★★★★★5 months agoWe celebrated my boyfriend's 40th birthday in Greece and were so lucky to find this wonderful pastry shop to create our cake. Despite being a group of Italian guests coordinating from a distance, they made the entire process seamless and stress-free 🥹 Communication was always clear, detailed and timely, which made planning everything a breeze! They paid attention to every detail and followed our preferences to the letter. The cake was not only delicious but also exactly what we had envisioned. It made the party extra special and truly was the cherry on top of an unforgettable celebration! The quality was outstanding, and the price was more than reasonable. On top of that, they delivered it directly to the restaurant where we were hosting the dinner, which made things even easier. We couldn't have been happier with the service and the cake. It was truly a perfect experience! We highly recommend this bakery to anyone looking for exceptional quality and excellent customer service. Top notch!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

★★★★★4 months agoThe richest chocolate desserts I have had in Athens. Truly excellent desserts and very strong Greek coffee. This particular dessert shop does not skimp on ingredients. The English of the staff is very choppy so be prepared to use your hands to communicate. With chocolate desserts this good, just point to what you want and you will be fine.
