I was fortunate to come across Carla's Cupcakes when a friend sent me her link when we were talking about home made goodies for weddings..I'd originally thought he contacted her for his wedding which wasn't the case. Regardless..I'm absolutely blessed to have found her, Carla is absolutely amazing and her home made treats are too!! I went to her for a tasting where she put together other assorted goodies and I had quite a selection to chose from..they were even presented nicely with my wedding colors etc. I'd specifically requested Chai cupcakes as Chai is one of my absolute favoritest things in the world!!! Chai has always been there to soothe my nerves in times of stress so why wouldn't I want to share that with folks on my wedding day?!? She can address special dietary concerns such as gluten free and other allergies. Carla put together a variety of mini cupcakes, cake pops, mini smore's, shaped chocolates, vanilla cupcakes, chocolate flavored, vanilla frosted and a huge amount of effort went into the tasting, and has been a delight to work with!! My lovely fiance has a specific palate that is not delighted by everything. Her samples I brought home put a smile on his face and he proclaimed several compliments which is indeed quite rare. "THIS WOMAN HAS TALENT!!" Yes people..she truly does and is awesome. :)

Recently, we were in Sterling and decided to pick up some "bundtlets" from the Nothing Bundt Cakes…read morethat is there. It literally had been years since we bought any. We had them later that evening and we were quite impressed with them. They were moist and flavorful. In fact, we think they had improved since we last tried them. Since we liked them so much, we decided to visit the store in Herndon and get some more. The "server" (that's what the sales clerks are called) in Sterling gave me a punch card when I bought the cakes there so I remembered to use it at the Herndon store. My first impression of the Herndon place was very positive. It was very clean and well laid out. To me, it had a very welcoming vibe. The server, Katerine, was very friendly, patient and helpful. She let me know that since I was buying at least 4 bundtlets, I would get a free insulated bag that held up to 6 bundtlets. I ended up buying 3 lemon ones, 2 red velvet and 1 classic vanilla. She was sure to update my punch card. Then she told me that if I filled out a survey that was mentioned on the receipt, I would get a coupon for 1 free bundtlet. Once I was home, I did just that. Also, I signed up for their "eClub" which gives you a free bundtlet on your birthday. All in all, a great shopping experience that had me leaving with a smile on my face. The bundtlets here are just as good as the ones in Sterling. So...it goes without saying that we'll be back for more!

From the get-go, Dorea is one of the most friendliest, outgoing people you will ever meet. You can tell she's passionate about her work because you can tell how excited she is & her ideas really come to life. I originally booked her for May 2019, but then life events popped up! So my first cake ordered was for my S.O's aunt in March & boy was everyone impressed. I received nonstop questions about who my cake person was now! All of his family members raves over how delicious the cake was and how dense it was. It wasn't too sweet (lemon) & the vanilla buttercream was a perfect pairing. I already have her booked for a few more events & I cannot wait to update this review with some more photos of all the goodies I get from her!

Deliciously Amazing!…read more I ordered a funfetti flavored cake with vanilla icing for my daughter's 20th birthday.

THEY FORGOT TO BAKE MY WEDDING CAKE. And 4 weeks later, still have not provided me a full refund,…read moreeven after promising to do so. Countless email exchanges and multiple texts have been made between myself and the owner, Dennis Stanley, and still I find myself not financially whole. The least they can do is return what I paid. As I will never be truly whole.. for the wedding cake was what I was looking forward to the most, and the realization it would not be coming left me in tears. To do this to a bride and then have her continuously email for restitution and provide TERRIBLE communication is a truly awful thing to do. ***DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS*** And in general, their communication is terrible. They don't answer the phone and you have to email 2 or 3 times before they respond. Weddings are already expensive and stressful -- do yourself a favor and don't add to it by using Chantel's Bakery. EDIT AFTER OWNER COMMENT: Chantel's Bakery never reached out to me after the credit card did not go through. Actually, the opposite. I emailed Chantel's two days after the in-person meeting informing them that my credit card had not been charged and asked when it would be. I NEVER RECEIVED A RESPONSE. It was not until the morning of my wedding did I receive a PayPal invoice, in which was paid within 3 hours of receipt. Maybe a planner would have been helpful in completing additional follow-ups with the business WHICH IS CLEARLY REQUIRED, so that I didn't have to be the one to realize the cake was missing. However, a business should establish some sort of organization that would allow them not to forget an order IN THE FIRST PLACE. The sad fact is that Dennis told me that the error should have never happened it was entirely their fault and he would provide a FULL REFUND which he has failed to do. They may not have time to complete your order or follow through on promises made, but they sure do have time to falsely respond to negative reviews. Again, I repeat DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS.

It's even smaller, and in a tiny random, not where you would expect to find bakery! It has a tiny display of fresh pastries, shelf full of fresh baked breads and freezer full of more breads! Service is great, always with a smile. We tried a little bit of everything and ended up going back a couple of days later for some fresh bread. Finding good, like good gf bread is really hard. Most times literally hard. Got the brioche buns and was impressed for gf buns! Yes they still fell apart. Yes they weren't as soft as traditional brioche, but they were good for gf buns. I love their ham and cheese croissant. It's greasy, I prefer it cold, my kid only likes it warmed up. Donut is by far the best gf cake style donut we've ever had. It's light, flavor is incredible, moist. I typically skip gf cake donuts, but this one was calling to me, so happy we got it. Cinnamon roll was not good. Frosting had zero sugar. It was hard as a rock, so no one wanted to eat it. But as most gf cinnamon rolls, you have to eat them within a few hours, so this one could have just been too old. There's a decent amount of gluten free bakeries scattered across the DMV area, but this is by far the best for bread! The best variety, fresh and frozen. If they sell out of something you can count on they'll have a back up of something similar. Also. surprised to see complaining about prices..... I actually think they aee cheap for gluten free items!

She was a pleasure to work with and delivered the cakes beautifully decorated and on time. We ended up getting the 8" cake with gold foil and real flowers. It was so beautiful and elegant. Once we cut into it, we saw that it was a carrot cake so we knew we were having a boy! The carrot cake itself was perfect. We've had many carrot cakes in the area and all agreed this was the best! It was moist and had a perfect frosting to cake ratio. The sweetness level was exactly what we were looking for- not too sweet. We also ordered a tray of baklava. It was crunchy, full of nuts, and not too sweet. It was $35 for the tray. Much more affordable than buying it by the piece at a bakery. Can't wait to try more of Fadia's treats. We were tempted by the cookies but will wait for next time!
