    50th Birthday cake with candles.

    I ordered a half sheet cake to celebrate my son's 50th birthday party. I asked them to duplicate on the cake his newborn photo and current photo. Both turned out perfectly. It was decorated exactly as I had asked and ready for pickup as promised. I worked with Amy, the owner, who was very accommodating, especially since I was ordering from out of state. Everyone at the party enjoyed it and commented on how delicious the cake was--light, moist, and not overly sweet. It was quite a hit. There were not a lot of leftovers for people to take home.

    I purchased a gorgeous and flavorful carrot cake for a birthday celebration. Highly recommend Bert's.

    Two smash cakes for my one year olds a a sheet cake for the rest all turned out great!! Just what we asked for!!

    I can't believe they are charging $25.00-$40.00 for cake.

    The prices they charge for items seems way to high. I saw these pictures on our community Facebook page and could not believe that the owners think people are okay paying these prices for baked goods.

    I needed a sweet 16 birthday cake! It turned out great! Holly assured me that the cake would be pretty. She did a wonderful job. It was perfect!

    Today would have been my Great-Grandma Tuts 101 birthday. She passed away in 2010, but I love to celebrate her life every year on her birthday. My husband had to go pick up some stuff for his work a few hours north and he came back with some beautiful cupcakes and a hot cocoa bomb. The idea of getting cupcakes for her birthday was from a gift I actually made her as a kid, one of those plastic things kids paint and you hang it up usually in a window. I made her a cupcake with purple frosting, which I now have and hold dear to my heart. Unfortunately, Bert's Bakery didn't have purple frosting on hand (if we had called for a custom order and given them time they may have but this was a last minute decision) so we got 2 chocolate and 2 vanilla cupcakes. Bert's Bakery definitely fit the bill for some delicious cupcakes. I've been here in the past and no doubt I'll come back again, the sooner the better. I honestly couldn't have chosen a better place.

    I've ordered from Bert's bakery before at their Kalamazoo location and they did an excellent job on my dads 50th surprise birthday cake. However, this time around I placed an order for my mom's 50th surprise birthday party and was all around disappointed in this cake... I emailed them the look of the cake and then went in to place the order. I did it this way because last time they told me I needed to email them first. I got a lecture as to why you're suppose to email after you've placed your order. Moved on from it because it's not that big of deal to me. I had requested to have a cake similar to the one I have shown. They said they can do everything but the chocolate covered strawberries on the top of the cake. Not a problem, so I bought macaroons to be added instead. I also specified I wanted as close to rose gold for the drips on the side of the cake. Lastly, I asked to have a two stacked cake to make it taller and they said that's something they could do. All around, had confidence they could make the cake I asked for, especially with a picture of what I wanted. I paid for the cake ($90) and didn't mind paying that much to have the cake I wanted for my moms birthday. Come day of the party, I pick up the cake and it's to say I was deeply disappointed in it was being generous. Now, I wasn't expecting it to be perfect, but for the price I paid, I was expecting at least something similar. The macaroons looked almost wet, the drips were just icing they did on the side, and the cake was cone shaped rather than sitting straight up. Just to top it off, the icing on the side of the cake was so thick that it fell off before I could even get it to the party. The reason I gave it a 2 star was because the cake did taste good, just very disappointed on the look of the cake for the price I paid. Will be calling to see if I can get a partial refund. Edit: Called the bakery and they were able to get me a $30 credit so I raised my rating a bit for them being accommodating. I appreciate them apologizing for this since their typical custom cake baker was gone this week and tried their best to accommodate my request.

    Our guests can't stop talking about the desserts!! We really struggled to find an option within our…read morebudget that allowed us to purchase a simple 2-tier cake. Most options require a minimum of a 3-tier with 200 plain cupcakes at $800+. Before finding Continental Pastries & Delicatessen, we were deeply disappointed in our cake tasting experiences (some costing $50 for 4 small bites of cake) and worried we may need to settle. Patty (aka Patty Cakes) was such a joy to work with during our tasting and did an amazing job at explaining all of their capabilities. We were able to purchase a 2-tier wedding cake and a variety of dessert options so every guest had something to enjoy. This included cupcakes with filling, cookies, brownies, GF options, cheesecakes, butter cookies, and so much more! The detail of our wedding cake was MUCH simpler than expected... but still looked nice in the end. We loved the location and friendly staff; we can't wait to live closer and enjoy the desserts more often!

Items in the bakery cases look good but they just don't taste of being freshly baked. Today was the last time we will visit. We bought a couple peanut butter cheesecake bites, a few cannolis and a cream puff. We expected the cream on the top of the cheesecakes to be soft and fluffy. It was hard. The cream puff shell was dry. The cannoli weren't filled completely and the filling was just not appetizing. We really wanted to rave about this bakery but just can't. I see so many great reviews here and on Google about their wedding/birthday cakes so maybe their fresh baked items are better.
