Entry

You know a bakery has been around for a very long time when you see a sticker that announces "MAC accepted for purchases". MAC is a uniquely Philadelphia phenomenon from the earliest days of ATMs. My aunts still say today that they're going to "hit the MAC" instead of "get money from the ATM. Despite spending a decent amount of my life living in the Philly Burbs, I hadn't heard of Jacquette's until a friend mentioned them to me. I was talking about getting some really good hometown donuts, not the kind from a national chain, the kind that are yeasty and sweet and the place smells like heaven. Off I head on a steamy hot Sunday morning. It's a good sign when there's a line, folks. I managed to time my visit well as there were only 3 people ahead of me, by the time I left there were 8 people in line waiting. Despite the line I didn't wait long before a cheery young man, eyes smiling behind his mask, helped me with my selection. Six donuts (one didn't last long enough for the photo to be taken. I am human after all). I wasn't planning on the sticky buns but they looked so darn good I got three of them too. They were all quite good. The donuts had that yeasty sweetness I adore, and those sticky buns were loaded with cinnamon and gooey walnuts. Solid Philly donuts. I'll totally be back.

This is a bakery in a strip mall with plenty of parking in the lot. They have everything from cakes to donuts to many cookie options. There are so few bakeries left anymore. This is what a bakery should be like.

Purchased a lemon pound cake with lemon buttercream icing for a July 4th birthday celebration. Everyone raved about the cake and wanted the name of the bakery. Highly recommend this establishment.

7/2/20 sigh! Only 364 more days to go til I get another Jacquette's Birthday cake  If my friend gifts me a cake.

7/2/20 My friend goes to Jacquette's bakery for special occasion cakes for her family & friends. That's me she's gifted me two Birthday cakes in the past. Both times she opted to get me chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Very Delicious! I would love to try vanilla cake sometime and I hope to try their other offerings. Seeing as I'm not very close- it's probably not going to happen. My most recent cake was moist and delicious. The frosting was decadent and delicious. I love the sweet buttercream icings the best and this cake did not disappoint. There's nothing like a real bakery cake and since I went to a bakery yelp event a couple years back, at Aux Petit Delices, I have a new found appreciation for real bakeries and the art of it all.

Supposed to be a two tier cake for a bridal shower... paid $75 dollars for this?!! The writing is poor at best

I would give a ZERO stars if I could!! I ordered a two tier wedding shower cake over a week before the shower. I discussed what I wanted with 2 people. I should have gotten the receipt with instructions on it but I was too trusting. $75 dollars

Birthday donuts!

Karolyn's Kakes - The most stunning, sexy cake ever!! Exactly what I envisioned! Choc chip buttercream! Sooooo good!!!

Karolyn's Kakes

I've seen Karolyn's creations at many, many children's parties I have attended over the years. She…read moredoes an amazing job following through with a themed cake! I mean, these are incredible works of art! She's so talented! Most recently I attended a bridal shower and I was taken a back by the detail in this lovely three tier, three flavor cake that matched the bride's wedding colors perfectly. The delicate nature of the ombré layers of chiffon ruffles on the bottom tier were absolutely incredible! The all sugar monogram at the top was flawless and the polka dots were perfect, and had edible bold, shimmery glitter! It was an outstanding cake! Most of these fancy decorated cakes I have come to find only look good and lack greatly when it comes to taste. This is not the case with Karolyn's masterpieces. Everyone "oohed" and "ahhed" while they tasted each of the different layers in one cake...chocolate cake with chocolate icing, raspberry vanilla pound, and chocolate chip with buttercream. I tasted the icing on the raspberry slice at it was soooo delish!! Like omg delish. This mama who has had such bad experiences with birthday cakes over years that she swore off these types of places is considering using Karolyn's because of everyone's reaction and how gorgeous this last cake was! I would highly recommend her for your special occasion. Definitely not inexpensive, but a lot of work goes into making one of these beauties and it's sure to be a show stopper and a centerpiece for your party!

This is not my first order with Karolyn and it will not be my last, Karolyn is so patient and…read morebeyond accommodating. Very easy to work with, open minded and open to design ideas you may have for your kake. This kake was made for a going away party to Japan. Let me say, the flavor of the kake was phenomenal. Get the raspberry filling.. to die for!!!

such a cute little asian inspired bakery! the overall vibe of this place is cozy and light/airy…read more They offer desserts ranging from mille crepes to mouse/mochi. Everything has a subtle sweetness (which I enjoy and prefer) and you can tell it's all made fresh. I got the mango mochi last time which made me come back today! But, unfortunately .. they didn't have because the mango is out of season and hard to find sweet ones. It's not your typical American mango you find in the grocery store. If you know, you know!!! Everything is made fresh and with love. I enjoyed every dessert/drink I got here! The service is also really up to par. Friendly staff and answered any questions you might have :)

Asian-style bakery w/ confections that are way less sweet than American, or even, European…read moredesserts. I was seeking a cake not frosted with Buttercream, or not frosted at all, so I thought I'd give this a try. I really wanted the Taro Cake but whimped out when considering the taste of who I'd be sharing it with, but did get to try it. It taste, both in profile & texture, like a sweet potato. Purchased a Vanilla Strawberry Fresh Cream Cake. It was light in texture, not terribly different from Angel Food Cake, but absent of other flavors. Less sweet cakes often have overtones of almond or citrus that shine through, but this tasted like a vanilla cake minus the sugar. When I sliced into it I was hoping for more of a strawberry puree inside, but it appeared to be just sliced strawberries & a whole lot of unsweetened whipped cream. A little 1 dimensional for me. It was packaged beautifully w/ a lady finger & birthday candle. The gentleman working the counter was super helpful & I look forward to trying the Matcha & other flavors in the future. This one was a miss for me. While I barely have a sweet tooth, I need a little more going on than what was presented. That's a preference, not a criticism.
