I HAVE to tell you the story about our wedding cake! Tom and Jeannine with "It Takes the Cake…read moreLawrenceville" are SUCH dear people and I could not be HAPPIER that they made our cake!!! --------- 1: Jeannine and I corresponded through email and ironed out all the particulars of the flavors they offer. 2: Tom baked the samples and they tied them up in a ribbon, cupcakes with many different flavors for us to take home and try out. 3: They drove 3 hours to deliver it! I moved to NW GA from NE, and they didn't even hesitate to transport it all the way to where our wedding ceremony was. 4: We left a few flowers on the cake table in a jar and Jeannine decorated it BEAUTIFULLY. I absolutely ~adored~ how it turned out. They are artistic in more ways than one. 5: It was soooooo good. I can't even tell you how many times I have thought about it since. I need to place a continuous order for our birthdays and holidays etc. 6: And extra extra! They didn't depend on us snagging the top layer for the future, they brought us a COMPLETELY NEW tiny cake top, all wrapped up for our first anniversary- that is neatly tucked away in our freezer; we'll see how long it lasts though... Colton wants to save it, but I highly doubt it will still be there on May 3rd of next year, it sitting there calling my name and all... 7:Months later after the wedding - our guests and family are STILL talking about how "out of this world" our wedding cake was... is that even normal??? ---------- Can't recommend them enough! They are dear souls. Every conversation I've ever had with them - I have been lifted up and encouraged in the Lord. Love you guys so much! Senator & Mrs Hailey Ann Moore

Went to a work meeting and they catered the lunch. I had the turkey sandwich box with a cookie and…read morechips. The food was fresh and made with care. The turkey sandwich was piled high with meat. They definitely did not hold back. I will definitely be visiting when I'm in this side of town again. After the meeting we headed over in person to purchase some sweets. The ambiance of the bakery was so cute and welcoming. The customer service was good as well. The staff answered all of our questions and didn't rush us. I will definitely be back.

The space is filled with sweet treat, some seating, and a full menu with both sweet and savory items. I had the grilled cheese (no meat on Friday for me!) which came with a tomato soup and I got a peanut butter brownie for dessert. All were delicious and I look forward to trying to trying more items. The staff was sweet and helpful. Dedicated parking which is free during the weekdays. The signs by the parking clearly describe the free hours. Will be back!

My niece and I purchased several treats from the bakery a while ago. Most of them tasted like the…read morecommercial scent used to refresh the air. Some of the cookies were stale. We had to throw most of our items away. The only edible item was a chocolate cupcake. It was fresh and moist. I noticed the cupcakes are kept in an enclosed case and cake slices are boxed. The other treats and the quiche are not enclosed. They are beautifully displayed, however, I have wondered why they are not enclosed in a standard bakery case. My concerns (about the openness) are flies and other flying insects landing on the food, possible improper food temperature, and the commercial scents being absorbed into the open treats. For example, I have not purchased quiche because it is out in the open without any refrigeration. We visited in the afternoon and a sliced quiche was out for purchase. I hope my comments are taken into consideration. Meanwhile, I will pause my support.

I pulled in to see an off "open" sign! However they were open. The shop is dim, and when I entered…read morearound 3:30 pm on a Tuesday no one was there. I think for certain workers this is a great place to get work done especially because it wasn't busy. There was also a tv on to provided the background noise some people love. Another reason I rated lower is because I actually stopped for a sweet frozen drink... but the espresso machine was down! I'm sure this isn't the owners fault, but geesh. All that being said, the woman who assisted me was extra sweet and I assume an owner. I ordered a orange blossom cupcake and loved it. One other issue is I wanted to pay with cash, but she didn't have enough change. She was grateful I chose to pay with a card, but it just reminded me that they are somewhat ill prepared. I hope it is new and plan to come back one day to a full menu of cupcakes and working espresso!

Unfortunately, we were disappointed with the taste and texture. The cake was very dry and lacked flavor, and it also broke apart very easily when we tried to cut and serve it. I wanted to be honest because, while the appearance was nice, the overall quality of the cake itself wasn't what we expected, especially for such a special occasion. I hope she'll take the feedback into consideration for future orders.

I contracted with this vendor to provide 100 mini wedding cakes (approximately 1.5" squares). I…read moreprovided pictures with examples of different decorations for the mini cakes. What I got was approximately 20 large square cakes (approximately 5" squares). The vendor attributed the shortage to having dropped the others in transit. The product was unique, however it consisted of a hard, thick, 3/4" shell that was difficult to cut and cake inside that was not freshly made. My intention was for the guest to have one or more bite sized cakes. What I got was a monstrosity that my guests did not know how to attack. Some tried in vain to cut a piece, others were confused as to whether they should take the whole "brick". Im not one to regularly write reviews but in this case a very negative review is warranted. If I could give ZERO stars, I would.
