I also gave Lauren very vague instructions for decorating and thought they turned out so pretty! We also had The Hive bake for our wedding! Our DAIRY FREE cake was lemon cake, berry filling, and vanilla icing. We also got lemon macaroons with raspberry filling. All of it had copper leaf decoration and looked stunning. You guys... I still dream about those desserts. People couldn't believe the cake was dairy free. It was so flavorful and moist. The macaroons melted in your mouth. My husband, who doesn't typically do desserts, was looking forward to cake leftovers when we got back from our honeymoon. Unfortunately there was not much leftover because all our guests had eaten it!!! Support this small business and enjoy your cake!

Very tasty little bakery inside of Saraga! My sister and I have been in a few times together, but…read moremost recently my husband and I + my sister and BIL stopped in after spending the day in Castleton. Their bakery items are very pretty, but we have noticed that some of the offerings (like the stuffed donuts) do not really have a taste to them besides sugar- which is fine if you're just wanting a quick sugar rush, but disappointing if you're actually wanting to try an ube stuffed donut and then don't get any ube flavor at all. Their display offerings are very good and always taste like what they say they should. I've never tried any savory pastries from them, but I want to on my next visit. They have coffee, hot chocolate, frappes, smoothies, lemonades, etc as well. The tiramisu latte is amazing and I get it every time I go since it's always when it's fall/winter, but an iced coffee or lemonade sounds so good once the weather gets warm again. Plan your visit for early in the day before their pastries get bought up! They stay very busy and our last visit was late in the evening to coincide with grocery shopping in Saraga so we could take everything straight home to the fridge. They were very picked over, but I got a slice of pound cake to snack on with my latte and a load of milk bread. The milk bread is a family favorite, so I recommend trying that out if you've never had it before. They also sell some super cute "accessories" on top of the display case and I bought "Happy Birthday" candles for my husband's birthday earlier this month from them, as well as some that said "I Love You" for Valentine's Day.

I don't know how many African Americans come thru here but it's not worth the poor service and food especially the price. There are a few small tables if you wanted to eat there. The place is full of little statues and items that I guess represent Germany. Full on gnomes, if you like that sort of thing, which I do not. It's very crowded inside as well. I heard this place was good but I wasn't a fan. It's been there a long time so if you like like German themed decor and food give it a try. Maybe I just had a bad day.

The Dubai bundt cake has been calling my name, so I decided to stop in on a whim. To my surprise,…read morethe Dubai cake was still available. When I got to my destination, I allowed the cake to come to room temperature because I don't care for cold cake. First bite...yum. There was good chocolate flavor. The cake was moist and the buttercream was not overly sweet. As I dug towards the middle, I got to the most important part- the pistachio cream. It was the perfect texture, which I attribute to letting the cake come to room temperature. I would definitely get this again. As far as the store, it was clean, and the service was quick and staff were super friendly and helpful.

Oh, I remember the fried chicken from the one time I tackled the weekend buffet, but I DIDN'T remember that it should be on the TOP 3 LIST of Best Chicken in Indiana!! True story. Yes, I understand that the location might not be near your daily travels (maybe it IS), but I guarantee the fried chicken dinner with two sides will make you a believer. This bird (cooked fresh after you order) has a very lite but delicious coating, making the crisp skin irresistible. Under that first finger-licking layer was meat so tender that it glistened as I picked it off the bone. I chose a breast and a thigh with my meal, but salad bar (including a soup tasting of all three surprisingly good soups: chili, potato, and cream of broccoli) filled me up. I brought the breast home (along with the mashed potatoes and gravy and green beans). The thigh? Well, it didn't have a chance after just the first bite. If the once Civilian Conservation Corps camp isn't on YOUR bucket list of places to #GetLost, it should be. If you are out of town, should you make a weekend out of a foodie destination, stay the night at the historic Fort Ben Hotel, and then #GetLost on the trails of this beautiful state park? Absolutely! #Getlostindiana

Seems like the…read moreoffering and quality has declined quite a bit while the price went up, but I guess that is what's happening across the board. But let me mention the good things first: The bacon, so very delicious. The mashed potatoes and gravy get 3 gold stars. The fried chicken lived up to it's former glory. The staff was very friendly and kept our drinks refilled continuously and cleared the soiled plates off the table quickly. The not so great: The lady collecting payment up front... not the friendliest person Nobody manned the omelet and waffle station for half an hour after opening, so when it did open, a long line formed and it remained a long line since there was only one employee trying to handle the rush. At the carving station the ham was quite fatty and grizzled, so I didn't enjoy that at all. Most off putting though were the pies... when you think you're getting a nice piece of lemon pie and then it's still half frozen in the middle... I can buy some frozen pie elsewhere a lot cheaper. Was it worth roughly $30? Nahhhh

I walked into here for the very first time and let me tell you all the pictures you see online do…read morethis place no justice. As soon as you walk in all you want to do is put a crown on your head and enter the fairytale land that they have created here. It is absolutely incredible. If you walk in and walk to the right, you go to the gift shop, which also has all of the baked goods ready for you to purchase and walk out with. You can only sit down in the restaurant portion to the left when you walk in if you have either made a reservation or you're going to eat there apparently. They also have a patio area outside for you to sit and enjoy. But in this particular day, it was raining hard. I found out that they serve breakfast or brunch lunch as well. The menu looks pretty pricey, but I definitely wanna come back and try it out and try a cake slice for sure. This place is pricey, so prepare yourself. Also prepare yourself for all your foods that you order to be covered in sparkly sprinkles. The chocolate brownie we got was covered on the outside with sprinkles and the peanut butter fudge we got was covered in the sparkly sprinkles as well. The brownie was OK. It had a crusty top part, but I wouldn't say that this was super stand out. The peanut butter fudge was definitely rich. I will say that both were six dollars each and awfully tiny. So be prepared to spend a dime, be prepared to see people dressed up when you walk in here because they really make an effort.

We have had multiple road trips in which we have passed by Indianapolis. Each road trip has a…read morecustom itinerary and I rarely repeat places. The Cake Bake Shop is an exception and rightfully so. We have been to the Indianapolis location three times and this is our first visit to the Carmel shop. The atmosphere and glittering decor is whimsical. The service is exceptional. The food, especially the dessert, is exquisite. We celebrated our anniversary with crab beignets, Gwendolyn's signature chicken and andouille gumbo, and New Orleans shrimp po' boy with pommes frites. Our young daughters dined in with us so we asked for the Crystal hot sauce to be placed on the side. For dessert, we shared a slice of the celebration cake which had three different cake layers: vanilla cake with chocolate chips, chocolate cake, and vanilla almond confetti cake. The flavors are distinctive and came together with two buttercreams, vanilla almond and strawberry. It was delightful and delicate. However, I am still extremely loyal to my favorite, Gwendolyn's Famous Earl's Court Chocolate Cake. For take-out, we had the chocolate chip cookie with fleur de sel, walnut brownie, birthday macaron, and chocolate caramel macaron. I love dessert but cookies and brownies are generally at the bottom of my list. I generally prefer cake, donuts, ice cream, tarts, and various pastries. But once again, I make the exception for the Cake Bake Shop. My favorite is the walnut brownie because it has a nice, crispy crust and a soft center. It is perfection! It is also worth mentioning that the server sprinkled glitter on my girls' hands and hair so that they could make a wish with the celebration cake. If your young children is into anything sparkly and glittery, this definitely ups the notch to a wonderful and magical lunch experience! Safe to say - The next time we have a road trip in the general area, I am going to include The Cake Bake Shop in the itinerary.
