Maple Bakery Inc - Lackawanna

Food felt like cafeteria food from middle school. Apple square missing cinnamon, hot chocolate tasted like the powder, tables haphazardly arranged. Nice folks though.

Hot table offers home made style options, but most importantly as a bakery they have some of the best bread it the city. From their buns to the calabrese pitta it’s all 10/10. Highly recommend the donuts as well.

Ordered a tiramisu cake for my parents 65 wedding anniversary. I ask the girl if it taste the same as the pastries , she began to tell me , they’re exactly the same . The cake was dry , no coffee taste at all and I told her to make sure it was wet like their pastries so dry and w whip cream ! No coffee , cookies were dry , sponge , I’m very disappointed since I always go there for pastries . There was no effort put into the cake , didn’t taste at all like a tiramisu.! Even the creativity of the cake was a disappointment, for my parents big day !

I really wanted to love this place. I've heard many good things both online and from locals that Maple was the place to go.Stepping into the brightly lit shop, the smell of baked goods are very inviting. We grabs a number of pastries including mini fruit tarts, pistachio cake and cannolis. The cannoli was great! Crispy yet soft shells with a fluffy dense cream. Wonderful! Then one by one, each pastry after the next just seemed bland. It tasted like sugar glaze , but that was it. Nothing to write home about.There is also hot bar, but the dried lasagna didn't seem to pique my interest. Leave the rest, take the cannoli.

The personnel in the bakery were pleasant, courteous and helpful.I will visit again.
