Cuba Bakery

They make something utterly special here… craveworthy…unique. It’s a delicious two layer cheesecake-​flan that is 4 inches tall and unbelievably better than anything over at the c-​cake factory. If you remember that flan de queso at Lila’s on Bird Road, (RIP Lilas), you’ll know the rich kind of flan that is one of the layers, and married to a cheesy custard of nystyle cheesecake with the caramel syrup over all. It’s surely enough to feed 20, or 10 sweets lovers, so don’t fret at the price.
I have purchased a couple of the basic rum cakes over the past year, and it always gets raves from birthday guests as the best they’ve ever had. It has a flavorful rum soak that is twice as creamy and rummy than anything at that famous wedding lady cake’s shop (you know the one, who also sells at Winn-​Dixie). Think moist versus dry, and you know why this one is superior. It’s also creamy tasting, and to me, seems like a cross between a Tres Leches and a rum cake though I doubt it has cream. The icing is delicious, and generously thick, too.
Service wise, they are brisk and friendly at the same time. I often come in when they are helping another patron, and don’t mind waiting, as they give you undivided attention until your transaction is complete. Would recommend to anyone, for a pastry and coffee (or single slice), to catering a party.

I am new to homestead so I wanted to get my Cuban fix satisfied, so I tried Cuba Bakery out and it was disappointing. For Sunday 11AM it was empty (and now I know why) so service was pretty quick! I asked for Cuban bread a pastelito assortment (with queso, guava and guava/​cheese) and the pastelitos were tasteless. Maybe I am just spoiled since I am used to Cuban bakeries in the heart of Miami, but I honestly wished this place would be better! The bakery attendants were very friendly!
I haven’t tried their food by the pound or anything else, but it didn’t look that appealing. I would rather drive down to Miami to gets Cuban fix satisfied in the future.

Prompt service. Delicious cakes! great place!
