I am truly excited to see how everything turns out- both the eye "candy" of how beautiful it will all look, and also how amazing it will all taste! Can't wait until October 4 , 2022! Definitely will use Amanda for all my dessert needs in the future! Update: Cannot say enough AMAZING things about Amanda, her work, how yummy her baked goods taste, and how hard she works to make sure you get what you want, and that it is PERFECT! She did our wedding cake and groom's pie (he doesn't like cake).....however, Amanda is such a great baker that he loved her cake! For our 1-year anniversary I will definitely have Amanda make some goodies to celebrate along with another gooseberry pie for his birthday in August! Cannot wait to taste those amazing, sweet treats! Thanks Amanda!!!

Went to their food truck at the Kiowa rodeo. I sampled the Caramel Fudge Crunch and was shocked to…read moretaste peanuts (the flavor placard only featured chocolate and caramel drizzle). I then said such and was told (rudely) that it contains peanuts. I am severely allergic to nuts. Their flavors are listed on placards just stating the flavor w/ absolutely no indication of a nut allergen (which is illegal ). The only allergen signage I saw was in the back on the freezers, primarily out of view of customers and just said something about cross contamination I believe. Once I was told it was nuts I explained how it would've been nice for the allergen to be disclosed because I am allergic, to which the woman working responded with ZERO empathy, concern, or even a simple "sorry". Because of their carelessness I had to miss the majority of the event I paid for and go in an ambulance. Today we contacted the owner over the phone and were met with nothing but a rude, defensive and arrogant response. He took zero responsibility, never apologized, never sounded understanding, and blamed me (the girl who could've died) for the entire incident. This lack of disclosure and disregard for laws and consumer safety could have easily killed someone. Peanuts are the most common allergy ESPECIALLY among YOUNG CHILDREN. Imagine it was a 5 year old instead of me. Edit: I immediately contacted my parents and went to EMS. I was laughing because I was in shock and scared of going into anaphylaxis (laughter is a common defense mechanism). I was 17 at the time (18 now) and am extremely informed on how to manage my allergies and have been taught since a young age. Yes I should've asked BUT there should be some sort of allergy indicator on the flavor placard, which is all I'm asking for. I ordered another flavor along with a water as a means to wash down the allergen in my system (a technique that anyone with food allergies can recognize). Bottom line is customer service was subpar (never received an apology) and there should be some sort of indication of allergies ON THE FLAVOR PLACARD.

Inspired by my grandmother's passion for baking, I pour my heart into crafting everything from our signature sourdough scones and flavorful cookies to our charming cakes and rustic breads.

Whether you're indulging in a classic cannoli or enjoying one of our gluten-friendly goodies, you'll taste the difference that comes from baking with love and attention to detail.

An overnight trip in Pueblo plus a really bad sweet tooth took me directly to Bite Me Cake, and I'm…read moreglad for it. I am rarely this far south so am unfamiliar with the bakery options around town; Bite Me was one of the closest, highest rated spots right near the hotel I was staying in. The photos and vibe looked really great based on others' reviews, so I decided to stop in late on a Saturday not to get my sugar fix lol. The atmosphere is fun, and the mish mash of sweets, games, and a downstairs bar I think is super unique and also makes this place more appealing for people that want to bring kids around earlier in the day. Despite going late (I think it was around 8?), the arcade was pretty full of people, which was a great sign. The bakery case and menu is at the back, and there was one very sweet girl (no pun intended lol) running the counter. Even for the time, there were lots of options that all looked like they were pretty good and not obviously stale or old from the day which I really appreciated. There is also ice cream and a refrigerator case of goodies in addition to what's shown here, as well as various beverages you can purchase. I decided to splurge on a cherry cupcake, a cheesecake cookie with cherries, and a brookie. The total was around $12 or so, which was pretty reasonable. I took my treats back to the hotel to enjoy them while watching a show, and they were all delicious! Definitely satisfied my craving for something sweet after a long day. I think this place would be very fun for a date night or a small family outing during the day, presuming it's isn't busy inside as it seems like it can easily feel crowded. Parking is available on the street and may be a bit of a challenge depending on the day and time you stop in, but the downtown area is pretty walkable and more parking accommodations can be found further away. Stop in if you get a chance! I probably will next time I'm in town.

I finally decided to stop in this cute little shop and try it for myself... had to do it for the Yelp! And omg I'm so glad I did. The berry tilly cupcake is absolutely amazing! Seriously I have no idea how they get the cake so soft. I'm usually a chocolate girl but every single white cake cupcake from this place is so good. The chocolate cupcakes are delicious but it's more like a dense dark chocolate cake... while it hit the spot, the texture wasn't like the berry tilly. I also tried the chocolate cream pie based on a recommendation from the staff and I was pleasantly surprised! They have a great team working the counter. I plan on going back to try more from the menu and ordering a custom cake for a bday!

I got to Yelp in Castle Rock today. And it was for this cute cake shop in the heart of Castle Rock…read moredowntown. And it's none other than the Cake Company. I had a side hustle job assignment in the very neighborhood mid-afternoon. And I simply didn't want to go there, work, leave and get home; I wanted to discover a business I have never been to. I hence googled bakeries and this cake shop came up. According to a little research, this shop opened its doors in January of 2021 by two sisters who are Colorado natives. This element added more excitement to my quick visit I made today. The Cake Company is adorable. From the exterior signage to the interior decors, everything that decorates the whole space matches the theme of the store. Mostly pink and off-white, they not only sell beautifully crafted cupcakes, pies, rice crispies, cinnamon rolls, to name a few, they also sell some gifts such as wine glasses, t-shirts, journal books, tote bags, mug cups, I mean you name it!! I was at awe standing in front of the showcase that displays all sorts of sweets. When one of the ladies upfront greeted me with a very peppy welcoming tone, she kindly said to take my time. I thus allowed myself to be indecisive for several minutes to take my time (LOL!!) Whereas the pies and cheesecakes to the right looked amazing, they also appeared a bit too big and decadent. Since I only needed one good piece of some delicious something, I opted for a cupcake as they aren't as big as the other sweets. Upon asking the same lady which ones are the most popular, she said it was either Berry Tilly or Better Than Sex. My instinct told me to go with the latter: Better Than Sex. The different lady transacted my purchase. She carefully put my cupcake in a single cupcake box. Just so you know, their boxes are tilt-free so your sweet stuff won't tilt inside it (unless you violently shake the box!) The cupcakes are $6 each. And yet, if you buy 6 or more, each price is reduced to $5.50 up to 11. If you buy 12 or more, each price is reduced to $5.00. 20% discount will be added if you purchase 3 dozens. The shop does sell gluten free ones and yet any of the discounts I mentioned don't appear to apply to them. After the purchase, I looked to the left to discover a little entry way to the store next door. It's Lost Coffee. The customers are free to go in and out between the two shops. This means that you can take your cupcake to the next store and have some coffee or tea to pair with it. This is another store that has this symbiotic relationship with their next-door neighbor business. I always find the concept so intriguing. Businesses help each other. As soon as I got back to my car, I immediately opened the box and started to dig in. And wow....I know this is such an ordinary statement but I will say it: this is/was by far the best cupcake I've ever had. It was perfectly moist in the sponge part with the perfect sweetness. After one bite, it was simply impossible for me to stop eating it although I wanted to save some for later. The cupcake thus disappeared so quickly in a matter of 2-3 minutes. Their cupcakes are phenomenal. There is no way you'll buy cupcakes from other places once you have experienced theirs. I am already pondering as to when I should go back. Discovering great businesses bring me joy; this is why I can never stop Yelping.
