Got my gender reveal cake here. It was ok- not the most delicious or moist cake I've ever had. I remember thinking it was a bit pricey and the decoration wasn't the most intricate. The person who took my order was efficient and also dry. She did not seem one bit excited to be working on a cake. Would it be my top choice for a cake? Probably not but they did deliver as promised. read more

A cool spot with everything you could ever need for your kitchen - I was shocked when I walked into the back room! Also, the donuts are incredible. read more

My son purchased a cake for me for my Birthday. It was the most horrible, embarrassing, experience of my life. When we took it out of the box, it start to slump to the side and the frosting started to ooze out. The frosting was so thick and gooey, at least two inches thick. Then, when we cut into the cake, there was an actual round hole going in sideways into the cake.. (a mouse?) I don't know. The cake was not great. I put it in the refrigerator that night trying to stabilize the oozing frosting. The next morning I took the remainder to my other son. They ate some. As they sat there the frosting collapsed and the frosting actually fell off the cake exposing a bare cake. They threw the cake out. I can't in any way imagine what happened in that kitchen, but it was terrible. read more

This place is underrated because you'd be surprised at how big this place is, as they have a lot of cooking equipment and supplies in the back. They stock some unusual food items (e.g., Stonewall Kitchen) and have a bakery up front. The bakery is definitely hit-or-miss on their items. For example, the Boston Cream Pie has consistently been the best I ever had, while the donuts are subpar and more often stale than not. read more

This place is a little hidden gem! I only stopped here do to a recommendation from a friend. It's a lot bigger in the inside than you expect. The offerings of kitchen and baking supplies is top notch. So weather you want supplies or fresh baked goods they have it and delicious! read more

This is the perfect place for anyone wanting to create a culinary masterpiece. They have anything that you can think of for baking, kitchen utensils, and kitchen appliances. I also love that they have a little bakery and coffee's area right when you walk in the door that has fresh baked goods that start off your morning on a sweet note. I had the apple cinnamon scone and it was delicious and perfectly made but wasn't as dry as usual scones that I've had in the past, which made this even more tasty. Would definitely recommend coming here for any of your kitchen or baking needs! read more

I love this place. They have amazing cookies, donuts, cakes, and brownies. I always try and hit them up when I'm out that way, which isn't often anymore sadly. You can't go wrong stopping here. read more

Wow this place has everything. Wines, beer including local Ohio assortments. Cooking gadgets, mixers, cookie and cake supplies. I could spend all day wondering around looking at the mass selection of goods. I know you are wondering then why only 2 stars? They have crammed 10lbs in a 2lb bag. The place is so small. Aisles are narrow and they have crap on the floors and hanging from the shelves. No place for 2 shoppers to pass in the aisles and made me feel a bit trapped. The aisles were a maze. I think they may have outgrown the current space. read more

I gave up on their filled sticks as they are only about half filled. Without the filling, the other half is not worth eating as it's too dry. I live close by, but do not frequent them as I have (like other reviewers) been served by rude workers. The apple fritters are excellent. read more

The cakes we ordered here were good but the lady working the counter was not friendly at all. They also encourage you to have an alcoholic beverage on their patio but have no bathroom available to the public. Never seen anything like that in my life ‍. Very strange to say the least. read more

Always friendly and willing to help with your needs. We travel from out of town to specifically visit with Baker's kitchen.

Great stop on a Sunday morning for a donut and coffee to go. The two employees, one named Grace, were very friendly and quick behind the counter. The donuts are amazing!! We had a festive pumpkin donut and blueberry donut. We grabbed a coffee to go, there were several choices, one of which was pumpkin spice. read more

One of the best bakeries that I have ever been to and believe me I have been to quite a few. I almost always have their cake. It is is so delicious! I love that you can buy it by the slice. If you do buy a whole cake, any leftovers freeze great. The cake is moist and tender whether fresh from the store or right out of you freezer. The store in the back has a great variety of baking goods and supplies. I even found a $17 Cuisinart can opener for my daughter. Everyone is friendly and helpful here. Don't miss this gem! read more

So this review is on the actual cake that I ordered. I had ordered a cake for my friend's gender reveal party. They were good about working with us to offer to die the cake pink or blue if we needed. But we opted to do a 2 layer chocolate cake with pink/blue frosting in the middle (it was $1 extra to do the 2 layers with frosting in the middle) We only needed a small cake so we ordered a 6 inch round cake which was $8.99 which I thought was a good deal since they let us choose the flavor, and they decorated it how we liked. (This does NOT include any 3D fondant embellishments like letters, flowers or figurines. Those would cost extra and I believe would be priced as wedding cakes.) Note: Having the cake decorated in fondant costs more. Also, I recommend taking in a picture if you have a specific design in mind. I had previously used Thrush's to order a cake for my friend years ago and we took a picture in and the cake came out exactly how we wanted. This time, I didn't have time to print a picture and the design we wanted was pretty simple so I just showed the picture to the guy taking the order. The design didn't come out exactly what we had wanted but it was too late to change it (my friend wanted medium/large size polka dots going around the cake kind of like in this link: http://simplysweetsaz.blogspot.com/2011/05/gender-reveal-cake-pink-or-blue.html but they ended up being really tiny dots instead.) Not a big deal but not exactly what she wanted. I did notice that this cake that we ordered did have some flaws (as opposed to the cake I had ordered years ago). I'm not sure if that's because we picked it up the day before we needed it. They told us to store it in the fridge and it'd be ok. When we took the cake out the next day, there was a crack in the fondant on the one side. Also, the cake was kind of lopsided, which you can see in pictures when you look at the cake from the side. As for the taste, it was a chocolate cake with buttercream frosting and tasted pretty good. I gave Thrush's 4 stars because I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt and chalking up the flaws (crack and being lopsided) to the fact that we picked it up the day before. I'll probably use them again in the future but will remember to: 1) Take in a picture of the cake 2) They require at least 2 days notice for special order cakes 3) pick up the cake the same day it's needed if possible read more

I don't use this bakery enough, but when I do the cakes have always been wonderful. Family always requests cakes from Thrush's bakery. Ordered my granddaughter's 16th birthday cake from there can't wait to get for her. We have never had any problems there, cakes have always delicious. read more

I ordered candy supplies. They were very helpful. The only thing was butterscotch crunch has not butterscotch flavor in it. It is coconut. Just a heads up. I was disappointed but it will not stop me from purchasing from them. read more

This has been a business we have patronized many times both for makes goods and items in the store, but that will happen no longer. When an inquiry was made my one of my children regarding a current position the person she talked with was very rude and made the comment that "being a college student wanting to work for the summer was of little value to them". I understand that seasonal employment isn't always ideal, but having some tact in stating that would go a long way. read more

Amazing pastries. It to mention they were playing Prince when I walked in. Great assortment to choose from. They made dog treats as well. read more

We got a cake for my bridal shower at Thrush's and I will admit is was really good! We would maybe go there again for something not as significant. We feel like the person who wrote on the cake needs better handwriting and we don't understand why the writing is so small! It made the cake look amateur-ish. It was pretty disappointing. read more

The Baker's Kitchen By Thrush's - Looks pretty amateur-ish so we were disappointed by that. The taste was good but never get a dark color frosting. It dyes your mouth. - Bakeries Near Me - Maumee, Ohio

The best donuts and apple fritters! We love going in to look at all the kitchen gadgets and always walk out with a dozen donuts!

I purchased a package of ready to use fondant from them and expressed my concern that the product was hard as a rock. I was reassured that this was normal and that I just had to work it. After attempting to work it and knead it for half an hour and only ending up with sore hands I checked that package and saw that it expired over a year ago. The event that I need it for is in two days and I don't have the time to go in so I called to inform them about the expired product and they were not apologetic and didn't seem to care that their products are on the shelves well past date. I was very excited about having such a large kitchen store close by but now I will it be shopping with them ever again! read more

I love this gem! It is a haven for cooking and baking supplies. They also have booze and delicious food in addition to their decadent pastries and cakes. I may have tasted every pastry and every wine here. It is a great place to visit and I highly recommend their cakes. My family has been ordering birthday cakes from here for years and they never disappoint! read more

Great selection of items if overpriced. General costs are a good 25% above other shops. The balsamic olive oil selections are fantastic and delicious. I've tried many of the various baked goods and generally find them to be overly sweet and somewhat commercial tasting. If you like a lot of frosting and sugar this is the place for you. If you're looking for a delicate pastry I would look somewhere else. They could certainly do with a redesign of the checkout area. You cannot get to the kitchen store without throwing a few elbows at people standing at the pastry counter. read more

I have ordered supplies, mostly sprinkles, from this company. Their prices are affordable, unfortunately their packaging is pretty terrible. Every time I order sprinkles, they never put any cushioning or protection so the sprinkles bounce around the box and they bust open. My last order of sprinkles had to be delivered in a USPS box because sprinkles were making a mess in the post office!!! But they have blocked me from being a customer because they've had "to many problems shipping to our address". Um, what kind of customer service is that??? Unacceptable. After this, I'll never order from them again. It's not my fault that you don't know how to pack your products. Once they're out of packaging, they're contaminated and cannot be used. read more

Did not get a chance to check out the whole place, went there for donuts, but looked like a cool place with good variety of stuff. Donuts were great, only issue is the very small walkway where people are trying to walk through while your trying to checkout the donut display. Not an optimal set up. But would definitely go back and recommend you check it out. read more

The store itself is pretty amazing with all the supplies. It was a bakers dream. I ordered a birthday cake from here and requested to have it covered in sprinkles. They happily did it. When I picked it up, there were some bald spots. Unacceptable since I paid extra for it. The young girl fixed it, not the friendliest. Overall, once fixed it was perfect. Presentation and flavor were great. read more

I went to pick up my daughters Birthday cake and the young lady said it was going to be $26.99. I told her that they quoted me $21.99 on the phone. She said that it was a special design and that it was $5 extra. I noticed then that the handwriting was smudged and there was black icing running down the side of the cake. I almost thought I don't want this, but I did not want to disappoint my daughter. With my unhappy purchase, I took it home. My daughter was less than impressed and said I could have done a better job! If we had her friends over, she would have been embarrassed! I called the office the next day and left a message, no one returned my call. I went in two days later and explained the situation and showed the manager the pictures. I told her about being charged the extra $5 for the design. She barely acknowledged what I was saying and was busy refunding my $5. She did not apologize or ask to make it right! I am extremely disappointed with the service. We have been going there for years and have had excellent cakes! You just lost my business!! read more

I picked up a cake Friday that I ordered for my husband's birthday.

I had a major craving for an eclair so I packed up my son and took a trip to Monclova to get one. While there I grabbed some other goodies for my other son and husband and we were on our way. I went to take a bit of the eclair and it was frozen. I was so disappointed and did not want to wait. I got a fudge frosted brownie that was perfect. I also got a cream puff. While not frozen the cream puff seemed to have seen better days, lots of other days. It was definitely stale and the cream filling had zero flavor and had a fake texture about it. I actually wondered if I was eating a display. It was awful. My husband had a bite and we threw it away. Seems they are more of a wine sale store than a bakery anymore. read more

After taste testing a few bakeries around town, Thrush's had the best flavors and the best tasting wedding cake by far! I was also very impressed at how great the design on our cake turned out! I did have a few issues with how they generally run their business, however. With most vendors, I had a point of contact- someone that I could email or ask for by name over the phone who was familiar with me and the services they would be providing for my wedding. That really didn't exist at Thrush's. I spoke with many different people and ultimately, I don't even know the name of the person who baked or decorated our cake. "Appointments" don't exist there. You just kind of show up and hope that someone is free to speak with you. Being an out of town bride, it was also a little frustrating that Thrush's did not have an email that I could use to correspond with them. I was a little worried if our cake was going to turn out how we hoped, but ultimately, it turned out wonderful and was exactly what I had imagined! Ultimately I would only recommend their services if you live in town and are able to go there personally to handle all questions and planning. read more
