It was their signature vanilla pound cake and extraordinary Buttercream icing. My greatness!! It was absolutely amazing. And when I learned the bakery was less than 5 miles away in Drexel Hill, that was the cherry on top! I had two friends that I was celebrating soon and I went online the next day to request a custom cake. ChatGPT and I worked on the image to bring the WOLFPACK theme together and I ordered chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream... again... Ahhhhmazing!! The ladies who waited on me were super friendly and provided fantastic service. I'll be placing another order for a custom cake very soon. You can also purchase individually wrapped slices of cake, cheesecake, and cupcakes. You should definitely TREAT (not cheat) yourself! Njoy

The initial cake design…read morewas a little out of my budget so the designer worked with me to select another design within my budget. It was exactly as pictured. The cake is a pound cake so it is very dense. I would recommend for cake needs in the Philly area.

I've had Crumbs in NYC and Sprinkles in Orange County (among many others), trust me... neither can hold a candle to Kookenbacker. Kookenbacker offers rich and moist, unique cupcakes that are a steal at under $3. A couple of my favorites: Calling Elvis - banana cake peanut butter icing and baconbrittle sprinkles Malibu Snowball - coconut cake malibu infused butter cream rolled in coconut Salty Caramel - chocolate cake filled with gooey milk caramel carmel frosting and a sprinkle of black Hawaiian sea salt They're on Facebook and post a weekly menu w/ pics

Frozen. But still bought them even though every part of us was saying "take a pass". I wish we had listened to ourselves. After thawing and warming them up, they still were not even close to the knishes Mitch used to make on Castor Ave. The kernels in the rice knish were so hard and uncooked, they literally fell out of the dough. The cheese was indescribable, the pizza was not good; the potato was edible. The big chocolate chip cookie was missing something and it was a little hard. Sorry to say that we won't be returning.

Butter cookies so dry that they must have forgot butter is an ingredient, rugelach that was so hard that you could use it as a hammer, twists that could chip your teeth, and a bobka so dry that it took two cups of coffee just to force down a slice. I used to go to best cake all the time and was never disappointed, but their offerings are now disgusting, dry, and below the level of even the worst supermarket bakery.
