Coffee & Treats in Jersey City

In the 19th century, neighbors would congregate in local bakeries, butcher shops, and candlemakeries to chat about the weekend's brutal turf war and swap Jughead hats. Today's deal gives you a taste of that simpler time: for $7, you get $15 worth of fine, fresh-baked fare at Grandaisy Bakery.

Artopolis' bakers whip up cakes, pastries, and cookies made from traditional Greek and Mediterranean recipes. Glass cases filled with pyramids, rows, and dodecahedrons of fruit- and chocolate-infused tarts entertain visiting eyes, and seven varieties of traditional Greek pastries wait to leap onto sweet teeth. Wooden shelves, standing underneath floral murals, hold woven baskets overflowing with freshly baked and oil-brushed breads. The bakery’s minimalist interior and high ceiling have been custom-built to suit even the longest and most unruly rolling pins.

The brainchild of former Hell's Kitchen contestant Seth Levine, Pop Yogurt serves up decadent yet fat-free cups of soft and smooth frozen yogurt adorned with a unique assortment of toppings. Each cup contains live and active cultures, or probiotics, making it a health-conscious treat despite its potential burial under more than 30 fruits and candies such as red velvet cupcake crumbs, chocolate Pop Rocks, and warm nutella. Also the owner of Georgica, a popular restaurant in East Hampton, Chef Levine occasionally makes appearances at Pop Yogurt's SoHo location, entertaining patrons with stories from his stint on Hell's Kitchen and dispelling rumors that Gordon Ramsay is actually a scarecrow made entirely of copper pots.

When he was only 7 years old, Tonnie's Minis founder Tonnie Rozier started cooking confections alongside his grandmother. As he grew older, he realized baking was more than a childhood pastime, and went on to found an at-home baking business. By 2005, he had so many orders that he quit his job to field ever-growing requests for his sweets. Soon, Tonnie found himself filling orders for all corners of the Big Apple, ranging from everyday Brooklynites to Jay-Z and P. Diddy. Today, he leads his crew of confectioners in hand-crafting a menu of notable cupcakes that have competed on Food Network's Cupcake Wars and nourished the studio audience of The Wendy Williams Show in the moments after a massive food fight.

The shop’s rotating list of flavors includes signature carrot cupcakes made with hand-peeled organic carrots by Tonnie himself and moist red velvet dainties crowned with cream-cheese icing. As the seasons change, the lineup shifts to incorporate flavors that represent the time of year, such as Halloween cupcakes, colorful dainties for spring, and morsels with the date of Secretary's Day written in their frosting.
