Rose Valley Cakes
After grabbing something to eat at Veggie Castle, I finally decided to check out Rose Valley Cakes after passing it a dozen times whenever I would go to Veggie Castle. To my surprise, a vegetarian/vegan bakery was this close to home the entire time!! No more trekking to Brooklyn from Long Island on days when I don’t feel like traveling too far.
Rose Valley Cakes is a great cake shop that offers vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free pastries. There was so much there to choose from. They had slices of cake, whole cakes, cookies, cake pops, and more. Each item was carefully labelled so that you’re aware of what is vegan and what isn’t.
After checking out the wide variety of flavors they had to offer, I decided to go with a familiar one. I haven’t had Black Forest cake in almost 10 years, so when my eyes spotted the vegan option, I had no choice but to indulge. The cake was soft, moist, and out of this world delicious. I made the mistake of sharing a slice with my mom, and now she sends me to Queens every week to get 4 slices of cake.
Rose Valley Cakes is a great and important cake shop. It brings dairy, egg and gluten free options to a neighborhood that is lacking in restaurants that cater to vegans and vegetarians. This bakery is also close to the train station and JFK Airport, so it’s the perfect spot to grab a treat before your trip.
