β€œLocated in Manhattan, By the Way Bakery was a last-minute discovery that turned out to be a wonderful choice. Since my friend has a dairy allergy, I compared several bakeries before ultimately deciding on this one. To be honest, a few others I contacted were disappointing in terms of responsiveness and flexibility -- but this team quickly replied to my email and reached out in a highly professional manner . They adjusted the cake design promptly according to my budget and even sent a detailed design draft for approval. It was the first time I experienced such smooth, efficient communication with a bakery. Within a very short timeframe, they delivered a custom cake that exceeded expectations . As for the taste, I didn't personally try it due to dietary differences, but my friend mentioned it tasted good -- slightly sweeter than a typical cake, yet otherwise comparable in texture and flavor. Most importantly, he absolutely loved the design . Overall, this bakery stands out for its responsiveness, customization flexibility, and thoughtful service -- a reliable option for those with dietary restrictions or anyone seeking a beautifully executed custom cake.”

β€œI think this place has the most delicious and beautiful cakes. They are gluten and dairy free which really helps make you not feel sick after eating. They're not too sweet and the price is so reasonable. I have used them for 2 years and it's my go-to a special occasion cake. Great shop!”

β€œIncredible GF baked goods!!! It's so nice looking around and seeing that you can have everything. I got the creme puff, red velvet bundtette, and chocolate chip cinnamon muffin. Everything was soo yummy and fluffy and well made. Would like to go back and get the coffee some other time.”
