Vegan picture cake. It was delicious - even the picture part.
Front of shop
Left birthday cake, right carrot cake. I tripped on the way home so that's why carrot cake looks a little smushed

First time trying this place out. Must pickup from the window as the entrance is closed off. and eating it seems homemade. The heart cookies were sweet but just missing that certain someone to share them with. One of the macaroons was off kilter appearance wise but food wise- I mean it's TooGoodToGo. The taste is fine. Nothing like when Miel existed or the one off of Race St. if it is still there, probably French exquisite in those places.Staff is friendly.The custard like dessert was flavorful and I have no idea what this mash was besides edible and delicious! A local shop a tourist probably won't hit unless they are using TooGoodToGo or reading this review by chance, then maybe.

Yesterday I stopped Ramona Susan's for a birthday cake for my husband, Dave. I did not preorder the cake because I am a procrastinator! They had a beautiful vanilla buttercream cake right there waiting for me. The very friendly baker had lovely penmanship. I cannot say enough things about how delicious this cake was-light and creamy, dense and sweet. Absolutely outstanding! If you have a special occasion coming up or just want to treat yo self pop over to RS and support this adorable local business.

I stopped by Ramona's because I heard about the pretty rainbow cookies! I wasn't disappointed. The lady that was working there said they're mostly known for the cupcakes, so I tried one of those too.She was right, the cupcakes were the highlight of the two sweets that I tried. It probably differs between flavors, but the carrot cake one has this cream cheese-like frosting that complimented the moist pastry with salty, sweet flavor.The rainbow cookie? It was beautiful, but I've had better. I probably would've liked it more if it had raspberry jam or something else to add complexity to what otherwise just tastes like an amaretto flavored cookie with a bland chocolate coating.Overall, the shop has enough novelty that I would visit again to try something else.

It's been 6 years since my previous review. They still got it. Still the best cake. Still the only legit red velvet cupcake around. Still polite staff. Will be back to review again in another six years and I doubt my opinion of them will change!

Ramona Susan's Bake Shop definitely helped lift my spirit with their delightful treats! I've been wanting to find a nearby bakery in Fishtown that has amazing cupcakes and here it is!I was nearby, unfortunately, at the Police Department filing a report due to some rando vandalizing my brand new vehicle. Sucks. Yay, street parking (not). They weren't that helpful, and I decided to take a nice autumn walk from there to Ramona Susan's Bake Shop.The employee at the shop was nice and helpful. She suggested some dessert options for Friendsgiving! I had the pleasure of trying their yummy birthday cake, vanilla-vanilla, and pumpkin cupcakes. All of the cupcakes were delicious! Mmm!I can't wait to try some of their other treats!

The first time I tried this bakery I was just looking for cupcakes for a mini celebration. Myself and others tried it and we were hooked. Then most recently I was looking for a bakery in the area that would make a custom smash cake and cupcakes to match. Ramona Susan's was one of the only bakeries that I tried in the area that was making custom orders. The folks that work there are always friendly and make helpful suggestions. Not only did the cake & cupcakes look good they tasted delicious. The cake was moist, the frosting was delicious, and I believe strawberry flavored. Most importantly my daughter had a great time with her smash cake!Since the cakes are a hit, the staff is really helpful and friendly, and they are close by, this will be my go to for cakes!

WOW! I'm very much impressed and pleased with this business!I like that you can order inside (small space FYI) or outside with an available window order - very convenient if you happen to be walking your dog and want something sweet on your way home!The lady tending to the shop was very friendly and shared her insight on local favorites. I got the ice cream cookie sandwich - this is to die for! M&M cookies with an ice cream filling that is similar to the surfing in a cannoli? It was delicious! I also got 6 cookies (sugar, M&M, peanut butter) - all were very good but the sugar cookie was my favorite!I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. I'll be back!

Picked up a couple cupcakes to cheer myself up. Opted for birthday cake and carrot cake. I pre-ordered online and they were ready for pick up when I arrived about twenty minutes later. These cupcakes are absolutely devine! Soft and sweet. They were both topped with sprinkles and crystallized sugar. The frosting was the perfect amount. Some of the best cake I've had. I can't wait to come back and try some of their cookies. The crumb cake also sounds delicious. An amazing sweet spot in fishtown.

I asked for recommendations on FB for cupcakes to send to my ICU team at a hospital, contacted Susan's made the order only to be contacted later and told we don't deliver to that area...Huh?
