    I don't know what inspired me to drive to Eminence for donuts, but I did it! I was doing something in Louisville and decided to make a small trek out to see if this place really existed or not. They had a good variety of donuts and, in all honesty, I don't have any ups or downs from all the donuts that I tried from the place. It was basically just a good donut place!

    Emily is not only kind, but she is a true visionary when it comes to cakes and cookies! She is…read moreprofessional, Timely, and just all-around a great Businesswoman! We have ordered cookies from her for a housewarming gift, and didn't have a clue as to what to get. Well it was Emily to the rescue! She had the idea to do cookies in the shape of keys, and also a front door with a wreath on it!! Since I'm not very creative, she was able to just put it ALL together (even the colors!) for me just right off the bat!! They couldn't have been more adorable, and everyone loved their sugar cookies; I felt like the hero all night, and I didn't even do anything but buy them, haha! We'd also gotten a simple cake from Emily a couple years ago for my friend's first birthday party. It was only about 10 people, so my friend didn't want anything over-the-top; she just wanted a really small cake that would be cute for pics. My friend's dad had passed away right before this, and he was a fireman, so Emily created the perfect little cake, designed perfectly for her little guy. On top of that, it was chocolate and delicious!! We've also gotten her holiday cookies-- she sells out SUPER quickly, so make sure you place an order in time! We missed out one year because we waited until the last minute. They're the cutest things I've ever seen!! We will ALWAYS be patronizing Emily, and we feel lucky to have our "own dessert chef" from now on! (Haha, sounds silly, but Emily has made us feel like family! ) I'm going to come back to add pics / edit if I can.. I don't have them toward the front of my phone and it could take hours to find them, but I will eventually!! Thank you Emily Wheeler Custom Cakes- you've made our lives so much sweeter!!

She did my best friend's wedding as well, both themes very different, but both turned out amazing! She was such a pleasure to work with. We kept in touch throughout my planning process and she easily made adjustments, and worked with our budget! My sweet table consisted of customized sugar cookies, cake pops, and lemon bars, as well as other assorted candies to tie in with my pastel color theme (light blue, pale pink, and peach). She supplied everything! Cake stands, candy jars, scoopers etc! It turned out wonderful! My guests still rave about the cake pops! I highly recommend her!

We ate it with garden salsa sun chips. I wish they'd had a larger size of the dip!! So good. We went in for breakfast this past Friday AM morning around 9:00a. There were a handful of people in the bakery but we were able to walk right up to the counter and order what we wanted. So many coffee options! We opted for a cherry danish, lemon poppyseed muffin, sausage roll, cinnamon cold brew and a mocha cold brew. The danish and sausage roll were very yummy! The bakery itself was very cute with it's colorful paintings and decor all around. The only I guess downside doesn't even have to do with the bakery itself. But we were there in the morning to enjoy coffee and bakery items and there was a child screaming the entire time. (I say this and I have an 8 year old myself). I wish it had been a little bit quieter but that doesn't have to do with the bakery itself. Unfortunately, I can't speak to the muffin.....we brought it back home to Massachusetts....and our cats ate it LOL. But they left no crumbs so I'm assuming it tasted good!

First, it's just so cute! As you approach, you can't help but notice the beautiful mural on the windows. Then you step inside of the most charming little bakery. There are tables for in-store dining and tasty treats everywhere. Cookies, pies, croissants, refrigerated salads and sweets, candied nuts and even Rice Krispie treats. These are just some of the items available. I've never been to a bakery with that many different offerings. Everything looked amazing and everyone in line lets us know that everything is delicious!!! Honestly I wanted a bit of everything, but I had to have some self control. In the end I walked away with muffins, bars, a Bundt cake, a cake pop and tiramisu (this was all shared with another person). Just like the other patrons said, I quickly learned that everything was in fact delicious! It was fresh and so, so good!!! The staff was very kind and I think that Rebecca herself came out and chatted with us briefly. This was my first visit, but definitely won't be my last. Absolutely worth the drive from Lexington.

    **Update: I received a very heartfelt message from the owner explaining their tough situation due…read moreto Covid, and asking that I please give them a chance to make this right..... in the end, all we want is to be heard and appreciated if we are choosing to spend our money and support a business- and after this message I felt both of those things. So, they may not have the rum cake I ordered, and they may be having some issues with their technology... but it seems like they have really delicious baked goods (according to other reviews), and they are working to solve the other problem. So, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.** I wish I had pictures to prove this..... but here is my experience. I placed an order for their rum cake ($45 for a Bundt cake). I did this through their website and it said it would be available to pick up at 11:50 a.m. I paid using their Squarespace website. I got a confirmation email, and was so excited because this is what my hubby wanted for his bday. I was just about to leave to pick it up at 1:15pm, when I got a call from the bakery saying "we don't know what your ordered, but you need to cancel the payment because we don't use our website. We only take orders over the phone or in person." What???? If you don't use it, why is it active? Turn it the eff off. It's very simple to do- I know bc I have used several Squarespace websites. This should be the end of my rant- but wait! It gets so much better! I proceeded to give them my order over the phone.... They told it would be ready in 30 minutes. I should have asked myself how they would bake a cake in 30 minutes- but, I'm a glutton for punishment.... And instead drove 30 minutes from my house to go get the desired rum cake. When I got there to pick it up- it was a 9" two layer cake with frosting. That is not a rum cake, nor is it what is pictured on their website! When I said, that isn't what I ordered- the response was "well, this is our rum cake". I left without the cake. And, now I have to contact my credit card company to dispute a charge that they claim they won't receive. Also- in case you're looking for quality, freshly made cakes..... they have 5 gallon buckets in their cooler at the front with long stem roses in them..... the buckets have labels on them that say "Sam's vanilla whipped icing". What a joke!

    Ok here's my updated review after we ate it. It was DELICIOUS! So moist and not too sweet. I truly…read moreloved the cake but I am still upset at the quality of my "custom" experience and lack there of on my cake. I was charged too much (more than regular off the shelf cake) and was given a less than customized product. I didn't appreciate her saying that the cake I chose from the Yelp picture was what they "used to do" but the picture was from 3 months ago. I have made future customers from everyone I had try it but I hope they don't receive a bad experience because I truly believe in this company and their product.

The bakery is co-owned by a local mother-daughter team! They make beautiful wedding cakes (a couple were there doing cake testings and creating their desired cake while we visited). The cake and frosting options looked amazing. In addition to wedding cakes they take orders for cakes, cookies, cupcakes, and a variety of pastries. Orders can be made in person or online. There are delightful servings of pastries (macaroons, cinnamon rolls, scones, tarts, cake slices and more) for sale in the shop. They also serve coffee, hot chocolate and cold drinks. My husband and I shared a slice of carrot cake and it was so moist and delicious. It was reminiscent of my grandmother's carrot cake that I enjoyed years ago. I suggest going early for the best selection, they sell out quickly! There are several seating areas if one chooses to eat in the shop and the space is decorated simply and elegantly. The baked goods take center stage! In addition, the bakery offers workshops and classes about cake decorating and more. Classes are offered for beginner level and for those with more experience. The space can be rented for bridal showers, baby showers and other events. The bakery is open Thur, Fri, and Sat (There are Tues and Wed hours available for pre-order pick up). Do yourself a favor, experience this wonderful bakery!

Prices may seem high, but they're totally worth it for the flavor and beauty. We could not get over how tasty the blackberry tart was. It had the perfect amount of sweet, salty, and tart! Every bite was heaven. We also got a triple berry croissant. It was stuffed with berries and cream. Very beautiful and delish! My only complaint is that they don't have prices listed in the store. That may be a good thing though because I could buy the whole store lol. You can order online and see prices there.
