    Have been coming to this bakery for years, since I first opened. They are know for their Portugese Custard Cups, which only a few years ago where 65 cents.  The custard cups are now $1.10 which is not bad, but the quality of the custard is no longer as food. The new custard cups are more like a gelatin cup.....nothing like custard now.

    Now not to say that the bakery is not wonderful. The decor is nice, the service is good with both wait staff and counter service.

    With regard to the pastry, I highly recommend the canoli which is excellent but expensive at $2.65 each. Just last year the canoli price was $1.75. It seems everytime I stop in the prices have gone up drastically.

    Right now the best value for taste and price is the tiramisu at a price of $2.60 for a fairly large piece.

    Another annoying thing is that none of the pastries are labeled with a price, which makes for a rude awakening at the register. I would rather know ahead of time.

    Other than that, great place!
    Good Eats!

    Nice to find a Bakery & Cafe open this late(9 pm).  Walking inside with a Bakery/Cafe setting of the European atmosphere but not over the top.  

    There's not much Menu/Menu-boards/Descriptions which made selecting an item for a Caldense noob a bit difficult.  That's why I didn't know "Custard Tarts" where their specialty until I saw it on their Truck driving away.

    I got a Cappuccino($2.48) which they note using Sical Brand.  The Apple Square($1.95) was written on the receipt as Quadrado Maca.  Both were very enjoyable.  Notice the FOAM on my Cappuccino like a Snow Mountain.
