“Jo-Ann and her team were fantastic!!!! We came by her shop and had a tasting and went over the cake details with her. She wrote down everything and listened to us regarding exactly what we wanted. The strawberry cake with strawberry french buttercream we got was delicious! And the wedding cake itself was absolutely beautiful.
I also reached out to her privately to add a little topper in the form of a rabbit and a monkey on the cake as a surprise for my husband. She got every single detail we discussed correct! The cake was also delivered promptly on time. I’m so happy with our decision to use Aromas Boutique Bakery! Thank you guys!”

“My sister sent me some chocolate/chocolate frosted cupcakes, and they were DELICIOUS. Moist cake, scrumptious frosting. I will definitely be ordering treats from Aromas when I need a special gift!”

“Aroma is wonderful! I called from the Midwest, seeking help with a sort of odd request – a cake that would have either pink or blue icing in the middle to reveal the gender of my baby to my parents (who live in NYC). The staff at Aroma were so kind and helpful. They were ready to take my call right after the doctor’s appointment and delivered the cake to my parents very quickly. Skyping with them as they cut into the cake and found out the gender is a moment my husband and I will never forget. Also, my parents said the cake was delicious!”

“OMG!!! I surprised my wife with a strawberry shortcake along with a strawberry cheesecake (She LOVES strawberries) for her birthday and was beyond impressed with how amazing the two cakes looked and tasted. As a cheesecake lover myself and having a wife who always has a taste for strawberries, WE both could not be more satisfied with the results of our order. For that following week, we did exactly what one of Aromas’ little signs say, “Life is short. Eat dessert FIRST!”
Needless to say, I no longer have a list of “Fave” bakeries since I have had some of their desserts, just one. FINALLY, a place that puts their hearts and souls into their products and customer service. IMO it seems like they care more about the outcome and taste of their desserts than the happiness of their clientele, which ultimately results as a WIN-WIN-WIN for everyone.

“My wonderful friends worked with Aromas to create a one-of-a-kind purple daisy cake (in honor of my late mother, whose name was Daisy) for my bridal shower. It was beautiful, delicious and tasted like home. I highly recommend Aromas. I’m just waiting for another event so I have an excuse to order one of their cakes. The Knot 5 stars.
“We chose Aromas to make our wedding cake and it was a wonderful experience all around! Several months before the wedding, we had an awesome tasting experience with Jo-Ann and her sister Eileen. They presented us with a variety of samples — all of which were delicious — like rose, lemon, pumpkin, and of course the traditional vanilla and chocolate.
But we wanted a mallomar-inspired cake, so the Aromas ladies whipped up custom samples of marshmallow icing right then and there, letting us taste different samples straight from the kitchen (it felt like sitting in a friend’s kitchen… if that friend is a professional baker).
Everything Eileen gave us to sample was delicious (the same goes for all of her baked goods in general, by the way), and Jo-Ann really impressed us. She was so professional and transparent with the whole cake-designing process, including delivery logistics. She took the design we wanted and ran with it, even creating a beautiful edible cake-topper.
The price for the cake was very reasonable – I honestly don’t think you’ll find a better value anywhere in NYC given the taste, presentation, and the love that clearly went into making it. Everything about the cake was perfect on our wedding day. Now I find myself looking for reasons to have Aromas make me another cake!”

“Over the past two years, The Art of Hospitality has been shaking up the world of travel and could not have done it without our friends at Aromas Bakery Café. Jo-Ann, Eileen and their stellar team have been there every step of the way with us, going beyond the typical ‘add your logo to a cookie’ theme. We prefer that these two baking genius’ work their magic where they customize all our cakes, cookies, cupcakes that look like masterpieces, leaving our customers with a most delicious and memorable treat! It was not before long that they started catering ALL our events, from sweet treats to Happy Hours and dinners.
They take the time to research what we hope to achieve from an event, who is attending, and what is the goal for the evening – making our client get togethers, the most talked about events in Hospitality. We are most grateful to be true partners with Aromas!”

“Best bakery EVER!! I have ordered 4 cakes from here so far (with another on the way!). 2 of them were beautiful custom cakes. People fight over the left overs each time (if there even are any!). I’ve had the coconut which is fantastic and 2 pumpkins which are the best I’ve ever had.
This is hands down, my go to spot! Not to mention the friendly, patient, and courteous staff are always a pleasure to work with! I’ve gotten to the point where I would make up special occasions just to order a cake!”
