My husband and I got our Wedding Cake from Benkert’s in October. The cake was perfect and exactly what we wanted. The bakery offered a take-home cake tasting kit, which was great for us to be able to sample and make decisions. We were able to do each tier in a different flavor, and the cake was absolutely delicious. We had many guests specifically compliment how good the cake was. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wedding cake.

I got my wedding cake through Benkerts bakery and it was absolutely perfect. I had a very specific cake request that required fresh flowers included on top and it looked amazing. The cake tasted so good!! We wanted fresh strawberry jam in our cake which many bakeries were unable to do, but Benkerts did it and knocked it out of the park. The jam had chunks of strawberries in it which is exactly what I wanted. They delivered our cake on time and in perfect condition. I would definitely recommend Benkerts to anyone looking for a perfect wedding cake. Best cake I’ve ever eaten in my life!

I visited this store for the first time and was warmly greeted by Emma, an outstanding associate who made my experience truly special. From the moment I walked in, she went above and beyond to help me select the perfect cake and even took the time to carefully write the name on top. Her professionalism and dedication to excellent service were remarkable.

Beyond the exceptional service, the bakery itself offers a fantastic variety of cakes, cookies, and other treats. Whether you’re looking for a custom-decorated cake, a ready-made option, or even smaller frozen cakes, they have something for every occasion. I ended up getting two of the frozen cakes, and they were absolutely delicious!

The welcoming atmosphere and top-notch customer service have definitely won me over—I’ll be returning for my next birthday cake without a doubt!

I called to get a customized cake, my son loves sushi so I wanted a cake that looked like a sushi roll. I was amazed at the sincerity and genuine care they put into my order. I let the cake decorator have creative freedom with the cake because she was very excited to do it! The results were outstanding! Not only is the cake beautiful and customized it was delicious! I am coming here forever to get on my cakes and cookies!

You made my birthday cake day of party?! How? It was amazing! And we were so impressed. A rainbow cookie is hard enough to make, and you knocked it out of the park in cake form. Thank you from me and all my guests that enjoyed it as well. Beautifully done!

My husband picked up a dozen rolls, 6 doughnuts and a tray of cookies. First of all the rolls were so crispy on the outside the crust crumbled off with each bite. Flavorless also, this was the opinion of myself, my daughter and husband. Doughnuts were just ok…Dunkin donuts quality with double the price. On to the cookies…….the most expensive item purchased and they were absolutely disgusting! We each tried numerous flavors and they all had the same bland flavor profile and were so dry they crumbled in your mouth. Huge waste of $67.00, this is not the same Benkerts that was great 20 years ago. They also need to find employees that enjoy helping customers, the girl who helped my husband was not friendly.

Sadly, due to the unwelcoming attitude of the employee who attended us, I have to give this place one star. My girlfriend and I went early in the morning, and it wasn’t busy at all. After the lady finished helping one couple, she came to us with what felt like pure annoyance.

Nothing in the display case was labeled, so we asked simple questions like what certain pastries were or how they were sold. Each time, she sighed, rolled her eyes, or gave short, unpleasant answers as if we were bothering her. Her tone and body language made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome.

When she asked how many we were getting, I said we weren’t sure yet since we were still looking, and she responded with another eye roll and walked off. Even at the register, she seemed irritated, and it looked like she didn’t know the prices or how to use the system.

If you’re not a morning person, maybe don’t work mornings — customers shouldn’t feel like they’re a burden just for asking questions. The pastries themselves were actually great — fresh and tasty — but the service completely ruined the experience. If I hadn’t driven so far, I honestly would’ve left everything there. Unacceptable service.

We are new residents of Centereach and when it came to ordering a cake for our 2 year old birthday party we found this bakery about 5 minutes from us and they did not disappoint. I showed the bakery my vision and they made it happen and not only was the cake beautiful, the taste was just as great (confetti flavor, whip cream filling and buttercream frosting) We had no cake left over and everyone asked where this bakery was located. Definitely a new customer. Communication was great and. I did go in there a few times and every visit was pretty pleasant.

Benkert’s Bakery has out of this world pastries and breads. Unfortunately, the girl helping me was not attentive and got me the wrong cake and never gave me my bread. She “forgot” after asking me if I wanted it sliced!! I also called ahead for my cake, and they didn’t have it ready. If it wasn’t for the delicious baked goods, I wouldn’t go back because of the poor service.
