Villa Bella Bakery

For locals I'm sure they already know how great this place is and have been talking about it for generations. But if you're not from the area, this place is 100% worth going out of your way to. Bakeries like this on LI are getting harder and harder to find. Old school vibe, a sweet nona working at the counter speaking Italian, came with my kid and she greeted her it brought me back to being a little kid on LI going to Italian bakeries. But main point is this place is Sicilian, and does Cassata and Cannoli insanely well. First off, no one is making Cassata anymore on LI. It's a labor of love dessert and is difficult to make. But they have big Cassata like a cake, and then mini Cassata di Saint Agatha which is even more rare. They do it old school perfect way. Yea you see them at Uncle Gu

I made a rush request for a large napoleon cake and they did a wonderful job according to what I asked. They were very helpful and Kathi was super kind all the time. Flavor of the cake was 11/10 super super delicious!!!

I just bought a cannoli cake for my husband's birthday. I must say it was terrible! No taste at all, the cake was dry and nothing cannoli about it. I've been going here for over 20 years and, unfortunately, this was the last time. I heard there is a new owner and maybe the recipe changed. In any case the garbage can will get the leftover $41 cake!

I ordered cookies and a sheet birthday cake for my mother’s 90th birthday party. The cookies were delicious…but the cake was awful! I ordered a yellow cake with chantilly cream, strawberries, extra rum and whipped cream (no sugar). I got NO CHANTILLY CREAM WHATSOEVER…the whipped cream was so full of sugar it tasted fake…and there was almost no rum, so it was dry! It’s just not fair that I spent over $100 for a cake that was awful…I apologize to my mother and her guests for this bakeries lack of professionalism
