**GLUTEN FREE REVIEW** My family has been getting bakery items from Chantel's for years for special events. My sweet 16 birthday cake was from Chantel's and it was amazing. For my sister's bridal shower this past weekend we ordered both the regular and the gluten free cupcakes. They were amazing, I didn't feel like I was missing out by not being able to eat the regular cupcakes because they tasted so good. They were chocolate with vanilla icing and beautiful blue sprinkles that matched our decor. They were a great addition to the party, and everyone said they were delicious! read more

Wonderful Baker! Amazing cakes! Best ever and highly recommend. We are a pn tn allergy family and have been looking for safe cakes for quite some time. We found cake love in Chantel's! Cake is moist, delicious and high quality. And most of all... it was safe for our 5 ye old peanut tree nut allergy family. We are already planning the next reason to get a cake from Chantel's. read more

The coconut macaroons were brought to an event I worked this past week and OMG - I would've taken a photo BUT they were soo good I inhaled them all instantly. Just speaking off the quality and size of the white/chocolate dipped macaroons really makes me want to keep this as a place I purchase a cake from for the next family occasion. Looks like others also rate their quality positively. read more

The cake, the owner, the service....this place delivered on all levels!!! I had ordered a diabetic cake most recently and it was absolutely delicious! Super moist, light and tasty. It did not raise sugar levels so this was the most important factor! The fact that they deliver nationwide is a plus for all diabetics in the country! I highly recommend!!!!! read more

I have used Dennis now 4-5x for amazing and delicious cakes! He just did one for a baby shower and it was the best ever! So many compliments from everyone at the baby shower on his gorgeous cake design. Dennis is the best!!!! read more

Chef Dennis is an amazing Chef. We placed an order for a cake and Chef Dennis was able to take the picture that we shared and create an master piece. The end product was a work of art. Everyone ended asking about who is this genius. Chef Dennis - thanks for what you do. You are amazing!! read more

Not impressed. Called to order a cake for my event and asked for sample pictures. I was told they don't provide sample pictures of cake designs and that I should, instead, send pictures of the type of cake I am looking for to the business's email address. I sent an email with a cake design and then a follow-up email with a different cake design, seeking separate price quotes on both. The following day, I only received a price quote for one of the cake designs. Not ideal but I was okay with that since that was the cake design I preferred. I tried to follow up by asking Chef Dennis additional questions such as how many inches the cake would be and to confirm the filling that would be used. However, I was met with silence. I even replied again and copied and pasted the message that I thought may have been missed. However, it's been almost a week and I still haven't received a response to my email. With time running out, I tried to call the shop but no one would answer. I finally decided to take my business to another local bakery since my event was just around the corner. My advice: save yourself the hassle and go elsewhere. read more

Chef Dennis delivered the most beautiful and tasty diabetic cake I could have hoped for!!! Thank you guys for such a wonderful treat!!!

I have to agree with a previous review around responsiveness on placing and order. It made me super nervous about using the bakery and by the time they called me back I already placed my order elsewhere. I reached out on Monday for a Saturday pick up. It would have been ok to tell me on Monday that it was too late notice. But I may have dogged a bullet here based on some of the previous reviews. So bottom line would be to look elsewhere for "last minute" orders. I must commend the owner for being more prompt to respond to this review versus my potential order. read more

The delivery of the cake was on time for the cook out and the cake looks AMAZING! Can't wait to try it, I am sure it tastes as good as it looks. :) Thank you Chantel's for an awesome service. read more

Chantel's Bakery - That's the cake! On the phone , I gave the words, but the chef has taken initiative to decorate it and create this piece of art.Thank you! - Cupcakes Near Me - Sterling, Virginia

Chef Dennis is a true artist and professional! He kindly agreed to create our daughter's dream cake for her high school graduation celebration only 4 days before her party. The cake turned out better than we could ever have expected and made our daughter's day even more special. Thank you Chef Dennis! read more

STOP LOOKING. BUY YOUR CAKES HERE. I discovered Chantel's at an event (had one of their cupcakes) and I'm hooked! Chantel's is now my go-to for cakes for all occasions, especially if you are allergy sensitive. They customize your order just how you like and deliver on time, with impeccable service. Crazy tasty! Love, love, love. Can't say enough great things about Dennis and the team there. read more

This place is amazing! Yesterday at work I learned that our team was going to be celebrating Pie day today. I called Chantel's sometime in the late afternoon and the woman on the phone was SO helpful. I don't think I've ever ordered from a bakery and I don't have much preference when it comes to Pie. Much to my surprise (because I ordered so late), I was able to pick up at 7am this morning on my way to work and the Chef was very friendly and his shop smelt like heaven. Needless to say, everyone LOVED their pies- we got strawberry and blueberry with a glaze on top (YUM). I am very much looking forward to returning to Chantel's to try more of these sweet treats. read more

Chantel's Bakery is absolutely amazing, I ordered a cake for my aunt 75th birthday virtual party, she live in Virginia and I live in Miami, Florida. I wanted the cake to be amazing since this was my first time I am order a custom cake. I give the man a lot of stress :), I wanted to see how the cake would look a week before the virtual party, I call him several times, he was so kind and nice on the phone, the week of the party, he told me he will start baking it 3:00 am in the morning, :). I stop calling. When my aunt saw the cake she loved it, it was AMAZING!!! she said it was absolutely divine and delicious. I wish you can see how AMAZING the cake looked. Thank to Chantel's Bakery for such great service. read more

Chantel's made possibly the best birthday cake I've ever had in my life. My boyfriend and I are long distance right now and he ordered me a cake from them for my birthday since we can't be together for it. Chantel's went above and beyond to make sure the cake was special. Their cake was wonderfully fluffy and absolutely delicious, and I love their commitment to making sure those with dietary restrictions can also have their cake. Will be ordering from them again! read more

I attempted to order from this bakery based on positive feedback from my boss. I contacted the bakery SEVERAL times and never heard anything back from them. I would have loved to use them for our wedding and family events but the lack of Communication is alarming. God Bless! read more

I have ordered a cake and 8 cannolis for my BFs Birthday. I arrived to pick up the cake and was welcomed by chef Denis himself. He showed me a very pretty birthday cannoli cake with two little cannolis as decorations. He was worried that the box for the cannolis was two big so he threw in two cupcakes. Everything was just delicious. Everyone at the party asked where was the cake from and at least two people stated that they will be having their business. Well, we will be coming back too! read more

My significant other and I drove to Chantel's Bakery and were surprised to find it was a commercial kitchen as opposed to a retail store-front. However, the staff warmly greeted us and explained the type of service offered. We thanked them for their kindness and turned to leave when were asked when did we need a cake? I responded that we didn't want a cake but wanted cupcakes. In response, we were told cupcakes were available. We ordered three yellow cakes with chocolate frosting and one chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. As we waited for the cupcakes to be frosted, the chef of Chantel's entered, introduced himself and made conversation. When asked how we learned of Chantel's, we advised that we searched online for a bakery and the reviews were good. Once our cupcakes were ready, we were given two decorated shortbread cookies and told our order was at no charge. We thanked them for their generosity and left. Upon arriving home, we tried the yellow cupcakes with chocolate frosting. My significant other liked his but thought the flavor could have been better, he absolutely loved that the frosting was light and not too sweet. After I removed the liner from my cupcake, I saw something white on the cake. When I removed it, it was an egg shell. Against my better judgement, I took a few bites and I crunched on egg shells several times. My S.O. did not experience the same with either of his cupcakes, so I decided to try the chocolate cake with chocolate frosting cupcake but I kept expecting to crunch on egg shells. Although egg shells were not in my second cupcake, I could not enjoy it. The cupcake was okay but would have been great if it was more moist and rich in flavor. My S.O. and I both thought the shortbread cookie was awful; it was hard and bland. We like to support small businesses and wish Chantel's Bakery every success. read more

Chantel's Bakery has the most outstanding customer service I have seen for a very long time! I was searching everywhere in the VA, MD and DC area for a bakery to make dairy free chocolate eclairs for a birthday! They not only tested a month ago to make sure they would be perfect, wrote special message and even went above and beyond to personally deliver over an hour away because I was having problems getting there! They are absolutely amazing and I can't thank them enough for doing this! I would recommend them 150% to everyone and definitely a long term customer! Thank thank thank you Chantel's for all you did and I so greatly appreciate it!!!!!! read more

A wedding is one of the most important events in one's life. I needed a gluten-free cake for my son's wedding. I spoke to Brenda who sent me pictures of several cakes to choose from. I chose the first one below with the pink flowers on it. Brenda asked what color flower did I want and I said purple. No mention that they don't do real flowers (although most all their wedding cakes have real flowers on them). Well the second picture is what I got. I was SO disappointed. All Chef said was sorry that was what was on the order and that I could just go get some flowers like I had all the time in the world that day. The only saving grace was the fact that I was able to fix it and the cake tasted good. I would not recommend this place based on the fact that they misrepresented their services. read more

What a great baker. In 24 hours I was able to order a 1/4 sheet cake with special decorations at a price that kills the competition. The flavors are amazing and the frosting will send you over the edge. This is my new go-to cake baker! Outstanding! read more

Dennis always comes through in a pinch, I needed 3 dozen cupcakes the same day and he more than delivered. All beautiful, all scrumptious, and even took the time to create a Lacrosse logo for me on the spot. He will always be my go to! read more

Chantel's Bakery makes The. Most .Divine. Gluten-Free Cheesecake imaginable, and with blueberry topping, PERFECT. I just picked up my third gluten-free cheesecake (with blueberries and apricot glaze) and was able to buy some cupcakes at the last minute. Orders are always ready on time, filled even at the last minute and extraordinary in every way. Everything tastes better than it looks, and it looks FABULOUS. I am so happy I discovered these gluten-free treats for my daughter. Now it's the only thing she ever wants for her birthday cake! read more

Thank you Dennis and Chantels bakery!!! I called to get a custom cake made for my nephew whose birthday was the next day. I asked for a very specific design and theme, needless to say Dennis delivered as promised in terms of looks and went beyond in terms of taste. Cake was super moist and had a wonderful chocolate flavor with fresh raspberries. Highly recommend! read more

Very disagreeable chef: I tried to work out a bad situation our and all he wanted to do is scream He took the money of a single mother and did not deliver the promised cake. He took the cake back and never returned the money read more

Chef Dennis makes the BEST cakes! I've been eating his cakes since 2008, when the company I worked for used them for monthly birthday cakes. Currently, I live in Maryland and travel to Sterling for cupcakes and just cakes for the house lol. Chef Dennis makes vegan cakes, dairy, and sugar free cakes. And they ARE AMAZING. I've probably gained a few extra pounds due to these cakes, but it's all worth it. If I can travel 40 miles for a cupcake, you know it has to be a good cupcake. read more

My dairy and soy free order was made available in an hour and a half!! Wife's birthday and you all know how busy we get! Dennis was able to make these available to me with absolute excellence! I will continue to bring my business to him read more

Chantel's Bakery - The Boston Cream Cake! It's as delicious as it looks! - Cupcakes Near Me - Sterling, Virginia

****I do not recommend for special diet orders!!**** He implied that it was the persons fault that they couldn't eat eggs. He is VEGAN. Plus, we received 11 with no explanation. He explained that there were only 11 because there were made without eggs. But I had to call to get the explanation. He also didn't say sorry or offer to make more or a partial refund. I am very disappointed because it was over $5 a cupcake and they weren't even edible. Overall, poor customer service experience. read more

This place is AMAZING!! I called with only 24 hours notice to order 150 custom cookies with an image and text. The first 2 bakeries that I called laughed at me. Brenda and Dennis of Chantel's didn't bat an eye. They worked with my text and image and created 150 amazing custom cookies. They were individually wrapped tied with ribbon matching the image on the cookie. They made me look like a pro!! Their customer service is second to none!! Please use this awesome bakery! read more

Chef Dennis is excellent to work with and willing to listen and give his honest opinion on cake designs you are thinking of. He made our daughters 16th birthday cake this past weekend from a Pinterest picture I had seen. It was spot on; on colors and design plus the cake was absolutely delicious and all our guests loved and complemented how tasty it was. The birthday girl was the first to taste and comment which was even better. So glad we made the choice to go with Chantel's bakery. Thank you Chef Dennis !! read more

Chef Dennis baked my daughter's wedding cake this past Sat, 1/30 and needless to say, all the guests loved it!

From the very beginning, Chef Dennis was professional and detailed on what we wanted. I presented a picture of the cake and he replicated it well! I was so impressed by his professional service and he just has a good product! I would highly recommend Chantel's Bakery and definitely will continue to use his services and refer others! Job well done Chef Dennis!!!! read more

My family has been ordering from Chantel's for over 20 years - including my own wedding cake- and we have always been pleased with the results. However, I want to give a special shout out for our most recent order. We had decided to celebrate my mom's 60th birthday by delivering champagne and dessert to 30 of her closets friends and then hopping on a zoom call for a toast. Dennis was able to create 30 beautiful 6inch cakes in her favorite flavor, decorate them beautifully and have them ready for delivery early on a Saturday morning. The love and dedication to his product is evident and I'm still getting messages from our friends asking where they can get this cake- really! I'm including some pictures to show you what an operation this really was (we made totes full of party favors and the bottles of champagne, and delivered all over the DMV area with the beautiful little cakes). Dennis was so flexible and accommodating and it made my mom's special day so wonderful! read more
