"This Bryant Park cake boutique got its start 12 years ago when founder Ken Romaniszyn set out to open a pastry shop that fused Asian flavors (Romaniszyn is half-Japanese) with classic French technique. From there, Lady M's now-iconic mille crepes cake was born, a cloud-like confection that layers 20-plus paper-thin rounds with airy whipped cream. Flavors range from classic vanilla to green tea to seasonal offerings like passion fruit, all of which are -- in true Japanese tradition -- subtly sweet." - https://www.thrillist.com/

"If you've been to a birthday party in New York in the last few years, you have almost certainly seen, and possibly eaten, one of Christina Tosi's now-iconic "naked" unfrosted birthday cakes. It's essentially a status cake, but it also happens to taste like the pastry-chef version of childhood: Tosi's team soaks the cake in milk and vanilla extract and bakes sprinkles, Funfetti style, right into the batter. The rainbow-cake crumble on top is an A-plus garnish, too." - http://www.grubstreet.com

"Despite being housed in an unassuming Queens strip mall, Cannelle is serious business when it comes to French pastries and American-style pies and cakes. French-born pastry chef Jean-Claude Perennou and his Sri Lankan-born partner, Gnanasampanthan Sabaratratnam (known as "Samba"), met at work at the Waldorf Astoria and opened this popular patisserie in 2007. Their international staff caters to an international and exacting clientele that crowds in on weekends for expertly executed croissants, chocolate eclairs and mango-kiwi tarts. Cannelle is also the go-to bakery in the area for exquisite wedding, anniversary and sweet 16 cakes." - https://www.nycgo.com/restaurants/
