Walk-in cake decorated on the spot in 5minutes.
Ernest W.

Great service, great price, great cake! So i was a last second walk-in this past weekend. Donna (i believe it was her i interacted with) was very friendly and gave off genuinely kind vibes, despite being quite busy. She showed me the options they had for walk-ins and truth-be-told, i was not impressed by the look of it in the moment. But they offered to add some small customizations plus the birthday message (which came at no additional cost), and the picture you see is what they produced. Simply amazing! The cake tasted great, too, and as an icing conoisseur i have to say the buttercream along with the chocolate drip was superb. They have a repeat customer in me for sure, and hopefully this review helps their business grow all the more.

A year after writing my initial review and I'm happy to report that we continue to receive consistent service. The staff is always very responsive and excited about creative ideas! 10/10

This is my daughter Devyn's cake from her birthday party yesterday! Amazing!

I have been buying cakes from Donna's Cakes for years now. We don't do a birthday without one. Not only are the cakes absolutely delicious, they are gorgeous too! I always get so many compliments on a Donna's Cakes creation! And the staff is wonderful! Twice I was running late and they waited for me to get there and pick up the cake even though they were technically closed. I can't say enough great things about Donna's Cakes! Highly recommend!

With zero hyperbole, this is the best cake I have ever had in my entire life! We ordered vanilla…read morecake (soaked in rose water and cardamom) with pistachio mascarpone and passion fruit curd for our wedding anniversary. It was infinitely better than our actual wedding cake. It was so good I'm already planning our next cake order. Low sugar. Max taste. Stayed delicious for days. Great for major celebrations or Tuesday morning breakfast. I cannot say enough good things about the cake quality and the lovely woman who runs this company. I will never order cake from anywhere else!

Truly Magical! Worth Every Penny! As a first-time customer…read moreof Not Just Cake, I initially questioned whether the endless stream of flawless 5-star reviews could truly be justified. I had never tasted one of Simren's cakes before, nor did I know anyone personally who had ordered from her, so the decision felt like serious leap of faith. The price point also gave me pause, especially since it is easily twice that of established local bakeries like Konditor Meister, Yum Bunnies, Donnas, Flour, or Icing on the Cake, etc. However, after speaking with Simren, it became immediately evident that her work exists on an entirely different level. Her passion, artistry, and meticulous attention to detail are truly extraordinary. I ordered a Harry Potter themed cake for my child's 8th birthday, and I was absolutely astonished. The cake was nothing short of a masterpiece. The golden snitch, Harry's glasses, the sorting hat, and an unbelievable edible fondant book with the number 8 on top looked cinematic in their precision. The photographs do not even begin to capture how breathtaking it was in person. And then there was the taste. We chose vanilla cake, triple berry mascarpone, raspberry preserve infused with saffron, cardamon, and rose... it was unquestionably the finest cake we have ever tasted. Made with the cleanest, freshest, highest-quality ingredients and just the right touch of sweetness, it felt both indulgent and perfectly balanced. Every guest devoured it and wanted to know where it came from. After 40 years of trying bakeries throughout Massachusetts, I can say with complete confidence that this is in a league of its own. Simren is not simply a baker. She is a true artist. Not Just Cake transformed our celebration into something unforgettable. It is an absolute must-buy!

It's HUGE, hearty, and TOO GOOD! I crave it all the time! Summer drinks to try: Cucumber Mint Sparkler -- crisp, refreshing & perfect for a hot day Iced Lychee Milk -- creamy, sweet & bursting with lychee flavor Between the made-fresh-daily mochi, giant Fan Tuan and creative new drinks, Crystal's Bakery is definitely going on my food and dessert favorites list

Fresh mochi with matcha cream and taro paste, rolled in butter crunch flakes. The order took more than a few minutes to get ready, and it's a little hard to know if your order is ready because there is no visual indicator (a screen displaying order numbers would be so helpful). The staff also wasn't the most careful with the way they were using gloves, they touched their face, the register etc etc. Plus the place is small without any seating so it can get crowded and you don't even know how much time for your order to be ready. But omg the mochi was spectacular. Soft chewy tasty not too sweet. Absolutely smacked it out of the park. A lot of points to improve upon but 5 star mochi.

Although it was my son's birthday, I had had mainly flown in to watch him play football that Saturday. I realized I could not take a cake with me to the game because I was going directly to the post-game venue afterward (and had no vehicle). I needed to find someone who could whip up a delicious cake AND deliver it. Oh boy. It was already after 5pm that Thursday when I got to my hotel. What to do? I got on Yelp and went through reviews. All the local bakeries were listed, but The Spunky Baker stood out because of its name and because delivery was available. Maybe my day was saved?!! Sara made a 3-layered chocolate cake in the shape of a football with raspberry cream/raspberry compote filling between each layer and iced it with a delicious light cream frosting. Everyone loved it, the players, the parents... and Sara also made a couple dozen matching cupcakes. The leftovers were really appreciated by some lucky students later that night.

Our 2-tier cake was very simple (vanilla buttercream with chocolate cake, no decorations) I have found the simpler the cake the harder it is to execute perfectly, and Carlene's work was perfect!

She is charming, delightful to talk to, and incredibly helpful and informative when it comes to planning special orders in advance. I have ordered a variety of pies from her - the bourbon pecan and strawberry rhubarb are my personal favorites. My family, who are very critical eaters, loves her pies so much that they ask me to pick up her pies for special occasions. Most recently, I tried the blueberry muffins, and they were perfection: soft and fluffy on the inside with a wonderful sugary crunch on the outside. It is such a joy to have a high-quality bakery like this in the neighborhood. I'm already looking forward to ordering a cake next, as she has so many enticing flavors available. It's wonderful to find a place where the talent in the kitchen is matched by the kindness behind the counter. We're lucky to have her in the neighborhood.
