Yum. Yum. Yum! I haven't yet gotten a cake that I didn't enjoy. There is always a line out the door but this tiny shop runs like a well oiled machine--or well buttered cake pan. They have all their cakes pre-sliced and pre packaged so it takes just a minute to grab your slice or two. They do full cakes and with advanced notice they will do a short message on top. Cakes are delicious and quintessentially Southern. The buttercream frosting will make you tear up. This is a black, female owned business which makes it even more worth supporting. I *heart* cake bar! read more

I tried cake bar 3 years ago and was very impressed. I recently purchased 3 slices of dry cake. Not sure what happened to the quality read more

Cake Bar has been my favorite for about 3-4 years now! It has always been great and never disappointing. However, I was quite surprised when my birthday cake was not "finished" and dry (See Picture). My sister bought the cake and wasn't shown the cake at purchase, she was also in a rush and figured the pre-order was sufficient enough to have covered the full request i.e. topping. I was so disappointed seeing this cake! So much so, I didn't even want it anymore. I'm big on the presentation! :( Anyway, we contacted them the following day and their first response was "well, we've sold 'x' amounts of cakes today and you have been the first complaint". That made me kind of frown... Anyway, we responded telling them that we had pictures as proof if need be-- they declined and instead gave us a store credit. We will be back, but with caution! I understand that their business is booming and doing great, but this cannot happen especially on special days like birthdays. We will continue to purchase our celebratory cakes here and look forward to future cakes. read more

My friend raved about this place so much that I finally begged her to take me. Due to Covid, there was a line. There could only be like 3 people in there at once, which I could certainly appreciate. They do have a cake vending machine there but for some reason it wasn't working. I didn't ask why. The variety of cakes is large. All types, all sizes. You can actually order a birthday cake If you choose. I ordered the key lime cake as well as the old fashioned yellow cake with chocolate icing. That old fashioned cake always makes me think about my grandmother. Both cakes were so good. I honestly can't even decide which one is my favorite. I would just take a bite out of one then a bite out of the other. Hahaha! The sizes of the cake are hefty but so is the price. So don't expect to pay $2 for a slice of cake, that's not the case at all. They are pricey. The larger cakes even more. The service was good. Nothing spectacular but nothing bad either. "Hey how are you, how can I help you?" You give them your order, they ring it up , you pay. Bada bing bada boom It's in a cool area with other restaurants and etc. Lovely place to go on a Sunday go eat then grab a piece of cake on the way out. read more

Cake Bar - Strawberry Cake - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - Dallas, Texas

We've been Cake Bar customers since they first opened in Trinity Groves. Customer service has always lacked (still does), but the cake WAS always great. Ordered German Chocolate and Red Velvet a few weeks before they moved. Both were dry. The German Chocolate frosting and the cake itself tasted spoiled. Blamed it on them preparing to move. Now they have moved to a new location which is not as quaint as Trinity Groves. Ordered the same two flavors from the new location yesterday and quality had gotten even worse. They both were really dry and nearly hard. Not moist at all. The German Chocolate frosting was dry and the texture was firm and thick when it should be creamy. The cream cheese frosting on the Red Velvet was bland. They charge too much for a slice of cake that's inedible. Extremely disappointed. read more

This place is really cute and it has a ton of variety for anyone who loves pastries. I went in looking to buy one piece of cake and left with 5!!! They all looked so delicious it was hard to make a choice. Lucky for me they sell whole cakes and by the slice. All of the cakes I bought that day were amazing. They have a very good recipe for these cakes and I will most definitely be coming back for more. I recommend this place highly it's very good. read more

Best cake in the world ... well it was a few weeks ago. Greatly inconsistent. Today the same thing was gross. Almost no icing. Cake not cooked properly. Disappointing because it isn't cheap and I went a long way. Plus the people yell out "next in line" rudely. Plus what is that smell outside?! read more

I wish I could give this "place of business" a negative review. Today I drove to the Cake Bar to order my birthday cake (a simple 8 inch round red velvet cake with light decorations on top). I drove up there because after trying to call this place over 8 times between Friday and Sunday, they were not answering the phone (this was the first sign that this place is a shitty business). I contemplated even ordering my cake from there because I've heard mixed reviews about their cake, but since my favorite bakery is still temporarily closed due to COVID, I took a leap of faith by deciding to order my cake from the Cake Bar anyway. My sister and friends kept telling me not to order from them because of the inconsistent reviews but the Cake Bar is near my house, and is open for business right now, so supply and demand got the best of me. (I guess this was sign #2) Nonetheless, I arrived ten minutes upon closing and stood in line to place my order. Immediately upon arriving there, I saw that there were several employees present (some of who were not assisting customers or baking)and I instantly got angry because I could've saved gas and time from driving up there if somebody, hell anybody, would've just answered the phone. (This was the third sign) Once it was my time to order, the woman who I believe was named Cecelia (a middle aged black woman with a short hair style) took my order. When I told her I was ordering a cake for the upcoming Friday, she looked annoyed at me and said, "You can call in to place this order". (Fourth sign" After that I told her, "Well I've been trying to call but no one answered", she responded "Well did you try to call today because today's normally a busy day", and then I said "well I'm here now so can I just order?" (Fifth sign) After that, Condescending Cecelia said nothing to my question, and jotted down my order. I gave her my card for the payment, and then she asked for the details for my cake. I told Condescending Cecelia that I wanted the 8 inch round red velvet cake, with a few sliced strawberries on top. Condescending Cecelia told me they couldn't add fresh strawberries on top because they didn't have any and wouldn't have any. (Sixth sign - I thought this was strange because how are you making strawberry cakes without using fresh strawberries???) Next, I asked Cecelia if she could just drizzle some caramel icing on top of the cake instead, and she told me they couldn't do that either because they didn't have any caramel. As she was telling me that, I was looking straight at their caramel cake so I was confused and very annoyed by now. (Seventh sign) Next, after going back and forth with Condescending Cecelia and dealing with her attitude, I asked for a refund. After getting the refund, I told Cecelia that I may actually keep my order but I just needed a minute to make a final decision (I was thinking about my birthday that was quickly approaching and knew I wanted a cake, and needed to order it soon) - you see supply and demand was getting the best of me again Literally less than 30 seconds later, Condescending Cecelia rudely yelled out "We closed!" while of course not looking at me, but looking at the register. After that, I just left. I refuse to give my money to a business that can't answer the phone, that's rude to their customers, and that cannot make SIMPLE additions to an order (even after I've offered to pay for the additions). Cake Bar, you should be ashamed. I hope the owner sees this and enacts some change and customer service training because Miss Condescending Cecelia obviously needed it. Your cake is not that good for poor service. Do better. read more

Y'all it's game over for all of us during COVID. Cake Bar just rolled out a cake VENDING MACHINE. You heard that right! Ever smoke a lil and started to crave something sweet but don't want to eat another row of oreos? Well, now you can just have a responsible friend drive you over to select a slice of deliciously moist cake. This place is my go-to spot whenever I need to buy a cake for a birthday, anniversary, or any other occasion that requires I bring something. You can never go wrong with a slice of strawberry or chocolate cake! I tend to take "The Hummingbird" for celebrations and it's always well-received. The reason why I'm knocking down one star is that while I love the hummingbird, I don't taste any notes of pineapple in the cake. I think the banana comes thru to the point that it reminds me of banana bread with frosting. read more

The German chocolate is by far the best cake there. It is absolutely delicious, so fluffy, and the taste is incredible. It just never disappoints. I've also had the red velvet a few weeks ago and it was quite disappointed. Something about the frosting just tastes different and not in a good way. Red velvet is usually a safe option but I wouldn't get it here again. I haven't wanted to try many other flavors, mainly because I LOVE the German chocolate too much. Service is always quick, which I appreciate. Looking forward to my next slice of heaven. read more

This place isn't even worth it anymore. The cake has become so inconsistent. I literally was charged full price for a half slice of cake. Also, some slices are so dense and just taste old. Done with this place. read more

I was so excited to come here and get a birthday slice of cake! My friends and everyone who I've met who've been here said amazing things about this place and especially about the strawberry cake so I went with high expectations and I was so excited! As soon as you walk in you will be confused. The flow of the bakery isn't good and wasn't planned out very well. You will not know where to go to see the cake samples and to get your slice of cake. I cannot explain it to you but as soon as you go there you'll completely understand what I'm talking about. I ordered the strawberry cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (cost over $7) and my friends and I were so excited to try the cake! First bite made me want to cry. It was so bland and partially dry. It didnt taste like strawberries! The redeeming factor was the freshly sliced strawberries and they were better than the actual bland, artificially flavored and colored strawberry cake. I tried the vanilla ice cream and it had ice crystals. I'm not going into detail about how disappointed I was about the cake and ice cream because I came here for my bday but this place is literally all hype. I tried the wedding cake which was okay and the coconut cake which was actually really good! That coconut cake was perfectly moist and not overly sweet so great job on that one but the strawberry and wedding cake were a flop. If you just want a slice of cake if you are in the area then this is the place to be. Overall, I may come back and try other flavors and give Cake Bar another chance but now I will go with my expectations a little lower than before. read more

I bought a SMALL $7 slice of wedding cake today, and I was highhhhly disappointed. The cake was tasteless, stale, old, dry, gritty, and dense. Yes. ALLLL those things. The last time I came here, I received a damaged birthday cake, however it tasted decent so I decided to give them another try. NEVER AGAIN! I'm really shocked they would charge this much for cake that taste this bad. Kroger and Tom Thumb's cake tastes so much better. read more

I have visited Cake Bar for years. I love to support Black-owned businesses, and I will definitely support this one. Only thing is that I wish some (not all) of the ladies would be a bit nicer and I also wish they had another location with more seating so you can sit and eat (the only seating is outside with just 2 small tables seating 2 people each). I will be back soon! Btw the hummingbird cake is the best one along with strawberry! Here are some pictures of their cake! read more

Cake Bar - An old pic of an assortment of cakes (key lime, strawberry, pineapple upside down, and idk the other one) - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - Dallas, Texas

We went in today-Oct 9, 2024. A older lady was standing in the space where tables are set out -at the entrance. She didnt acknowledge us but instead kept talking to some guy seated in there while she was putting out holiday decor. We stood there waiting for more than 5 minutes & then decided to leave since no one was helping us. As we were leaving she said " can I help you with something" REALLY??? We were clearly there trying to buy something. What a joke - horrible service or lack there of!!This may explain why their entire cake case was still fully stocked! I won't be coming back. $6.47 a slice- nope! read more

I love the cakes but today I stopped in to buy a 8" and 3 5" for a party. I asked if they would slice the larger cake since it was slow , the girl at the counter went to the back and said NO they can't slice it. But 3 people standing around in the back. Then I pay for my cakes , no thank you, come back, enjoy... nothing. Service is lacking and it's not like I couldn't go to another bakery or Gigis , HEB. Seems they could make you feel appreciated read more

I just don't get this place. Been here a hand full of times and way too expensive. It's $35 for a very tiny cake. Almost $7 for a piece. That's insane. Quality and taste are good, but nothing that's any different from your local HEB in my opinion. And we are way passed this pandemic, and this place acts like it's still just starting. I understand having some safety measures in place, but walking into this place makes you feel like we're heavy into 2020 pandemic. They adapted well when Covid hit, but they need to adapt again. read more

It pains me to give Cake Bar only 2 stars because I really wanted to like it but man, how can I give this place more than 2 stars when the cake was extremely dry? I've had Cake Bar bookmarked for years. I love the concept of it - getting individual slices of traditional, southern style, made-from-scratch cake (rather than cupcakes) or simply getting an entire cake. I love the name. I love the store. I love the location. So many different flavors, so many different options. They look good and simple at the same time but alas, the cake looks better than it tastes. Imagine the disappointment when after the initial bite, I realized the anticipation was all for naught. I got a slice of the wedding cake but if I was serving that on MY wedding day, I'm thinking my guests would leave prematurely. Cake is SUPPOSED to be moist. It LOOKED dense and moist but looks can be deceiving. My slice was so crumbly and so dry - it just left a bad feeling in my mouth. The flavor of the actual cake was good and subtle, but flavor alone cannot save cake. If your texture is all off then your cake is all off. I wasn't a fan of the buttercream frosting either. It was a bit more "watery" (for lack of a better word) than I would have liked and the flavor just wasn't good. Disappointing. I had two bites and threw the rest of my cake away. Maybe I got an old slice of cake seeing as I didn't actually see them cut the cake. They had boxes already prepared. What a waste of money...I'd rather eat grocery store cake. read more

Cake Bar - Wedding cake - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - Dallas, Texas

I love the concept of a cake bar- love the idea behind it and thought that a cake bar happy hour that was BOGO is genius. I didn't like that there were no vegan options- Even if it's a mini cupcake or a simple cookie...would have loved to see an option for those with special dietary needs. Nowadays, there's no excuse- options are everywhere. Service was slightly sketchy and it seemed a little cramped inside. Register is opposite of the displays so its easy to get lost in the shuffle in there if its busy. One more star would've made me a fan but I can't say I can fully commit to this place just yet. Still needs a little tweaking. I went with Key Lime and Strawberry and Key Lime was the fave between the two. I'll definitely be back when visiting however to check in on them and see what the new happenings are in this little cake shop. read more

Everytime we fly into Dallas, we have to make at least two stops at the Cake Bar while we're in town! There is just greatness coming out of that Cake Bar; they are very consistent with their bake and flavors. My favorite is the piña colada cake, followed by red velvet, key lime, and caramel. We generally have the pick up cake for family members back in Atlanta when we are flying out of Dallas. And we've also recommended this place to other folks who visit in a Dallas. This sister owned establishment will always be a stop for us when we want to get sweets to satisfy our sweet tooth! read more

Damn fine cake! I enjoyed myself quite a bit with a slice of carrot cake, then I stole a few bites of my wife's Pina colada cake and then I attack my daughters strawberry cake and finished up with a few bites of my son's hummingbird cake. They were all delicious but if I were pressed to Declare a Victor for my favorite it would be the hummingbird. and of course if you're going to have cake you have to have milk, whole milk none of that nonsensical 2%. While everything did taste amazing I can't help to feel that it may be slightly overpriced at $5.25 a slice $15 for a 5" round and $40 for a 8" round. As ridiculous as it sounds I feel that if it was priced at $4.99 a slice I would feel better about myself lol but don't let the prices discourage you from enjoying an amazingly delicious slice of cake. I should also mention that the interior seating is a bit cramped but they do have outdoor seating as well just something to keep in mind. Why five stars and not JL foodie certified: The price point hurts a bit and then also I like to visit a establishment a few times for the sake of consistency before I declare JL foodie certified *Poor *Decent *Good *great *Best *JLFoodie Certified Food. Best Service. Good Cleanliness. Good Consistency. Coming soon Value. Great I realize I'm a food snob, I eat out regularly some weeks 3 to 4 times which in my opinion makes me a bit of an expert on food, service, quality etc. I say it how I see it and I usually will give restaurants at least three chances before I give up on them and in some cases after some time has past I revisit the restaurants to see if anything is changed and my reviews reflect that change. read more

He requested a carrot cake and I had to oblige.

I LOVE THIS PLACE. The cake is MOIST and just so freaking tasty. I've stopped by this place for a slice, and I've also ordered cakes from there. My favorite cakes so far are the red velvet and the chocolate. I ordered the chocolate cake for a baby shower that I hosted and it was a HIT. Everyone talked about how much they loved the cake. I don't believe they decorate, but the icing is beautiful and yummy! read more

OMG! I KNOW how mouthwatering chocolate is, but after eating a small sliver from the 5" round chocolate cake I bought, my experience became, dare I say, a sultry one! I never felt so sexy eating a piece of chocolate cake. That dark brown, moist, sweet cake was pure ecstasy! The dark chocolate icing was sweet, but not to sweet. I'm so glad I came and on a day where there wasn't a line wrapped around the building! The inside is small, but so frickin' cute! The ladies at the counter are fast and nice. There is seating, but because it can get packed, I personally would just get my sweets to go. I paid around $13 and some change. I will definitely be back. I was eyeing the red velvet cake and it was eyeing me back! read more

The Nilla wafers were a nice consistency and the bananas were not soggy; I would buy this again. The hummingbird cake slice was also nice, rich, and flavorful. I could taste each and every ingredient and the cream cheese frosting was also heavenly. I can't wait to try more of their treats!(: read more

Yeah, no! As a sugar tooth queen, one who LOVES a cake with minimum toppings and not all the extra, I was excited to try this place as recommended by friends and what seemed to be evidenced by the line inside on certain nights. That "feeling" of wanting to try their cakes lasted AT LEAST 2 years and I finally made my way over to taste the cakes recently. On the first visit I got two cakes; a basic yellow with chocolate icing and the strawberry. Now YALL KNOW a yellow cake with chocolate icing is my absolute favorite cake--plain jane here, and I don't care--but this cake was horrible. Upon the first bite I frowned because it had a sour taste. I thought it was just me and took another bite and yep, the taste was consistent. So I was good on that one. (And I partially lied, Red Velvet might be my favorite)...anyways. The strawberry, which was eaten the next day, tasted a lot better---but still nothing on my Grandmas (and that's real), but overall, nothing to speak highly about either. This last visit, I got the wedding cake (again, plain jane) and that one went straight in the trash after two bites...and well, 2 stars it will be....cause I've had way better, including in my kitchen. On the first visit the cakes were a lot more moist than on the second visit, but for them to be priced at 5 and some change a pop, I need them to be A). Fresh, B) To taste better and C) To be bigger pieces. Unfortunately I will not be back. read more

The owner and her sister were gracious hosts and offered suggestions. I couldn't believe the amazing selection of cakes, and the flavor and moistness blew me away.
