    My wife and I reached our 50th anniversary and scheduled a family dinner at a nice restaurant. We wanted a special cake to top off the evening and chose The Cake Girl as our baker. We couldn't be happier with the end result. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it was delicious as well. Everyone raved about the moist texture and fantastic flavor.

    We ordered a Batman cake for our grandson who was turning 3 . The cake was so moist and the artwork was incredible and a very highly skilled talented baker I must say . I've ordered custom cakes for years and the Cake Girl website blew me away because of the level of artistry involved in her designs and construction and beautiful details and color sense . I would highly recommend anyone wanting not just an ordinary store bought cake but something original and a huge WOW factor !

    9" round Dude Perfect cake!

    We had a flawless experience! The 9" cake was a perfect size and it tasted awesome too. Would recommend and use again!

    The Kanker Sisters birthday cake!!

    First of all, let me tell you why I love this business, aside from the many delicious cake reasons. I live in NC. My daughter lives in Austin, TX. For her 30th birthday recently, I needed a very special cake and went to Yelp to find the right person to do it. First, a little backstory... when my daughter was turning 5, I asked her what kind of cake she wanted. She said "a Kanker Sisters cake" (you'll have to look that up yourself) but I said ABSOLUTELY NOT. I made her choose a princess cake. But now that she's 30, I wanted to surprise her with her request from 25 years ago. I chose this business because of the wonderful reviews, and even though Leander was a little far away, my son-in-law said he'd go pick it up. Maryam was so on board with my idea and said she could absolutely do it! I sent her pictures and selected a vanilla cake and strawberry filling. She created THE most delicious, creative and perfect Kanker Sisters cake!! It was a huge hit - my daughter was SO surprised! I just came to visit and they saved the leftover cake in the fridge so I could taste it, and it is DELICIOUS! I loved how organized she was with sending me a detailed confirmation, then scheduled a pick up time for the cake to be picked up!

    Custom birthday cake!

    We ordered a custom cake from The Cake Girl for my mother-in-law's 85th birthday, and it exceeded every expectation. The design was absolutely beautiful, and it tasted even better than it looked. Everyone at the party raved about it! Highly recommend this wonderful small business. Mary was wonderful to work with!

    Absolutely loved the cake. Mary was spot on with her communications and delivery. She had done a wonderful job with the design and it was even better than I expected. Definitely recommend The Cake Girl!

    I ordered my wife tech themed birthday cake in a short notice and she was able to get it done. The customer service is top tier and she answers back really fast. The cake was beautiful put together from the color, the computer and devices, to the number 35 with the diamonds. My wife and all her friends enjoyed the cake and it was very delicious. If you are in need of a cake please reach out to the cake girl Austin.

    Amazing! I called at the very very last minute to get a custom cake done for a wedding party I was throwing! She helped me with ideas or possibilities of what could be accomplished in the less than a week time span. The cake came out so beautifully and was definitely a show stopper! There were so many compliments on her work! The flavors: vanilla with chocolate buttercream!

    Mary made my daughter the most beautiful cake for her 1st birthday party! It was semi-short notice and she squeezed me in and worked with me to make sure I got every detail I wanted included on the cake. She provided amazing service through messages and made provided a drawn out draft of what we brainstormed together! Normally whenever you have a beautiful cake the quality and flavor sometimes lack but it was beyond delicious and not even slightly dry! I got a lot of fondant on the cake too but even her fondant tasted sooo good! 1000/10 will be using her for future event! You will not be disappointed!! For reference, she is a home baker and based in leander and works by herself so be respectful of her time and fair prices

    Pokémon themed cake

    Mary absolutely knocked it out of the park! I called her in under a week out for a surprise birthday cake for my brother. She collaborated with me to design a Pokémon themed cake with his favorite character and it is even better than I imagined. Thank you so much Mary!!

    Cupcakes

    Delicious cupcakes that were very cute! Pastry chef recommended some fun ideas. Loved supporting a local up-and-comet.

    I was super particular on wanting this very simple and clean looking and she delivered
    Jocelyn P.

    I called Mary in a pinch a week before my friends bday and she was easy to communicate with. Quick to text back and confirm things super clearly and explicitly via text since I was very particular with what I wanted. The cake was so good and fresh tasting. Highly recommend this small business!!

    As delicious as it was gorgeous!
    Paige H.

    Absolutely fabulous! Mary helped me in a pinch to order a special cake for my mother's 80th birthday on short notice. The cake was a showstopper when presented, and my mother was blown away by how gorgeous it was. Better yet - it was as delicious as it was beautiful. Mary was a fantastic collaborator and communicator, working with me to figure out what we could do. The result was far beyond my expectations in every possible way. Thank you, Mary!

I chose Mindy's site unseen and no tastings to create a two tiers cake for my son's rehearsal dinner. Oh my the most delicious, beautiful cake I have had the pleasure to eat. A work of delicious art. The buttercream was slickly, smooth, creamy and just the right amount of sweetness. The cake was moist with a beautiful crumb - outstanding. I choose the Mexican vanilla cake with buttercream and filled with a fresh strawberry compote (which I got extra of to drizzle on the pieces, so glad I did) for the bottom cake and a chocolate cake with Nutella and hazelnut buttercream. I wish I lived in Austin so I could order more cakes from Mindy's. Thank you Mindy for the beautiful cake and your outstanding talent and professionalism. Mindy's rivals the best European bakeries!

    Husband ordered me a specially designed cake 8 days prior to my birthday, and they quoted him $100…read more It was a 6" cake. The cake looked alright, however, they did not fully follow the instructions provided when we ordered. Design details were missed, and it truly looks like they rushed on the cake. For $100, we expected more out of it. The cake itself did not taste great - it was very dense, and the filling they used was not what we ordered. He asked for a vanilla cake with a whipped cream and fresh strawberry filling. They had used a white buttercream instead, and also put an inedible fondant covering the entire cake. This turned what was supposed to be a light and airy strawberry shortcake into more of an overly sweet and dense cake, I do want to note that they did not ask any follow up questions about what to use for the cakes icing or anything of the sort (which I find strange especially at this price point for a small cake) when my husband sent in the request. They also told him they put candles in the box, but there were none. We tried to reach out to the business to resolve this offline, and they did not respond. We love supporting local businesses, but unfortunately this one did not hit the mark.

    Not my cup of sugar... I was expecting more of a variety of desserts but all that was accounted…read morefor was cookies, one type of brownie, cupcakes & 4th of July themed macaroons. This place is more known for cakes so not a huge deal. I got a cookies n cream cupcake and homestyle cookie (chocolate chip cookie w/dulce de leche filling). Cupcake was a little dry, but I will say they are very generous with frosting portion on the cupcakes (almost same amount if not more than the bread). Frosting had a good flavor but because cupcakes sit in a cooled display case it was very very thick (solid). Had to wait a bit for it to thaw out. Homestyle cookie wasn't crazy for either. I asked the employee helping me if had a a lot of filling/if the dulce de leche made the cookie "too sweet" but she assured me it didn't. It wasn't for me (unfortunately threw both away after a bite). It was a lot of filling and almost just overpowering, to each their own. Customer service was fine. I probably wouldn't try it again.
