    Different type of cookies! They were all FANTASTIC.
    Yaima E.

    Best cookies I ever had! I see everyone giving cake compliments but I tell you we try a few yesterday and they were best cookies I ever had! Ran a half marathon today very happy. As soon I get back will definitely visit again. Continue to make delicious cookies. We are grateful for you!

    My husband ordered me a cake to celebrate me reaching my goal of 6 months breastfeeding and they nailed the design i had in mind!! The service was great, AND the cake, frosting, and filling were exactly what I was looking for; plus it tastes so amazing! Will 110% be ordering all of my future fun celebration cakes from these guys, I highly recommend you do too!!

    Strawberry and cream angel food cake... OMG!!! To die for...

    Excellent cake for our dear friend's birthday! Thank you so much for putting this together last minute!

    Piña Colada cake
    Drazana S.

    Key West Cakes are amazing! Recommend 100 times over. Stephen at the bakery was incredible from the first day of ordering the cake. The cake was delivered in perfect condition to the reception restaurant and its presentation exceeding the bride and grooms expectation. The flavor?! Amazing! The piña colada was refreshing and the cake was so fluffy! Highly recommend Key West Cakes to anyone looking for a cake for a wedding, birthday or just because.

    Guava gorgeous

    The guava cupcake was so good, the oreo one too. I love that the filling is abundant. These were delivered for my birthday and I think it was a walk in and walk out affair.

    Funfetti wedding cake with buttercream frosting.  Yummy.
    Jo H.

    We ordered an 8 inch cake via email for our daughter's small wedding. Steve was responsive in answering questions and when we arrived we gave Steve the cake topper we brought and paid the $100, which included delivery to Sunset Key. The cake was delivered on time with the topper. The cake was delicious! The only nit was that we ordered German chocolate filling with the funfetti cake with buttercream frosting. The cake that we got did not have any chocolate in it. When I followed up with Steve later he replied they don't usually put chocolate filling in a cake unless the cake itself is chocolate with chocolate buttercream frosting. It was still quite yummy! The funfetti had some type of praline or nut, it really was yummy.

    Whatever you do try this place out they're cupcakes are seriously good. We had the Mango and keylime cupcake, mango was all throughout the middle of the it. The keylime cupcake and pie were oh so good with just enough lime without being over bearing. I also like the fact that cupcakes were soft and moist and huge. Their are also a bunch of cookies to choose from also. Very good customer service. Definitely a must try.

    Sea shell themed cake with pink ombre colors

    We went to Key West to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday this past week on 8/21. Mind you, ten of us flew from L.A. and flew/drive down and also visited relatives in Fort Lauderdale. So I completely forgot to order a birthday cake! As we were driving on the way to Key West, I found Key West Cakes via Yelp and saw a beautiful turquoise, sea shell themed cake. I decided to call them. The lady (I forgot her name) helped me decide to get exactly what I envisioned by asking me what my daughter's favorite color is (pink) and flavor (white cake with strawberries). I told her I liked that sea shell theme. She suggested an ombre cake frosting from white to light pink to dark pink with that theme. A white cake with strawberries & cream will be extra but will be perfect. So I ordered it and I wanted edible sea shells. She offered to put glitter on it and deliver it to the restaurant I chose for the birthday dinner for extra $10 charge. However, I had to ask the restaurant if this was okay with them and confirm the time. So I had to call her back. No problem for the restaurant and I selected Duffy's Seafood and Steakhouse as it seemed to be a Key West institution from the reviews! Needless to say, that $80 cake was worth every penny! It was delicious with just the right amount of sugar in the icing, creamy strawberries (in little bits) and moist white cake. The sea shells were made of white chocolate! My daughter (and the rest of us) loved that cake so much!! We were still eating it a couple of days later! The next day, I personally went to their bakery and thanked all of them for the excellent cake and promised to write a 5-star review!! They also had cupcakes in the display case and I had to fight the impulse to purchase one! Lol. Go here for special cakes for special occasions!!!

    The cupcakes here are incredible. The chocolate cupcake was a delicious light cupcake with a light, airy chocolate frosting. The Key Lime cupcake had a light citrus taste with an extra kick of key lime in the frosting. Super pleased with the lavender flower decorated cupcake which had a subtle lavender flavor-just right. Also have to give high marks to their key lime pie! After trying several around town, I wished I had tried their sooner- would have had it more often!! My husband and I tried many more items while we stayed nearby for our month on Key West and we were not disappointed with any of it. Carrot cake, cookies, more cupcakes... A shout out to owners Steven and Paul for being so gracious and inviting despite me taking so long to make my choices sometimes!! And thank you, Paul, for the history on the house we stayed in!

    Luke's AWESOME Star Wars birthday cake

    The best cupcakes!! The dreamsicle is truly a dream. The cupcakes have light and airy frosting on a moist cake. They are the perfect balance! We sampled five and couldn't decide which was our favorite. The staff and owner are very friendly!

    Thank you for baking a special vegan cake for my ring bearers with allergies! Photo by Megan Ellis

    Key West Cakes was so fun to work with for our wedding cake!! We had a blast during our tasting (their shop set up is really cute!) and then loved the ease of working with them over email to finalize the details. We got a beautiful, three-tiered wedding cake made of coconut cake and coconut buttercream. They also prepared an insanely delicious small vegan cake for my two little cousins with allergies. The most important thing though is that the cake was SO.GOOD. Like - oh my god. There wasn't any left over at the end of the wedding!! My husband and I literally drove by on our way out of the Keys after our wedding to grab some cupcakes in the same flavor as our wedding cake. I can't wait to stop by the next time we're in the Keys. Thank you so much!!!

I've had dessert in the desert near Area 51, And underground in Antarctica, far from the sun. I've had it in graveyards, beneath moonlight so fair, And even in a dessert restaurant, yes, I've had dessert there! At Better Than Sex, the Fever was mine, And it tasted so splendid, so luscious, divine. I tried one of their special coffees as well, And it was so delicious, I nearly swooned under its spell. But the night's grandest moment, the finest display, Was when our waiter arrived with the desserts on a tray. He looked straight in my eyes as he named each delight, With a confidence both curious and wonderfully bright. My dessert was a huge phallus, impressive and grand, With two giant balls resting beneath it in hand. It was covered in "splooge sauce," a curious sweet stream, A dessert of such drama it belonged in a dream! I truly enjoyed this place and would gladly return If I lived nearby, where the sweet candles burn. They are masters of dessert, of flavor and flair-- A deliciously mischievous treasure tucked away there.

We only ordered one dessert and it got there promptly. Everything on the menu looked excellent and delicious. We settled on the cookie nookie cake, it was super fresh with many contrasting flavors that made every bite a pleasure. Overall had an amazing time and recommend this place for anything from a late night dessert or a full dessert meal. If we're ever around again, we are definitely going back and trying a lot more than just one dessert.

I arrived around 7:30 a.m., and the place was already starting to get busy. Food They offer a very interesting assortment of donuts, including flavors you don't typically see elsewhere. Options like Blueberry Cheesecake, Brown Butter Hazelnut, and Cuban Coffee Cake stand out. I chose the Cuban Coffee Cake. It was essentially a spiced coffee cake shaped like a donut, topped with plenty of glaze and crumble. The portion was generous. It could easily feed two people, but I managed to finish the entire thing. For a beverage, I ordered a Mocha Latte. The flavor was very good, but it was served on the cool side. It was completely cold before I finished, and I ended up tossing the last portion. They only serve drinks in paper cups, not ceramic mugs. Although mugs were visible, I was told the health department does not allow them to use them. For me, coffee in a real mug always feels better than paper. Service I have mixed feelings about the service. The person taking my order seemed a bit on edge. When I asked about the mug situation, she appeared annoyed that I would even ask. Since it was my first visit, I asked about the most popular donut, and that also seemed to irritate her. I rephrased and asked for her personal favorite instead, which she answered more willingly. I noticed a few other staff interactions, and the overall tone of the crew felt tense. Not sure if that's typical or if it was just a busy morning. Atmosphere I took a small table inside to finish my coffee and donut. There are several small tables, best suited for two people. Toward the back of the dining area there were boxes and pallets visible. This isn't necessarily a place you visit for ambiance. Most people grabbed a box of donuts and left. Only a handful were dining inside. If you want a good donut with creative flavors, this place delivers. Just don't expect a relaxed coffee shop experience with welcoming, friendly staff.

    Came here the other day with a gf of mine and we ordered the Maple Bacon donut and the Cuban coffee…read morecake donut. Both were really good but I would say the maple bacon one was better just because the Cuban Coffee Cake was thicker, more doughy. But the flavor was delicious on it I just liked how soft the maple bacon dough was. Either way, I can't wait to come back and try more flavors. The coffee was really good as well! Scott was so great, such a pleasure to meet. Will come back very soon!
