I've never been here! This cake came to me and am still compelled to review. A decadent, chocolate-on-chocolate masterpiece. The cake is incredibly moist and tender, with a deep cocoa flavor that feels rich without being overwhelming. It's layered and finished with a silky icing made from real chocolate--smooth, glossy, and luxuriously thick. read more

No matter what you try from this delightful shop, you cannot go wrong. Just had a carrot cake with cream cheese icing. Moist and loaded with flavor. You can order ahead for special occasions and it will ready when you want it. The inside of the shop is a wonderland of everything delicious. read more

This spot is a hidden gem. I almost don't want others to know about how good it is. Great spot for cupcakes they have standards and fancy options. The price point is very good considering other spots we've tried . We had the pound cake which was also good lots of delicious chocolate frosting. The owner is often there and working the counter and is nice and friendly ! Super important touch to be so involved. Close to home and a good deal ! You don't have to go to a fancy cupcake shop and lose and arm and a leg they have great Cupcakes for half the price ! read more

About four years ago I went to this bakery because a friend recommended it . The owner was so friendly. I needed a birthday cake and a few other items. Parking can be difficult tough .All street parking . The bakery it self is really cute. read more

Have you ever dreaded when birthdays, holidays, and special occasions come up and you have to purchase a cake? You know plenty of bakeries, but your mind still goes blank because nothing they make is memorable... That's how I felt until I peeked into my list of bookmarks and decided to try Desserts By Design. This business has been in my bookmarks collecting dust for several years... With regret behind me now, I can say that my juggling "just ok" cakes and cookies is over. This bakery here has the most satisfying baked goods. The woman who I'm guessing is Mrs. Design is a very sweet and welcoming person.. The interior is bright and clean, a great selection, and a menu provided that describes every option for your order. I'm so glad that I finally tried this bakery. No more decisions to make on where to place my orders. read more

Cake was excellent. So fresh and beautifully decorated. I would recommend this business if you are looking for something special.

They don't take Apple Pay. It was very hot inside. Looks old. I left without ordering, didn't like the vibe.

Love this bakery! We ordered the Chocolate Delight which is a dense and moist chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting and we all loved it!! The bakery is in a very nice small town in Audubon. The owner/manager and staff are very nice and helpful. We also ordered a variety of cookies, $14/lb, they're smaller sizes, so delicious that we can't stop eating them, light and crispy melt in your mouth. We also highly recommend their cream cheese bars, blueberry crumb cake. We still have to try their pies and pound cakes. read more

Not a sit in place just an old school bakery. I love it here. Service is excellent and we get all our cakes from here. Oh almost forgot about the pies they have here. They're also amazing. It's always a pleasant experience here and I have loved everything we bought here. It's a great little hometown family owned bakery. I should mention we get cookies here for our little guy and he goes through them faster than any prepackaged store bought nonsense. Always the best! read more

Stumbled upon this place when a different bakery didn't have the cake I wanted. So happy with this accidental discovery! I got a chocolate fudge cake and an assortment of cookies, and both were a hit at the birthday celebration! High quality ingredients. Freshly baked. Friendly staff. Located in cute downtown. This is where I'm getting all my cakes and cookies in the future! read more

Desserts by Design has a wide selection of desserts that are reasonably priced and taste delicious. Cupcakes, muffins, pretzels, different size cakes, mini desserts, etc. The mini desserts are weighed so there isn't exact pricing on them. The owner took the time to explain each cake which I really appreciated because there wasn't a label for the encased display section of the bakery. I really enjoyed the Crème brûlée, and in the mini desserts- the fruit tart, key lime, caramel, and the carrot cake. Definitely worth checking out. If you are looking for sugar-free options, there aren't any so keep that in mind. There is no minimum card purchase requirement but the owner had mention preferably cash for purchases of $10 or less. There is street parking only. 4.5/5 read more

Reasonably priced and delicious cakes here! I was warmly invited into a bakery that smelled like freshly baked sweets. Everything on display looked wonderful. My cake was elegantly decorated with a fall theme. My chocolate strawberry cake tasted light and fresh. It wasn't the kind of cake that makes you feel weighed down after a few bites, so everyone enjoyed it until the last. read more

Every year our office gets a beautiful and huge tray of goodies from DbD. I was thrilled when I saw the delivery man approaching my desk! The butter/sugar cookies are melt-in-your mouth yet slightly crispy. Biscotti are very good, as well as the raspberry center cookies. One of my favorite desserts are chocolate covered pretzels - you know - that sweet and salty 'thing!!!' The chocolate on these pretzels is very good plus the pretzels are fresh. I keep saying I'm going to go here but never have yet. I"m almost afraid to ;) If you want to wow someone, send them a gift tray/basket from this place - they won't be disappointed and you'll get some 'brownie points!!!' Y U M read more

I used Desserts by Design for my micro-wedding cake. Everyone loved it. We got the White Cloud cake, and we also had several trays of mini desserts. Even people who don't like sweets/cake kept talking about how good it all was. I over-ordered, but nearly everything was eaten by the end of the night, since it was so tasty! read more

Love this place. VERY reasonably priced and all the baked goods are excellent. Amazing cupcake selection and at $1.50 a pop they are much more affordable than some places down the street that are $3-4. They have a wide range of desserts - the aforementioned cupcakes (including a fudge brownie cupcake that has a piece of fudge brownie on top!), a huge variety of cookies, dessert breads, cakes and mini cakes/tarts/cheesecakes if you want something small. Support a locally owned and operated place! read more

I have lived in Audubon and the surrounding area for almost a decade. Literally walked and driven by this place 100s of times but never tried. A few weeks ago I decided to check them out. Wanted to get my wife and daughter some cupcakes and I'm glad I stopped here. They have a large variety of ready to buy cupcakes and they're only $1.50 each! I went in expecting to spend $5-$10 per cupcake so I was quite surprised. Do not let the low price fool you.. these cupcakes are awesome. I initially got 4 different kinds and loved them all. We all did. I went there again today to get some more, different, cakes and again.. they're all so good. Will def be making this shop one of my go tos. I wish I would have tried them out sooner! read more

I got a lemon and chocolate cupcake about half hour before closing. They tasted old, dry, and from a box. The customer service was great but I wouldn't go back read more

Lady who works here (sorry didn't get her name) is so so amazing !! She knows how to run a business. She's super sweet, had everything ready earlier than expected, and did an excellent job decorating my boyfriends cake! Will definitely be coming back :) read more

Great neighborhood bakery, very accommodating with a last minute request to write Happy Birthday on a cake they have in their beautiful abundant displays! Don't wait too late in the day to go in and buy your sweets,as they may not have very much left. They are that busy because they are so good! read more

I was across the street at the brewery and saw this adorable bakery. Had a fantastic Chocolate Brownie Cupcake that was suggested by the staff. Highly suggest stopping by if you find yourself nearby. Hope to come back and try more of their desserts! read more

At a birthday party, I got to have one of the delicious chocolate fudge cupcakes from here. I fell in LOVE and now order cakes for all birthdays from here. The chocolate fudge icing is so good - rich and decadent. I love the vanilla too and we always go with the chocolate chip cake. The chocolate fudge brownie is SO filling - I seriously can only eat one at a time. If you've been wondering about what this bakery has to offer, stop in. You will not be dissapointed! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Desserts by Design! For our wedding, we used them for an entire dessert table. We had a white cloud as our ceremonial cake and then got trays and trays of miniature deserts, cookies, and chocolate pretzels. There were barely any leftover at the end of the night and we had many guests ask where they were from. Specifically the cannolis and all of the tarts. The staff was extremely helpful and met all of our requests. This is our new go-to for any special occasion! read more

My favorite bakery - the shop looks just like a French patisserie and the desserts, cookies, cakes and cupcakes are all outstanding with such variety that keeps me coming back for more. Great family operation! read more

I would give them 6 stars if it was possible. Truly the best bakery in the area bar none!!! Let me start by saying that I am not a huge fan of the sweets BUT this place is awesome. I like the Creme Brulee cake with large chocolat hand dipped strawberries on top. I recently purchased a vanilla birthday cake for my mom's 70th birthday and she actually said that it was as good as her mom used to make. They also do these miniatures... sort of one bite mini cakes / tarts that I am requested to bring every time we go to friends houses. from key lime, fruit tarts, eclairs, chocolate mousse, vanilla mousse, pumpkin cheesecake, and on and on. Also the cookies are yummy too!!! You have to go to this place when you are in the area you will not be disappointed! Make sure to say hello to the friendliest most happy person you will ever meet.. Rene!!!! read more
