Paddy Cake Bakery

Cute little bakery on main drag of Bloomfield. Great selection of products, average/reasonable pricing as far as bakeries are concerned in my opinion. We went because my friend wanted a pakzi which they only make on Thursdays and Fridays. They had a small selection left when we arrived of unique flavors not your average cream and jelly. They had strawberry pretzel salad, almond torte and an Oreo one. She settled in the Oreo with chocolate cream. The service was fast and friendly and helpful since we explained it was our first visit. We tried a small variety of things, 1/4lb cookie, cannoli, thumbprint, sandwich cookies and a brookie. Everything was delicious!

This is what you may consider an "old school" bakery. It's been in the heart of Bloomfield forever but offers a nice variety of items at a fair price. 7" birthday cake ~$24. Cookies and donuts galore.

Honestly a great bakery in Bloomfield! The staff is always very nice and their tiramisu is stellar!! It's always the bite I look forward to at Little Italy Days. I think they have decent cream puffs too. They carry so many great desserts and even donuts. It's a great spot to get all your sweets. I love their new logo. The store is pretty big and I'm always happy when I come inside and see their lovely display of baked goods.

For national donut day, we were in Bloomfield and stopped in. It has been a couple of years since we were here. They had a great selection of donuts and numerous other baked goods. The service was friendly and patient. Most importantly, the prices were more than reasonable. The donuts we got were fresh and tasty.

My family LOVES Paddy Cake! We always get their cakes and cupcakes for special occasions and they never disappoint. Everything is very reasonably priced. I just stopped in for Memorial Day weekend and got a single layer chocolate cake for only $6.99. A dozen cookies was about the same price, depending on if you get iced cookies or more expensive ones.Can we talk about the apple fritter for a minute? I am not one to order a donut for a breakfast treat... I more so go for a scone or something to dip in coffee. I have heard about apple fritters before, but never actually had one. WOW. Paddy Cake's apple fritter is amazing! It is gooey and filled with apples and cinnamon and drenched in a glaze. I have learned that they sell out quick - so get there early! If you live in Bloomfield you can count on running into someone you know at Paddy Cake.

My family has been coming to Paddy Cake for years! Some of the best donuts and petit fours in town! This is the epitome of your local bakery! Some Pittsburgh traditions and delicacies thrown into the mix. Birthday cakes are always a treat. Parking is on the street.

The three woman working the day I had went there were all super friendly and nice. It was the day before Easter and we stopped in from being at the hospital. It was so nice to grab fresh air and fresh bake goodies. There was so much to choose and pick from. The decor on the baked goods were super cute and I was obsessed with my dipped chocolate peep. The pineapple upside down cake was good even a few days later. I can't wait to come back. This place is amazing, ten stars, price is fair and so good too. My husband and I will definitely be back and tell family & friends about this place.

Back for a visit in the Burg and decided to take bus 54, a nice leisurely bus if you want Strip, Lawrenceville. Bloomfield or Oakland. We got off near Paddycake in Bloomfield and with fond memories of my childhood, popped in. What a wide selection of stuff. Cakes, half cakes, cookies, doughnuts, fancy desserts, danish... they have it. We didnt need anything but just took in the ambiance and the smells and ended up with two bear claws which were large and stuffed with nuts. I do wish prices were posted. I might have bought more but felt too embarrassed to repeatedly ask "how much is this, how much is that" My idea of $ is about 15% less at least for my bear claws. The bear claws had that old time bakery taste that I remember from my youth. Hard to describe the sweet dough but my mouth recognized it. Do not buy too much in advance because this stuff is meant to be eaten and like all fresh things goes stale quicker than store bought stuff. Undoubtedly you fill find stuff here that will satisfy your sweet tooth with that old Pittsburgh friendliness. I see that I was so distracted after coming in that I forgot to take pics of all the cases filled with yummy choices. Sorry.

Paddy Cake Bakery in Bloomfield has always been my go-to when I'm visiting family in Pittsburgh. This popular bakery has a wide variety of treats to choose from, all of which look better than the rest! So often, when you're a Pittsburgh native, monumental moments are marked with a cake from Paddy Cake. When I graduated from Central Catholic High School, we celebrated with a huge sheet cake from Paddy Cake Bakery. They're always moist and the frosting is perfectly light and sweet. The cake artists have definitely amped up their game in the past years from plain flowers and balloons to full blown Star Wars characters like Chewbacca and Grogu (aka Baby Yoda.) The true sleeper star at Paddy Cake Bakery that any local will rave about... the donuts. I recently stopped by to pick up a post dentist-visit treat (yes... I love going to this bakery after getting my teeth cleaned as it's only a few blocks from my dentist's office.) A long long time ago, as in when I was in high school, Paddy Cake only offered their delicious dones on Friday mornings. If you slept in, you weren't getting them. Luckily for me I would stop in on the way to school to snag one, usually when they were still warm. While their donut selection has become a staple menu item and grown considerably from the very few types of offerings, I always stay true to the glazed donuts. It's like and airy. The dough is sweet and light with the glaze adding the perfect kick of sugar. Paddy Cake Bakery definitely holds its own against places that specialize in donuts.

I love this bakery! They are open very early so I was able to go there before work and pick up donuts and cupcakes for the crew at work! In my opinion, these are the best donuts around. And the staff could not be better! One of the ladies even helped me take everything out to my vehicle! Thus is my go to bakery!
