    Chocolate cake

    This is the BEST chocolate cake I have ever had. The icing was incredible, the cake moist and delicious. The service was unbeatable! Christen was so accommodating and helpful. She came through in a last minute situation and saved the day!

    I would give this cake 100 stars. If you are coming to Charleston be sure to pre order a cake. We ordered chocolate/chocolate and red velvet. For a nominal amout order three layers! Check out her website for pricing. This is worth the drive into CHS even if you are staying close by. This cake was old school, homemade cake! So delicious! If you're only getting one, order chocolate!

    The cake was amazing and perfectly Chocolate for my husband who loves chocolate. We live in El Paso but had the party in Charleston and the baker communicated very well to ensure the cake was done in perfect time.

    The best chocolate cake i've EVER HAD! This is a must for my friends and I to get for each others birthdays! Every single person who's ever tried it has been hooked - including guests we've had that said they don't usually like cake / chocolate cake! It's fudgey and just amazing, usually i don't like frosting but hers is amazing! And they are made by the sweetest woman in the most adorable downtown house if you have any celebration, this is the best you can get in charleston!! if you tell her the occasion, she will add sprinkles for birthdays if you'd like!

    I'm not sure I can describe how perfect this chocolate cake is!!! As a baker myself I am often disappointed by dry and lacking baked goods but this cake...well this may be the best cake I've ever had and our table agreed. The perfection and balance of moisture to this chocolate cake leave an aftertaste that will not let you put your fork down let's just say!! Thank you chocolate cake Charleston for getting this to me!!! We were in awe!!!

    As a local wedding planner, I have tried PLENTY of cakes around town with my clients...and I can say hands-down that Christen makes one of the most delicious chocolate cakes I have ever had! Not only is the chocolate cake good, but her red velvet and almond cakes are also AMAZING! They are so moist and flavorful! Not only do her cakes taste amazing, but Christen is one of the nicest people to deal with. She has made last-minute orders for many of my clients (and myself!) You can't go wrong using Chocolate Cake.

    The best!  Moist cake with fudge frosting. It couldn't have been better.

    The chocolate cake was so moist and the frosting was fudgy. I ordered ahead of time for friends' birthdays and the cake lived up to the 5 star reviews. I hate ordering chocolate cake at restaurants because it's dry and usually has a mousse like frosting. If you want pure chocolate goodness without sickening sweetness this is the baker for you!

    Cake, don't forget milk!

    If you like Chocolate Cake, there is nothing as awesome as Christen's cakes from Chocolate Cake Charleston. Great for a special event or any time. Fluffy and light with an unbelivable frosting, these are the best ever! Customer service is over the top, no issue on special orders or needs. Order and have it shipped if you want, I did. Sent it cross country and it arrived on time, perfect and ready to go. Make sure you follow the unpacking directions. You can't go wrong, and will always do right with Chocolate Cake Charleston!

    Pure deliciousness! Chocolate cake inside and out!

Iced coffee was refreshing I came back the next morning for another round. It was flavorful yet not sugary.

Although I was charged twice, the manager assured me they would fix it once the line was manageable. Somehow I trusted her word for it, just the manner with which she handled it was text book! Indeed, saw the overcharged taken care of by the next day. A must stop in downtown historic Charleston for sure! Great awesome pastries, sandwiches Parisian style made and clean refreshing breakfast beverages.

The crossiant was light and fluffy and not too overly buttery.

Reminds me of something I could get in Europe, but American style. Baked goods were equally delicious: croissant, almond cake and something claw in the name. Although there was a line, we didn't mine waiting. It moved fairly quick - about a 15 minute wait on a Subway holiday weekend I didn't think was too bad given the amazing food. The person who took our order was exceptionally sweet as we were from out town and she helped us choose. When our order came out it was beautifully presented in to-go containers. Worth the wait and price !!

Luckily, we were able to be seated immediately but it was very close quarters with surrounding tables. The menu is vast with different dessert options. If you want to know what cakes are available, you should check out the display stand right when you enter. Since we were there 2.5 hours before closing, there didn't seem to be a lot of cake options available, but my husband and I decided to share a slice of the s'mores cake with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream to make it à la mode. The s'mores cake was a chocolate cake with mini marshmallows, chocolate fudge, graham crackers, and more marshmallows. The cake was good and had everything I could ever want in it, but it was a little dry. I think this also had to do with it being the end of the night. The ice cream complemented the flavor well. It would have been better with a second scoop of ice cream though. Service was great! It took about 10 minutes from when we ordered to get our dessert. I would probably come back here again, but not so late at night so there would be fresher cake with more options available.
