Custom cake
Bella G.

**Craving satisfied and then some.** I stopped by Bakery Express in Halethorpe, MD on a mission for a really good donut and let's just say, they understood the assignment. I started with their "top shelf" Coffee Roll for $1.25, and it absolutely lived up to the name. It was huge, fresh, not too sweet, and incredibly filling. I also grabbed a Cheese Danish for $1.95 to go. It was soft, buttery, and bigger than my hand. For the price? Total steal. What I didn't expect was the full café experience tucked inside. Naturally, I ordered breakfast: a toasted egg and cheese croissant sandwich with cheddar and four strips of crispy bacon for just $8. Add in a refillable small coffee ($1.69) and my total came to $13.47. Worth every bite. I left full and happy. Service was smooth and mostly self-serve; I loved the attention to hygiene: handwashing stations, sanitizer, and even plastic gloves provided when selecting donuts. Tons of seating, clean restrooms, and yes handicap accessible throughout. They also offer grab-and-go items like salads and subs, which makes it super convenient if you're short on time. The coffee was hot, fresh, and tasted just right...no burnt aftertaste. And let's talk desserts: cupcakes, cookies, slices of cake in just about every flavor imaginable. There's also a custom cake section, which I didn't explore fully, but I'll definitely be back to try more. Overall: 5 out of 5. Cozy, clean, delicious, and priced right. A hidden gem worth revisiting.

BAKERY EXPRESS HAS NEVER LET ME DOWN. The team (bakers and staff) who do the custom cake orders are phenomenal. The photos speak for themselves. The cake is also delicious.

Bakery Express knocked it out of the park!!! The cake not only tasted amazing but looked fantastic!! My daughter was beyond excited and everyone at her party loved the cake as well. The team at Bakery Express really understood the vision for the cake and went above and beyond with the design. This is the second customized cake we've purchased from Bakery Express and it won't be the last. You can't go wrong with this bakery.

Lemon pound cake.

Let me tell you.... I got up early this morning to come try this place out. Didn't make it here til about 830am. Parking was easy and let me tell you they were busy. I didn't know they offered some things where you could dine in. Dining area was nice, clean and spacious. The selection of goods were great. I chose a lemon pound cake, chocolate chip cookies, snicker doodle cookies, red velvet cupcakes and a slice of strawberry smith island cake. Nothing disappointed. Everything was fresh. My favorite was the strawberry smith island cake slice. It didn't even make it home. I ate it in the car. The service was very pleasant. Next time I must try the fresh donuts. They were looking good as well

I stumbled upon Bakery Express while searching for dessert one day and was pleasantly surprised, though the experience had its quirks. At first, I thought my GPS had led me astray--it took me to an industrial-looking area, but sure enough, the bakery is right next to their corporate offices. Parking was plentiful, which was a nice plus. Walking in, I was shocked at how large the space was and the sheer number of desserts available. While I found the doughnut flavors a little underwhelming, the rest of their pastry selection more than made up for it. I tried a doughnut and a slice of cheesecake, both of which were good--just not amazing. I'd likely return, though, simply because of the incredible variety. If you're a dessert lover, it's worth a visit for the selection alone!

Good, basic, self serve donuts at the bakery express cafe. This is a corp bakery that supports multiple locations. The bakery on site is clean and donuts are good, but not "artisan" or homemade. You can taste the standardized process. -- still yummy. And a great price too!

This place is awesome! Not only are they a giant bakery providing desserts, cakes, breads and more to many businesses but they also have an onsite restaurant. I love the donuts here! They are super fresh and have a lot of variety. I love the pb&j donut. Their sandwiches are awesome, make sure to request a pretzel bun. If you need a fancy cake or pastry for an event be sure to stop in!

Ever wake up one-morning craving donuts? Such was my morning, and a quick search on Yelp had me trekking Bakery Express. This donut shop is large, features a good-sized dining area, and offers sandwiches and breakfast items all day! I love toasted coconut donuts but settled for the one in-store, which was delicious. These are cake donuts, baked fresh and sized appropriately. The store also makes custom cakes, and the display almost had me ordering one...for research purposes, of course.

The picture I sent

I ordered a cake and cupcakes for my wife's birthday. Since it was a milestone birthday, I wanted to step up from the typical Costco sheet cakes and Walmart has been a disappointment lately. After thorough research, I landed on Bakery Express because of their pricing and prompt response to emails. I'm glad to say that it was a great decision. Every time I interacted, both in person, on the phone and in email, they've been nothing but pleasant and accommodating. Most importantly, my wife's cake came out nearly identical to the picture I sent them for inspiration. The cake was Red velvet w/ white chocolate mousse and white buttercream. I got 2 types of cupcakes. Carrot w/ cream cheese swirl & Lemon w/ lemon buttercream and amaretto filling. We loved everything except the lemon buttercream frosting. It had a strong chemical flavor to it. My wife liked the filling though. Overall, the experience was great. I'd definitely use them again in the future.

My first time here... what an amazing experience. Got French toast and a dozen doughnuts. The doughnuts were amazing!! And my Son loved his bacon eggs and chz

If you like old time bakeries and not the grocery store kind, this is the place for you. They do bakery catering as well as one on one. The area where items are baked is kind of like the size of a small factory and Yet their items have not lost their taste of what a local bakery used to be. And their staff are GREAT. Very polite and friendly and knowledgeable about their products. They have fresh bread, huge danish like pastries, pies, cakes and a large variety of donuts. You can dine here! They have sandwiches and beverages and a few dine in tables. Flash back 40 years and enjoy this place. You will thank me.

Strawberry Smith island cake.
Aj M.

I could smell them from down the street! I was passing through and I smelled baked bread. The GPS confused me, because it's attached to the distribution center. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in. Very clean and spacious. The staff was also very friendly. I ordered a slice of strawberry smith island cake first...so good. Then I got the chicken sandwich on a pretzel bun. Everything was delicious!!! The bun is so soft and chewy. The chicken is seasoned pretty good too. I also got sweet tea.

Old Bay cheddar bagel
Thomas M.

I searched on Yelp for bagels near me and Bakery Express came up as #2 on the list. This is not the place to go for bagels. They were pretty raw and we were just eating dough. Their specialty seems to be cakes and cupcakes and there was a line for doughnuts. I would go back for other bakery items but definitely not bagels.

BEST CAKE OR PIE TO PURCHASE FOR SOMEONE ELSE to show them how good this place is? (I usually only buy individual donuts, pretzels, etc for myself & family, want to give a dessert as a gift!)

It depends on what the person likes. My parents favorite is the carrot cake so we get that a lot. Everything is amazing!

Does anyone know the calorie information and how many grams of sugar are in one glazed donut? My job sells them but there's no info on the box. I saw that they are ordered from Bakery Express.

serious communication issues left me without a cake for my father's 80th birthday party. besides…read morethe initial email, there was no attempt at further communication. no phone call, text, or follow up email. i did not understand how a bakery without an address or any method of customer pock up could then charge a $10 delivery fee. overall, for a $93 cake i expected much better business practices

I was initially thrilled to do business with Stacey Cakes, as she came highly recommended. My first…read moreconversation with her went well, and I explained to her that I needed the order for my daughter's sweet 16. I had thoroughly researched her website and social media beforehand. We had arranged to pick up the order on the morning of the event. When my cousin and I arrived on time, we found Stacey still in the process of preparing the order. As we waited, I noticed ants crawling around the box of cupcakes. At first, I thought I was mistaken, but upon closer inspection, I found another one. I immediately brought this to my cousin's attention and then alerted Stacey. Instead of addressing the issue professionally, she began yelling and using offensive language. Although she apologized and offered to remake the order. I accepted but then as soon as I left her establishment I sent her a text to declined as I was too disgusted and frustrated to accept anything from her store. In my text I expressed my concern about the health and sanitation issue and requested a full refund. However, she only acknowledged my message late that evening, stating that she was already remaking the order and would discard the original. I responded professionally, reiterating my request for a refund to be issued to my card. She confirmed that the refund had been processed and that I would receive an email confirmation. Subsequently, I waited for five days while the transaction was pending, only to find out yesterday that she had retracted the charge. I immediately sent her another text urging her to rectify the issue as soon as possible, but I have neither heard back from her nor seen any sign of the refund being reissued. I find this level of unprofessionalism completely unacceptable, especially in the food business where there are potential health risks. Stacey should have taken accountability for the situation. Not only was I out of the money for the original order, but I also had to spend more money to purchase a cake at the last minute. In light of my experience, I strongly advise against doing business with her. This whole situation has been utterly disgusting and unacceptable.
