A reliable go-to when you need something special and don't want to settle for the grocery store bakery.

Overview

Dolce Cupcakery is a specialty bakery at 50 State Street, Building R, in Pittsford, NY, near the Schoen Place stretch along the Erie Canal. Owner Lisa Polvino, a Rochester native and graduate of Geneseo and Nazareth colleges, opened the shop in 2014. She personally bakes each item offered in the shop, which has since provided desserts for more than 1,200 weddings across the Rochester and Finger Lakes region.

What They Offer

The bakery's core lineup centers on cupcakes in standard, mini, and jumbo sizes, with five always-available flavors — Signature Vanilla, Signature Chocolate, Mama Bear, Cookies & Cream, and Peanut Butter Bliss — plus a rotating seasonal selection that changes monthly. Beyond cupcakes, the menu includes:

  • Custom cakes and pull-apart cakes
  • Cake pops and truffles
  • Cannoli and Italian cookies
  • Floral cupcake bouquets
  • Wedding tasting boxes

Gluten-free and vegan cupcakes are available as regular menu items, and the bakery is listed by the Greater Rochester Celiac Support Group as a local resource for gluten-free options. Online ordering is available for both pickup and local delivery.
