    My sister bought me a piece of coconut cake from you today for my birthday! It was so delicious!…read more The frosting was light, not too sweet and delicious! The cake is light and oh so tasty!!! I'll be back for more delicious cake, can't wait to try more flavors!

    Goodness. I don't know where to start.. I'm honestly writing this on my behalf of my mother and…read morelittle sister because I was a witness. My mom ordered cupcakes for my little sister's birthday from this business. The agreement was to pickup the cupcakes at 4pm, our choice due to needing to make an event by 6pm for my little sister's 14th birthday. We arrived inside of the store on time and noticed that the woman who runs the store was dealing with a frustrated customer. The customer proceeded to ask us (my mom and I) how do we feel about the cake that was prepared for a relative's 50th. We said it looked nice. However, there were water stains that destroyed the overall photo that was printed for the cake. She requested a re-print from the worker/woman and we waited for about 10 minutes then asked how long before our cupcakes were ready. She stated "about 10 more minutes" then she proceed to yell to another worker in the back. I'm unsure what was said because I don't understand Spanish that well. A few moments later, the cupcakes were made. ** We requested pink cupcakes with glitter in the shape of an L. Super cute! However, once we served the cupcakes to the guests at the event.. we noticed the disappointment on everyone's faces. Including mine. I describe the taste as cardboard and another guest described it as metal. The taste was awful. My little sister was so embarrassed on her 14th birthday! My mom returned the box of cupcakes with no request of a refund, only a complaint. We wanted them to know they tasted awful and we wanted them to dispose of them so they could see they were not enjoyed. Their excuse was that "pink icing tastes like that and it was the glitter".. either way, there was no resolve. Very sad because this place came highly recommended and I believe they successfully did cake in the past. FYI, the cake portion of the cupcake was so good and moist but the icing destroyed the entire cupcake. We hoped for resolve but I guess we wasted money. Honest review. Hopefully, they can rectify this issue!

    I had the pleasure of meeting the owner. She was very sweet along with her employees. This is a…read morevery cute shop. I learned about it by seeing several post on tik tok and instagram. It's a little hard to find but once I found it, I was happy. I have to say, this place is seriously a gem to Chester. Everything was delicious! And her prices are so reasonable. I thought she didn't charge me for something when she gave me my total. Wow! To have an affordable and delicious treat shop in the area is awesome!! I will be back and I have been telling everyone about it!! Cookies, Dubai chocolate doughnut, cakes... everything g was delicious!

    I have seen some lovely pictures of this place on social media over the last few months, so I was…read moreexcited to try it. Unfortunately, I was a bit underwhelmed in person. Apparently the owner does a lot of custom work, which would be good because you know exactly what you are getting and when (and how much it will cost.) I stopped by Thursday right when they opened "for the week" since they are closed Monday through Wednesday. Several of the things we specifically came there for were out of stock or still baking. I know that she is trying to find the balance between baking enough for people to purchase, and eliminating waste, but it sort of made it look barren. The display case had one each of some of the stuff that was available, but I just didn't like how empty it made it feel. The shop also has a ton of other things displayed for you to buy, like essential oil bug spray, jewelry, woodcraft, etc, but then for a place called Honeybee BAKERY, the bakery seems like an afterthought when there is so much more other stuff than there are baked goods. The actual baked goods that we could try get sort of mixed reviews from me. I opted for a vanilla bean mini cake that ended up being $9, and a pumpkin cookie sandwich that was either $7 or $8. (There are no prices listed, so you have to ask.) The cake was cute, about the size of a really large cupcake (or two small cupcakes), and I definitely could have eaten the entire thing in one sitting, but I personally didn't care for the buttercream. I know it sounds like a totally *Karen* thing to say, but the buttercream is too buttery. Hear me out though, if you just eat something that is really butter-heavy and not a good ratio of powdered sugar and liquid, it actually just leaves this really greasy film in your mouth and on your lips in my opinion. The flavor was okay, but there was just way too much icing and therefore WAY too much butter so it was kind of unpleasant. The cookies were okay, but again, the buttercream in the center made it sort of unpleasant. Definitely eat them cold because the buttercream just slips and slides out if it is room temperature. I know for next time that I would just opt for the cookies. I would definitely suggest the bakery utilize social media way more to keep up to date on what is currently available, and list prices.

    I LOVE Pearl's Bake Shoppe. I've been eyeing their cupcakes for a while before finally deciding to…read moretry them, but I'm so glad that I did! I've come back more than a few times to try different cupcakes from this bakery, and it has not disappointed! They always have a line when I stop by of people picking up bakery orders or stopping by to grab sweet treats. They have all kinds of pastries and bakery items: cakes, cake pops, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, pies, macarons, pop tarts and even packaged drinks. I've gotten a few different cupcakes from them. My favorites have been the peaches and cream, top hat cupcake, pistachio raspberry and strawberry vanilla. Their tiramisu cupcake, margarita cupcake and the key lime cupcakes all actually tasted so much like the namesakes! Their cupcakes are mostly perfectly balanced sweetness: I haven't had anything that was too sweet. Their cakes look so beautifully decorated, but I haven't tried any. They look so good though! Everything in there are so aesthetically pleasing, and if the cupcakes are anything to go by, I'd say flavor wise, the other items would meet expectations! Definitely one of my favorite places in Richmond to get myself a treat and wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
