This bakery is hands down the best ! Their 7" Carrot Cake is moist, the cream cheese icing isnt too sweet and it balances out perfectly. Their Apple Pie - Large is absolutely delicious, its naturally sweet, no extra sugary taste to it, the crust is also very delicate. Their Creme Brulee is one of the best I've had. 10/10 bakery.

Newark's most precious gem. Thank you Calandra's Bakery for always going above and beyond, and treating our special ocassions as if they were one of your own. The 7" Fudge Layer Cake is heavenly! Each mouthful was velvety, luscious, decadent, and absolutely irresistable.

Crème Brulee was to die for! Chocolate Mousse, amazing, very light and had a small layer of spongey cake at the bottom. Cheesecake was good, a little too thick for my taste, but overall good flavor. Tiramisu super flavorful, strong coffee flavor which I love. Cannoli was also to die for. Can't go wrong with carrot cake, super yum. First time here, will def be coming back!

The creme brûlée was absolutely amazing, super creamy and delicious. Cheesecake was also yummy. Also, thank you to the workers at this bakery, they were out of lobster tails so they replaced those with some other desserts for us!
