Cakes by Nerwan is a must-visit cupcake and coffee shop in New York. This women-owned family business is the brainchild of Pastry Chef Nerwan Khalife, who has established her first brick and mortar location. The shop offers an extensive range of delectable treats that are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth cravings.

Their Banana Pudding is a fan favorite and for good reason - it's absolutely delicious! Their Naked cake with a floral upgrade is also worth trying. If you're looking for something refreshing, their fresh fruit tarts are a perfect choice.

The shop also offers bottled lemonade, which is perfect for hot summer days. They have recently started hiring part-time counter persons, so if you're interested in joining their family, send your resume to [email protected].

Overall, Cakes by Nerwan is a fantastic place to indulge in some mouth-watering treats while enjoying a cup of coffee. The Khalife sisters are doing an excellent job of keeping their customers happy with their scrumptious offerings.
