Polar Bakery - Lake Worth

Charming little bakery with exquisite cakes and pastries. The princess cake is a must-try! The service is lovely, and parking is convenient.

I moved out of the Lantana area 5 years ago, but I loved the polar bakery. I visited the family in the city and decided to stop to all my favorites only to find the bakery to be drastically different. The quality has gone down instead of the full cases of many different baked goods there were more empty shelves than full. No breads, no rolls, what there were usually cookies, brownies and some other articles. I could get a slice of princess cake I love, and lemon bars I had before Polar. The recipes have changed. The princess cake had not the raspberry jam, the lemon bar that used to be very brownish and solid was more like half-baked jelly with a hint of overly sweet lemon flavor. We couldn't even finish the lemon bar. Besides the lack of product, the bakery as a whole lacked in decoration and cleanliness. The girl behind the counter took forever and completely from one of the items I asked. Only after leaving I read the other reviews online about the new management. This is a shame that they have not kept with the polar tradition and recipes. I'm not back.

I visited the restaurant tonight, just before closing, and decided to try two slices of cake. They were AMAZING! Contrary to some earlier reviews, I found the staff to be very warm and welcoming! They clearly put a lot of care and attention into my cakes. I will definitely be returning!

I'm very disappointed to say that everything has changed at this bakery. The baking staff is obviously different, and it's reflected in the quality and lack of flavor in the products. My two favorite items—the princess cake and the chocolate peanut butter fudge brownies—are now terrible; they taste completely different due to new recipes. If you haven't tasted them from Polar Bakery in the past, you have no idea what you're missing. Unfortunately, my last visit to Polar Bakery today was quite disheartening.

This is my GO TO dessert spot. No kidding, they have the best of the best here at their bakery! If you haven't already you MUST stop by and try one of their delicious desserts and cakes.... Plus they have licorice, swedish candies, coffee, etc. All kinds of things!
