This place does not disappoint! Incredible selection of delicious pastries. I had a Sfogliatella and it was the most delicious pastry I’ve ever had. The cannolis are also incredible. Parking can be challenging but 10/10 recommend!

A lovely Italian pastry shop in Newark, NJ, offering cakes, danishes, coffee, and many other fresh treats. The whole place feels neat and orderly, with a strong crew running things smoothly. Even though around ten folks were in line when I arrived, it moved quickly, and I waited no more than five minutes. The service felt warm, quick, and well-organized. I found parking right across the street, since the shop has a small lot with room for around ten cars. For anyone seeking a clean, friendly spot with classic Italian sweets and pastries, this is an easy choice. I usually visit a similar shop in Fairfield, yet since this one is closer to home, we thought we should finally stop in — and it fully lived up to expectations.

Calandra’s Bakery is a classic choice for couples in New Jersey. Their cakes strike the perfect balance of taste and design, with stunning creations that make wedding photography cake-cutting moments look incredible. Always a joy to capture!

Let me begin by saying: I bought bread from the shoprite near me and this was the logo on the bag, and the name of the bread when i bought it. Now, this loaf of bread is terrible. Sometimes for lunch i'll get a loaf of sourdough, or just whatever looks good. This looked good, but it smells and tastes like chlorine, its super stale (which could be cause i got it from outside the bakery, i'll give them that). Its just an allround disappointing loaf of bread. I will never get them again and honestly, i'm a little concerned im gonna get food poisoning, ngl.
