If you’re hungry, don’t try these cookies — they’re dangerously delicious! You might end up eating the whole box. 😊<br>I believe this is a family-owned business, and you can truly feel the care and quality in every bite. Everything tastes homemade, clean, and comforting — like something you would confidently enjoy at home with your family.<br>The cookies are incredibly fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with attention to detail. It’s always nice to support local businesses that put so much heart into what they do. Highly recommended if you’re looking for delicious treats and a warm, trustworthy experience!

We had the tres leches and bread pudding and it was so delicious! The deserts were just the right amount of sweetness (not too sweet) and we loved both. The owner was also so friendly too.

I finally got a chance to visit Juan Dulce Desserts and WOW this place is an absolute hidden gem! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth and passion behind everything they do. Every dessert tastes fresh, homemade, and made with so much love. You can genuinely tell Juan cares about the quality and creating an experience, not just selling sweets.<br><br>Everything was rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced not overly sweet, just chef’s kiss perfection. The desserts looked beautiful and tasted even better. Juan was also incredibly welcoming and made the whole experience feel personal.<br><br>If you’re in Cliffside Park or anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and stop by. Whether you have a sweet tooth or just want to treat yourself, this spot is 1000% worth it. I already know I’ll be coming back for more! 🍰✨

I found Juan Dulce Desserts based upon their incredible reviews on Google, so I arrived with high expectations....and it delivered even more than I imagined. The desserts were fresh, tasty and creative- base products you would expect in a similar store, but all with more flair and excellent delivery. The greatest and most pleasant surprise was Juan, the owner himself. He was both charming and engaging- we left with belly's full and made a new friend. I will definitely be back, and tell friends about our experience. HIGHLY recommend. Thanks Juan!

What a golden spot this is. The woman who runs the shop is friendly and very attentive. I got 3 Cookies -Snicker Doodle, Double Chocolate , Chocolate Chip Walnut , a Vanilla Crème Brûlée , and a Caramel Almond Bread Pudding warmed up. Everything was absolutely so delicious. The best bread pudding I ever had . I have a major sweet tooth and love good food . This is going to be my new go-to for sweets. Everything I ordered tasted /looked so fresh, I remember she told me she had just baked the snickerdoodles a couple hours ago at the time of my purchase. So delicious, I’m going to share this place with all my friends, and anyone else looking for some sweetness , You need to try here !<br><br>I recommend eating them warmed up in the microwave with a fork , or just as they are .

If you’re looking for your next unforgettable food spot… this is it. ✨<br><br>An incredible dessert destination led by a Michelin-level chef whose creations are nothing short of art. Every bite felt intentional, rich, and completely indulgent.<br><br>We dove into the truffle mac & cheese (pure comfort, elevated), a perfectly cooked ribeye, and chicken & cheese empanadas paired with a dreamy salsa rosado. Everything? Absolutely on point.<br><br>But let’s be real… the *true* star of the show was the dessert board. 🍰🔥<br>Next-level presentation, bold flavors, and the kind of sweet experience you’ll keep thinking about long after you leave.<br><br>Trust me—come hungry, but *definitely* come for the dessert board. 💯<br>#FoodieFinds #DessertLovers #MichelinMagic #WorthIt

Amazing and delicious desserts! Juan, the owner and baker is such a talented chef. Every single item is made to perfection. I tried the freshly baked double chocolate cookie today and is for sure the best I’ve had in the area.

Nice little dessert shop with delicious crème brûlée and key lime pie! The vanilla crème brûlée is not overly sweet, it is more eggy which I like, and has a lovely burnt sugar shell. They also have a passion fruit crème brûlée which I didn’t get to try but will that next time!<br><br>The owner, Juan, is so warm and welcoming! He told us about his backstory and gave us these adorable little key lime pies. The key lime pies are sweet and zesty, you can tell they used real limes in it. I prefer key lime pies with less or no meringue (it’s psychotic, I know) but it was absolutely delicious and I would get it again. Couldn’t find a photo of their key lime pie’s cross section, so here you go!<br><br>They also have a box of 30 mini desserts to-go if you’re hosting a party. Will definitely be coming back!

Absolutely obsessed with Juan Dulce and the JD team!! From beginning to end the experience was 5 stars! Loved the way the menu was presented to us from most popular to least popular. Helped our group decide on what to get without any fuss. We ordered the key lime pie, carrot cake, tres leches and vanilla crème brûlée. Everything was fresh and made that very day. The flavors were rich and you could tell it was made with true love of the craft. Would 100% recommend. Would most definitely order for a party or event.

Response from the owner

Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We're happy you enjoyed the key lime, creme brulee, tres leches and carrot cake. Hope to see you again soon!"

Amazing place!<br>I have tried almost all the desserts and i have never been disappointed , the owner is a great guy and so is he's wife, if your new to he's place he will most likely give you a tour of he's kitchen (most places don't) i wouldn't be shocked if this dessert spot goes viral, the last time i was there he had just gotten a cotton candy machine i felt like a kid again lol<br>Now go and treat yourself with some great deesert.

This is officially our new favorite hot chocolate spot. The hot chocolate is absolutely top tier — rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced. The kind you sip slowly because it’s just that good.<br><br>The cookies are also a win — big, warm, and genuinely tasty. They also offer other desserts that we’re already planning to try next, but the empanadas deserve a special mention because they were really good.<br><br>On top of that, the staff is so sweet and welcoming, which honestly makes the experience even better. Cozy vibes, great desserts, and friendly service. We’ll definitely be back (probably sooner than planned).

First time trying Juan Dulce Dessert and am telling you the reviews don't lie.<br>The place it's small,cozy and you can dine in if you like. We try the chicken and cheese empanadas,super good.the cheese empanada were my fave.The taste it's unique not a regular cheese empanada,to me it tastes like it had ham but it's just cheese super good,is a must try. The tres leches wow super good,nothing like others I have try either super sweet or really saggy. The coffee latte on point and the service was wonderful,you can tell they do everything with love. Also the vanilla ice cream my son order was really good too.Will definitely be coming back to this place and totally recommend stopping by.
