I recently visited Plant Cakes Bake Shop and I was genuinely blown away. As someone who doesn't…read morealways expect gluten free and vegan desserts to taste this good, this place completely exceeded my expectations. They offer a variety of cupcakes, cookies, and donuts, all plant based and gluten free, and everything I tried was incredible. The donuts especially stood out. I honestly didn't know a vegan donut could taste this amazing. They were soft, fluffy, perfectly sweet, and packed with flavor. Not dry or dense at all, just absolutely delicious. Whether you follow a vegan or gluten free diet or just love a great dessert, this bakery is 100 percent worth a visit. You would never guess these treats are vegan and gluten free. Highly recommend.

I decided to go with a cupcake variety. You don't get to pick what kinds you want. It's whatever they are baking that week, which worked fine. Half a dozen cupcakes are around $20, so I got four of them for $80, which was the right amount for 18 people, with leftovers. Do note that the website calls them "party size". I didn't know what that meant, so I called. It means regular size, which was a good thing at that price LOL. I was glad party size wasn't mini ones. Loved that I was able to order them via their website in advance. They were nicely boxed and ready for me when I arrived Saturday morning to pick them up. Easy breezy. And they were a hit unlike previous vegan cakes I've bought in the past from other places. I asked them to remind me what flavors they were and she suggested I take pics so I could let our guests know. So the attached pics show the yummy flavors.

I just needed a small cake in the shape of a baked potato! I had already tried Sweetheart Treats amazing cupcakes and other treats, so I knew they would give me a flavorful and moist cake, but I didn't know what a thoughtful, incredible job they would do! I ordered a custom cake less than a week before it was needed, and they emailed me back immediately with pricing and options, saying that my idea made them laugh and they could do it. This baked potato cake was such a joy to order and receive! The baker told me that she also loves baked potatoes as much as my brother, and she was so excited to work on this cake. I showed her some basic pictures and she DELIVERED. This cake is STUNNING and I show it to everyone with pride. Look no further for a great tasting cake made with love - this is by far the best cake I have ever ordered, and I'm not sure it can ever be topped. (Yes, that's real aluminum foil she put on the bottom! The details are just...chef's kiss) Thanks again

I'm always on the hunt for a good savory pastry so I got the ham and cheese croissant and it did not disappoint.

I was slightly shocked that 2 pastries were $20 - that's the only reason it's four instead of five stars!

Meh. I could've swore that their food used to be good. Not anymore, unless I picked the only 4…read moreterrible items on the list. I had macaroons a few weeks ago, and remember them being good. These were the only items in their selection that had a price, $4, so I got two togo. The lemon bars and blueberry bars looked delicious, so I got two each for after dinner. We got 50 little neck clams, and needed some bread. Their sourdough looked good, so I got a loaf. The sourdough that we bought was literally the most dense bread I have ever eaten. Even soaking it in clam broth did not help. Tried an un-soaked piece, and it was like eating tough jerky. The dogs didn't even want it. After dinner I cut one each of the pastries in quarters to share. The lemon had a very slight taste of lemon (very very slight), and although the blueberry appears to be packed with fruit, it only tasted like soggy dough. (See pic). My last shot was the macaroon. I gave one to my daughter to split with me. She barely split it. The filling was like the mixed it with marshmallows. It stretched while the cookie crushed, and also did not taste good at all. I would like to think they got a new pastry chef that is learning, but sorry, at 42 bucks for that amount of food that was all bad, I'm not going to be another guinea pig. Oh, no one wanted the other lemon or blueberry bar, so sadly I threw them out.

I also loved a good iced oatmeal cookie growing up but again this was the adult, sophisticated version, chewy, moist, just perfect!

(Which is perfectly fine) I purchased two cupcakes: a peanut butter cup and lime one. This is where my issues begin. I was disappointed to find the peanut butter cup was just chocolate with peanut butter frosting. I was hoping for a PBC inside the cupcake. That said the chocolate cupcake alone was the best thing I tasted. I was not impressed with the frosting at all. I felt like there was a really off aftertaste to it. I love key lime and really had high hopes for this cupcake. It did have a filling but I couldn't discern if it was frosting or not and like the chocolate one the frosting had an aftertaste, especially the little white bit of lime zested icing on top. We could not eat that particular cupcake and did not enjoy the frosting on either one so basically just enjoyed the chocolate cupcake. Not my cup of tea- not saying others wouldn't like it, so definitely give it a try. Might be right up your alley. One last thing- the size of cupcakes are quite big and price per cupcake is quite reasonable. I'd go back if they changed their frosting and added more flavor to the key lime.
