Cassis was opened in 2000 with one major goal. To take the art of pastry and cake making to a new level. After finishing the Culinary Institute of America, the Chef/ Owner Dimitry Tsypkin,
decided that the world of dessert making was lacking passion and creativity that it truly deserves. Hence, making Cassis the home of quality without limits!!!

"Popular with area residents in search of a gourmet cake for a special occasion, Cassis churns out a breathtaking variety of fine pastries. European tortes like the elaborate Charlotte Russe or traditional Havana torte are ideal for haughty affairs, while sinful strawberry shortcake and moist carrot cake are perfect for birthday parties. Pastries like mini hazlenut tarts and chocolate macaroons round out the offerings."

"The pastries at Cassis are always the freshest, the most delicious you'll find. Get the small "petit fours", and you'll be able to sample quite a few. My personal favorite is the "Berthe", named after the chef's mother. This place is also perfect for ordering cakes, as the chef-owner Dmitri Tsypkin will work with you to create just what you need."

"Some have said this bakery is pricey. I say you get what you pay for. At this bakery you get a real butter and creamy textured pastry or cake. The frosting on the cakes is not your standard grocery store sugar emulsified coating. The frosting on these cakes is smooth and silky like butter. The taste from the real chocolate and strawberry fillings is something else.

When my family celebrates a birthday, we ask for our cakes to be purchased at the Cassis Bakery.

Then there is the parfait section. All those lovely little treats. From small pop in your mouth eclairs to cheese cakes to tortes. It really is so hard to eat just one."

"This Bakery is by far the best on the North Shore. The Russian owner Dimitri takes pride in his pastries and cakes. Everything is very tasty, if a bit expensive - but it's totally worth every penny! I also had Cassis bake my wedding cake and ALL  the guests loved it!"

This is one of my FAVORITE bakeries that I've ever been to. French in nature, the pastries are decorated fantastically and are incredibly rich and well made. The coffee is equally wonderful.

There's been more than one occasion where I have stopped off to put together a box of petit fours, marzipans, and tartlettes which have shortly become the topic of conversation when dessert comes to the table.

Lastly, they make porcupines! The very same ones I used to get as a kid when our family friends would return from their holidays in Quebec. Little oval tart shells, filled with a hazelnutty cream, topped with almonds and little chocolate eyes and almond ears. Cute to boot!
