    I placed an order for a custom cake. I showed the baker an image of what I wanted and she agreed…read moreand said she could do it (a TWO-story cake with lettering on it.) Of course, I did not expect it to be exactly like the image but instead what I received was what seemed to be a pre-made cake you could purchase from Walmart (not a two story cake, but a flat cake 1-story cake) When I showed proof of texting an image of what I wanted and explaining to her in person the baker denied everything and handled the situation very rudely. She tried to convince me that what she made is what I ordered. I was not offered a refund but instead after i explained her mistake over and over for about 20 minutes, i was offered another cake. To my surprise it was the same exact cake but without lettering. If you're looking for a custom cake I would not recommend this location. *NOTE FOR BUSINESS* I have since filed a report to BBB for forcing a low-income community to pay a minimum of $10 purchase on debit cards. What you are doing is wrong and will be addressed Also, a note was made for the minor working at this location.

Also their baked goods are pretty good too, some things are better than others, but that is to be expected I guess. I don't know what half of it is, but they seem to sell a lot of it. The staff is always friendly and puts up with me and my stupid questions. They open at 5 am I believe, I've been told conflicting things about when the start selling tamales. One lady said 5, another said 8, and another said 11. Not sure exactly but they are worth it.

    I've been a regular customer at this bakery for a long time -- my son loves their cookies, and I've…read morespent hundreds of dollars here over time. But my recent experience ordering a custom cake for my husband's 40th birthday was so disappointing that I feel obligated to warn others. I ordered a two-tier custom cake for nearly $400, plus two dozen mini cupcakes for $110, bringing my total close to $500. For comparison: * Most privately owned bakeries charge around $200-$350 for a two-tier custom cake depending on complexity. * Mini cupcakes typically cost $20-$50 per 24, even from gourmet bakeries. So I paid premium pricing, and I expected premium quality. Unfortunately, that's not what I received. Design Issues The cake did not resemble the inspiration photos we discussed. I asked for a deep, elegant green with blended transitions -- something fitting for an adult's 40th birthday theme. Instead, the cake looked more like a Minecraft or Ninja Turtle cake with bright neon green, flat colors, and no blending. When I brought up the design issue, the owner blamed me, saying the buttercream "needs to sit out for 4-5 hours to darken." The cake did sit out for almost 5 hours, and the color never changed. It wasn't even close to the shade I requested. The explanation didn't make sense, and it felt like I was being blamed for something that was simply a design mistake. Quality Issues: Undercooked Cake When we cut the top tier at the party, we discovered: * an unusually thick 2-inch layer of frosting in the middle, * and a raw, floury, undercooked interior. The texture and aftertaste confirmed it wasn't baked through. We ended up throwing away the entire top tier and whatever was left over at the end of the night. This is more than disappointing -- it's a food safety concern. Customer Service & Tone This was honestly the most frustrating part. When I reached out to discuss what went wrong, the owner's tone was polite on the surface, but the conversation felt passive-aggressive, full of constant rebuttals, and completely lacking in accountability. Every single concern I raised was met with: * an excuse, * a deflection, * or a technical explanation that didn't match my actual experience. There was zero acknowledgment that anything might have been done incorrectly. She repeatedly mentioned things like: * "I didn't charge you for the little decorative balls -- those were free," * "I didn't charge you for the cake topper, it was $3.99," which felt unnecessarily frugal and honestly strange considering I spent almost $500 there. Mentioning $3.99 repeatedly after charging me hundreds of dollars made the whole interaction feel awkward and unprofessional. She also offered me a few free cookies -- but only if I used them this year because she "couldn't move the gift card into the next year due to accounting." I didn't want cookies. I wanted a partial refund, which was the only fair resolution. She immediately shut that down and said she "couldn't do that because of policy," even though she is the owner who sets the policies. There was no room for discussion, no willingness to listen, and no genuine concern for the customer experience. Overall For nearly $500, I received: * a cake that didn't match the design, * colors that were incorrect, * an undercooked top tier, * and a customer service experience that was rigid, dismissive, and full of excuses. I don't post negative reviews lightly, but this was extremely poor value for the price, and the lack of accountability afterward made the situation far worse. I hope this bakery takes this feedback seriously and improves both quality control and how they handle issues when they arise.

The buttercream was not sweet at all, which I really enjoyed. The cake itself was moist and cooked perfectly. My fiancé also enjoyed it. We also tried the m&m cookie and that had a lot of m&m's inside and was sweeter than the cupcake but also very good. It's a cute store and very clean.

Didn't respond to texts or emails. Just vanished. It is extremely unprofessional and speaks volumes to her acumen as a business person. She inconvenienced my entire team and me, and demonstrated where she falls in this small and competitive field.  She should strongly consider how her actions and lack of follow-through affect others, and how her disregard for common courtesy and standard professionalism cast an extremely negative light on the business she is purporting to cultivate. I can only speak to my experience with her--extremely disappointing and profoundly unprofessional. Disregarded commitment, left us empty-handed at the last second, and didn't even have the courtesy to communicate any of it. Perhaps she will figure it out someday.

I followed up three separate times after the event to share my concerns and received no response at all--which really shows how little they value customer service. * I didn't receive the full list of cake flavor options until four days before pickup, and when I asked to switch flavors, I was told it was already too late because the cakes had been baked without confirming my choice. * I had a confirmed pickup time of 10:30 a.m., but when I arrived, I was told the designer went home sick and the cakes weren't finished. I ended up waiting until 11:45 a.m. for them to be decorated, which explains the rushed design. * The cake pops weren't ready, so I had to cancel them and run to another store last-minute to find replacements. * I specifically requested pastel colors, but the cakes were decorated in bright colors that didn't match anything we discussed. * The design and quality were extremely disappointing--the decorations looked rushed, the frosting was hard, and the smash cake wasn't even edible for its intended use. Overall, this was an unprofessional and frustrating experience from start to finish. Between the poor communication, lack of accountability, low-quality product, and complete disregard for customer concerns, I strongly recommend going elsewhere. They clearly do not prioritize quality or customer service.

The morning of our party, we picked up the cakes which looked beautiful and were a huge hit! The cake itself was very light and delicious. I loved the raspberry jam we added, it was so flavorful. The buttercream frosting is almost a whipped buttercream, very light and airy! We are happy with our decision to get cakes here.

Those items are a bit pricier than the rest but they are quite unique. The cruffins are flakey, sugary without being overwhelming, creamy but subtle, and very satisfying. I have a strong sweet tooth and I am greedy. So I generally like to try more than one item in one sitting. These portions are not small and I would recommend sharing if you want to try a variety. I have monthly appointments in the general area and I try to plan it so that I will have enough time before or after my appointment to make a quick stop at Fiene's. My visits are usually during the week and I would be in and out within 10 minutes.
