    Cannoli Rum Cake
    Emily C.

    As soon as I walked into the store, I knew had made a goood choice ordering from there. It smelled soooo good! The cake was beautiful and tastes amazing. I love that they have so many cool flavors to choose from and that it's a family owned local place! Definitely recommend for your next event.

    You gotta try the Strawberry  Rum Cake

    Lisa's cakes are made fresh. They are so moist and delicious. I'm from Washington, so It's my go to whenever I come to visit my daughter in Arizona and need a cake. Plus Lisa and her daughters are so helpful and genuinely so sweet!

    Email to business

    I wanna start this by saying, these cakes are delicious. I have ordered from here SEVERAL times. I ordered a cake for my sons's birthday. I originally wanted a cake that resembled a soccer field.. Although I am no cake decorator, I thought it was a fairly simple request, as a soccer field as just a couple boxes and a circle in the middle, and I just wanted it green. I was told it would be "too expensive" and I should "buy and edible template from Albertsons to put on top." I was VERY off put by this. I was told it would be "too expensive" but they never told me a price. And I thought the idea of an edible template was extremely tacky. I opted for Happy Birthday in the middle, but hoped the frosting would still be green. I was planning on buying plastic soccer players and goals to be put on afterward. Notes were took on my cake, but I felt extremely rushed and wanted to make sure details were correct, so I emailed the business the next day. (Email attached) I was called a few hours later by Lisa herself who said "yes I remember you, remember I said to buy the edible template for the top" I explained that I did not like that idea, and I just wanted it to be green with the happy birthday in the middle and I would add my little things at the end. Attached is the cake I picked up. I was extremely disappointed, and when I called I was told that in order for it to be green I would have had to pay extra. I clarified "it would have cost extra to add a couple drops of food coloring to the frosting?" "Yes" I wish it would have been make crystal clear over the phone that I was getting a white cake. I wanted a soccer field. I thought I made that clear on the phone and the email. The cake was served 2 days later, and it was delicious. But I am not sure the next time I'll be back. I would recommend getting the cakes without any special requests. It seems to be too much trouble for them. But these cakes are delicious.

    Custom specialty cake for the carnival event by Lisa Rum Cakes and staff! Beautiful

    Lisa's rum cake and the entire stuff are out of this world. Amazing! I called upon Lisa 's for a specialty event. I was throwing for a commercial company whereby I was putting on a carnival for 100 employees for employee appreciation event. Lisa provided all the specialty cakes for the cakewalk absolutely amazing. The cakewalk was a huge hit at the event! I can't think Lisa and her staff enough! The cakes were gorgeous, the event was a huge success! Thank you so very much Lisa, Madison and Megan for all the hard work and beautiful outcome! We look forward to the next event!

    Limoncello and peach Amaretto

    Amazing service when arrived to pick up cake. I Got some sample cakes and OMG the peach amaretto! Limoncello was so tasty. Bday Cake was very moist. Very impressed with the decoration and Loved the icing! Highly recommend.

    Was looking for something a little different for my wife's 50th birthday party. I took a risk and ordered a cake online from Lisa's Rum Cake. I had never tasted her products but they sounded excellent. My wife is a big peanut butter cup fan, so I ordered the Peanut Butter and Chocolate cake. That cake was so freeeak'n goood!!! The cake was the talk of the party with everyone raving how great is was. My wife still claims it is the best cake she ever had. Excellent service and a fantastic product. We will be back for sure.

    Rickey's Wedding Cake
    Rickey Lynn G.

    While I do not review for yelp anymore this cake and the service was so exceptional that I must review it. My spouse and I decided to get married and I only gave Lisa 1 weeks notice that I would need a two tier wedding cake. Instead of saying no, as most places will on such short notice, they said yes and we sat down with a book of gorgeous cakes that they have made for others. After going through page after page of pictures we finally settled on a pretty white cake with some touches of purple on it. It wasn't hard to select the type of cake, as Lisa is the daughter of Cathy, the inventor of the original Cathy's Rum Cake. Ours also included a layer of fresh strawberries in it. Having purchased a number of cakes from Cathy's, we were sure that this would be a wonderful cake and we were not disappointed. Lisa's even arranged to have the cake delivered at the appointed time, and once again there was no disappointment. Before leaving we took home a number of "cuts" which are pieces of different cakes. One of them didn't even make it home it was so good. Everyone at the wedding raved about the cake, and even though it was a small wedding, almost no cake was left, and leftovers were gone in a day. If you need a terrific cake, even something not a wedding cake, I suggest you run - not walk, to Lisa's. You will never be disappointed.

    The best bakery in the Valley! This is our go-to place for special cakes. We've ordered their cakes for birthdays, Valentines, a baby shower and my husband's upcoming promotion ceremony! Everyone always raves about how moist and delicious they are. Our personal favorites are Rumfetti, Rum Velvet and Circo! This is a small, family run business and they are always so nice! We love supporting local and will use them for all our cake needs!

    Cake

    This is my first time ordering a cake from this place and we absolutely loved it! We ordered a 10" round cake for a baby shower that had 28 people. We had enough slices for everyone to have a piece but we should have ordered more! It was so good! We got the lemon flavored rum cake and it was so light and delicious and perfectly moist. The design and colors we picked went perfectly with the theme. I would definitely order from them again.

    Yum

    Ordered the Strawberry Cannoli Cake for my Mother's 70th Birthday. It was amazing! Best cake I've ever had! Customer service was great! Can't wait to order my next cake!

    Our wedding cake
    Ashley G.

    We absolutely love coming to Lisa's Rum Cake! Our wedding cake turned out amazing and it was absolutely delicious. I'm so happy with how it turned out and all our guests loved it. In addition to our wedding, we love stopping by for cuts on Saturdays or whenever we have the day off. It's always delicious. You have to try the Strawberry Rum.

    Light fluffy frosting and layered filled, moist cake.... this pic doesn't do it justice...there's glitter on top...
    Susan B.

    Lisa's Rum Cake is one of the best bakeries in the valley. They have a variety of moist, flavorful and varied cakes. They also sell by the slice for a quick dessert. The ladies behind the counter are always cheery, personable and informative in the selection of the right cake. I prefer to buy local and this is the best local bakery.

    wonderful little shop. will return.
    Alexis F.

    wonderful little shop, will return. would love to stop by and pick up some of their cuts sometime. i'll definitely be watching the menu to see when i'd like to come and try to grab some. whoever helped me pick up the cake i ordered was very kind. i ordered online well in advance and had no issues. came during my allotted pick up & it was a breeze, in & out in under 5 minutes. Their cake is perfect after a huge meal, it's still flavored well but not over the top. It's sweet without being too sweet. The batter was clearly mixed perfect because the consistency was impeccable and dough itself wasn't gritty and chunky. It was just my husband and I enjoying this and we did not anticipate finishing it, but oh boy did we. We've got a few more birthdays coming up and will absolutely be ordering here. Thanks!

Walking in the girls working that day were so friendly and helpful. I ordered an assortment of pastries.

Prices are fair and there's so many options to choose from it's a bit overwhelming because I'm indecisive and want to try everything lol The pastries were all fresh and the ingredients were as well. The cream fillings in the pastries were fluffy and light. I wish the strawberry choux bun had a stronger strawberry flavor as it really tasted like just cream as well as the pistachio pastry. I'll have to try a mini pie and other goods next time I'm around!

Ham and Swiss, the ham was just a single thin slice of deli meat. The cinnamon roll also missing something... maybe more sugar and better quality cinnamon? Perhaps salt in the dough? I'm not sure how they prepare theirs but definitely looked better than it tasted. Raspberry pop tart was my favorite item! Husband had no complaints on the cupcake.

As I looked around, I couldn't help but think that if I lived there, I'd probably be stopping in daily. The combination of a bakery and coffee house makes it the perfect neighborhood spot. Although I skipped the coffee this visit--it was mid-afternoon on a Sunday, and I wasn't looking for a caffeine boost--I'll definitely be back to give it a try. For this visit, we focused on the baked goods and sampled four items: the chocolate croissant doughnut, maple croissant doughnut, vanilla doughnut, and a red velvwtcupcake. Every single one was delicious. The croissant doughnuts were wonderfully flaky with just the right amount of sweetness, the vanilla doughnut was soft and flavorful, and the red velvet cupcake was rich and satisfying. It's rare to find a bakery where every item you try is a winner, but this one delivered across the board. Whether you're stopping in for coffee, a sweet treat, or both, this charming bakery is well worth a visit. I'll definitely be back.

Perhaps dining in is a better experience, I can't remember if they warm up the pastry but we took our maple, cheesecake croissant, and cinnamon roll to go. It tasted a day old. The croissant/ bread didn't taste fresh, almost stale. I opted to warm it up a bit, it was a bit better but then it just started feeling too sweet so I wasn't interested anymore. the cinnamon roll breading lacked flavor, but the cream on top was good. But again the bread dough just felt stale. It was a Sunday in the AM that we went. Not busy at all. Since it's a part of an apartment, parking is a little awkward and can feel tight. You could easily not notice the place and mistake it for being closed. It's right off of the round about. (the wind had blew over the open sign and the open sign wasn't lit) Service is okay, nice enough. Not really warm. Seating is ample and is cozy to sit and read or catch up with a friend.
