After years of family tradition with this bakery, getting to shower our baby with a cake from Dubois made the whole day even more special. Delicious and beautiful cake!
Been living around this neighborhood my entire life and decided to give this a bakery a try based on the stellar reviews. I needed a cake urgently and it seemed that this place had a strawberry shortcake ready in hand. When I went it and saw how it was one of the only two cakes they had, I was reluctant at first since I assumed it might have been sitting there for a few days and wouldn’t be fresh. I still took a gamble, and when I tried it, I was pleasantly surprised. I’m not a fan of strawberries in my cake by any stretch of the imagination, but this cake completely changed my perspective on strawberry shortcakes! It was nice, creamy, fresh, and delicious. My family members loved it as well and complimented my choice. I’ll definitely be coming back to this bakery in the future for cakes!
This bakery has been loved by generations of my family. I had the luxury of stopping in today to grab a fresh cheese danish, some eclairs, and other delicious goodies. Extremely reasonably priced FRESH BAKED GOODS and they are high quality! Christmas time is the best in my opinion to get the assorted cookies- always a hit and classic.
I had to write a review because the flavor of this cake deserves it. We ordered the strawberry shortcake, with whipped cream. The cake was amazing, it had everything we asked for and more. Thank you guys for decorating it so beautifully. I definitely recommend you to try them, you will fall in love. I have tried all the flavors they offer and they are all great!
This is the best bakery in NYC by far. Queens mom and pop shop they've been here for many many years definitely a neighborhood staple. There a few great bakerys like this left this is a must stop destination baklava to French breads croissants and cookie galore! Also during holidays their pies are sensational!
What kind of person plans a 2 hour trip to queens to buy cake? A fanatic, someone with too much time, or a foodie that appreciates the hometown feel and delicious tasting baked goods.
From the outside, it looks like any local hometown, very understated. But 9 times out of ten, anything you buy and eat as soon as possible sends you back into a time where a pastry or cake stood on its own based on taste and texture versus fancy presentation.
The strawberry shortcake and black forest cake are a must buy and eat. Please not the shelf life seems to be short so you must buy and eat right away.
I also tried the apple pie, still good, although felt could have used more filling. I also tried the croissant, cheese danish, and baklava. All really good.
They have the best baklava in town!!! As other reviews have stated the strawberry shortcake is also wonderful! The only thing you need to be aware before you come is that they are cash only.
Planned a family gathering for my mother birthday today and wanted to get some cakes. Ordered from Du Bois pastry shopee and was very satisfied with everything. Taste and decoration was lovely, definitely ordering again soon 😊
Don’t think about this bakery just go and take it..we love their services we ordered red velvet cake and I gave him the design he made exactly same what I had asked for thank you Jake for your service.

Best Hidden Gems in Queens. I went to this bakery countless times and tried most of their products. I still couldn't find anything I don't like! Everything is so delicious! Baklava, Strawberry short cake, cheese cake, Chocolate stick and more! Moreover, the price point is very affordable! the whole strasberry shortcake is like $18! the picture shown are their baklava.
Have tried and enjoyed the strawberry shortcake—light and not too sweet. Also the baklava, soft on the bottom but nice and crispy on top. French bread is also done right with crispy crust and soft inside. Agree as in the other posts that the main person, perhaps the owner may seem gruff but that’s also why pre-pandemic (pre masks) it was such a reward to elicit a smile or a laugh from him. Worth trying out if you have not.
This place has been a favorite since I was a kid. The have the best baklava and strawberry shortcake. Highly recommend this place.
Tremendous cake! Ordered it in the morning and picked up this handsome, delicious cake earlier today from Du Bois! The members of my household, myself and especially my beloved dad enjoyed it very much. Thank you Du Bois!
Omg not even exaggerating this is my childhood Cake my Dad use to buy me for my birthday 🎂 I just love it spongy moist delicious I am just so grateful to find this place a coworker of mine brought a cake to work everyone loved it especially me so I called and told the very nice and helpful Baker 👨🍳 to make me a yellow buttercream pineapple filling cake it’s amazing and the price only $20 I told him he can decorate it how ever he wants and he ask what should I write I told him don’t is ok he said I’ll write “Happy Summer “ just Lovely I also bought very good scones and Italian Bread 🥖 Thank you so much for bringing me back to my wonderful childhood.
Best value and quality cake in NYC.
This is a mom and pop shop that deserves more attention.
Where else can you find a great quality, 8 inch cake that's made of real quality ingredients for $19?
The fruits used are fresh, the cream icing is fresh, I'd pick cakes from here over the fancy newer bakeshops any day.
Aside from great cakes, their baklava is also a must try! Red velvet cupcakes are good too.
Do they sell the best tasting cake in NYC? No.
But what you'll get is a good-tasting quality cake that surely is worth every penny.
My recommendations:
Strawberry short cake
Tiramisu
Fruit Cheese cake
They made the most wonderful LOL themed birthday cake for my three year old. It was very delicious and looked even better in person. I’m one happy customer.
I’ve been going to this pastry shop for a little over a decade now. I place the order for the strawberry shortcake with fresh strawberries. It always comes out banging. It’s light, fluffy, and perfectly balanced with its sweetness. The cake is only $20. You cannot beat that price and quality anywhere. It’s literally impossible.
Always come here for their black forest and strawberry shortcakes. Price can't be beat and the quality is superb.
