Holy cow what a dump. I have no idea how they are staying business. You can have a line 10 people long and they just don’t care about taking your order. HOWARETHEYMAKINGMONEY? Its a small business that doesn’t care about business. Stay away i cannot stress this enough. No organization skills. They couldn’t find a cake I ordered and i told them what it said, the type of cake, AND the order number. Totally a garbage establishment

This bakery is around the corner from my house. I always go here for quick birthday cakes or cookies. I have not been disappointed. I have never ordered a cake here yet, but every time i go in there are a variety of cakes and cookies to choose from, and their pricing is pretty good too. I would recommend this bakery, especially if you are in the area.

My husband and I went with D&D Bakery to make our wedding cake for our reception after getting a recommendation from our hall. We live in Queens, NY and drove out to Farmingdale to meet them. The bakery smelled AMAZING! We did not have an appointment with them, but they were still accommodating with us and let us do a cake tasting the same day. I was surprised that they did not have different cake flavors — they just change the filling in the cake based on the order. Nonetheless, the cake tasting went well, and we chose a French cream + strawberry combo. On the day of the event, they delivered the cake on-time. Unfortunately, my husband and I were running around at our reception and only got to taste a bite of the cake, but our guests seemed to have enjoyed the cake! The only reason I am giving them 4 stars is because of the mini heart attack they gave me right before my reception. I was told to call the week of the event to confirm my cake order. I placed the order in October and my event was in December. When I called the week of the event, they could not find my order! They asked me to come to their bakery and show them the receipt, which I honestly did not have time for living so far away and still having so many last minute things to do! They eventually found my order, but it definitely made me more nervous about their professionalism. It also seems like there are not so many people that can speak English there, so the language barrier made it difficult at times. Still, we are grateful for D&D accommodating us during our cake tasting and for delivering our yummy wedding cake!

So this place is where sterling caterers gets their wedding cakes. There are a million bakeries in long island that can do a much better job than this place. They suck soooo bad when it comes to cakes. First, we went there with a cake picture to see if they could do it. They reassured us they could. It wasnt a hard cake. All it required was buttercream flowers to be piped on. The rest of the cake was actually very simple. They reassured us a few times that it was simple enough for them to do, so we ordered it. We had to pay $ 75 additional for the cake bc it required additional work… fair enough. Day of the wedding, cake arrives at the venue. It is beyond hideous. The piping looks amateur and is extra thick. The cake looks like a triangle and not a three layered cake bc the flowers are piped on so thick that you cannot differentiate the layers. It looks like someone made it quickly at home. The flowers actually fell off at one point. The guests even asked about the poor quality of the cake. Dont waste your time getting a cake here. Terrible experience

I been buying from this bakery for 15 years for all our special occasions and my sweet tooth cravings and always happy, our family favorite Three milk cake(tres leches) my latest order was my baby-shower cake. Yellow cake with whipped cream, chocolate mouse with strawberries filling OHMYGOD delicious as usual all our guests love it, I only had a little piece left for myself. As usual my compliments to the baker, I know you never let me down.

Love this bakery! I’ve been shopping here for years. I love their rainbow cookies and their fruit tarts, which only Delia knows how to make so well. I’ll be coming here forever!

We have been going to this bakery for a few years now, primarily because of the Argentinean pastries that can only be had on the weekend. The alfajores are delectable and the croissants with dulce de leche are mouth watering good! The«elephant ears» are the best I’ve ever had, so incredibly crisp! The chocolate dulce de leche cake is outrageous & decently rich! The also sell Yerba Mate for those of you who love to drink mate! It’s a little bit of Jackson Heights at our doorstep! By the way, Postre Balcarce can be ordered at this bakery, so no more trips to Queens for this delicacy!

D & D Bake Shop is a 30 yr old bakery located in a small older strip center, in South Farmingdale, just minutes north of Southern Pkwy, West of Rte 110. I have likely passed it by many times not noticing it until just recently. Thanks Laura — for your 1st to review. and for pointing me toward D & D Bake Shoppe. I knew this would be an interesting review. for one thing I phoned to check if they were open in bad weather last week, and the person wasn’t interested in my bad connection and seemed a bit old school on the phone. None of this Unilocaling where, what, when was to be had. etc. lol. So here I am, pulled up today to check it out! Secondly it is now a multicultural bake shop including a variety of items to serve the community. On the sign, they make it clear, they carry what you may be looking for. French, Jewish, Spanish, Italian Bakery. Hmmmmmmmmmmm… now you have my attention. We’ll see, but I can tell one thing. I am feeling mostly Italian is still the basic tenet here. Inside, a variety of colorful fresh looking cakes rotating in a glass case, and a fresh array of bakery. Cookies, pies, babka, pasteries, soda breads etc. Cookies a bit light in color and sprinked etc. one S shaped biscuit like cookie with, powdered sugar caught my eye, like grandma used to make. hmm. So basic but good, but of course not grandma’s. They also carried NY style, Italian & Hungarian cheese cake. Good looking chocolate babka with some cherries inside. Mm. Photos tell the story. Btw, my photos were not appreciated, so I limited them to the few I took. Or would have taken more. So the babka qualifies for Jewish Bakery? It would stand up well if brought anywhere. Then there it was, Tres Leches, the same odd bland cake I found in two Columbian bakeries. Surprise surprise, this was the best Tres Leche I have tried, and now I am officially converted. If you haven’t liked it’s blandness before, now is the time to try again. I think I tasted a hint. and I mean hint of lemon, and the icing soft and marshmellowy. all in all, it was something I wish I brought more of. Sold in pieces($ 6) or by the cake($ 28), one piece was a bit bigger than the Columbian places. But soooo much better. German bakeries have such a knack, but Italian’s take the cake. hmm. Irish Soda bread looked good so why not… but had to photograph it at home. Despite a concern over my taking a few Unilocal friendly photos, they remained courteous and let me leave with my snacks. Yes, I risked my quickly wearing out welcome, for my fellow Unilocalers. Kept true to finding and sharing cool places with my friends. The place was clean, the people helpful, the bakery creative and fresh, the selection nicely varied. A nice place, and a treat to find.

Stopped in to D&D in search of some pasteries to take to a family Christmas party. I was hoping they were a hit because there were some tough critics here, i.e. older Italian relatives. They BETTER be up to snuff! lol They were pleased! Very much so! I’LLBEBACK, ASARNOLD S SAID!!!
