I stumbled in here looking for basic survival coffee and left with enough pastries to feed a small village. Everything looks incredibly delicious, the place is completely spotless, and the decor is stunning. The service was fantastic, too. I will definitely be back for more! read more

I give this place a 4/5 I ordered a cannoli cake which I expected to be filled with cannoli, however it was only cannoli on top. It was pretty pricey for the size and giving its quality I would say it could have been better. It was good but not something to rave about or make me want to continue ordering more. read more

Pros: -The shop is adorably decorated. -The Tres Leche was the best thing we had there. That being said, the flavor was good but texture was a bit gritty. -Customer service was good Cons: -The guava cheesecake was completely gelatinous (not good tbh) -The chocolate cake was meh, it had little icing and it was just not great. Definitely not as moist as I like my cake to be either. I really really wanted to like this place after getting three desserts but to be honest they were just not all that good :/ Maybe we will come back and try something else? read more

For my wife's birthday I was looking to order a cake and wanted to try the new cake shop apart from the usuals. So i searched near me and I saw that there is a cake shop which offers amazing cakes. So, I went and i was amazed by the decorations that the shop had. They offer different types and flavors of cakes. From the flavor I decided to order the butterscotch cake flavor from the cake shop. I picked up the cake before the eve of my wife's birthday. The service was good. The cake was delicious and it was the perfect butterscotch flavor. Loved the cake as well as the cake shop. read more

Ordered from DoorDash. The worst cake and cookie I've ever had. Terrible! Dry, no flavor, incredibly stale!! It must've been VERY old for it to have tasted that stale. Inedible! I threw it away! Avoid at all cost!!! read more

What a cute little cake shop! As soon as you walk in, you see the Very glam and gorgeous chandelier. When you arrive to the counter, there is plenty of goodies to chose from if you're looking for a sweet treat to go or eat there with a coffee. I was there to order a standard small birthday cake and had the option of 2 layer or 3 layer. Definitely a nice option to have as most places only do 2 layers. They have a variety of cake flavors as well as fillings. As I was walking around, I noticed all the other decorative cakes in the refrigerator which looked so good and beautifully created. The details were impressive. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area and nice to have a bakery like this instead of the other chain bakeries in the neighborhood. read more

Horrible experience when it came to ordering my son's birthday cake. Marcus was the employee to take my order and "try" to answer my questions as this was my very first time doing this. Marcus not only was brief and not specific with his answers but showed me the wrong sizing to the cakes I had asked about, giving me false hope on what the cake would look like. As you can see in the pictures the top layer is 6inches but what was shown in store was a 7in top tier cake and an 8in bottom tier cake. The cake was not proportionate and was started to tilt over. I was extremely upset about this and explained the whole situation to the owner Jean Paul who said that that was the information on the paper and that's what they did. He did not apologize for the horrible cake job or for the incorrect information that Marcus had given me. He basically said that the cake was made with the instructions given. Not only that but I was given a price when I placed the order of 98.00 dollars but when it came time to pay, that price had gone from $98 to $160... Like what? Their only justification for this was because it was a decorated cake... what decorations? There were no decorations on it. This should have been a red flag from the beginning. Being a first time and last time client, Jean Paul did not provide a way of fixing this such as a partial refund for the inconvenience and bad presentation. I'm very upset about their service. I really hope this does not happen to anyone else. Beware of this place!!!! read more

This cake shop has so much to offer. I stopped in just to order my girlfriends birthday cake and ended staying for a nice cup of coffee and a spinach strudel. Everything was absolutely amazing and they did a wonderful job on my girlfriends cake. I'm not a huge chocolate person so this cake is the best chocolate cake I've ever had. Everyone loved it. read more

We ordered cupcakes for my son's birthday. Andrea was so sweet and helpful, full of suggestions! We came here after finding out Publix received their cupcakes frozen - gross. I'll be coming here from now on - worth it and also I love supporting small businesses! We brought in Toy Story themed liners and and toppers for the cupcakes, and Andrea was happy to work that into our order. My son also has a dye sensitivity. She was ready with an idea of white icing and adding light sprinkles for the color. The cupcakes were PHENOMENAL! Vanilla and chocolate and each had delicious filling! So moist and full of flavor! read more

Such a cute little cake shop! My mother in law ordered my baby shower cookies from here a couple months back and I was intrigued what else they had. What I ordered Guava Cheesecake Tres Leche Creme brûlée The Tres Leche is amazing, so fresh and not complete creme. It was so tasty, I ate half the tray before offering any to my husband of which we got desserts to split, oops! I would come back for this alone. Go try it The Guava cheesecake was simple. The guava pasta topped it, it did have great cheesecake texture however to me it was just simple. I really wanted to hope the Creme Brûlée was going to be bomb, it just wasn't. It had the consistency of soup, and not enough flavor. The shop however had several cake slices, a variety of larger cakes and different menu options like cookies. I would definitely come back but took of a star for not really being consistent through out. The Chance are good that you may find something you truly enjoy, I know I did. read more

This stuff looks so beautiful until you actually "try" to eat it. I can tell it's been in the case for awhile or that it's frozen but this just wasn't edible. I feel like I wasted my my money. I really can't say much other than the fact that it was terrible. read more

I will give a round of applause to The Cake Shop. While one of my friends like to rave about their cakes, I was never a big fan... however, that was then; this is now. I will admit that they have improved tremendously from my first visit cake experience. The cake I purchased most recently was for one of my daughters to split with me and I must say that we both thoroughly enjoyed each bite. The soft icing was perfect (not overly sweet, but just right) and the cake itself was moist and fresh. They also have macaroons, cupcakes, and specialty cakes that looked delicious. The interior design is so cute and resembles a swanky dessert shop. My 5 year old told me it reminded her of "Hollywood". We eat a ton of sweet treats so we certainly will be back for more. Two thumbs up! read more

The 4 stars are based on what we tried thus far. This is definitely a hidden gem. My wife and I was looking for some dessert this evening. As we're driving north heading home on Bruce B Down. My wife saw it but didn't say anything and I read her face and asked do you want to stop. I saw you looking at the the cake shop. A quick u turn and they were closed but open up for us. How awesome is that!!! The decor is so elegant with the statement chandelier hanging right above you. It is definitely a game changer for the neighborhood. We were secluded to only a few cakes left, I mean they were closed. But what we chosen taste freaking amazing. Moist and talk about yummy cake. My wife had the Italian rum cake and mine was the chocolate coconut. Definitely worth the stop and the owners are definitely welcoming. So if your ever in the neighborhood it is a must you stop and have some cake with a cup of coffee or tea. For the tea cups are so dope. They also rent out the venue for events which I thought was also great. So we are definitely going back and I know my 4 stars will turn into 5 stars. Kudos to "The Cake Shop" for baking with love and proving that getting the customers in is more important then rushing them out. read more

Hooray for a brand new dessert and coffee shop in the neighborhood. We were driving on Bruce B Downs and a glistening sign that said The Cake Shop graced my presence. Without a stop we had to stop by. Upon stopping in, the first thing you see are beautiful hints of pinks, silver, and a grand chandelier! There are mini desserts, and a couple cases of beautiful sweet cakes, cookies, and other sweet & savory goodies. One of the very nice owners greeted us so happily into her new spot that just opened yesterday. We surveyed over all off her cakes and asked about almost everyone of them. We picked the amazing chocolate raspberry cake. This was not overly rich, overly chocolatey, or overly raspberry. Everything came together so perfectly. They also have coffee and breakfast type items and will have many more items. There is not a menu just yet, but there sure will be. We loved this exquisite new little Cake Shop and can't wait to try more! So happy to welcome them to the neighborhood! read more

Ok, so for me when it comes to cakes and cupcakes etc, I do not consider myself a connoisseur, but, I do know a good one when I taste one, and these were A-Ok. The cupcakes here were as good as most other places.... You can find all your popular flavors, including red velvet, oreo, birthday cake and so on. They also sell other sweet baked goods (cheese cake, cookies, tarts etc). The one thing that does stand out is the décor...it is very beautifully put together for such a small space. All things girly and tea-party-like! It really makes for a cute cake shop to just get a cupcake, a coffee or tea and stay to enjoy it. Good location, easy access from the main road and a good addition to the area. So for that reason I would definitely visit again and dine in for dessert and coffee after a late brunch with the girls! *accessible entrance read more

Stop getting your tres leches from Publix and start getting them here. It's super authentic and is topped with dulce de leche. Very creamy and filling. It has everything you could ever want in a tres leches. With that being said, I'm definitely coming back here. They have all sorts of stuff. You just have to find which dessert/pastry is for you. I also got the beef empanada and the chocolate mousse. Personally, the tres leches set the bar so high that they come nowhere in comparison. The chocolate mousse has nuts ontop and tastes like oreo/chocolate frosting. The beef empanada is strictly ground beef and the dough. The lady at the front was super nice and patient. The shop itself is really appealing. I'll be coming back to try new things! read more

The best Bakery in town! The shop was very attentive and communicated well. The cake was very delicious and everything was perfect and exactly what we asked for! Recommend 100% read more

I gave "The Cake Shop" two chances in less than a week to make a good impression. The 3-star is generous given the shops' interior presentation and the eye-catching artistry of the pastries being above-par! HOWEVER....(note the caps), the texture of the cake was grainy w/o much flavor - the almost diabetic comatose inducing amount of sugar failed in its attempt to satisfy the palate. If that's not enough, the cake was deficient in moistness....somewhat unyielding in my attempts to fork up a sample. I couldn't do anything w/ both of these birthday cakes - and no, I wouldn't give them away b/c of the subpar...not even at or above par quality, so they were trashed -a loss of $60. This was my experience...others may concur or oppose, but there will no chances w/ us for repeat business. read more

Cake Art; out of this world. We had an idea of what we wanted and asked if they could build it... not only did they do what we wanted but they created a better design than what we could have imagined! The flavors were on point, you could even eat the frosting (people make these hard tasteless fondants and creams these days, to design on, that are just imposible to eat!!!). The cake was made of a sweet chocolate and chocolate cream like my 4 year old asked for. Customer service at the shop was great, come hungry to pick up your order, they can do some killer small meals and of course other deserts ready to go! If you Don't want to go with a store cake, or a fancy order, they have some ready to go cakes. The prices were just like the supermarket ones!!! But it is a cake shop, this is what they do! Español also spoken here! Oh, almost forgot they didn't need three/four weeks in advance, we were maybe just over a week to the date! Good luck! Gracias por el buen servicio! read more

I've been to this place 3 times. So this review is taking all experiences into account. What caught my eye was the giant inflatable cake they have (had) on the roof. When entering, you are awed by the beautiful chandelier. The shop is beautifully decorated and maintained; which is inviting and makes you want to sit and enjoy some of the sweets. On one occasion we purchased my daughters custom bday cake for her toy story theme party. The ordering process was horrendous (told to call back, when we did call back, we were then told we'd get a call back..never did, had to call back etc-- and when we finally told them the type of cake we wanted we were left wondering if the cake was actually going to be made and ready for the party). With that said, the cake turned out amazing and tasted wonderful. Just a bit too sweet for me but everyone else at the party loved it. On other occasions we've come in for some of the pastries. The pastries are well done; and if you want a good cupcake or slice of baklava, in a glamorous setting, then come here. Just don't expect it to be the best cupcake or baklava you've ever had...it's good, not great. The prices are slightly above average but nothing extreme compared to other places in the Tampa Bay Area. We've always felt welcomed by the owners and the staff and have never had any issues with them being rude (as others who have reviewed this place indicated they've experienced). All in all, nice little spot if you're searching for a place that offers a variety of pastries and espresso. Give it a shot if you're around the New Tampa/ Wesley Chapel area. read more

Too expensive for old and stale cakes. I am debating on calling the health department because the cupcake I ordered was inedible and who knows how long it was in the case for. I picked up the whole cupcake with my fork, that's how stale it was. I was scared to even put a full bite in my mouth and chew. Also, I was not told that the icing on the lemon cupcake had hidden coconut shavings in it. As a result, I was not risking trying the almond cake I purchased. Everything I purchased went in the trash. Oh and I cannot forget how expensive this place is. I do not recommend. 1 star for the beautiful shop decor and decorations on the cakes, but don't be fooled like me by basing appearances in taste. read more

I ordered a cake for my husbands birthday . I asked for lemon cake with rasberry filling and buttercream frosting. This cake was not lemon at all and it was awful, dry, no flavor at all and as for the rasberry filling there was barely any in there. A cake that costs over 50 bucks should taste a lot better than this. Don't worry sate your money. I know I won't go there again. I can get a Bette cake at Publix read more

Had I known that the Cake Shop was under new ownership, I may not have gone back. I ordered my oldest daughter's graduation cake there four years ago and it was amazing! Unfortunately, they chose not to tell me that they are under new ownership when I asked about that particular cake. I ended up ordering a vanilla cake with strawberry filling; only I didn't expect the filling to taste like Smuckers from a jar. The decorations were sub-par as well and the frosting was beyond too sweet. I will definitely not order from them again. read more

Visited for the first time since it's in my neighborhood. What a beautiful decor the cake shop have , it's well put together and inviting. They have a lot of different options that could suit your taste buds. I purchase a vanilla cupcake for my mom. She stated is as okay but had better. I purchased the opera cake, it had a similar taste to tiramisu without being bitter. It was just okay for me also. Now I can't say anything bad , I just feel I ordered the wrong thing for what I was looking for. I will try this place again to purchase something different and hopefully my taste buds will scream oh yes! read more

I had ordered my One year old baby boy bday cake 3 weeks prior to his birthday, tho he got an allergy testing due to some complications after I ordered the cake and the results came back 3 days before his birthday it turns out he is allergic to cow milk.. so i called and asked if they could change the ingredients, they said NO, tho they could refund me 70% of what I paid and they would keep 30% since I had ordered it with so much time ahead...(why would you keep any % if the cake wasn't suppose to be done with 3 days prior to the birthday)... i said you know what never mind I will pick up the cake cause i am not gifting you no 30% of my money.. I picked up the cake on the scheduled date... the decoration looked nothing like the picture... I mentioned it to the lady and she ignored me... i just took my cake and stepped out...

The interior was like walking inside a princess castle, so girly and beautifully made. Love this place. read more

The baked goods all look lovely but lack real flavour. I had the coconut cake that was basically white cake with white frosting that had been sprinkled with (untoasted) coconut. It vaguely tasted of coconut. The frosting lacked creaminess & taste. My companion said the carrot cake was "ok". Not really a rousing recommendation. The pecan tart was "meh". And totally devoid of pecans -- instead there were walnuts. Not really worth the price. read more
