Cheese cake is a must. Butter and choc cookies are the best.

My mother ordered a cake for my daughter’s 2nd birthday this past weekend (during the snow storm, too!). She placed the cake order just 24 hours in advance. We told them the theme colors were rose gold and that’s really it. I was blown away when I saw how beautiful the cake was. The decorations, the colors, everything was absolutely perfect. We will definitely be back in a couple months for my sons birthday!

I graduated high school in 1994 and my grandmother provided the cake for my party. That cake came from Herman's. When my sister got engaged and had a wedding shower, that cake came from Herman's. While I have been Dundalk Strong my entire life, when I found my independence and moved to Old Dundalk and needed a special dessert, I went to Herman's. When my boyfriend found his birth family, and his newfound niece had surgery, we took her a small strawberry shortcake. Last week, when my beloved group of friends decided to get together for... I actually can't remember and that's such a wonderful feeling because we get together so often that sometimes the events run together... oh right, just a random group/family dinner... we got a smearcase. Did you know that smearcase is a Baltimore delicacy? "Smearcase is a traditional American cheesecake variety originating from Baltimore, Maryland. The base for the cake is usually made with a combination of flour, baking powder, sugar, oil, eggs, and salt; while the custardy filling is usually made with a combination of cream cheese, sugar, milk, flour, vanilla, and eggs. As a final touch, smearcase is dusted with cinnamon before serving. When compared with standard American cheesecakes, smearcase should have a lighter and less sugary flavor, while the crust is more cake-like. It's usually cut into large rectangular pieces before serving." We didn't have it with cinnamon though. We went across the street to Aldi and bought some blackberries. It was a huge hit. The thing about Herman's is... when I go inside and I see how much of the space isn't in use, I get the feeling that it's best years are behind them. When people can get pretty much any dessert in a supermarket bakery, independently owned places struggle to make the sales, which means they struggle to hire employees, which means they have less product, which means half the store is empty. And this is a shame. And I may have only been here for the smearcase, but have you had the marshmallow donuts? The black bottoms? They're famous for that strawberry shortcake, and it's not even expensive. Please, please duck into this place. You are sure to find something wonderful. Don't wait until it's a special occasion. Any day that you buy a dessert here will be special. Go. Go now.
Hermans Bakery and Catering has been around for a while, and this old-school bakery offers various cakes, custom cakes, cupcakes, strawberry shortcakes, baked goods, etc. We stopped by after having lunch in the area, as we saw that the lot was full. We picked up: +a glazed twist doughnut - this was okay; probably best when you go there for fresh ones in the early A.M. +Boston cream doughnuts - this was delicious - nice chocolate frosting with a generous amount of cream inside +a seasonal decorated Santa gingerbread cookie - loved how this cookie looked! The gingerbread cookie wasn't bad either, with a nice spiciness to it +a strawberry shortcake - the strawberries were still slightly frozen, but the cake itself was pretty tasty; they do use a lot of whipped cream! There was already a wrap-around line inside, but it moved quickly. Staff were friendly and efficient! Private lot available for your vehicle. +good treats +seasonal items +friendly & efficient service

The lady who waited on me was so sweet she really made my day. She took her time making me fresh chocolate covered strawberries and wrapped the box with a nice bow.

I ordered a cake for my 5 year old daughter. They neglected to put an image I requested for a "custom" cake I paid double for what I pay elsewhere. The cake was a disappointment for her. It didn't taste good either. 2 pieces were wasted and the rest of the cake will get thrown away. Doesn't taste good at all! A box cake is much better than this 1/4 sheet cake for $50!!! I was totally ripped off and extremely upset with this business. They didn't seem to care when I mentioned it either.
