to make our wedding dreams come true!

    Delicious! Guests STILL Talking About the Cake!!

    I grew up with my Italian NJ family saying "Calandra's is the best," and they were 100% right. We went with a vanilla sponge caked with a raspberry mousse filling, which ended up perfectly matching the color scheme of our wedding. Everything was decorated beautifully, and it was fluffy & light after heavy cocktail hour and dinner. Months after the wedding day, people are still reaching out to me to ask about what flavors the cake were / where they could get more of it. :) Thank you for a delicious and beautiful cake!

    Wedding Cake

    Our venue gave us the choice between Calandra's and Palermo's. We chose Calandra's over Palermo's given the fact that Palermo's has discontinued in-person tastings. We definitely made a solid choice! Aisha and Maria were very welcoming and knowledgeable! From the minute we walked in, they greeted us with unlimited coffee. They had a private table set up for us and gave us all of the time in the world to sample. All of the cakes were so delicious, we had a hard time choosing! In addition, we were not pressured into adding additional items to the cake.

    We totally recommend Calandra's!

    So good!! Cannot recommend enough

    The cake was a huge hit! The tasting was great and everyone at Calandra's was responsive, professional, and friendly. Made the process super easy, and we are happy to recommend them for any event. Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without their cake!!

    Delicious wedding cake !

    Calandra’s was the preferred vendor of the Park Savoy. The tasting was delicious and very fresh. The cake we chose was two different flavors. Chocolate cookies and cream and chocolate fudge . It was delicious ! The restaurant in the bakery is also great!

    Cake was Delicious!

    We loved our wedding cake from Calandra's! They hosted a wonderful in-person tasting and were so friendly and kind from the moment we walked in the door. The cake was fresh and so delicious! Many of our guests mentioned the cake and how much they enjoyed it. We upgraded to funfetti (amazing decision) and alternated tiers with vanilla & caramel custard. So yummy!

    Highly recommend

    Our wedding venue gave us the choice of a bakery and we chose Calandra's Bakery. We definitely made the perfect choice! The staff at Calandra’s was very welcoming and knowledgeable! When we walked in, they had a private table set up for us and gave us all of the time in the world to sample their delicious cakes and pastries. The cake choices were so delicious, we had a hard time choosing! In addition, we were not pressured into adding additional items to the cake. Maria took her time to help us design the cake and mixed different ideas to get to our dream wedding cake. On the of day of the wedding, our cake looked perfect and even better than I could have imagined. It was DELICIOUS! Three layers, three flavors! We also really appreciated the instructions on how to properly store the top of our wedding cake so that when we have it on our first Wedding Anniversary, it will still taste amazing. We highly recommend Calandra's.

    So Many Compliments on the Wedding Cake!

    In addition to the wedding cake selection process being very quick and easy, our cake was beautiful and delicious! Many guests asked us where we got the cake because they wanted to order from the same bakery and told us it was the best wedding cake they’ve ever had.

    A delicious experience!

    Calandra's Bakery made our wedding cake experience both delightful and delicious! Our tasting appointment was very fun - my husband and I brought my dad with us, who enjoyed the variety of cake samples (all of which were very generous portions!). Once we were done tasting the different flavors, we talked through layers and design with Aisha, who made the process so seamless and practically mindless (which we appreciated since our heads were in a million other directions with wedding planning). We ended up with three great layers (cannoli, red velvet and strawberries w/ custard) decorated with cascading sugar flowers, and it was a show-stopper!

    Delicious Cakes

    Loved my galaxy wedding cake and so did my guests. So many people said this was the best cake they ever had. The chocolate with cannoli cream was amazing! The second tier with strawberries was so fresh.
    Had a second cake made for my brother in laws birthday that fell on my wedding day and it was fantastic as well!

    Amazing bakery

    Calandra’s was delicious. The lady we met with for our cake tasting was so amazing- she was professional, allowed for us to enjoy our time and did not try to push any extras. Their cake was fresh and so delicious- our wedding cake was UNREAL. They delivered on taste, presentation and I had not one issue. I highly recommend Calandra’s for the most perfect wedding cake!

    Amazing Quailty!

    Calandra's was a preferred vendor and the cake was included in our venue contract! We went for our tasting and had an absolutely amazing time! The tasting included both chocolate and vanilla cake with every filling option. Planning our cake was extremely easy and the woman we worked with was very passionate about her job!

    Perfect Wedding Cake!

    My husband and I got our wedding cake from Calandra's and we were so happy with our decision. From the moment we arrived for our tasting consultation, we were beyond impressed. We sampled over two dozen combinations of cake and filling, which is more than any other bakery offered us during our consultation. Everything was fresh and delicious. We especially liked that you could taste the flavor and it wasn't overly sweet. The people at Calandra's were very helpful and so easy to work with. We chose a simple piping design, with flowers added on by our florist. We had three tiers, with cookies and cream, red velvet, and vanilla cake with fresh strawberry. It should be noted that my husband is not usually a fan of red velvet, but he loved it from Calandra's and insisted we get that filling for one of our tiers. Our cake looked absolutely beautiful on the day of our wedding and even 4 days later, our leftovers still tasted as fresh as they did on our big day. We met with a few other cake vendors that our venue worked with and some of them wanted to charge additional, ridiculous fees just for some simple piping designs. Calandra's did it all and had the best quality cake. We are so glad Calandra's was a part of our special day and we will definitely go back for our one year anniversary cake!

    Delicious!

    Our venue partners with Calandras for wedding cakes, but even still we knew it would be amazing. We were easily able to schedule our cake tasting, even if it was a little different with Covid. They give SO many flavor options it’s crazy. Since our cake was going to be 3 tiers, we were able to pick 2 different types and then a combo of both for the top tier which our venue gave us to take home. We wanted a super simple cake design and weren’t looking for anything fancy, but the cake was beautiful and was truly delicious. Got a lot of compliments on it!

    Calandras is Amazing

    The cake was fresh and delicious!! Everyone kept talking about the cake and asking where we got it from. The baker was extremely helpful and the cake was exactly what we wanted!! They are friendly and family oriented. Beautiful with a cascading bouquet down the front!! I grew up on Calandras bakery and they never disappoint.

    Delicious AND gorgeous!

    We had two choices of bakeries to decide between for our wedding and we went with Calandra's, hands down. We had our tasting and we knew from that moment that was the bakery for us. The flavors were so delicious and the variety was outstanding. Then when we saw what the cake would look like, we couldn't wait! It was everything we wanted and more. And to have people actually come up to us AS the wedding cake was served to tell us how delicious it was, well that should say something. I know that there are many times i don't even eat the cake at a wedding, they can be so tasteless and horrible. Needless to say, my husband and I ate the top of the cake already. Why wait? LOL! Fantastic!!!

    Delicious cake

    Calandras bakery has the best cake I’ve ever tasted! It is so fresh and so many of my guests at my wedding commented on how delicious it was!! They were very helpful over the phone scheduling our tasting and very helpful when it came to choosing our flavors. The cake had a beautiful design on it and we were so happy with their services!!!

    The MOST delicious cake

    When we met with Aishah, we had a feeling this would be the place we ordered our cake from. No other bakery was as fresh as this one. She gave us exactly the design we wanted and didn't try to upsell us on anything. We have the top tier frozen (which we got to choose our own special flavor for), the middle tier was completely gone, and the third tier we got to bring home about 2/3 of it and IT WAS STILL DELICIOUS THREE WEEKS LATER when we got back from our honeymoon.
