DiBartolo Bakery

My wedding cake was awesome! It looked like a treestump for my rustic venue. The owner Al Jr. Was so nice as well. The chocolate peanut butter cake was delish!

Got my daughter’s birthday cake there and it came out gorgeous! Went perfectly with the theme and even made the smash cake to match! Great job! :)

Their boston cream donuts are amazing, as is their flourless chocolate cake. The staff there is very friendly. I’ve also had their sugar and butter cookies; both are great.

Collingswood truly has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to sweet bake shops. We ordered a tiramisu cake for my mother-in-law’s birthday, and it turned out fantastic. The pastry cream especially blew me away. It was light, airy, but had tons of flavor. The topping was a thick dark chocolate shell that really contributed to a contrast in textures. Obviously the decorations were wonderful too.

I can only review DiBartolo’s based on the one cupcake I bought from them, but if the rest of the sweets are on par, I would say this is a solid bakery. It seems like they specialize more in cakes and custom pasteries, but they do have a counter of goodies to choose from if you plan to grab something small.
Parking can be a little iffy around here, but right out front they have a 15 min parking spot, so that might be your best bet.

For years my family and I have been coming to DiBartolo’s for our cake needs. From weddings, sweet sixteens, birthdays, and everything in between.
Their butter pound cake with crème frosting is perfect and it doesn’t get any better. Soft buttery pound cake with not too sweet frosting, it’s heaven on earth. They are also pretty good in the decorating department. I have brought in pictures and they never refuse and execute perfectly with my one or two tweaks.
Overall, I would definitely recommend to give their decorated cookies a try. For my daughter’s baptism I purchased some for favors and not only were they pleasing to the eye they tasted great too, my only regret is that I didn’t order more. They were crispy yet buttery and the buttercream frosting not too sweet.

While searching for the elusive awesome coffee AND awesome breakfast food locale we played Garmin Roulette and wound up at DiBartolo’s. A quaint little store front with an array of specialty cakes and goodies to get that sweet tooth shaking.
The only way the gentleman working behind the counter could have been kinder would be if he had offered to pay for our food himself. Sadly, but not regrettably, this did not happen.
Nonetheless, the Mrs. and I chose a modest assortment of treats to accompany our previously gained caffeinated beverages from another local, non-​chain establishment.
Peanut butter cream filled donut, Boston cream filled, raisin sticky bun and a small bag of delicate sugar cookies rounded out our healthy winter breakfast. The peanut butter and Boston cream were both quite delectable and yet slightly different in flavor than most, but in the most enjoyable way possible.
The sugar cookies were a hit with the wife who took liberty at dunking them into her java drink with much delight.
The highlight for me was the raisin sticky bun, which by the way was the last o the day, apologies to those who came after, yet there was still plenty of nut buns (walnut I believe) to be had along with whole pans of butter cake.
Next time you’re around, stop in, say hi and by a treat. Your mouth will thank you.

Great customer service– they were willing to fix a cake that I was not totally happy with for no extra charge. It tasted pretty good, and it looked absolutely beautiful. The best part was the friendly service.

Remember when this place was off-​white with the burgundy overhang? One time back then, I walked in and left empty-​handed. There was nothing that looked appealing at the time.
They then underwent a massive makeover with the help of the Food Network, and not only is the space SO much more inviting now, but they have a solid selection of baked goods that’ll have you doing math in your head to make sure you’re not going overboard if you have an overactive sweet tooth.
I recently ordered a cake from them for a surprise birthday party I was hosting and it was a huge hit with the guests. At $ 38 for half a sheet cake, it was affordable too.
I would absolutely recommend DiBartolo. Another great Collingswood business!

We just got married this past May 25^th, and we had our wedding cake made by this bakery since our caterer covered cake costs by them. We had purchased cupckaes from them in the past and the cupcakes were delicious. The wedding cake itself was delicious — but to be perfectly honest what the cake looked like was the most disappointing thing about our wedding.
Our first encounter with the woman who handled cakes was also a little frustrating to work with; she seemed very pushy and didn’t seem to respect my husband having an opinion (every time I tried to talk to my husband regarding his thoughts she basically tried to take over the conversation like his words didn’t matter). We had a fun, Pokemon themed wedding and we were assured they could do something very elegant and cute for the topper. On my wedding day, my first thought upon looking at the cake was, «why are the Pikachus crying?» It seemed that the colors of the fondant used for the topper ran, despite the cool environment it was kept in. This was before the ceremony even began, so it wasn’t as if the cake had been sitting there all night to give it a chance to melt or anything.
Our catering staff attempted to wipe away the runny color (and even offered to remove it), but it continued to look more scary than cute the entire night. The worst part is, we had paid extra for these figurines! I’m embarrassed about how it looked to our guests (something tells me pictures of it will end up on the cake wrecks website!) I still cringe every time I see a picture of the cake. The colors of scroll work on the cake was also strange — red (matched parts of our wedding) and greyish green (NO CLUE — I think it was supposed to be silver??). It was just an eyesore!
The bottom line is, the cake is delicious (hence the only reason I gave 2 stars at all), but if you want something cute and out of the ordinary, look somewhere else. I would have much appreciated it if they had told us that they weren’t comfortable with the type of figurine they agreed to make, we would have settled on something that was much more their comfort zone. It was definitely our biggest regret the entire wedding where we had spent a little extra money.

BEST bakery in the area. Anytime I need something for an event or special occasion this is the place to go to. This is a wonderful family owned business that cares for each and every customer. They do EPIC sheet cakes with custom designs. For my 30^th birthday I was surprised with a Dr Who themed Tardis black and white cake. IT WAS AMAZING!!! I pop in a few tomes a more the to get something on my way to work as a great for my coworkers and they absolutely LOVE whatever I bring in. This is my number 1 place for a sweet pick me up!

DiBartolo did the Rum cake for my wives 50^th birthday party. It was a wonderful event and a fantastic cake. Will be going there tomorrow to try their donuts. The cake could not have been any better! Donuts were not bad. Would highly recommend for Cakes. Donuts best I have found locally but not the best I have had.

Al Dibartolo Sr. is a complete ass. Its amazing he is still in business. If an Australian bakery expert hadn’t kicked his ass, he would be out of business. Dibartolo gives people whose last names end in a vowel a bad reputation. Over priced for the Dibartolo attitude that comes with every baked good, pastry, cake and cookie.

Pretty good blueberry scone. It had a nice crunch to the outer crust (but not so hard that it would cut up your mouth) and was soft and moist on the inside.
The Chocolate frosted glaze doughnut was alright. It was big and soft, but had a hard candy… thing dripped over the top of it that didn’t work for me. The candy shell was too hard for the soft doughnut.
The sticky bun (with nuts and raisins) was very good. Moist, sticky, and flavorful.
I was a bit disappointed that they do not make croissants, but I knew that was a long shot going in.
This bakery seems to be more focused on cakes than baked goods.

They do ALL of our cakes, from our engagement and wedding cakes to shower cakes, and everyone s birthdays cake. They make the best pound cakes and their specialty cakes are excellent. Carolina cake and Italian are ti fie for. The only problem is that so many people go there if you don’t pre order, their selection may be low.

DiBartolo’s is my go to bakery. I go there every Friday to buy donuts for my coworkers. Let me hit you with the highlights:
1) The donuts are enormous. Not some tiny bull shit dunkin donuts fake ass abomination.
2) I know many donut purists disdain donuts with filling. Don’t listen to those people, they’re unamerican and want to see you dead probably. That said, Dibartolo’s doesn’t inject their donuts with cream and filling, they slice the top of the donut off and then slather on the filling, effectively making a giant pastry sandwich. Very, very choice.
3) They throw a bone to the Jews and make Hamentashen. They are nice and soft, and the filling is tasty.
I like the interior. It was redone about a year and before that it was very 1970’s Italian, which I liked too. Whatever. Just give me the donuts.

Being Italian, I am a tough critic when it comes to Italian food and pastries. For years my family has been coming here for the best Italian rum cake found on this side of the Walt Whitman.
DiBartolo’s was recently on an episode of Save my Bakery. The host asked passersby to sample some bakery sweets and I was shocked that the people did not like the cakes. They must have been paid to say negative things. The bakery was also updated inside and out and the changes are great.
Recently, I put together a bridal shower at the Venice Plaza and was happy to hear that Venice Plaza uses DiBartolo for their cakes. I had a consultation for the cake and ended up just ordering a sheet cake — half vanilla and half chocolate. The cake was moist and delicious. The frosting was light and sweet.
DiBartolo’s keeps an active Facebook account and uploads photos of personalized cakes. If you have an idea, bring it in. I’m sure they can make anything you would like.
My friend used DiBartolo for her wedding cake a few years ago and they even accommodated her gluten allergy!

It’s not easy deciding between two excellent bakeries within blocks of each other… DiBartolo is one of those bakeries that come to mind for special occasion cakes. Great customer service by people who spend as much time as needed to make sure that your order is exactly what you want, need, and be perfect for the event you’re having.
The quality and taste of their cakes, donuts, and pastries is something that you’ll be more than happy with. The only downside to this bakery, like all others, is that they’re not open on Monday… Which gives you something to look forward to on Tuesday…

We got out wedding cake through this baker because our caterer used them, and we thank the baking gods that he did. We ended up with one of the most unique cakes I’ve ever seen at a wedding: a pumpkin topsy turvy cake with buttercream frosting outside and cream cheese frosting inside. Decorated with silk fall leaves and topped with our custom-​made pumpkin toppers, and we were in love with it. More importantly, our guests loved it, and that’s all we could’ve asked for. DiBartolo helped us to bring our own personalities into our wedding, and we’ll be forever grateful for their ability to conjure up an amazing cake.

These five stars go out to DiBartolo Bakery’s chocolate-​frosted, cream-​filled donuts, with a special shout-​out to the intoxicating aroma that wafts out of the corner building and into the neighborhood.
I can’t speak for any of the cakes, cookies or other pastries in the store, though they are all beautiful. When I walk into Dibartolo, there’s only one thing I’m after.
