I finally decided to try the famous almond torte after many years and it certainly lived up to the hype. The salted almond and moist cake really make this stand out from imitations in other bakeries. The pumpkin gob and thumb prints were good too. The staff were helpful and willing to make recommendations.

This is one of the top bakeries in Pittsburgh, with a nationally recognized almond torte. Today they have a WALKING TORTE! This location has a very friendly staff and convenient location.
I was pleased during my visit to see that they now offer Klavon’s Ice Cream!
Planned a visit to this bakery after finding it on a few “must-do” lists for a trip to Pittsburgh. I arrived with my daughter shortly after they opened at 7am on a weekday and, fortunately, there wasn’t much of a crowd because we both stood there frozen for quite a while just staring at all the delicious-looking choices. The counter staff was helpful and we finally settled on the burnt almond tort and some rum tea cookies - both just outstanding.
This bakery was absolutely worth the hype. Quaint shop, with friendly staff. The smell of freshly baked deliciousness will greet you at the door. Burnt almond cupcake was recommended to me, but the burnt almond torte (a bigger version of the yummy treat) was well worth it for my first visit. 6/5 stars, if it was possible
Excellent bakery. I had a pepperoni roll ($2.50) & the burnt almond cake ($5) for lunch. Fantastic, both of them. Very rich cake, and that's what I wanted. Quaint, cute, but lots of choices. Come in for a bite. Decent prices.
Excellent cake. We ordered ahead for our daughter's first birthday. Had no issues placing the order online. Also had no issues when picking up the order. All the employees were very kind. The cake was very good and the design was better than we were expecting. A little on the pricier side but not outrageous, well worth the cost for quality product.
Very tasty. The almond torte is the dish. Not quite Dick's Bakery, but if you can't get to San Jose, this'll do nicely.
Well done! Loved the strawberry cake with strawberry frosting. Been craving a good strawberry cake for the last 4 years for my birthday, & i finally got it. Thank you!
My friend and I had a wonderful experience here! The staff was so helpful, as we were transparent that we were there from out of town. The almond torte way exceeded my expectations! We also got some little truffle things that were equally delicious, but the almond torte was really something special. The staff also recommended a great spot for a meal when we asked. If I’m ever in Pittsburgh again I’ll happily return!
I got my son's birthday cake here. It is very tasty and the cake looks like the picture I sent it looks better in person! The girl at the counter was very friendly. My parents got me a cupcake from here it was very good. My son loved his own little cupcake and his cake. I want to get more goodies from here!
