Y'all be hyping places up. Where to begin? I walked in and nobody was around. I walked around for a good 30 sec to a min and then finally someone showed up to greet me. I decided to go for small just to try it out first vs get a slice and pay $15 which in the end it didn't matter cus it came out to $12 for 2 items I got. The cupcake I got was cookies and cream but it just taste like reg store bought cake. You know the type that it's "chocolate" but there's not much choc flavor to it. The cream cheese frosting was like eating melted grease and added nothing to the rest of the cupcake. I ended up taking a bite and dumping the rest. I got one of their brownies but gave that to my husband so he could eat it at work. So can't really talk on that. read more

I absolutely love Eat Cake! I felt so happy just being in there, and the worker who served me was incredibly friendly and helpful. I tried a few different things, and everything was exceptional. The Strawberry N' Cream slice was light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet without being heavy. The Chocolate Chip cookie was massive and baked to perfection--crispy on the edges and soft in the middle. I also had a slice of flourless cake, which was incredibly rich, fudgy, and decadent. The quality is so high that I've already decided I definitely want my birthday cake from here! 5 stars all the way. read more

We were celebrating my finance's birthday this weekend. We normally do Windfield's Chocolate Bar, but I found Eat Cake online and thought we would give it a try. We ordered the German Chocolate Cake and the Blueberry Cheesecake. The cheesecake was the best of the two items. It was smooth and creamy and had a fantastic taste. There was something there I could not pinpoint, like maybe citrus zest in the filling. It was really fresh. The blueberry compote and fresh berries made it complete and added to the complex flavor. The slice was $12. The item that really missed the mark was the chocolate cake. It was pre-sliced and sitting behind the counter. Perhaps that is what lent to the dry texture of the cake. The German frosting was good and was the only moisture to be found. I believe the slice was $15. I must say, when you walk into the place you see all these tall cakes and are waiting for a great experience. But, when the lady behind the counter simply pulls something already sliced, it lost a lot of appeal. I should have turned around and left. When you go to Winfield's, the whole trip inside is part of the experience. There are so many choices available. You wait in line and watch what others order. The attendants pull the whole cake from the cooler and slice the item right in front of you. They package it up then and there. I know for the chocolate cakes, you can also request toffee bits and caramel topping for no additional charge. The slices are probably 1.5 times larger for about the same price. A totally better experience. read more

I went to pick up a pizza next door, but have a sweet tooth and was excited to pop in and try this place out. It was a very inviting environment, decorated very well, and friendly staff. There were lots of options to try from. I went for the s'mores brownie. They warmed it up for me and it was just ok. Then it was time to try the Oreo cheesecake. Also, underwhelming. The cheesecake was bland, no real flavor to it. With so many options in houston, I'd try another place. read more

Ordered a red velvet cake and the first few bites were stale. Afterwards it got better but there wasn't a taste. Nothing Bundt Cake does a much better job. The price of mile was $3! I can buy an entire gallon for $2.69 from Kroger. The lady behind the counter nice and the place was clean. Given the taste and price, good chance I won't be going back. read more

It was super cool witnessing the end product of these amazing artisan baked goods. We got two slices of the lemon blueberry cake at $11 each. The cake is not the usual Big Mama sweet pound cake. In fact, the cake is barely sweet, the thin lemon filling is where most of the sweetness comes from. Service was excellent and inviting. I was greeted promptly upon arriving and my questions were answered. The decor was very appealing and I was impressed with the amount of baked goods they have. The size of each cake was massive!!! I've never seen cakes that huge but then again, this is Texas. Overall, the visit was very nice and I was semi-pleased with my selection. The price was reasonable but when I want cake, I want some sugar because I rarely eat sweets and my sweet tooth needs that fulfillment lol. read more

What a dessert selection !! The service was great and they had no dine in. It was grab and go but it was perfect space for her goodies to be displayed. Very family friendly but sweet tooth's beware---overload of choices. Everything looked great. Went in to buy 3 and came out with 5. Who would have guessed !!! If you're in the area stop in and grab a slab of cake. (Most are 3 or 4 layers) read more

Stumbled upon this cute cake and dessert shop after dinner in the area, and it was the best discovery of the evening! The server was so nice and gave us recommendations based on our taste, and the shop itself was very cute and homey. Of note there isn't any seating inside, only a table for standing! The seasonal maple cake was absolutely incredible. Rich caramel and maple flavors in the icing and filling layers, with a maple cake. Very sweet, which is what I was looking for, but if you're not into that I would choose another flavor! The blueberry lemon cake was also so good. A bit more tart in the lemon flavors but still a sweet tone overall. A good balance with the maple cake! I also tried the Dulce latte cookie, which included a toasted marshmallow on top of a caramel cookie with toffee chips and dulce caramel filling. So amazing. The slices are HUGE, almost as big as my head! Absolutely love this spot and I'll be back for sure! read more

We came here to pick up a few cakes while waiting for our pizzas from the store next-door. They have a ton of selection. It was really impressive to see any type of flavor you could possibly want was there they had baked cakes to cookies and any other types of sweets you might want. I picked out a carrot cake and a cheesecake. The only thing that I would say that was not very delicious was the cheesecake bread crumb was soggy. We brought the cakes home and ate a few bites, but we didn't finish it even the kids didn't really want it. The lady at the front desk was super helpful and knowledgeable and it was a cute little shop. Not much space for sitting and eating though it's more of a take away place. I'd say try it if you have time, but I'm not sure I would go out of my way to go back again. read more

Eat Cake - Lemon-Blueberry Cake - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've been wanting to go to Eat Cake for a long time. As many of the reviews state, the inside is very small and is move of a grab and go type of deal. The cakes are literally pre sliced and in togo containers which I didn't expect. I ordered a slice of the Lemon Blueberry and thought it was ok. Beautifully decorated and layered, the cake was light but the frosting was almost merengue like in taste which was a turn off for me but I should have asked more questions. The cake also lacked a certain sophistication and the blueberry didn't come through but the lemon did and it wasn't too sweet. Better than the grocery store but not a life changing slice of cake. Nothing to go out of your way for but I can maybe see trying more flavors another time. Kinda curious about the raspberry to be honest. read more

I was looking for a bakery to order my moms birthday cake and decided to stop by for a slice of the blueberry lemon cake and it was AMAZING! So yummy but not too sweet and very well balanced. I ended up going back the next day to order a full cake for my mom's birthday! The service is very quick and friendly too. Definitely stop by to check out this cute spot! read more

To start off with the desserts are so pretty! The full cakes are stunning and the cookies look delicious! The woman at the counter was very nice, we had lots of questions and she answered all of them. The place is small and there's no seating but it's still super cute. The chocolate chip cookie was warm gooey and it practically melted in your mouth. The brownie was fudgey and chocolatey but I wasn't a big fan of the marshmallow, that's just personal preference. I wanted to love the Strawberry Crème cake and the flavor of the cake is really good, the downside is that the slices are like 60% icing 40% cake. The ratios are a bit off and as someone who doesn't particularly like icing it's just overwhelmingly sugary. Beyond that, I'd definitely recommend giving their cookies a try. They also have cheesecakes and macaroons. I'll definitely be back for their cookies! read more

I been looking and searching high and low in these Houston streets!! And perhaps i have found a dessert home!! The place is small and doesn't encourage you to stay and enjoy your desserts. There is a long bar table but again i felt like it was more of a waiting spot. This is grab and go mostly but it's nice and cozy. I highly suggest the Strawberry cake slice!! Hit the spot instantly!! Super moist and flavorful without being overly sweet and feeling horrible after you eat that huge slice... because you will!! The staff member was very nice and helpful. She answered all of our questions and allowed me to take my time while choosing from all of the goodies! Check your order before leaving as I did receive the wrong cheesecake slice, but otherwise this first visit was a success! Happy Yelping! read more

In my annual review of Eat Cake, I think I should start be saying- it may be time for an intervention. For the life of me, I cannot enter the shop without purchasing less than $50 worth of dessert items (peep my initial review for my opinion of the cheesecake and various other offerings) On the other hand, my weight gain is your gain, here's what I recommend from this pocket sweet shop and why: *in terms of methodology, I took a bite of each and every one of these treats on day of purchase as the ultimate taste test* The chocolate chip cookie- man this is still one of the most indulgent treats in the city. It still delivers as an ooey, gooey, buttery, freshly baked tasting masterpiece. Simple, but always worth ordering! The brownie with marshmallow- heating this bad boy up in the convection oven will always be a treat! I add salt to mine, and reluctantly say this treat is shareable. I'm a fudgy brownie girlie, and the crispy exterior paired with a fudgy middle makes this treat win-worthy in my book. Midnight chocolate cake- you know what they say- the blacker the berry...and although this cake has 0 berries, rest assured, from the pillowy texture to the varied chocolate varieties offered, this cake is a fudgy, chocolatey winner! Raspberry almond cake-a nearby sweets dealer makes a mean almond cake. That being said, I guess I've set the bar pretty high! This cake was moist, and had a nice crumb, but the raspberry filling was just not for me! Lemon cloud- it's a simple dessert that'll satisfy your lemon bar craving. Is it one of order again-probably not. They have plenty " must try" items, and from my experience this is one is just a lemon bar. If you're considering visiting for the first time, know that the area stays busy, and as of the time of this review (Oct 2024), there's construction in the area. Irregardless of if you find yourself in traffic on your way over, or facing the anxiety of driving through a construction zone on your way out, if you order the chocolate chip cookie, it'll help ease the discomfort! read more

My pictures do not do the deliciousness of these cakes justice. This is some of the most moist, baked confection perfection I have ever had. Inside there's a large display of various flavored cakes, 3 tiers, naked frosted, so many to choose from. We settled for a slice of lemon blueberry and chocolate. Lemon blueberry was a perfect balance of sweet and tart. There was lemon curd between the cake layers, a layer of blueberry compote. The frosting was so rich and tasted so good. The slice of cake was still moist the next day! The chocolate slice was amazing, I can't stress this enough. The people who make these baked goods are pouring love into it. The lady who boxed up our orders was nice. Their cakes are so good and I love to support local businesses. I will return to try additional flavors. read more

The chocolate cake is so yummy! Great that they sell slices They have other choices. All looks enticing.

People there very nice and cakes look pretty only if you're willing to pay 86 for a very bad cake. None of the 10 people at the party liked it. Most of the layers had no flavor and only the middle part taste like butter with a bad artificial lemon flavor. I bought the lemon raspberry one. Of course no refund when I brought it back as "taste is a preference " and we were left with no dessert for Christmas. For that price it was very disappointing not getting a refund when I brought the entire cake back read more

Hubs and I stopped in after dinner as Eat Cake had been in my bookmarks for a while now, and it was directly in our path after leaving Squable. We were actually on our way to another local dessert shop (our favorite), but decided to give into the moment and stop. The good: The staff was friendly and the chubby cookie (chocolate chip) was chunky, had a nice crunch, and was deliciously buttery. Perfect. The indifferent: The namesake. The cake. This was to be the "true tell" as whether or not Eat Cake earns repeat visits. And unfortunately, it didn't meet the mark with the Almond Raspberry cake that was suggested and we bought. First, the cake & texture: it's giving a denser angel food cake, which the hubs was fine with, but I'm not into it. The almond extract was strong in this one. Would have loved more balance. Icing: Whipped/heavy cream-esque. Meh. Give me a light buttercream or cream cheese icing with raspberry, always. Raspberry filling: too artificial tasting, with a lingering aftertaste. All in all, I'd potentially come back for the cookies as I wasn't hooked with the cake. Cheers! read more

AMAZING CAKES AND COOKIES! We have been searching all over town for cake that was not only moist, but carried both classic and unique flavors. This place is it!!! The chubby chocolate chip cookie is also worth mentioning! Highly recommend: - chubby chocolate chip cookie - chocolate cake - blueberry lemon cake - strawberry & cream cake - summer paradise cake [passion fruit] - giant wonderland chocolate cake We also were able to quickly order a whole cake for a birthday dinner that night that they were able to provide immediately. They also decorated it, which we didn't expect. It was a huge hit with all the girls! Will be returning soon to try other flavors! read more

The cakes are huge and I couldn't decide so I got 4 pieces. The carrot cake was nothing special. We were hoping for more nuts in it. The raspberry almond cake was excellent. I saw some negative reviews about this cake on here but I found the flavors of the cake and raspberry filling to be excellent read more

I was looking for something sweet and decided to try this place. The service was just ok. I decided to try the almond raspberry since I love almond sweets. It was also just ok. Not dry but not exactly moist, the buttercream heavy on the buttercream and not much in terms of flavor. There's more than just cake served here but there's other places in the area that I'd rather continue to frequent. Given the prices, I probably wouldn't be back again but I'm glad I finally tried it. read more

We stopped by on Valentine's Day after watching an event close by. Picked out a few slices of different cakes: special valentine's day cake, some kind of german chocolate, strawberry and cream, and tiramisu. They were all moist, lots of flavor and smelled nice. The icing/butter cream? was a little too sweet and wasn't spread evenly. It was a bit on the pricey side. The inside was cute and nice. The lady at the counter was patient with us and nice. read more

This place is setup beautifully! How can you NOT want to try one of everything....I tried 3! LOL Each piece of cake ranges from $11-13 Baked cookies are $6 Slice of Cheesecake I believe was $11 I tired the: Strawberries & Cream - big pieces, great strawberry flavor, fluffy frosting, dense cake not fluffy, kind of heavy but good flavor Lemon blueberry cake - Same as the strawberry mousse like fluffy whipped light frosting with lemon flavor, blueberry chunks very good flavor, I would prefer the cake be light a fluffy but all in all good flavor. Chocolate mousse - Oreo cookie pieces, caramel, milk chocolate mousse, and dark chocolate cake. The dark chocolate is very dominant in this dish so if your not into dark chocolate don't get it. Try this place out of you have a sweet tooth. It'll take care of it. read more

Not my favorite place in town to get dessert. :( Stopped in because we were in the area, and they basically have a refrigerated case of cake for you to choose from. I asked the employee what her favorite cake is since it was our first time and she shrugged and said umm they're all OK. LOL. Anyways, we ended up getting the cheesecake which cost a whopping $12!!!!!! For one slice. At that price, I expect something special but it kinda tasted like a grocery store cheesecake. I hate to be harsh, and maybe if it wasn't $12, I would be a little happier but unfortunately the price and quality don't match up. read more

Eat Cake - Best cookies I've ever had - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

I wanted a pick me up after a long week of work so I decided to stop by Eat Cake for some goodies! I didn't realize it was bakery until it popped up in my search. The selection is pretty wide-from cupcakes, cookies, brownies, cheesecakes, and cakes, I had a hard time deciding what to get! I decided on the chocolate mousse cake, strawberries and cream cake and the chocolate PB cookie. Each item hit the spot!!! It really just depends on what you're craving. The chocolate PB cookie was so gooey and soft on the inside. Perfect for PB choc lovers. The chocolate mousse cake was rich in chocolate flavor and not too heavy from the mousse. The strawberries and cream cake slice was great for a fruit forward sweet. I can't wait to come back to try their other items! Ju was so nice and helpful when I came into the store. Cute shop and easy for grab and go! read more

I had high expectations for this place because of the reviews. I am a dessert snob. I love high quality sweet treats. This wasn't it! lol. Inside is cute, there is a nice display of cakes and cookies. I love Red Velvet & there were three options for Red Velvet treats, a cookie, a cupcake, and a slice of cake. I almost went with the cupcake but because of how high my expectations were I decided on the cake. Normally Red Velvet cake is made with cream cheese frosting but I got a slice for a different place and it was just vanilla icing. I don't like that so I asked the woman at the register if it was made with cream cheese. Her answer, "I don't know." Ma'am, you work here? You should know this. That is where the first star was lost. I finally try the cake and it is sad. It is thick dry, and crumbly, and the cream cheese icing is just as thick and just doesn't taste very good. Also, there is some sort of fruit filling in the middle of the cake. This is not standard for red velvet cake, so they should have that listed clearly. I hate fruit filling. I am not going to eat this cake. I can usually still finish even mediocre dessert but this is headed to the trash. I expected a lot more from a $9 slice of cake. I would have been better off with a slice from H-E-B. I've officially given up on finding good cake in Houston. read more
