I will say upfront this is a really pretty cake, custom covered in a reproduction of a painting I…read moredid and my artist signature. That's the reason I gave 2 stars and not just 1. My good friend ordered me a custom birthday cake from this bakery. When he went to pick it up, it was not decorated to what he asked for (it was supposed to have additional icing detail on the sides and adornments on top). I cut into it and it looks good but the cake layers are uneven/thin, icing layers are thick in ratio to the cake and the sugar paper wasn't adhered well (wavy). The icing is overly sweet and the white cake was supposed to be wedding white but it's a buttermilk white. It's tangy, tastes off and the blue icing had so much color it has that dye aftertaste. The cake is pretty but it's not good. I don't know what my friend paid for it but I am guessing it was pricey because it was custom. I love supporting local but not if it's a poor product. I would think twice before buying a custom cake here.

The best thing about the very simple cake I ordered was the taste. It tasted very good. The decor…read morepart was...elementary. Like a child did it. Very disappointed. We had to spruce it up a lot on our own. The person there when I picked it up was brash. I had to sign a piece of paper saying I agreed that it looked fine?! She flash showed me the cake that was already boxed. She definitely wasn't proud of the work and when I got it to the car to look more closely at it, I understood why. I was pretty upset. It was embarrassing, thankfully it tasted good.

I called the owner, Rachel, and left a voicemail. She promptly returned my call and I placed an order for next day delivery. I decided to order a dozen of the Strawberry Shortcake flavor. Ordering and paying was a breeze, and I thought both the cost of the cupcakes and the delivery fee were reasonable. Rachel delivered the cupcakes on time and was very communicative. Icing on the cake: my aunt said they were delicious! I will definitely order with Dainty Cakes again for future birthdays and highly recommend this business!

I was having trouble finding an item, and I stopped by the meat/seafood counter and asked where it was. It had nothing to do with the meat or seafood counter. There was a young man there named Isaiah, who came out from behind the counter, took me across the store and showed me the different selections for that item. After I had selected what I wanted, I was going back to that counter to thank him, but as I was headed back, he saw another customer that was having an issue and stopped to help them. I just felt like he deserved some kind of recognition for going out of his way to help people.

This week was cookie themed cupcakes and boy they did not disappoint! Each cupcake was very moist with a generous dollop of frosting and a cookie piece on top. I really enjoyed the cookie butter and snickerdoodle. My family loved the Stroopwaffle, cookies and cream and half baked. The gal mentioned they had homemade oatmeal cream pies and fudge rounds but were sold out. I will have to get there earlier next time! The shop is small with only a couple tables but very nice inside. It's an easy location right off 7 Highway with plenty of parking. Definitely recommend!

After being told they may "find it" I was told that someone forgot to make it. They offered to make it within the next 20 minutes, I let them know I needed to drive three girls to their birthday party and would come back for the cake. I got a call 30 minutes later saying that the cake could not be made because my order did not come in in time. After finally tracking down and speaking to the manager, she told me there was a "glitch in the system" and that my order actually never came in. None of this could possibly be true, being as my receipt was in the shop when I arrived. They all acknowledged that my order had arrived at the store, but no one bothered making it. Avoid this place at all cost. While I was waiting around a woman arrived asking for a dairy free option, the girl behind the counter said she did not know if they had one, and offered "sugar free". I walked over and pointed out the dairy free option to the woman who came in. I don't work there, but standing there for 10 minutes I was more versed in the produce than their paid employees. Absolute train wreck of a business. I ended up driving frantically to Hyvee to grab last minute cakes as opposed to having nothing. This was supposed to be a too tier dessert treat for a special occasion. What a profound disappointment.
