Absolutely loved this place! Their cakes taste super good, moist, rich, and full of flavor. The Pistachio Tres Leches and hot Vietnamese coffee are absolute must-try… easily one of the best desserts I’ve had in Utica.
I also appreciate that you can ask for halal options, which makes it even better for me.
Great service, cozy vibe, and amazing desserts. Highly recommend! Oh one thing, don’t forget to check their Facebook or Google map for business hours before you go there.

I happened to find this cute bakery while traveling for work. The minute I walked in it felt warm and inviting. Everybody is friendly and welcoming. Mersiha came out from the kitchen to greet me and have a chat. She even remembered my name when I went back for a second visit. She, and her family, clearly love what they do! The Turkish coffee was incredible and the pastries were delicious. I would recommend this bakery to anybody looking for a sweet treat. I will definitely be back.

One of our absolute favorite places, not just in Utica, but of all time. Coffee drinks are delicious, the food is INCREDIBLE and any dessert we’ve ever had has been nothing short of perfection. My husband and I will literally drive the 2 hours from Binghamton just to eat here. The first time we went, my husband had a heart procedure in Utica and we went to Yummilicious for dinner afterwards. The staff was so kind and attentive (seeing him all bandaged and bruised) and we did not lack for anything. Beautiful people, beautiful place.

Utica is extremely fortunate to have this Cafe and Bakery. A unique experience, it was featured by Savior Faire Magazine! Mershia Omeragic is a true artist, creating the most exquisite works of art using: fruit, sugar, butter, and a huge dose of love. Her husband -a graduate of MVCC’s well-respected Culinary School of Cooking provides original interpretations of our favorite dishes. The portions are huge. The homemade soups and bread are out of this world. Their lattes and appetizers and healthy breakfast offerings have a European flair, and make it hard for me to get a seat at the cafe on a Saturday morning. While I happily wait, chatting with all the fabulous customers that adore this experience, I feel as though I have entered into an enchanted garden of flavors, and sights, and smells. My grandfather came here as an immigrant from Malta. My great-grandmother from Ireland. Utica is a city that was built by immigrants, and has been rebuilt by our present day immigrant population. They continue to enrich all of our lives, and this great city which has benefited enormously from this legacy that gives Utica it’s soul.

My friends and I visited for the first time this summer, and it was an incredible experience. We were impressed not only by the delicious food and desserts, but also by how genuinely welcoming the staff were. Everyone greeted us with a smile, and it truly felt like they cared about making sure every customer had a great visit. I always recommend that people give your restaurant a try!

WOW! Truly the best place I have ever gone to! I was looking for food and something sweet and I found something that hit that craving hard! First of all, the staff were phenomenal, the guy Izzy made the experience so personal and recommended the Nutellalatte, man am I happy for it! Truly the best one of a kind drink I’ve had in this area! The kinder bueno cake tastes JUST LIKE a kinder bueno! And the Moroccan chicken bowl I had for dinner (forgot to take a photo- too yummy) was truly so yummy and tender! It reminds me of my trip to Morocco! So good! The owner was so sweet, she told me her story on the desserts and her journey to this business, what a strong woman with a beautiful story and contagious laugh! Also, the Dubai Chocolate was truly the best I’ve had, AND I’VE HAD MANY! Like the food here, everything is so cheap! The quality is so good and so yummy and I am definitely coming back to support this sweet little family!

Consistently delicious.
The bakery items are perfect. From her Tres Leche Cakes to the best baklava I’ve ever had, there is always something new to try.
The specialty coffees are unique and a labor of love by the fabulous barristas.
Than there is the delicious food.

I ordered the most beautiful tres leches cakes for a graduation party last June. 125 people LOVED the cake and even though I over ordered there was none left. The shop is so beautiful and sweet and Mersiha the owner is an absolute treasure. Communication was excellent. Three people helped me safely get the cakes into my car—see photo with ice packs. I couldn’t give a higher recommendation.
