    I placed a special order with Simply Delish for my mother's 82nd birthday, and it exceeded every…read moreexpectation. Three different family members independently said it was the best cake they've ever had. We ordered a white cake with custard filling and their specialty frosting. The cake was incredibly moist, and what we loved most was that it wasn't overly sweet, perfectly balanced and truly delicious. Simply Delish absolutely nailed it. Vonnie, the owner, was wonderful to work with, so kind, responsive, and easy throughout the entire process. You can really tell this is handcrafted with care and pride. Sorry I didn't get a better picture, but the cake was beautiful and decorated with fresh fall-colored flowers, exactly as I had requested. Can't wait to order again!

    Updating my review because I went to visit Vonnie to pick up her sweet treats and be STILL my heart…read moreher chocolate covered strawberries are absolutely mouth watering!!! It was hard to just grab those are NOT a cupcake but you know, we had to do what we had to do!!! After all this is the best bakery in town! Vonnie is always working and such an amazing baker because not only does she do her own DELICIOUS creations but she does these intricate decedent wedding cakes and I'm just in awe at her artistry skills and the fact she basically runs this bakery! She is so very talented and you won't find better than her, she's amazing and the SWEETEST! The Ambiance since we usually pick up is very nice and air conditioned and smells AMAZING. If I could make the smell of those place into a perfume? I mosey certainly would!!! Everything she makes is to absolutely perfection!!! Thank you Vonnie! My mom and I love you, keep being the best in town!

    Yes indeed Columbia Kates Bakery has been around for a few years and whenever I would come out here…read moremy and my cousins make it a NECESSITY to get her amazing cinnamon rolls. They are by far not only the best in Columbia, but the whole area! They probably even beat Cinnabon they're so good! The workers here are absolute sweethearts!! And it's perfect timing that they open so early so I can get a nice sweet treat with my coffee in the morning!! These are fabulous!!! She also has a Columbia Cates Tea House which I actually have yet to eat there but it's also adorable and that one opens at 11 am I believe so I'll have to come a little later to try that one too and get the full experience!! The Ambiance is adorable!!! It's all white with cute lacey accents! The girly vibes get me EVERY TIME! It's like stepping into a Disney princess bakery, and the tea house is that way too! Love love love these places and so many delicious options here!!

    I love this place but when I had the cinnamon roll it was disappointing. It was early afternoon…read moreand a lot of baked goods were sold out. You have to come super early if you want to get what you like. The roll was a bit dry and cakey.. The service was exceptional. Not only did the employee add extra frosting but he also heated it! Now that's service! It's a small bakery yet popular. I'll have to come back another time.

    I ordered a custom heart shaped cake and was very clear about what I wanted: whipped cream frosting…read moreon the outside and chocolate ganache filling with caramel and pecans on the inside. I even told them I don't like buttercream because it's too sweet and that I didn't want it anywhere on this cake. When I placed the order, they asked if they could add a little buttercream to the outside for texture. I said okay, but only a tiny bit mixed with the whipped cream. What showed up was all buttercream on the outside with zero whipped cream. When I asked about it, they told me it was whipped cream. I know what I'm tasting, and so did my guests. It was definitely buttercream. The inside was even worse. There was some ganache but barely any. The further we cut into the cake, the more buttercream we found. I did not want buttercream inside the cake at all. I barely agreed to a little on the outside and they didn't even respect that. The photos show it clearly. The further we cut, the messier and more uneven it got with just buttercream and buttercream. One slice had a thin layer of ganache with barely any pecans or caramel. Everything else was buttercream. I picked this bakery because I had a good experience with them the first time. The design looked nice, but the cake itself was really disappointing. Way too sweet from all that buttercream I specifically said I didn't want. I gave them detailed feedback with photos. Instead of owning up to it, the decorator got defensive. He said he used buttercream as glue to hold the cake together. But that doesn't make sense. If ganache worked fine as glue on my first order with them (which had no buttercream inside at all), why couldn't he do the same thing this time? He just chose to use a lot of buttercream instead of actually following what I asked for. I even sent more photos pointing out exactly where the problem was. But they still insisted it was whipped cream. My guests noticed it too. So are they lying? Management offered me a 10% discount on my next order. That doesn't help. I paid for a cake that didn't meet what I asked for and it ruined my event. I asked for a 50% refund which seemed fair. They read the message but never answered. Just complete silence. If a bakery is going to charge premium prices for custom cakes, you need to actually follow what the customer asks for. I was crystal clear about what I wanted. That's literally the whole point of a custom order. They like to ignore customers when there's an issue. I was ignored at first, then only responded after I pointed out how unprofessional they were handling things. That's when they offered the 10% discount. But the moment I asked for a fair 50% refund, they ghosted me completely. No response, nothing. That says everything you need to know about how they treat customers who have legitimate concerns.
