Awarded Best of Zola
“I had a great recommendation of this vendor through a close friend and I had high expectations but everything honestly succeeded all my expectations and I couldn't be more thankful. Juries was super responsive, helpful and sweet the whole time. She is incredible. I ordered a 3 tier fondant cake where each tier had a different flavor (strawberry champagne, chocolate hazelnut and lemon vanilla). I'm really glad we did that because it would've been impossible to pick just one flavor and our guests got to experience different cake flavors as well. We got lots and lots of compliments later. Besides the flavor she nailed with the design. It was exactly what I had in mind and the macarons matched the cake perfectly. I recommend this vendor 100% and I would hire them again without a heartbeat.”

Handmade with love and the best ingredients in NYC since 1995. We bake fresh and ship same-day, so cookies arrive ready to enjoy (though we recommend warming them in the oven for that famous gooey center).

“We brought out Levain cookies for our guests as the last round was called at the bar, they were the perfect delicious last note before we headed off to the after party. Everyone scrambled for them, and I saw a few getting stashed in pockets for later! My favorite text from a friend the next morning was: "I have to say, Levain cookies for breakfast is def a thing. Fills the belly. Calms the demons." :)”

Family recipes, passed down for generations - we wanted to bring a welcome twist to our favorite desserts. It's hard to pass up a good ice cream and we wanted to take the love that our families have put making traditional desserts and share it with the world in a form that everyone loves.

“I worked with Mughlai Creamery for a benefit event and was very impressed by their professionalism and quality of product. They were proactive before the event regarding set up, staffing, and helping pick appropriate flavors for the guest demographic. They came early despite the inclement weather, and were set up and ready to go before guests started pouring in. They have a beautiful cart that's a piece of art itself! The event guests loved the different flavors! I would recommend Mughlai Creamery hands down for your next event-from backyard celebrations to large scale productions.

My husband and I had a clear vision for our wedding and wedding cake and Melanie was with us every step of the way refining that vision and providing us with two different tastings to ensure the three custom flavors we wanted were executed perfectly. Not only was she so patient with our busy schedules, but truly worked with us on our special day not for us. We cannot recommend her, her talent, artistry, and flavor combination skills enough! Our wedding cake not only tasted incredible to us, but all of our guests were raving about whatever flavors they had and how they were impressed that a structural cake like that was as soft, flavorful, and just straight up delicious. She also made us over 100 cannoli that we served on our dessert table and my Italian mother couldn't shut up about how they reminded her of her mother's cannoli. We couldn't have asked for a better person to handle such an important element of our wedding and we CANNOT RECOMMEND Melanie and Sweet Pea Cakery enough!
