Recommended from a local business that did not want my business and it was the best recommendation ever. Planned a gender reveal party at the last minute for my friend showed them my ideas and since they had very little time to execute some of the ideas I had the owner was pleasant enough to give me others suggestions. At the end the outcome came out stellar. Cake and candies were beautiful and delicious. Their puertorrican rum and brandy recipe is to die for. Staff and ownership are attentive, customer service oriented and passionate about their business. Coffee bar is also excellent. My new favorite place I will be stopping by for my friend's baby shower cake. Well recommended!! read more

What a fantastic place! This warm family-owned business is a demonstration of what I love about Tampa. I went in looking for a special cake to celebrate a promotion, and they worked with me to order the perfect cake for my event. I wanted a Tampa-theme cake that tasted great and had a real "wow" factor. They definitely delivered. I got a cake with three layers--the top was guava, middle was Mexican chocolate, and the bottom was yellow. Buttercream frosting was the perfect compliment. My guests raved about how beautiful and delicious it was. We went back a couple weeks later to try the pound cake and other cupcakes. We came back AGAIN today to pick up some small cakes and cookies to bring to a family event. We always get a couple coffee drinks and they are reliably great. Definitely try this fantastic bakery. Meet Mario the head baker and the rest of this wonderful family, and you will become a happy regular. read more

Was disappointed in this place had high hopes after another baker in town had told me to try there. Cupcake cake part was slightly above average but the icing plain sucked on my strawberry cupcake. It was not even as good as plain whip cream. Tried the fried pound cake which was pretty good and I would consider again if I ever stop by. My son got some kind of package of sprinkled cookies which were hard as a rock and burnt. The 2nd star is for the fried pound cake otherwise it would be a 1* review. For you bakers they had a lot of different sugar decorations for cakes etc so that may be good I do not know. read more

Do you love cake? I might as well as ask you if you like breathing. Cakes Plus makes amazing cake and cupcakes. I pick up a cake every other week for "my wife" and end up splitting it with her. Their Cafe con leche is not very good though, which was a bit disappointing. I can get good cafe con leche anywhere, but not amazing cakes like this! Give it a shot and swing by Wright's Gourmet while you're in the neighborhood. read more

I sent a picture of cake pops for a friends Birthday, they came out great. I will definitely order from here for any future bakery needs.

Ugh!! I'm always on the lookout for good gluten free pastries and cakes. My husband and I stopped into "Cakes Plus" on our way into an establishment next door. When I walked in I was told the only gluten free item they had was a gluten free pound cake (individual size, obviously baked in a muffin tin, placed upside down in the container, bottom side iced). The man told me it was made with this, that and the other type of liquor, which supposedly made it "moist". I paid $6.50 (a lot!) for this pound cake muffin. He told me it was best if I ate it at room temperature. I took it home and was excited to dig in. I took my first bite and I was sooooo disappointed. It had the consistency of sand (no exaggeration) and tasted horrible. I let my husband have a taste. He said "aww, I'm so sorry you ended up with a sand castle". He knew I was looking forward to it, since not many places sell gluten free cakes. This place should NOT sell gluten free cakes if they don't know how to make them, especially for what they charge. I wasted $6.50 of my hard earned money on a horrible, horrible "cake". read more

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Is all we can say. The cake you created for my daughter's baby shower was absolutely gorgeous. Not only was it gorgeous it was delicious.

We are looking forward to working with you for the christening. read more

I called this place from Boston on a Wednesday afternoon for a Saturday delivery of a small cake to the Tampa area. Easy enough right? Wrong. They informed me they can't deliver because the delivery service they use are too busy. Give me a break! Don't go here till they figure out how to run a business correctly. read more

Not only was the cannoli and chocolate pound cake to die for, but the owner and employees are amazing, wonderful, honest people. It was the first time I had ever been there. My sister and I stopped in to check out the selection. I left my purse there with over $500 in case, bank card, ID, etc... When I didn't come back or call right away, they turned it in to the police and I got it back the same day with everything in it. In a world where you hear how awful things are every day, it is so nice to know that there are still honest, compassionate people out there. Thank you so much for the sweet treat and caring enough to turn my purse in. :-) read more

My family and I can't say enough good things about my Grandy's Birthday cake. We chose a pound cake that was beautifully iced. I'd heard amazing things about this cake from my mom and aunt-- they were all true! I will never forget how yummy this cake was. Everyone at the shop was incredibly helpful and friendly and easily personalized the cake for our birthday honorees. We continue to catch each other sneaking bites of the leftover cake around breakfast time. It's just so good! read more

BEST CAKE EVER! I've had cakes all around Tampa for different occasion. Cakes plus is by far the best we've had.

Will return for the baby shower cake! read more

I just want to say how EMBARRASED i am and how unprofesional this was. I ordered a cake with a week of anticipation. The girl who took my order was very nice.Tottal value of my order was $148.00 " i was reinbursed thanks God". I sent a picture of the actual cake i wanted, very specific with the details. When i pick up the cake a week later it was a dissaster. The girls brought out the cake and placed it on the counter and you could tell on their faces that they were surprized on how awful it looked. The first picture is the idea of the cake with out the candy. Second picture is the cake done by Cakes plus on S Dalemabry. I was very upset, The owner came out and spoke to me and tried to tell me that she saw nothing wrong with the cake. I mean is obvious on how terrible this cake looked. She then proceded to offer me a discount and tried to sell it to me for $100. I looked at her and said. I am sorry but this cake looks like my 5 yeard old daughter made it. Keep in mind that the party was ruined because the whole concept of the birthday party is the CAKE!!! Specially the decortions were supposed to be black and gold. I am very dissapointed. I will never go back to Cakes Plus. read more

I've been using cake plus for over 15 years,following them from Kennedy to S.Dale Mabry and now so happy that they are in my own neighborhood of Westchase.

They can make a cake in any shape,flavor and color so beautiful and artistically assembled that you will Wow yourself until you taste it and then you will not know what hit you, beyond blowing your mind with the look,s the taste will knock your out. Don't wait any longer or look any further, try it! read more

Hi all, Cake Plus in Tampa prepared my birthday son's cake. I chose the specialty of the house. Puerto Rican cake with a special flavor. It was delicious and it looks really nice. My children and his workmates enjoyed this cake a lot. Thank you Cake Plus in Tampa. PD: Next time just open the door when we have the big box with the cake or help the client to take the box to the car. It is just a little touch of "Excelencia en el Servicio" The cake was really worthy..... XPedroza read more

The cake looked amazing, until I noticed the name was wrong. I was met with a blank stare, with no emotion at all. She was the person who took the order at the beginning of the week. She double checked to make sure the name was on the order (like that mattered) and it WAS ordered correctly. She said asked the other person taking a cake order to assist her in fixing the name. After a 40 minute wait, the two people in the shop working "attempted" to erase the name on white icing, used a different color icing to write on a smeared background. It looked terrible and unprofessional. I said it was unacceptable and asked the girl to reach out to the owners. After another disappearing act in the back for 15 mins, she said they were out on deliveries and could not take a call. I told her the party was on Sunday and I could meet the cake decorator back in the morning. Just a blank stare again and said she would see what they wanted to do. She just wanted me to take the cake and a small box of 4 petite fours for the problem and leave, she would call me after she reached the owners. 2 phone calls after I left the shop she said I needed to text her a picture, which I did, however the number provided was a land line and the shop was closed. Never did I hear back from Cakes Plus. I am very disappointed in their service. I served an unprofessional, expensive cake at a party for my grandbaby. How embarrassing. I used them for other birthdays and for my daughter's wedding, but never had a problem. I would give them 0 Stars if that was a choice. Rude and unprofessional. read more
