Recently ordered a cake for my 4 year old daughters birthday. We wanted a Repunzel themed cake and didn't see anything in their catalog. I found a design on Pinterest and found a cake topper online to use. After talking with the designer about the main things I wanted I. The cake and giving her free reign in with the rest, I felt comfortable with the way it would turn out. And I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED!! It was Perfect and delicious to boot. Would definitely recommend for any of your cake needs. Will use again for another birthday or event. read more

Well where do I begin.... our wedding was 1-4-19. I wish I had a pic of the cake from that day handy. It was absolutely beautiful!!!! We did our all time favorite almond flavor. We loved the strawberry with a cream cheese icing just as much so we decided to do our topper different. We followed the directions on how to freeze, tossed in deep freeze and totally forgot about it. Fast forward 1 year and almost 9 months later. Deep freeze was going out and look what we found!!!! Our cake topper. I defrosted this baby and was sure it would be old, dried out and frost bit. To our surprise it was AMAZING!!! Light, fluffy, moist and tasted just like on our wedding day. My point of the review is this company turns out delicious quality cakes. We will forever be loyal customers and if your looking for a cake to make an occasion special.... this is your place! Highly recommend!!!! read more

I have been looking forward to wedding cake tasting appointments ever since I got engaged. And when I scheduled this first appointment last month I had hoped it would be fun and delicious but it ended being a total flop and would have been better spent sleeping in and saving my $15. We walked in and were not greeted with a smile or much of anything as we entered. The assistant kept her head down. I thought it was strange but whatever. So then she says we can sit down so we do and we look around at the old dusty faded cakes displays and wait. Then this lady comes out with pieces of cake in a plate smothered in too much icing and begins to start talking in lightening speed. And I have to interrupt her and ask , Who are you? What's your name? I had hoped for an introduction and a greeting like,"Welcome Minda and Jeff. My name is Abby. " That would have been nice with a smile- but instead she looks at me shocked and and says my name is Abby and I already met you when you made the appt. I then ask but who are you ? the manager? The decorator? She doesn't even ask what my fiancé's name is continues to vomit our her presentation about cake flavors and then walks away for us to taste them. I had no idea what she had said. I was so mad because she basically didn't have time to be bothered with us and headed to the back to do whatever. And to me if that's how she's going to try and engage with new customers and try and sell her mediocre cakes for $5 a slice with a $200 delivery fee to a location 40 min away- she is mistaken!!! She didn't waste any time however charging us $15 for that tasting and it was not worth it at all, Please folks save your money! What a rip off. One of the most important days of a couple's life and they want to sell you on $650-$1000 Worth of cake without asking your name or a smile!!???? Presentation is everything ladies and the way to grow your business and gain clients is through eye contact, smiling, taking time to sit with customers and get to know them and treat them like human beings. Not throw cake at them, rush through the flavors and walk away!! Abby you may have a charming personality but we didn't get to meet that person today. We met a robot. Very disappointed Heading to another cake appointment now..... read more

Lakeview Bakery - Wished she had titled the cakes too but she seemed in a hurry. Rushed cake tasting and mediocre. - Bakeries Near Me

My brother and sister in law ordered a cake from this bakery for their wedding. They ordered from the bakery's catalog. Didn't go to Pinterest and bring it in... it was the bakery's own design. Cake comes to the reception and it is missing details they paid extra for. My SIL calls to be reimbursed for this detail... This bakery hides behind fine print that states they reserve the right to make slight variations. No. Not when you pay for these details. And it is from your own catalog! You as a business owner should do the right thing and comp them for the detail they paid for and that was NOT delivered. Unacceptable. You could have contacted my SIL and given her other options. Instead? You were lazy, threw a flower on the side haphazardly and delivered a cake she didn't approve and you agreed to bake and she paid extra for more detail. Like I said before, you should do the right thing! read more

I have been by the bakery probably hundreds of times over the years but never had a need to order a cake for anything. I dropped in last week to order a cake for my dad's 85th birthday and another cake for a lady having her 80th birthday. I gave them free reign with the decor, and they did not disappoint! Both cakes were beyond my expectations, and if ever, I have another need, they will absolutely be the one to make my cakes! read more

I ordered a 2 tiered round cake on short notice and completely satisfied with the service. The person I initially talked to on the phone was very friendly and extremely helpful and the cake was delicious. Vanilla icing on white almond cake and raspberry center. Yum! read more

Lakeside Bakery made our wedding cake and everything came out perfect! Going in, we had no idea of how we wanted our cake, but after looking at some of their past cake designs, we were sold on the half bride/half groom cake (pls see picture). On our wedding day, they delivered on time with no issues and our cake looked and tasted absolutely amazing! Thank you! read more

I used this bakery as my venue recommended them. I should have known after our impersonal tasting that it wouldn't be a 100% positive experience. We picked out a cake from their album for what we wanted our wedding cake to look like. We actually paid extra for them to put the extra Decorations including burlap, a burlap flower, and a sugar flower on the cake. The design was drawn and shown to us which is included in our contract. We also ordered a grooms cake and picked out a design for that. Then on my wedding day, July 21, 2018, the wedding cake was delivered and set up by Lakeview bakery. I did not see my cake until the reception when I noticed it did not look quite right. Not only was there no burlap flower on my cake, but the sugar flower was just stuck on the bottom tier on the side of the cake. It looked nothing like the decoration I had asked for and was drawn in my contract. I then contacted the bakery and let them know about my dissatisfaction in the way the cake came out which was not how we had discussed. The response I was given was that they did complete the cake per the contract and that it states that they are allowed to do "slight variations". I paid to have extra decorations on the cake to me these are not something that should be omitted and that is not a slight variation. If they did not have the materials to complete the cake as drawn in the contract, I stated that I should have been contacted beforehand so I could have had the option to find my own decor. They have no intention of trying to remedy this issue and have pretty much blown me off. This was my wedding cake and should have been completed as discussed. I have included pictures of what I asked for, the drawing they completed in my contract, and what the actual cake look like. Extremely disappointed is an understatement, buyer beware! read more

I'd highly recommend Lakeview Bakery for any event requiring any type of design cake. Best kept secret-ever. We had our wedding cake and it was wonderful, deco was very beautiful, and taste was delish! We couldn't have asked for better so stop by and treat yourself to a ready cake or get one of their specialty cakes for your next event! You won't regret it! Worth every penny. read more

I ordered a set of 12 safari themed cupcakes for my son's birthday. I wanted them made out of fondant and I wanted four different animals to be represented (lion, giraffe, elephant and monkey). They did not disappoint me! The fondant animals look amazing! The tiny details in the cheeks of the lion and the elephant's trunk really make the animals look great! Also, I'm a terrible client. I didn't even pick up on time, yet the owner of the bakery was willing to meet with me three hours after the bakery had closed so that I would have my cupcakes on time. Customer service is so important and that was going above and beyond what I expected. read more

Orders always come out looking amazing, with great flavors! i have been happy with all the orders that I have made here and will definitely continue to recommend and placw orders with them. 100% satisfied read more

At first we tried Lakeview for our wedding cake 4 years ago, then a year later for our son being born, a year later for our anniversary, and again today for my birthday cake that my husband ordered for me. Abby has never disappointed and everything has always been flawless. In total we've had 5 cakes and they are not only extremely talented but very friendly. Even with complicated algorithms on our cakes in the past (husband is a physicist), they never bat an eye and always deliver exactly what we want! The cakes are pricey but you definitely get your money's worth. The almond cake is what we've always gotten from the start. It's absolutely mind blowing. We will continue to return for special occasions. read more

I had an odd request for a cake celebrating the US Navy Birthday for a bunch of veterans. I wanted the US Navy symbol along with our groups symbol on top of the cake with the "Go Navy Beat Army" logo under the cake. The day before I was to pick the cake up I was told they couldn't put the symbols on top of the cake due to copyright issues. I was disappointed because I was notified at the last minute and really had no options. They told me they would do the best they could. When I picked up the cake I was extremely impressed. Instead of applying an image on he cake, they hand created the exact symbols I wanted AND they were able to put the logo under the cake. Everyone at the party loved the cake and its hidden surprise. I'll be honest, after my call the day before I was expecting to be disappointed, but to my surprise Lakeview Bakery did an outstanding job. read more

I needed a Dallas Cowboy cake within 1 day for my son's birthday. Everywhere I went, other bakery said they couldn't do it and that I waited to late. Lakeview Bakery got it done and it was AWESOME! They made my son's birthday with this cake and he loved it! Thank you guys so much for pleasing me with my needs and being a great customer service business! A+ highly Recommend them! read more

This is only for wedding cakes so I can't comment on the bakery portion. I was disappointed in this bakery. I guess it pays to go to a place that specializes in wedding cakes. All of the other wedding cake tastings I have done at places that specialize in wedding cakes actually helped me with the design. I felt after the tasting Lakeview should have paid me because I wanted a simple tiered cake and at first they said I should go with a smaller cake. When I saw one of their cake displays with the size and layers and asked this is exactly what I wanted they changed the design. I don't know if the employee was not experienced or if they didn't care, but I felt like I knew more about the wedding cake designing then she did. On top of that the cake tasting was $15 for what?!? I guess what you hear that if someone charges for wedding cake testing probably not the best place to go for your wedding cake! The actual cake was ok...I definitely had better wedding cakes so if you might be looking for birthday cake then maybe, but I think the prices are ridiculous here with it almost coming out to be over $5 per serving. I would recommend The Cake Guys in Duncanville or Delicious Cakes in Addison for wedding cakes...their cakes taste amazing and you actually feel like they are the experts not other way around! read more

Called to see about a simple cake for my mom 80th bday. Only need one to feed 25 people. We were not sure if she would even be here for this special day because of her brain tumor so didn't have a lot of time to prepare. Yep, I only had 2-1/2 days notice from the dr. I called this bakery but they didn't even ask for any details ..... Just said they are booked. Sorry to hear that!! read more

Apparently this bakery recently sold in 2014. I attended a wedding this weekend that they had done the cake for and it was horrible and embarassing. The bride didnt even put it out, they went to whole foods and bought cupcakes to serve. The icing was cracked and even the piping icing was pulling away from the cake. They had it on a piece of board covered in tacky gold foil which could have been easily covered up with icing. Then they had this gold leaf border made of fondant that was falling off the cake. The bride had a pic of what the cake was to look like and it looked nothing like what she ordered and what was suppose to be silver, they made gold. I have photos if anyone would like to see read more

Awesome Minnie cake for our 3 year old! So impressed!

This bakery baked the wedding cake for my daughter's wedding and it was really delicious. We chose Red Velvet with Cream Cheese Icing and they were able to do the color and style of the cake just like the bride wanted. They were also very accomodating in setting up a tasting appointment and offering us several different flavors to taste. All in all they were very professional and competent and the cake was great. read more
