Reviews to Conca D'Oro Italian Pastry Shop
One of the BEST Pastry shops to go to, especially if you want to have a wedding cake made. We had one made for our Park Savoy wedding, and it was SPECTACULAR. Everyone wanted a piece of the cake, and we were so sad that not everyone got to sample it, it was THAT good.
When you want a wedding cake, look for Juan. He makes high quality cakes that not only look good, but they also TASTE good. He is the man for the job, and I look forward to doing more business with him in the future.
Thanks for everything, Conca D'Oro! From Andrew and Michelle Bautista.

Once again we are Amazed by Juan and his team. They superbly amazed us with a Beautiful and Delicious Wedding Cake that all our guest enjoyed and are still taking about. Cannoli filling and Italian cherries was the best recommendation we could have ever gotten.
Now the Conca d' oro pastry team strikes again with a Beautifully designed Barbie Birthday Cake. We would recommend and will definitely order from them again.
As a side note, Juan and his team have always helped us complete the process seeming less even though we are a thousand miles away in Sunny Miami Florida.
Thank you Conca d' Oro Team!!!

My cakes and Italian pastries have been purchased from this bakery since I could remember. Everything is home made and you can taste the quality of his products. Pastries are fresh and incredible!
In May, I got my wedding cake from here and it was incredible beyond words, inside and out!!! When my husband and I went to our cake tasting, we were impressed just by the first step. Juan asked us what we imaged for our wedding cake, appearance wise, how many people, etc. We wanted a different cake with dimension with both round and square cake layers and he was able to do that for us. We had what we thought would be our cake toppers, Mickey and Minnie bride and groom ears that were made from a vendor on Etsy and they were in fact way too big for the top of a cake. Juan made them fit perfectly on one of the cake layers- - it looked STUNNING!!! He decorated the cake so beautifully! It was elegant, classic and most importantly, flawless.
When we sat down to try the favors, Juan brought us a plate with many different fillings spooned around a mound of light and creamy buttercream. This was the hardest part considering they're all delicious and so fresh tasting! My favorite was the cookies and cream mousse- - heaven!! We wound up getting cannoli filling since my husband is obsessed with the cannoli filling which is so delicious. Hands down the best cannoli filling we have ever tasted. We paired it with the vanilla mousse which is the cookies and cream mousse minus the cookies. Now I'm very against fruit in cakes but Juan convinced me to try their imported Italian cherries which I was skeptical about since I don't like cherries. He put a little cake, cannoli filling, buttercream, and a cherry on a spoon and had me try it and it was so so good we wound up getting the cherries too!
When we had the favors chosen, he drew us up a little sketch of what the cake would look like and added a silver rhinestone trim. I could not wait to see it at that point. Juan is a great guy. So talented beyond words and takes great pride in his work.
Usually when you attend wedding and you see a cake it just looks like an ordinary wedding cake but not when you looked at ours! When our guests saw our wedding cake, they went up to it and would stare with an open mouth. It was stunning. I wish I would relive that moment again!!
Aside from their cake, some amazing things they carry in their store besides their fabulous cannolis are the "baba rum" little pastries that are SOAKED in a rum syrup with cannoli filling inside and their pignoli cookies. They're so soft in the inside and chewy on the outside. These two are my favorites. You can also get "cannoli snacks" which come with a bag of cannoli "chips" and a generous portion of cannoli filling in a plastic container they pipe in to order. Cannolis are also filled to order. You will NEVER get a soggy cannoli :)
Thank you Juan, we love Conca D'Oro!!!!

I have been going to Conca D'Oro ever since the fifties when it was in Newark. It was a Sunday or holiday treat to which my family ALWAYS looked forward throughout the decades. When it relocated to Union, I was ecstatic, since I didn't need to wait for holidays any more, and besides, it was within walking distance for me, making it a great stop for a cappuccino and pastry! When Juan became the new proprietor, he took the business to a new level of deliciousness as he expanded his talents to include very personal, custom-made creations. He was THE pastry chef of choice at my daughter's reception at Nanina's in the Park. He pleased my very fussy bride! More recently, he created a baby shower cake for the same picky daughter. She was soooo astonished that he went above and beyond to create a cake that met and exceeded all her detailed requirements that she quickly dubbed him our very "CAKE BOSS!!!!" Thank you, Juan and family! You're the best!!
