I think my favourite thing about this bakery is that they do a monthly cupcake. I also like that they do smaller sizes instead of only big sizes. The one thing that bothers me is that they do not keep their social media up to date and you have to message to ask questions, etc. instead of the information being given to you. Other than that this place is delicious! read more

Absolutely delicious. I ate a couple of their mini cupcakes and found myself audibly saying "wow!". I appreciate their variety of unique flavours, the obvious freshness and softness of the cupcakes, and friendly staff! Highly recommend. read more

I eat a lot of cake. Enough cake to know when I've had great cake. Resumé: * I'm 46. That's 46 cakes that I've eaten right there. * Married... another cake. * Attended a ton of weddings... a ton of cake... * Relatives and in-law birthdays... more cake... * Two kids... 14 more cakes collectively... Starting to get my drift? CAKE Bake Shoppe makes awesome cake and cup cakes. In my opinion (comparing to every cake I've ever eaten) probably the best cake I've ever had, except this cake I once ate during military deployment to Somalia in '92-'93... the cake was actually crap but for the fact that it was something sent from home to this far away land, it was the best cake ever. All kidding aside... here's what I like about CAKE Bake Shoppe. * Variety. There are a lot of flavours and choices. I particularly love the root beer and carrot cakes myself. * The sugar cookies. They don't give me heartburn which is a BIG deal because the sugar cookies from Costco, Superstore or the Sobeys bakery across the street ALWAYS give me heart burn. * Creative cakes. Sure, you can get a standard classic cake, but they do some amazing things with fondant (sp?) that makes a cake look like some kind of wonderful. It's crazy what they can make. I don't plan on getting married again so I'll like never try their wedding cakes unless I get invited to a wedding and they get their cake from CAKE. The owner - Tanya - is a gem with a real sense of humour. Watch her do her magical craft just once and you'll realize the heart, passion and soul that she puts into her work. She's got a great team working with her too. CAKE is the real deal, they make amazing things made out of cake. Try one of those mini cup cakes... I bet you CAN'T have just one. read more

Tanya is one of the sweetest and most fun girl ever! If she is behind the counter (she is the owner) when you go in there you are lucky! These cupcakes are amazing! I do admit that I avoid going there as I am trying to lose some weight and these cupcakes taste to good. We order our admin week cupcakes from them, this is the second year and we will keep ordering! mmmmm read more

CAKE Bake Shoppe - our admin cupcakes - Bakeries Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I discovered this place through Groupon and I'm SO glad I did! I placed an order for same day pick up and even though they require 24 hours notice Tanya (the owner) kindly accommodated my request. The cupcakes look amazing and were delicious! What I love is that they are a peanut/ nut free facility which is perfect for people like myself who have severe allergies. I highly recommend this bakery. read more

I quite like these cupcakes. The only ones I didn't like were the cookies and cream (tasted like nothing) and the vanilla one with the bright blue icing (tasted like food colouring). The salted caramel is excellent and so is the mocha - flavours you can't find just anywhere. I also really enjoyed the double chocolate and the berries one. The icing is quite hard but I didn't mind. Comparable in price to other cupcake shoppes. read more

Best gluten free cupcakes in the city! They have an incredible selection. There's something for everybody. read more

I purchased a gluten free cake ( Red Velvet) for my friends Birthday yesterday. It was amazing. The flavour was great and it was beautifully moist. This is my new go to bakery for special occasion cakes. read more

Their cakes and cupcakes are really good - however the Cake order I placed for pick up today wasn't ready on time. I made it super clear that i needed it right at 10 and when my co-worker got there to pick it up they needed another 10-15 min which made the cake late to our surprise meeting. I also had them write on the cake and honestly it was off-centered and and exclamation was put where u had asked for a period. I know these things seem small but when you you're paying almost 100 dollars for a cake the details matter.. I have done a large bulk request from there before and everything came out perfectly. Not sure what happened today. read more

Mmm MMmm good. I was so happy when I noticed that the little cupcake shop had been transformed into something new. When I walked in I prayed that there was new management and that cupcakes might actually be worth eating and OMGAWD are they ever worth eating. since they opened I can not stop myself from going back. The cupcakes come in an array of fun flavors including root beer float. The owner is kind and helpful. so go on and treat yourself. you will not regret it! read more

MMMmmmmm Mmm Good!! Waste of money? NO. Icing too thick or hard? Ummm what planet are you from! I love these cupcakes made FRESH everyday! The icing is the best part if you ask me :) This bakery will create beautiful works of art for your taste buds to enjoy. Fun flavours and out of this world cake designs. I highly recommend this bakery if you are in the area for a treat or need to order a cake for any upcoming event. read more

Ordered 175 cupcakes two weeks before my wedding. 35 of 5 flavours. This came to about $300, so not a small chunk of change. Sent my brother on morning of the wedding to pick them up. He came home with 144 cupcakes. Luckily I counted the cupcakes so I called on Saturday the 20th August and was told "yea we only had four flavours recorded". So instead of getting hold of me they just short changed my cupcakes!!! Very unprofessional and dishonest. So they did not have 35 lemony cupcakes so I had to get what was on hand....vanilla. Had to send my friend at 3pm to pick up the rest of the cupcakes. Very unhappy with this service, unprofessional and dishonest. Do not get bulk cupcakes for your wedding here. I am disappointed I did not get what I originally ordered. read more

By end of last year and before the Christmas, my boyfriend and I went to the Cake Bake Shoppe to buy some desserts for the coming holiday. The cake bake shoppe is located 11 McKenzie Towne Ave SE #230, which is 10 minutes away from our home. It's a small local family owned cake bakery. The store serves different kinds of cupcakes and desserts. All the cakes, cupcakes, and desserts were fresh. People can also order the cakes based on their flavors. We're there in the store right after the lunch. There was only one lady server in this store. She was nice and friendly. She was very helpful and provided a great customer service to us. We ordered 6 big cupcakes from the store. The prices of the cupcakes were a little bit expensive. The single cupcake is $3.85; 1/2 Dozen - 20.99; Dozen - 39.99. The taste of cupcakes were great. I love the cream on top of each cupcake so much. It was a great experience having desserts at Cake Bake Shoppe. read more

I love CAKE Bake Shoppe. I ordered a cake from them randomly last minute for a birthday dinner. All my guest (even those who don't normally like cake) loved it. Since then I've gotten cupcakes for a couple occasions and they are made to order! No limits, and priced very well! Also gluten free options that taste amazing! read more

Ordered a Very Berry cake and simply put, was not happy. The cake flavour had no indication of vanilla, but rather banana and frankly missed the mark in 'a combination of flavours way' with the overly sweet berry infused icing. I had purchased a chocolate ganache several years ago, that brought me back, but this cake would not in the future. Reached out directly by email to the location, no response. Will not be back read more

This place is unbelievably unprofessional!! I ordered two and a half weeks before my daughters 6th birthday due to COVID. I knew it was going to be a hard time but I paid and got confirmation. I selected delivery and on the website it asked for a delivery time. As a 6 year olds birthday party starts in the afternoon I chose 12pm. It was 3pm and still no cake. We had to leave for her party without a cake. I paid $85 and no cake!!! No one should ever ever ever use this place!!!!! RUINED MY DAUGHTERS BIRTHDAY read more

ordered a white cake, white icing, for a small ceremony on sunday. the cake turned out to be blue, and banana flavored. Not a good combination for a pink and white room for a girl that's never eaten a banana in her life. Very disappointed! read more

We sent a variety of cupcakes, cake pops and cookies to our family in Calgary as a get well gift, and it was a huge hit. We heard everything was absolutely delicious and the customer service was first rate. Great job CAKE Bake Shoppe. read more

YUM! Thats all I really have to say. Great local bakery to drop in and grab some sweet treats. Only complaint is too many cupcake flavours to choose from! read more

Waste of money. Not for kids, icing is too thick and hard, almost fondant like, cake is oily. Ordered cupcakes for 6 year olds party and not one child ate theirs. Too expensive. Go to Co-Op on 130th instead. Quarter of the price and much better. read more

Absolutely love love love their cupcakes. Seriously the icing is to die for. We come all the way from the north end of the city to go here. Service is always friendly and great. The custom cakes are spectacular and very detailed. You can tell the owner truly cares about her business. You Can see why this is such a popular place Will be back a lot! read more

I recently moved to south Calgary, was delighted to find this bakery hidden away in Mckenzie Towne. I had called a day before, inquiring about their shop, I was greeted by a friendly girl on the phone who seemed very helpful and knowledgeable. She informed me that they were a nut free facility and that they made custom cakes, cupcakes and cookies. I came in to check it out and probably looked like I was lost or something because the girl at the front greeted me and asked if it was my first time there. She offered me to sample one of their itty bitty cupcakes to try. I picked the red velvet, at the recommendation of the front staff. Wow!! They were absolutely amazing. So moist and the cream cheese icing on top was smooth and flavourful without being overwhelmingly sweet. All I can say is, this bakery gets 5 stars from me for the knowledgeable and friendly staff (who didn't seem "fake" and overly nice or pushy, I might add) and the tasty products! Definitely coming back for round 2 soon! Oh and the prices are modest. $3.50 for a big cupcake and like $2 for an itty bitty one. read more

I was incredibly disappointed with CAKE Bake Shoppe. I took the time to go into the store 11 days before my husband's 30th birthday and was told they don't take custom cake orders in the store and you must contact Tanya through the website. I went straight home and filled out the forms from their site, informing them of what I was looking for and the date I required the cake. I didn't hear from them for 3 days and started to panic. I sent another form asking anyone to contact me so, at the very least, I knew if I needed to contact another bakery (now being way too close to the date for a custom cake.) I still have yet to hear from anyone at the bakery and was forced to go to another bakery and order a generic cake from their menu. I can't express how frustrating the whole process was. I hope they are more accommodating to others. read more
