I just happened to be in Hoboken, NJ trying to retrieve a lost item that I left on New Jersey Transit and as I was leaving I turned the corner and noticed that there was no line to get into Carlo’s Bake Shop. The last time I visited Carlo’s, owned by The Cake Boss, the line was a couple of very long blocks long and it took me an hour and a half just to get to the door.
Luckily I was the passenger in the car…so I didn’t have to deal with parking. I jumped out and was able to walk right in. There was a little bit of a crowd inside the bakery. But compared to last time, the wait wasn’t too long. It was definitely worth it. I purchased a couple of chocolate cannoli’s and biscotti biscuits. What I like so much about this place is that their treats are not overly sweet…delicious yes but not sugary sweet. Best chocolate covered cannoli’s I have ever had!
