In the mood for a freshly baked cake? DO NOT GO TO TIFFANY'S. The employees will tell you the cakes in the showcase are made fresh daily, but this is a flat out lie. Cakes are baked then put in a freezer for a span of about two weeks before they are decorated then put BACK in the freezer for any amount of time. They are taken out and put in the showcase one at a time where they will stay for up to 8 days before they are finally thrown out. The cakes you buy (for around $10 more than you should be paying!) that they say are 'made fresh' actually are about 1 month old. The same process goes for all other pastries, except they will stay in the showcase for over one week. If you don't mind GROSSLY overpriced items and being blatantly LIED to by employees concerning freshness, Tiffany's is the place for you. If you don't like being taken advantage of, find a different bakery.
