Amy's Bread

Amy's Bread in New York

  • Cake: Tasted like a nice mix of cocoa and vanilla, but was missing the slight cocoa bite and aftertaste that you usually expect in a good red velvet. It was there overall but didn't have that distinctive, "Ah, there's the cocoa!" moment.
  • Frosting: Buttercream that was actually somewhat lemony in taste, but very creamy and delicious.
  • Coloring: Bright medium red
  • Consistency: Very moist (almost to the point of being slightly paste-like) and springy to the touch.
  • Additional Comments: This was actually very good cake, just not what you'd hope for if looking for a traditional red velvet.
Amy's has some amazing breads, cakes, pastries and soups. This bakery is definitely worth a visit. Renee recommends the dark chocolate cherry bread loaf and the vanilla cake with pink frosting.

~We give this cake a 3.5 out of 5 stars~
