I finally made it out to the Cake Drip!! I have to say I was missing out!! From the moment I stepped in I knew I was gonna have a great time. The vibe took over. We were greeted by Ayla. She was so gracious and explained how the tasting would go and brought us champagne. Once the bubbles started flowing we got to choose what we would put in our chocolate bars. I put potato chips, toffee bits, and m&m's. Our bars were taken to harden.We got cheesecake and chocolate spoons to sample. They were each divine. Finally we got a dessert box filled with cake, marshmallows, dipping chocolate and sprinkles. Again everything was delicious!! We took a few pictures while we waited for our bars. There are definitely lots of photo opportunities. We also got to meet the owner Faronda who was so sweet and ensured we were having a good time. Ayla brought us our bars and they were wrapped in grinch paper. My bar was soo good!!!! The service, the experience, and the desserts were impeccable. I absolutely cannot wait to go back. As a matter of fact I already booked a girls day for February. You got to go!!!

Take home dessert box included with each flight to be shared w double booking or sent with single booking

This is a very unique and enjoyable way to hang out and spend an evening. My friends and I decided to go with the chocolate flights which was $45pp or $65 per couple. This included champagne throughout the event your choice of chocolate three toppings for your chocolate bar(s) and a unique dessert box which included marshmallows, fresh fruit, cake bites. Making our own chocolate bars was perfection. You can choose between milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate. I had 3 add ins which I choose sea salt, walnuts, and almonds. This small business owner has a great eye for service and is sure to fit anyone's sweet tooth! We made reservations in advance for our group and happen to have the whole place to ourselves, plenty of photo ops and laughs with friends. A special thank you to Ms. Faronda, she and her family were a pleasure and my friends and I enjoyed this unique twist on the popular DIY workshops. Me and my friends truly had a blast! Looking forward to a cake decorating event!

I just wanted a chocolate bar so I used the kiosk outside the location. It was quick and easy to use. They have a lot of options for toppings and you choose your top 3. I choose caramel, toffee, and cake pieces. I wish they put more description for the cake to let me know that it was pink cake. I assumed it was going to be vanilla cake so I would have made a different topping decision if I knew it was pink cake. However, the chocolate bar still came out great. It is huge and made with quality chocolate. They tell you it takes about 30 minutes and my bar was ready in exactly that time. I will definitely go back to try out the full experience soon.

What a great place to go with your daughter, mother, sister, girlfriends, or anyone who enjoys cakes & desserts. The place is decorated so beautiful! Very Instagramable. I took my mother & friend we did the chocolate flight. Unlimited champagne & tons of yummy desserts to try. They also offer cake decorating workshop.

I always like to be as inclusive as possible especially when I write reviews because I want people to understand my point of view as well as understanding that the review can only go so far and one has to take the leap of faith and make the experience their own. I read other reviews dedicated to The Cake Drip and I am here to debunk them entirely. Many wish to say that this place is a ¨gimmick¨and in this case it is, but in a positive manner. The Cake Drip isńt an establishment that´s trying to sell you their hopes and dreams and scam you rather provide you with a beautiful experience in the form of chocolate. If I can compare it directly to something I would say that The Cake Drip is similar to the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory and I don't say that lightly. The Cake Drip is absolutely fantastic and it made my happiness level sky rocket. As you can see by my photos, if you love photography just like I do this is a perfect place for you to visit. If you love chocolate and a light-hearted ambiance this is also the place for you! I cam here to celebrate life with my parents because I will be going to college soon and the owners made our experience unforgettable. The owners are extremely inviting and caring and their daughter is professional and always on top of her game. If you want to go on a date with your lover, some friends or maybe want to go on a fun chocolate adventure with yourself, this is the place to go! Also, I want to add that the restrooms are top notch and full of feminine products, which is very helpful. This establishment is also only 21+ so make sure you keep this into consideration. Enjoy!

I first saw a video of the Cake Drip on Tiktok and knew I had to come here. Had so much fun! Didn't expect it would be this fun. My friends and I had a blast too. At the time of creating the reservation I was told it would be an hour experience roughly. We ended up staying for about 2.5 hours. We just enjoyed each other's company and socialized while completing our flight. We all did the chocolate flight tasting. I created a white chocolate bar with sea salt, caramels, and sour patches. So tasty even to experience the other ladies DIY chocolate bars. I will definitely be back in the near future. The business is family oriented. Boy are they super sweet too! Enjoyed them being around for fun conversation, pictures, and serving us. Cake Drip is the new way to enjoy desserts after work. If you're seeking Instagram places, this is it in Hyde Park.

We had a great experience here for a friends birthday. There was 10 of us and the staff was more than accommodating for us. It's a perfect backdrop for cute pictures and they gave us a light to make sure we had the best shots. We got cute glasses of champagne as we sat down. They have a non alcoholic option too. Bless the guy who had to take care of us because we drove him crazy asking questions and taking forever to choose our bars. He made it fun for us. For the experience, we started off making our own chocolate bar. Put the toppings on and they took it in the back to set it. While it set we had a round of cheesecake with chocolate spoons then a big box of cake with toppings to decorate. Each time we got glasses of champagne. We took cute pics laughed and danced. Make sure you make reservations especially if you have a big group!

One of the dessert boxes you get. 4 bite sized cakes, strawberries and marshmallows with a chocolate dip and sprinkles

Went to Cake Drip for a friend's birthday. We did the chocolate bar experience and had a fantastic time. Cake drip is a great place for a first time date, a girls night out, an anniversary or just something fun to do. The owner and her staff were great. They explained everything as we went. I would certainly do it again! I 1000% recommended you check it out!

Rashad K.

The best way to end date night is with dessert of course. This hidden gem in the south Howard area was perfect. This place was nothing but good vibes all around. I think it may be tailored more towards a girls night out but nonetheless it's still enjoyable with a significant other. Make sure you go hungry because they give you plenty of desserts . This was a great experience and definitely something very unique that you won't find in too many places. I was able to try the make your own candy bar and it was a really cool experience. The desserts were great and the service was on point. I will definitely have to come back to fulfill my sweet tooth cravings. I fully support any black owned business.

such a cute date night spot! Made a resy and took my bf for our anni, and he loved it! First, our servers were the sweetest and so attentive! They give you complimentary champagne, I had around 4-5 glasses (not stingy about it). We both created our own chocolate bars. While waiting for the chocolate to set, we had cheesecake that came with chocolate spoons, as well as pound cake, strawberries, and chocolate dip with pink sprinkles. The place is obviously stunning, and the playlist is phenomenal. So many throwbacks that I appreciated. The vibe was giving what it needed to give. My chocolate bar came out tasty! My only suggestion is to have an alternative for cheesecake for those who are lactose (me) lol. Thankfully they had dark chocolate as an option for the chocolate bars, which didn't irritate my stomach. Overall, such a fun and creative experience to do with the girls or a partner!

Jenette S.

It's very unique that is for sure. I'm all for gimmick places but if I wasn't drunk when I saw the portion sizes come out I would have said something. Looking back at it, it is a gimmick place so you should check it out so you have IG content for like months... Lots of places to take pictures. The DJ was fun and everyone was dancing like we were at a club.

The decor here to TO DIE FOR!!! So cute!!! Very thought out for the gram!! The service was very good!! Food was average, not bad but nothing to rave about. Wish they would have had the chocolate experience every day so we could do that!

The Cake Drip is a wonderful addition to Hyde Park Village. The shop is whimsically decorated with fun, upbeat music. We made a reservation for a chocolate flight for two. We split the flight ($65 in total). The flight includes: 2 customizable chocolate bars to take home, ,champagne, a "sushi" chocolate board, and a "fondue" tasting. The owner, Veronica, is absolutely amazing. She and her daughter were extremely friendly and tended to our every need. We started off with a glass of champagne each and customized our chocolate bars. We selected the chocolate type as well as our three toppings, which were all brought to us so that we could create the chocolate bar ourself. There was quite the variety of topping options, ranging from fruit to bacon bits and potato chips. We then had the "sushi" chocolate tasting, comprising of 3 types of cheesecake, 3 chocolate spoons (milk, white and dark chocolate) as well as some fresh strawberries. The chocolate was delicious and we enjoyed the presentation. The last "course" was the fondue course. Since my date has celiacs, they modified the board to include macaroons rather than cake. We were also given strawberries, sprinkles, homemade marshmallows and of course chocolate. Overall, this was a great experience in a prime location. I was particularly fond of the music (R&B / modern rap). Veronica informed me that they also have live music on Friday nights starting at 7 pm. We will be returning!

Umm no. I think this Is all hype. It's $65 to make a chocolate bar. You get some pieces of cake and champagne. But honestly it's not worth it at all. The waiter tried to charge me twice. And we had to ask for basic items like napkins. If you're looking for somewhere to take some IG collateral than this is your spot. Otherwise. Don't waste your time or money read more

The owner/ manager was extremely rude, short, and unprofessional. I walked by and wanted to patronize this establishment. There was no one inside but him sitting at a computer. The door was wide open so I proceeded to walk inside. I snapped a photo believing that I was about to be seated. However, the manager states I need to stop taking picture unless I have a reservation. I ask him okay well when I can make a reservation. He said we don't open til 4 and no reservations til 5pm. He doesn't offer to make a reservation. He doesn't tell me about Cake Drip or anything just extremely short. I wish I would give them my business. This place had a cute concept but unfortunately their lack of customer service will be their downfall. read more

If I could give this a 0, I would. Not only was the hostess not welcoming, the quality of product did not add up to a $10 slice of cake. Where is the frosting between layers? Why are the toppings thrown to the side? Could you warm it up at least? Just overall disappointing and I hope the owner reads this and improves, or unfortunately this late night bakery will not be around for long. Do better. read more

I saw many people posting on Instagram and TikTok ...so when in Tampa I went there. In my opinion this place is not worth what you pay. It's okay for maybe tea, but the deserts are overwhelming. Too much, too sweet. The price is insane maybe worth half that. Good for young girls birthday's or something of that sort. Although they don't want kids there. This place is more suitable for them. The experience was a little too childish for me. Also, No guy will want to go in with you...to this flower-full place and much less pay $55 plus per person for a desert. My suggestion lower price to $24.99 plus tax and tip. And offer it to teens at least. Definitely Not a grownup thing! There are many other places you can visit with better deserts and better decor for much less. read more

This place has been saved on my places to go list but never made it out there. I use to go to the Hyde Park area more back in the day but now I have to have a reason and Cake Drip was the reason. I went with a couple girlfriends and it was such a nice treat...pun intended. We sat outside because we got treats from the outside kiosk which was very easy to use. We were getting ready to sit outside and enjoy the nice weather when a nice young lady came outside and asked us if we wanted to sit inside. We told her we heard that you have to make reservations to sit inside and get the experience. The young lady gave us information on how everything works and told us we could come inside because it wasn't their busy time yet. We sat, took pics, enjoyed the music and dope ambience. The owner came out and greeted us. We took pics with her and did a boomerang for Instagram. Cuz you know nothing actually happens unless it ends up on the gram lol. We loved this place and will be coming back for the full experience next time. read more

Very disappointing experience. The owner came over and flashed a bottle of Dom at us and told us it was for him only. Then he walked away. It was very rude and awkward. The chocolate brand is not upscale, the waitress wasn't even aware of the brand. They make you pay prior to the experience and discuss who is paying for what. I was hoping for a much more elevated experience. I hope they improve on their customer service. read more

A little disappointed, for $65 I definitely expected more of an upscale experience. The presentation of everything was done so cheaply, we were served on cafeteria trays and to go boxes... we also had to continuously ask for champagne refills and waited a while each time so the hour and a half we were there (3 of us) we each got 2 glasses and mind you there was only 1 other table of people there. Don't let the Instagram fool you, you do not get dom perignon... u get cheap champagne. Anyone hyping this place up clearly doesn't know how to have a fun time. I only recommend this place for pictures if you really need to pay to get pictures, this is your spot. read more

FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE!! I can't say enough about the fabulous service at the Cake Drip. My friend and I were planning a surprise party for another friend and we ordered their Drunk Barbie cake. I was meant to pick it up March 27th. When I showed up, however, I found out my friend accidentally ordered the cake for April 2nd! So the poor people didn't have our cake ready, understandably. This was totally our fault. But they came through right before my eyes! She grabbed a cake, and got all the extras together (icing, fondant, sprinkles, the Barbie, the little plastic toilet, the mini liquor bottles, sticks, scissors) right then. We had also ordered popcorn and macrons, which they also pulled together for us on the spot. I was so impressed with their kindness to pull together an order on the spot and attention to detail when we made the mistake of ordering everything for the wrong day. And everything was delicious. The Cake Drip rocked and came through to make my friend's surprise super special! I cannot recommend the Cake Drip highly enough!!! read more

We walked past Cake Drip in the middle of the afternoon on a weekday and decided to check it out. We saw a kiosk outside and were confused what the process was. There are no signs explaining that you can not come inside without a reservation. It was hot outside like usual so we came inside. The place was empty except for one table. The owner asked how she could help us. She did not smile. We said we wanted to check them out and have some dessert. Then she said we could order our dessert outside to go. We were not allowed at a table without a reservation. She did not explain why or what the reservation was all about. We were just passing by and did not know all about this business and the reservation requirement. So we just left and went to a different dessert spot. We were a little puzzled why an empty business would turn us away so we looked up the reservations and now understood it was a whole experience. It would have been nice if the owner took a few minutes to explain that to us so we did not feel like we were so unwelcome because we did not make a reservation for dessert for a weekday afternoon. I must say this was a strange experience to feel like you were bothering someone to want to give them some business. read more

Epicurean Theatre

My husband and I had the most incredible date night at the Epicurean Theatre! We attended the…read more"Dinner with a Master Chef" class on Friday, July 18th 2014. Our instructor was celebrity chef, Whitney Miller, winner of Master Chef (season 1). The Epicurean Theatre is a gorgeous and very modern culinary classroom in the Epicurean Hotel in South Tampa. The culinary classroom has a kitchen in the front of the theatre for the instructor/ chef and stadium-style seating for the students. (If you want a seat near the front of the class arrive early!) Flat screen televisions are located in the front corners of the classroom to display close-ups of the food as it is being prepared. The layout of the classroom allows participants to eat and drink while watching a cooking presentation. After the chef completes each course of the meal the Epicurean's wait staff serves the dish. Whitney Miller was so charming and entertaining throughout our class. I loved her stories about growing up in Mississippi and being a contestant on the Master Chef. Her menu in our class included some of her favorite Southern dishes: First Course: Arugula Salad with Grilled Figs, Homemade Buttermilk Ricotta Cheese, Crispy Prosciutto and a Citrus Vinaigrette (Wine Pairing: Schiopetto Pinot Grigio) Second Course: BBQ Shrimp and Cheese Grits (Wine Pairing: Black Bird Rose) Third Course: White Chocolate Bread Pudding (Wine Pairing: Rosa Regale) Everything was so delicious and I cannot wait to make these dishes at my home! Confession: I probably won't make my own ricotta cheese for the arugula salad because who has time for that?! We received so many great cooking tips from the class and I plan on purchasing Whitney's cookbook so I can introduce my husband to more Southern cooking. If you are interested in taking a class at the Epicurean Theatre I highly recommend it! They offer a variety of classes from cupcakes to cooking to wine or even speaking a foreign language. They even offer brew bus tours! The classes range from $45-$125. Our Master Chef class cost $65 per person which wasn't a bad deal in my opinion considering we received a two hour demonstration from a celebrity chef, a three course meal, and three wine tastings. Can't wait to take my next class at the Epicurean Theatre!

Just like you see on cooking shows, Beth stood in front of the 3-tiered seating area, with a camera on her, and a camera overhead showing inside the pot she was cooking in. Beth is an experienced baker, and I loved that in addition to demonstrating how to make the Bourbon Chocolate Pecan cupcake, she also gave us helpful tips for substitutions and shortcuts. In addition to cupcakes, the event included 3 cocktails, specially designed to compliment the cupcakes we would be taking home. Pumpkin Prosecco - made of champagne and pureed pumpkin, Hard Apple Cider - made with gin, cider, and fresh crushed grapes, and a Bourbon Cocktail - but after the first two drinks, I have no recollection of what went into this last one. It was great, though! :-) Roger, the bartender from the hotel restaurant Élevage, came in each time to explain his concoction, which was really a nice personal touch. After Beth demonstrated how to make the first cupcake, all the participants went down to group stations where we got to frost our own cupcakes. She had all the different cupcakes lined up for us, as well as the different bags of frosting. First we did our own Bourbon Chocolate Pecan cupcake - by scooping out the inside to fill it with pecan filling, then frosting it with a thick bourbon chocolate buttercream, and sprinkling roasted pecans on top. Next was the Hard Apple Cider cupcakes with cinnamon buttercream. And finally we did the Pumpkin Spice cupcake, with a sweet cream cheese frosting. I have to admit, there was a LOT of taste-testing the frosting, even after the cupcakes were all frosted. Beth even provided plastic cupcake containers, so our 6 masterpieces (2 of each flavor) could travel in safety and comfort. I would definitely do another event here - it was very well organized, and in addition to the promised take home cupcakes, we were also provided with recipes on how to make the different cupcakes and frosting. The only thing that wasn't cool, and wasn't mentioned ahead of time, is that you had to pay $5 for valet, which also meant tipping too. I think the Epicurean Hotel needs to include this in the cost of the class, or let people self-park in the spots they have available for the wine store or bakery. Other than the parking, an A+ event from start to finish. Support local small businesses and go check out Beth's webpage, too - yum!

Three friends and I took a macaron baking class with Muriel at her gorgeous Bellevue home and it…read moretotally changed my idea of macarons. I am not a fancy baker (I do uncomplicated cookies, pies, simple breads, etc.) and have never understood the macaron craze that's still going strong. In this class, I learned that they are quite challenging to make and are mouthwateringly delicious when correctly and precisely made--I think I just never tried ones so good as these! The fun in baking them is how challenging they are and imagining all the possible color and flavor combinations. It was a great experience for me and my girlfriends and Muriel was an excellent teacher. First, she made a batch of strawberry macarons and explained very clearly what she was doing every step of the way, including how to gauge if you've done it correctly. Next, we paired up and made a different flavor on our own (coffee and black olive in this case). Muriel helped us every step of the way and sent recipes and videos afterwards. I can't wait to try to make them again without Muriel's help! (Fingers crossed). Word to the wise: if you go on a weeknight, eat dinner first! There's a small snack of crackers, cheese, and prosciutto provided.

This time around we got the Huevos Bulla, which was relatively hearty with the salty ham and gooey egg, with the potato chips providing a lot of crunchy texture to the dish. We also got the Grilled Steak, which was a new dish for me to try. This is probably going to be one of my favorite dishes from now on. The steak was tender and the truffle foam was to die for (even after the meat was gone i was eating that sauce up, no leftovers). Another new try for me was the seasonal Lamb Cannelloni. The lamb was gamey and the wrapping was soft. The sauce it came with definitely helped enhance the flavor; without the sauce it was just okay. I order the Kalimotxo drink, which, with the cola and lemon, helped brighten up the wine-forward drink.

The flavors blended so well together. I wanted to eat more. Garlic prawns were delish, and shareable, the braised short rib udon was also tasty. The salmon crudo was 3/5, it could've used more flavor. End of the night they offered us free ice cream- tasted like coffee with other delish vanilla and crushed ube cookie.

Our waitress Bella made up for it. She was great and steered my husband toward the Chicken Katsu BLT over Ro's burger. Good call -- it was mighty, so come hungry. Well prepared, not greasy for a deep-fried meal. The Negroni was delicious and very well stirred. The food got more uneven from there. The crown roll was just ok -- heavy on the rice, the crab was tough, the yuzu-kosho tuna on top was very good. On the sashimi, the hamachi was good but the akami missed. I'm used to bluefin melting in my mouth and this didn't -- it tasted far from fresh and left a strong aftertaste. Overall, the sushi quality wasn't worth the price. Bottom line: great service from Bella and a solid cocktail, but the sushi didn't deliver for what you pay.

The bartender greeted me immediately and introduced himself, and in no time at all I had a delicious limoncello spritz in front of me. Inside the restaurant everything was sleek, clean, and bright, and the jazz piped in from the live music outside added the perfect ambiance. I had made reservations, so we were sat exactly at our time. I highly recommend making reservations because this place filled up quickly and stayed busy the entire time we were there. Our very friendly and knowledgeable server let us order off of the happy hour menu, so my friends and I split a variety of items. First - bread with the 3 dips - you absolutely must get this. Second - fried zucchini balls. While I did like them, I wish they were smaller so the inside was a little more cooked. Third - Creamy Tomato Vodka Pasta - yummy with a bit of kick! This was my favorite food item. Fourth - Queen Stella Margherita pizza. Surprisingly, this was my least favorite item. We got it thin-crust, and while it looked good, it was served completely cold, and the flavor can only be described as cardboard-like. I would definitely try another pizza here, but not this one. My friends also split an order of meatballs, which they loved. While they had wine for dessert, I had a piece of limoncello cake for dessert. It was fantastically lemony and moist, which I loved. Their parking lot is valet only, but fortunately you only have to pay the $6 fee Fri-Sun, so we just had to tip the very friendly valet.

Paired that with one of their happy hour margaritas and then ordered three tacos to round things out. Every single item hit. Fresh flavors, great portions, and one of those meals where you're already thinking about coming back before you finish.

Can get relatively busy after the 5pm workday, but I do like how they offer happy hour. I ended up getting the Sangria Blanca and the Bougie Palmer this time around. The sangria was light and refreshing, not overly sweet like how other white wine sangrias can be. I like how they added berries in it to add a decorative touch. The palmer was well-balanced and more citrus-y than it was fruity. Also pretty refreshing for a hot day. I've noticed in general that most of the drinks here are mixed well; they don't err on being too sweet or too strong, just well-balanced with the flavors not trying hard to dominate one another in the drinks.

The third time we were concerned, a little piece of glass had fallen in our food. The server and the manager were nice but the manager seemed to think that the solution was for the servers to slow down. That doesn't make sense to me but ok. They did remake a plate to go for us, so that was nice. The food was a little meh to me. The short ribs could have used some salt or seasoning before making the ravioli's (same with the chicken parm) just a suggestion. Pasta tasted undercooked and as if it was box pasta. I've lived in nyc and have had some really good Italian food there so I'm a little critical. I think Olivia is a little more hype and a nice ambiance for being in south Tampa than good food.

The area surrounding the restaurant is beautiful and makes for a great place to walk around and explore. Once inside, the atmosphere is just as impressive, and thankfully the food, drinks, and service live up to the hype. My dad and I started with the Gator Tail appetizer. Neither of us had ever tried alligator before, so we were really curious to see what it was like. Turns out, we loved it! It tastes surprisingly similar to chicken and was a fun way to try something new. For our mains, my dad ordered their famous Meatloaf, and after trying a bite, we completely understand why it's one of their signature dishes. It was excellent. I went with Barry's Tomahawk Pork Chop, and it was outstanding. The pork was cooked perfectly; juicy, tender, and not dry whatsoever. The real star, though, was the guava demi-glace, which added such a unique and delicious flavour to the dish. The beer selection was great too. I especially enjoyed the Wedding Beer Berry Lager, which was refreshing and packed with flavour. We also saved room for dessert. We tried the Candied Maple Bacon Ice Cream and the Bourbon Butter Cake. The ice cream wasn't really my favourite; I thought the cornflakes were a bit of a strange addition, but my dad enjoyed it. The Bourbon Butter Cake, on the other hand, was delicious and a great way to finish off the meal. Between the beautiful setting, excellent food, great drinks, and friendly service, it's easy to see why Ulele is such a popular Tampa destination.

My bestie treated me to the ultimate dessert experience for my birthday- this place is so cute for a fun celebration or girls night out! We chose the Chocolate Tasting Flight. You start off by choosing your base: milk, dark, or white chocolate and 3 toppings while you sip a complimentary glass of champagne . I chose a milk base with Oreos, cake crumbles, and sprinkles. Once they take your order, you move to the next step where you are served a platter with mini chocolate spoons and cheesecake bites. For the third step, you are brought a treat box with strawberries, marshmallows, chocolate sauce, and sprinkles. For a special birthday surprise, I was given a box with macarons, marshmallows, sugar-coated strawberries, munchkins and white chocolate dipping sauce. read more
