This should give you a good idea of the kind of guy Rafi is - I was delivering an Amazon package to this place and on my way out Rafi says "here take this with you" and hands me a big intricately designed pastry for free. It was one of the best things I've ever tasted and I'm a big sweets guy. Definitely recommend!

Rafi's Bakery is a one of a kind place. With not 1 but 2 memorable visits, they really take care of you. We became fans watching Rafi, the owner, on Food Network's Holiday Baking Championship. We were absolutely blown away by the incredible pastries we saw and tried on our first visit. We even got to meet the legend himself, Rafi. When the the staff overheard us talking about being fans of his from Food Network's Holiday Baking Championship, they told him & he came out from the back. He was so unbelievably kind and even took a photo with us. The staff gave us samples and let us try some goodies before we bought stuff to go. The next time we went it was for my mother's birthday, we planned to surprise her with some pastries from across the country as she lives in NJ. My mother was over the moon and was so excited to have the Rafi's creations for her bday. Being able to connect with my mom thru the show AND get her a pastry IRL was simply incredible and unforgettable. Can't wait to go back!

My niece has recommended Rafis for the cake I wanted for the family gathering we were planning. I’ve never tried it before. Although I only briefly described to him over the phone what I was looking for without any pictures and stuff, it turned out gorgeous and indescribably delicious. It was so good that I ordered another small cake the following week. I’ve also tried his pastries on display, pistachio and vanilla tarts, hazelnut balls and the fruit yummies in cute little jars…I can’t really say which one was my favorite. One was better than the other. My family and I LOVED them all. Thank you so much Rafi for your great taste, exceptional professionalism, and amazing customer service!!!

We very recently placed our cake order with Raffi for a Christening event. Right from the beginning Raffi listened to our request for the design and colors to be used. He then provided flavor samples of the cakes. We were extremely pleased with our cake upon walking into the venue as we never showed him a picture of the design. He met and surpassed our expectations in terms of the design and flavors. Will definitely come back for our future events. Thank you very much!

This place is a one of a kind gem that I’m so excited to have found! We came here with the intent of getting a wedding cake and what I found was a lot more. The ingredients and quality of their deserts is unmatched. They use real ingredients paired with a sophisticated approach that I usually only find in France! The flavors are seriously so delicious when it comes to their cakes. Thanks again for giving me a tour of all of the amazing creations you have. Can’t wait to come back!

The owner, Rafi, is such a humble, kind, and talented human being. His pastries are all a work of art with high quality ingredients. There is so much beautiful and intricate detail that he puts into his work- it’s mesmerizing. It’s beyond exceptional. Since the owner studied culinary arts in France, he brings a piece of Paris right here in our backyard. Love visiting this bake shop. Wonderful experience.
