I contacted several bakeries to make me a custom cake to feed about 12 people and Rise was the most…read moreaffordable at $75 for a 6 in cake. I initially contacted them 2 weeks before my event via email with a picture of a cake design that I liked and they responded fairly quickly but did require me to call them to confirm the order. I paid in full over the phone (they require you to pay in full or pay half over the phone before pick up). The cake itself was delicious and everyone of my guests loved it. It was so moist and also matched the image I gave them. I deducted two stars is because the night before my pickup they gave me a call at about 4:15pm and did not leave a message. I gave them a call back at 4:30pm and left a message myself. The store closes at 5pm so I assumed I would get a call back on the same day but did not. My agreed pick up time for the cake was at 10 am the following morning and when I got there they told me they tried giving me a call the day before to let me know that the cake would be ready at noon instead. This was a little bit annoying seeing as there was no actual communication with me and I now had to return 2 hours later to pick up my cake on the day that I am hosting my event and have several other errands to run. I only received an apology over the miscommunication. Either way, I was able to pick up my cake at noon and it all turned out fine, but I wish they had just left me a message the day before instead of just never giving me a call back and having me come in twice.

My mom and I stopped for a treat while out looking for my wedding cake. To my surprise, there was…read morea sign stating "Specialty Cakes available". I got the most delicious (that was a given) cake and able to choose two flavors in my three layer 10" cake. We choose Italian Cream and Churro. Yes, Churro! It was delicious and went together nicely. The icing was perfect, not too sweet and the right thickness. We opted on no fillings but there are many to choose from as there are cake and frosting flavors! I have always loved their cupcakes, lemon bars, and others and am now so glad to know they do cakes, very well, too! Thank you Rise Cupcakes! 10 out of 10 stars!!!

Craved Creations is a tiny bakery located in a cramped field. Turning in and finding a parking…read morespace is difficult. The staff here are kind and patient with their customers. This is NOT the type of bakery where you can set down, and have a cup of coffee with your favorite treat. They don't serve warm beverages here anyway. Craved Creations is pick up only. You can order special cakes and other sweets, of course. Since this is a small bakery, stock is limited. You'll never know what desserts are available until you walk in or call them. There's cookies, cupcakes, cake pops, cinnamon rolls, cookie sandwiches and macarons. Everything is homemade, fresh from the kitchen. They don't sell whole cakes or cake slices. You can sample cake flavors, but only for parties and events. I've seen some photos of their customized cakes and designer cookies. The staff do excellent work! Their prices are surprisingly reasonable. Me and my family would love to order from Craved Creations in the near future!

Only issue is you have to order at least 2-3 weeks out so plan in advance. But I think they now stock a few blank cakes for pickup which is fantastic.

I can't say enough good things about this baker! Her cakes are a perfect blend of artistry and…read moreflavor. Not only are they beautifully crafted with unique, creative designs, but they actually taste as amazing as they look--moist, rich, and truly enjoyable. I've had disappointing experiences in the past with cakes that looked cute but lacked flavor and texture, making them unenjoyable. But her cakes and sugar cookies are on a whole other level--there's just no competition! The communication throughout the process was seamless, her pricing is competitive, and without a doubt, she is the best baker I've tried in the area. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a treat that impresses both in appearance and taste! (I have attached a few of the creations she's made for my family)

We loved working with Jazz Bird and Erin for our wedding cake! We first met Erin at the Bryan…read moreMuseum's bridal show and were instantly impressed with the various cake flavors she had available for tasting. We ordered a small 5" cake just for the two of us to cut per tradition and got the lemon blueberry flavor. The cake was the perfect balance of tart and sweet, and Erin killed it with the wildflower design! If you want a cake that is both aesthetically pleasing and tastes as good as it looks, you can't go wrong with her!

I ordered a full-size tres leches cake with the expectation of getting what they sell by the slice…read more When people started eating the cake everyone immediately asked what happened to getting a tres leches cake because that's what everyone was expecting, especially my son because tres leches was his choice of cake for his birthday. I took a bite myself and realized the taste & texture was that of a regular cake. It was most definitely NOT a tres leches cake. I took the cake back to let them know I did not receive a tres leches cake. The employees were adamant that it was. They said it just wasn't moist because I didn't ask for it. Sorry, but a tres leches cake is a tres leches cake & anytime I've ordered one from different places I received what I asked for. I let them know I did not know I was supposed to let them know I wanted a moist tres leches cake and the person who took my order didn't mention at the time my order was placed. You'd think that would be something they'd let their customers know. They said they can't make the big cakes like their individual slices they sell because the milk from the cake would run out of the container. They did not offer a refund or to fix it. I know it's because they feel they sold me the correct thing and they did nothing wrong. I left the cake there and left. It sucked paying $40 for a cake and having a certain expectation just to be let down. I went to them because they are a small business, close to home, and because I've had their individual slices of tres leches cake and it was good.
