They are very considerate and understanding when husbands make mistakes on picking the wrong type of cake for the wifey! Whoopsies, but in all seriousness, this is a wonderful bake shop and the owner and staff are great and helpful when emergencies arise!! Thier cakes taste wonderful. Very impressed by their design and with great artistic flair! read more

I looked high and low for a highly rated bakery that made a german chocolate cake - husband's special request for his 40th birthday. I found A Bakeshop and it was absolutely divine. A 10" cake was massive and dense and fed well over 30 people. People couldn't stop talking about it (and I even got a few texts after the party that folks were dreaming of it afterward! It was THAT good.) Worth the price for a memorable special occasion. The only reason I wouldn't give it 5 stars is that I emailed the shop in advance to arrange to come and do a taste before I ordered. They said to let them know which day I would be dropping by so they could have a special one prepared for me, I told them the day, they responded and didn't mention there would be an issue. I drove all the way out there on the day I told them and when I got there they said they didn't have German Chocolate on the menu this week. So, whatever...not great communication, but the cake was worth the leap of faith. I can tell you, it was excellent! read more

my new go to spot! A friend referred this shop to me for my sons 2nd birthday cake. I have tried all the other bakeries in Scottsdale and was always disappointed BUT not this time! My sons Spider-Man cake was super simple but cute! It was the funfetti cake with vanilla icing, then 2 dozen rice crispy -- ALL DELICIOUS! when I was picking up the cake they had 3 mini German chocolate cake cupcakes left so I brought them home to my husband and in-laws(it's their family favorite) They raves how close it gaskets to their grandmothers cake & almost brought them in tears bring back memories. read more

Just awful. Cake that I ordered few weeks in advance and sent a picture as an example to them did not even remotely looked like the picture. When I said that it wasn't what I wanted, the person didn't even care. Just said have a good day. Well...never again! The owner responded how she wanted to have a conversation with me. Although she called me and said "EXPLAIN your review to me!" I will make sure I contact yelp and let them know you are calling and saying that to your customers! read more

Yum! Ordered a cake for my friends baby shower - triple vanilla flavor. They were able to do pink ombré and a cute sugar decor for the baby name. Friendly service. And the cakes was a hit! Everyone said it was delicious. Would definitely suggest to friends and use them in the future. It was on the average/high price but quality was top notch. read more

This shop screams cute..... cute cute cute. It's like a bakery on a movie set, I kid you not. I walked by the shop after lunch and, despite being totally full, I just couldn't not go in... the vintage -y decor and neatly displayed pastries called out to me.... I was doomed. The people who work here are very nice, helpful, and friendly. Their recipes are mostly Italian based, which makes them a little different than other local bakeries. After much deliberation (and I mean MUCH.... like extensive), I tried the brownie and the cheesecake. The brownie looked kind of dry on the outside, but don't let that fool you, it was somewhere between a cake texture and a fudgy brownie texture, certainly not dry. The brownie was chocolatey but not overly rich with chocolate chips throughout. Was it my favorite brownie in town? No (I am partial to a fudgy more chocolatey and rich brownie). But it was very good and if I were in the neighborhood I would get it again. The cheesecake, on the other hand, was fairly awesome. This was no New York cheesecake. It was surprisingly light and airy, not the heavy oh-my-god-I'm-so-full-need-bigger-pants kind of cheesecake you get most places (not that I don't like that too, this was just something you may want to eat with more frequency). It was sweet without being overly sweet and they didn't complicate it with toppings or flavors, it was just a good plain cheesecake. Oh, and it isn't served in slices, it's served like a cupcake.... so cute. Anyway, each dessert cost 3$, so the prices are competitive with other local bakeries. Definitely check this cute little bakery out next time you're in the area. PS they have cupcakes and the flavors change depending on the baker's mood each day.... how cute is that? PPS Can I say cute one more time? Whoa. read more

Delectable and delightful! Spot-on prices. This new shop is on the fast-track to greatness. Everything is made fresh and you can really taste the difference. The cassata cake is light and fluffy with just the right hint of cinnamon and chocolate chips topping. Yum! The sugar cookie was a great homage to the classic jar cookie. And the peanut butter cookie was so very rich. My absolute favorite was the fruit tart!... Omg. The buttery, sugary treat just melts in your mouth and draws out the fruit icing topping. Absolutely delicious! The gals here aim to please. I was encouraged to taste a free sample of anything and everything. They really want to know what people like and how their treats appeal to their customers. Bravo! Also, props to the Bakeshop for serving Grateful Spoon gelato. Always is thumbs up! The pricing here is perfect. You will be in the $1-$3 range for a single treat and that's the way it should be. No need to pay five bucks for a treat weighing just ounces. Candace and Andrea were so welcoming and warm. I had a blast enjoying all the Bakeshop has to offer. read more

Wow! Love this shop! We have used Andrea's bakery for years, before she even had a storefront. She has catered many events for us and always does an exquisite job! She has so much talent and such an assortment of things she can make. Her cupcakes are my favorite in town. To be honest there isn't one thing I haven't liked. Service at her shop is so friendly and inviting. The staff is always smiling. You can tell that Andrea takes so much pride in her business. The decor in the shop is so adorable. Love it. Feels very inviting. You just want to sit on the couch and have some coffee and sample everything!! read more

Favorite bakery in town! I have been here many times with friends and family and have never had anything that wasn't fantastic. I had my best friend's bridal shower desserts made here and everyone kept saying how amazing everything tasted. The team here was wonderful at communicating with me as to what my vision was and was able to give me recommendations based on what they thought would be the best option. They also allowed me to pick up all the desserts prior to the bakery opening which was very considerate. The wonderful part about the creations here is that they look beautiful, but they also taste incredible too. read more

Highly recommend this bakery to make custom cake. Ordered from them to make my besties baby shower cake. It was absolutely delicious and was so colorful, just as she wished.

A Bakeshop - Picture doesn't do the cake justice. So moist and tasty. - Bakeries Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Literally so rude. The guy is very nice and helpful. But the woman is so rude. Rolled her eyes at me when I paid in cash. Didnt talk to me. And when I asked for a cup of water to go, I was pointed to a tiny little solo cup and that was that. Been in here several times and had the same experience. For how much sugar they have in their shop you think this woman could be a little sweeter to her customers. Would not recommend to anyone. There are better sweets to be had elsewhere. read more

I called to order two cakes for my kids' birthday party on a Tuesday for Saturday morning pickup. I was worried about the short notice, but Andrea said it was not a problem. I asked for an "Annie" cake and a Minecraft cake, and I sent a few links showing what I had in mind over via email. Andrea was clear about the price and what she planned to make. She responded to each of my emails/questions quickly. The cakes were perfect! They were exactly what I'd hoped for and my kids loved them. Our party guests said they were delicious and several wanted to know where I bought them. I'll definitely be back to buy desserts/cakes in the future! read more

Note that they're offering a 10% discount for people who post yelp reviews. It is unfortunate that their promotion may be causing a larger amount of 5 star reviews that one would normally see. The sign near the register just says "yelp us" but I imagine it would be awkward for someone to leave a low star review and then show it to get 10% off their next order. I did not take part in the promotional offer. Pondered whether to give this place a 3 or 4. Parking can be nonexistent though they have one reserved space right in front of their shop. I tried a vanilla macaron and eclair. The white macaron was light, soft, and had a slight chew. It was MUCH smaller (maybe the size of an Oreo?) than French Grocery's but also much less tough/chewy (FG's was very cold though, so perhaps that was the issue). It wasn't as melt-in-your-mouth as Essence Bakery's tiny variety pack macarons I had before, perhaps because it came right out of the refrigerated case. The tiny little eclair's chocolate frosting/ganache swirl was very chilled, and so I didn't get the full flavor from it. The eclair had a nice light and flakey texture, and the custard filling was excellent. Both items were $2 for about two to three bites a piece. It's not incredibly expensive, but it also is solidly a "tiny indulgence" that feels more appropriate as a a cute gift or a treat plucked off a shiny tray at a party, as opposed to a nice after-dinner dessert. I suppose I am more accustomed to the large "this can last me two days" pastry from somewhere like Urban Cookies or AJ's. It doesn't exactly feel like a "good value" when the items are so tiny, but you do get to try several items. The cashier/worker was friendly, though she had to ask someone who I assume was the baker what the eclair filling was. Still, pleasant people and pleasant atmosphere! I feel the packaging and branding could use some work for the prices they're charging. Their plain white paper and brown cardboard packaging could look a lot more marketable with a nice large store logo sticker on it, for example. read more

Ok first off, the environment is cute cute cute!!! I can't get over how adorable the shop is!! And secondly the cupcakes I got were the triple vanilla and salted caramel. Holy smokes!!! They were so good! I'm super picky about cupcakes and these blew me away! I'm big on a dense cupcake and that what they were and the cutter creams were smooth and so amazing! The flavors were so good I can't even. I was sick today which was my birthday and these bad boys made a crap day so much brighter!!! read more

So far the best bakery I've had in PHX. I've tried upwards of 10 different places. Really, everything here(at A Bakeshop) is good as long as it fits your preferences. Some of my favorites: the macarons--especially the salted caramel, cream pie, sugar cookie, the cupcakes--especially the salted caramel. My friends are big fans of the various bars they have. I haven't tried any of the cakes or things they have to order, but if it's anything like the premades, I'm sure its delicious! Edit: On my last trip they had a few slices of cake available. It was some type of cannoli cake. It was very good. If they have cake by the slice when you go, it's definitely worth a shot. read more

Woah. Best chocolate chip cookie I've ever had. Very soft and gooey with flavorful chocolate. Best strawberry cupcake I have ever had and I am not a huge cupcake person. Light and airy, plenty of strawberry flavor, with a perfectly sweet icing and nice little surprise of strawberry at the bottom. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. The decor is tasteful and modern/cute. Love! Will be ordering in bulk for my sister's bridal shower. Only negative comments: Parking my SUV in the tiny parking lot was impossible. Businesses next door reserved all other places. I had to park by the Starbucks across the street which was just slightly less crowded. This is a big deal when it is "melt your skin" hot! I wish they had cake pops available to try. Also, I wish they were open on Mondays. What's with bake shops closed on Mondays?!? read more

This place was really very good. I stopped to pick up some items for an office party. Everyone loved the red velvet and chocolate cupcakes!!!! Cake was so moist and flavorful. I also bought one of each cookie and there were two particular cookie lovers who wanted the name and address of where I got them. I then lied and told them I baked them.. Of course I gave up the truth. It's conveniently located right off the highway and I will be back! read more

I used to like this bakery until last night. I stopped here to pick up some treats for my fiancé and I, two cannoli's and two carrot cupcakes. The cannoli's were decent but my carrot cupcake was a different story. The first bite was delicious but my second bite stabbed the roof of my mouth, literally. I stopped in mid bite, spit it out and noticed that I had bitten into a toothpick. I pulled the cupcake apart and there was the rest of the toothpick. I understand this was a mistake but it could've been a very dangerous mistake. After spending $15 on average treats and almost ingesting a toothpick I will never come back. read more

Maybe I didn't order the right items but there was nothing special about this place. My son ordered a cupcake and we were asked if we wanted a regular size or mini...which is no problem had they all not been mini size lol. We also got cookies and a whoopie pie Overpriced for what you get and considering the small menu of items they have to choose from, they really should be better than what they are.

Andrea was amazing to work with. I wasn't quite sure what I had in mind for my husband's 40th, but I wanted it to be spectacular. Andrea was very patient with emails going back and forth about design and she nailed it. We had the cake on the front entry table and nobody thought it was real, it looked so good! The design was spot on and heaven. When I let them eat the variety of cupcakes and the cake itself, people were shocked that such a good looking cake tasted as great as it did. Every last crumb was eaten. You must pop into this shop for occasions or to simply grab a sweet treat. read more

A bakeshop is a cute little dessert shop in the Phoenix area. I love that they have both regular sized cupcakes and little mini cupcakes available because I like to have options. My friend and I got a salted caramel chocolate, a strawberry, and raspberry chocolate cupcake. The raspberry chocolate and strawberry cupcakes were not good. I had high hopes for them but they were disappointing. The salted caramel chocolate cupcake, on the other hand, was so good. I usually prefer vanilla or yellow cakes so I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Overall, I would definitely recommend the salted caramel chocolate cupcake and skip the rest. In fact, get 2. read more

We went with A Bakeshop to make our wedding cake. The whole experience was wonderful from the start. The cake tasting was wonderful and delicious. We felt like their only goal was to make us happy.

On Friday afternoon I got word that a birthday was coming up... on the following Monday. Not only that, but the desired cake was going to be a chocolate-coffee cake for ~20 people. Cue a bunch of phone calls from someone outside of the Phoenix area trying to find a bakery that could handle it. Bakery 1- Like you want one of those breakfast pastry things? Bakery 2- Sorry, no way we can deliver on such short notice. And Bakery 3 was A Bakeshop, who was awesome to work with. Described the general parametres of the order, and as a person who really has no experience with chocolate-coffee cakes they were quite helpful in taking most of the burden in figuring it out. Everything was going great until I told them that I would pick it up at 6pm on Monday. Because they're closed Mondays. But they assured me that we could work something out, and come Monday they were there to hand off the cake (even though I was 10 min late). It turned out to be delicious, was way more than needed, and was absolutely beautiful. read more

A Bakeshop - 50th birthday - Bakeries Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Their pastries are delicious! Unfortunately I'm giving 2 stars because their customer service borderlines on rude. In the past I've brushed it off as irritation because I came in with small kids, and maybe the people that work there don't care for little kids! But today the girl working there was one of the rudest people I've ever seen in the customer service industry. I checked their website before arriving to see if I could order online. It said to call and they would bring the order out. But their menu online just says assorted cupcakes, cookies, and bars. Their front door said to call your order in, but if you had questions to come in. Since I had no idea what they had left one hour before closing, I tried to come in. That's when a young girl came out and said "yeah?" I said I wanted to get some treats for the 4 kids I had in the car, what did they have available? She said "macaroons, cupcakes, and bars." I asked what flavors, because I couldn't find a list online. She sighed, rolled her eyes and started listing macaroon flavors. When I asked her what cupcake flavors were left she gave me a death glare and said "strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla." I said great, I'd take 3 of each. She asked what kind of frosting I wanted and I said again "I don't know what flavors you have, what are my options?" She said "ugh never mind I'll get your cupcakes." Before she could close the door on me I asked what kind of bars she had, figuring I'd get something for my husband and I for after dinner dessert. She acted like I asked her to wash my car with her toothbrush! She said "unicorn bars." I asked what those are, because again there isn't a description on the website! She said "we got peanut butter brownies too." Great I'll take two! As I hand her my card she had the nerve to ask "are you tipping your baker today?" Really? After the eye rolls, sighing, and attitude you want a tip! I figured maybe she was having a bad day so I said "sure, add $2 on." Finally that put a smile on her face. But then it took 10 minutes to bring the order out. She hasn't mentioned it would be that long of a wait when she knew I had kiddos in the car! So many businesses have adapted to the new normal, this one really seems to be struggling with remote ordering and customer service! read more

This adorable bakery can be missed given its tucked in a strip center at a busy intersection. It is a local favorite, however. Their cupcakes are delicious. I have had a few of their mini's but recommended the vanilla with custard inside. The shop displays decorated cakes, especially for weddings, that are hand painted. The talented artistry is evident in all their samples on display. Beautiful!!! They also have gelato ice cream, although having only tried it once, it didn't seem to be as fresh as possible, so I recommend sticking with the baked goods. A gem of a local spot where dinner guests will be mighty pleased if you select an array of baked goods, including cookies and bars, for a dinner party! Recommended. read more

A Bakeshop - The Vintage (cupcake) - Bakeries Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This review is for their wedding cake services only. Had I known how much stress ordering from A Bakeshop would put on me before my wedding, I would never have ordered my cake from them. In fact, the only stress I had throughout the wedding process was caused by A Bakeshop and whatever the owner happened to be going through at the time. From the moment I put in the deposit on the cake, it ended up being nothing but errors or her part. How hard is it to get 3 flavors and the color of a cake right? After several emails back and forth, I legitimately wondered if we shouldn't have a Costco cake as a backup, because I was seriously wondering if they would even deliver the cake! The day of our wedding, we were just happy to hear the cake had been delivered for the reception, but I have to say, instead of a pink cake (like I ordered) it was white. Also, the cake was just not good. Completely different from what we had at the tasting and not worth it. I wish we had gone somewhere else (even Costco would have been better taste wise) and not wasted well over $1000 on such a bad cake. I do have to say it does deserve one star for the decoration though. Even though it was the wrong color, it was a beautiful cake. read more

First of all, I am a pretty darned good baker so when I say these cupcakes are some of the best I have ever had, I mean EVER! My only disappointment was that I only got the minis because I was preparing for a taste test across several bakers. I need search no further. I sampled the carrot cake and funfetti as these are two flavors I'm looking at for a party coming up. Cake is mostly about cake for me, frosting- meh. The carrot cake was so moist and had so much fresh flavor and the cream cheese frosting was as good as mine, not overly sweet. The funfetti had a fresh tender white cake base and a very nice frosting. I would dial down the frosting on this one a bit, but mostly because I'm not a fan of the sweetness. I will be back and I will be ordering for the party. This is it. The search is over and I couldn't be happier to not be baking and decorating 100 cupcakes! read more
