As soon as I walked into the store, I knew had made a goood choice ordering from there. It smelled soooo good! The cake was beautiful and tastes amazing. I love that they have so many cool flavors to choose from and that it's a family owned local place! Definitely recommend for your next event.

Lisa's cakes are made fresh. They are so moist and delicious. I'm from Washington, so It's my go to whenever I come to visit my daughter in Arizona and need a cake. Plus Lisa and her daughters are so helpful and genuinely so sweet!

I wanna start this by saying, these cakes are delicious. I have ordered from here SEVERAL times. I ordered a cake for my sons's birthday. I originally wanted a cake that resembled a soccer field.. Although I am no cake decorator, I thought it was a fairly simple request, as a soccer field as just a couple boxes and a circle in the middle, and I just wanted it green. I was told it would be "too expensive" and I should "buy and edible template from Albertsons to put on top." I was VERY off put by this. I was told it would be "too expensive" but they never told me a price. And I thought the idea of an edible template was extremely tacky. I opted for Happy Birthday in the middle, but hoped the frosting would still be green. I was planning on buying plastic soccer players and goals to be put on afterward. Notes were took on my cake, but I felt extremely rushed and wanted to make sure details were correct, so I emailed the business the next day. (Email attached) I was called a few hours later by Lisa herself who said "yes I remember you, remember I said to buy the edible template for the top" I explained that I did not like that idea, and I just wanted it to be green with the happy birthday in the middle and I would add my little things at the end. Attached is the cake I picked up. I was extremely disappointed, and when I called I was told that in order for it to be green I would have had to pay extra. I clarified "it would have cost extra to add a couple drops of food coloring to the frosting?" "Yes" I wish it would have been make crystal clear over the phone that I was getting a white cake. I wanted a soccer field. I thought I made that clear on the phone and the email. The cake was served 2 days later, and it was delicious. But I am not sure the next time I'll be back. I would recommend getting the cakes without any special requests. It seems to be too much trouble for them. But these cakes are delicious.

Custom specialty cake for the carnival event by Lisa Rum Cakes and staff! Beautiful

Lisa's rum cake and the entire stuff are out of this world. Amazing! I called upon Lisa 's for a specialty event. I was throwing for a commercial company whereby I was putting on a carnival for 100 employees for employee appreciation event. Lisa provided all the specialty cakes for the cakewalk absolutely amazing. The cakewalk was a huge hit at the event! I can't think Lisa and her staff enough! The cakes were gorgeous, the event was a huge success! Thank you so very much Lisa, Madison and Megan for all the hard work and beautiful outcome! We look forward to the next event!

Amazing service when arrived to pick up cake. I Got some sample cakes and OMG the peach amaretto! Limoncello was so tasty. Bday Cake was very moist. Very impressed with the decoration and Loved the icing! Highly recommend.

Was looking for something a little different for my wife's 50th birthday party. I took a risk and ordered a cake online from Lisa's Rum Cake. I had never tasted her products but they sounded excellent. My wife is a big peanut butter cup fan, so I ordered the Peanut Butter and Chocolate cake. That cake was so freeeak'n goood!!! The cake was the talk of the party with everyone raving how great is was. My wife still claims it is the best cake she ever had. Excellent service and a fantastic product. We will be back for sure.

This is my first time ordering a cake from this place and we absolutely loved it! We ordered a 10" round cake for a baby shower that had 28 people. We had enough slices for everyone to have a piece but we should have ordered more! It was so good! We got the lemon flavored rum cake and it was so light and delicious and perfectly moist. The design and colors we picked went perfectly with the theme. I would definitely order from them again.

While I do not review for yelp anymore this cake and the service was so exceptional that I must review it. My spouse and I decided to get married and I only gave Lisa 1 weeks notice that I would need a two tier wedding cake. Instead of saying no, as most places will on such short notice, they said yes and we sat down with a book of gorgeous cakes that they have made for others. After going through page after page of pictures we finally settled on a pretty white cake with some touches of purple on it. It wasn't hard to select the type of cake, as Lisa is the daughter of Cathy, the inventor of the original Cathy's Rum Cake. Ours also included a layer of fresh strawberries in it. Having purchased a number of cakes from Cathy's, we were sure that this would be a wonderful cake and we were not disappointed. Lisa's even arranged to have the cake delivered at the appointed time, and once again there was no disappointment. Before leaving we took home a number of "cuts" which are pieces of different cakes. One of them didn't even make it home it was so good. Everyone at the wedding raved about the cake, and even though it was a small wedding, almost no cake was left, and leftovers were gone in a day. If you need a terrific cake, even something not a wedding cake, I suggest you run - not walk, to Lisa's. You will never be disappointed.

The best bakery in the Valley! This is our go-to place for special cakes. We've ordered their cakes for birthdays, Valentines, a baby shower and my husband's upcoming promotion ceremony! Everyone always raves about how moist and delicious they are. Our personal favorites are Rumfetti, Rum Velvet and Circo! This is a small, family run business and they are always so nice! We love supporting local and will use them for all our cake needs!

Ordered the Strawberry Cannoli Cake for my Mother's 70th Birthday. It was amazing! Best cake I've ever had! Customer service was great! Can't wait to order my next cake!

Ashley G.

We absolutely love coming to Lisa's Rum Cake! Our wedding cake turned out amazing and it was absolutely delicious. I'm so happy with how it turned out and all our guests loved it. In addition to our wedding, we love stopping by for cuts on Saturdays or whenever we have the day off. It's always delicious. You have to try the Strawberry Rum.

Alexis F.

wonderful little shop, will return. would love to stop by and pick up some of their cuts sometime. i'll definitely be watching the menu to see when i'd like to come and try to grab some. whoever helped me pick up the cake i ordered was very kind. i ordered online well in advance and had no issues. came during my allotted pick up & it was a breeze, in & out in under 5 minutes. Their cake is perfect after a huge meal, it's still flavored well but not over the top. It's sweet without being too sweet. The batter was clearly mixed perfect because the consistency was impeccable and dough itself wasn't gritty and chunky. It was just my husband and I enjoying this and we did not anticipate finishing it, but oh boy did we. We've got a few more birthdays coming up and will absolutely be ordering here. Thanks!

Light fluffy frosting and layered filled, moist cake.... this pic doesn't do it justice...there's glitter on top...

Lisa's Rum Cake is one of the best bakeries in the valley. They have a variety of moist, flavorful and varied cakes. They also sell by the slice for a quick dessert. The ladies behind the counter are always cheery, personable and informative in the selection of the right cake. I prefer to buy local and this is the best local bakery.

My family has been coming here for years, their cake is always exactly as ordered down to the writing/ribbon colors. I ordered a birthday cake for my mom last week and it was delicious as always!! If you haven't had this style of cake before, the icing is whipped cream-like and light, less sweet than traditional buttercream, and you typically have to give the cake some time to thaw before serving but they always make sure to explain the timing of serving to you carefully. read more

Delicious as I remember! Ever since I was a kid (I'm 30 now), my mom would ALWAYS get a Cathy's rum cake for special occasions. Every birthday i'd look forward to a PB & Chocolate cake! We were so sad to hear when Cathy's closed down after several years. THEN the heavens must have been listening and they blessed us with Lisa's Rum cake! We were so excited to see that the legacy had lived on and I just knew that's what I needed for my wedding day. We decided to go with an small Amaretto 10in. cake for us to cut and then bought cake cuts for easy serving for the guests to enjoy. Lots of compliments on this delicious cake! Thank you Lisa's and Cathy's Rum Cakes for your years of service and quality products! We could not be more grateful you were a part of our special day. Here's to many more years of special occasions and delicious cakes! read more

Lisa helped make our wedding day so special!! During covid, we exchanged our 90 person wedding for a smaller ceremony and backyard reception in Sedona! She is so sweet, she even talked me through a bridezilla meltdown on the phone just after making our decision! We were so lucky and blessed to be able to have such a beautiful day and our cake was the cherry on top!They made sure we knew how to transport it to Sedona so it would not melt in the car and it was so easy! My oh my that cake tasted sooo good! Everyone was asking where it was from and my new father in law even said that it was the best cake he has ever tasted! My family has loved the strawberry rum cake for years and we have gone here since I was little when the shop was on Tatum and Thunderbird. It's a special cake in our family and a special cake for our wedding too!! Thank you Lisa's Rum Cake! You made our day! read more

I have been a fan of Lisa's Rum Cake for a very long time and have tried a few different flavors including the rumfetti, original rum cake, and a fresh fruit customized cake I requested about 6 years ago. They were all delicious! The last time I came the staff working there were very polite and helped me carry the cake to my car since it was large and heavy. They are always beautifully decorated and fresh tasting. Also, you can tell they use quality rum. They are pricey and it will likely cost you over $75 for a decent sized cake, but it is worth it for the right occasion. read more

Can i start off my review by making some kind of noise like you hear on the food network channel? This place is my go to for a sweet treat for their cake cuts. I've learned that it's totally worth getting out of work early just to make it to the main location instead of going to other businesses for the cake cuts or tea cuts. In order my top 5 are the circo , butter beer, blueberry limoncello, unicorn, tuxedo cake cuts. They always have amazing specials totally worth every penny. Some of my friends complain about the price but honestly in my opinion you get what you pay for! I normally am not a huge cake freak and I'm a little upset i didn't use them for my wedding cake instead. The whip cream and custard are everything. I absolutely love that there is a rotation of specials but it's also a love hate relationship. Like my favorite cake was a special and they do not have it out very often so it's rare if you see it out. I feel like I'm their often enough and paying attention to social media to see what's available 99.9% of the time. I really hope in the future they come out with loyalty cards because i love them so much! I cannot rave anymore about how much i love this place not only for the amazing cakes but Lisa and her daughter Madi are beyond pleasant to make your trip worth going. You will not be disappointed! Go now!!! Seriously GO! read more

Absolutely fantastic! My mom, sister and I went to try cake samples for my sister's upcoming wedding in October and we were not disappointed! We sampled the red velvet, strawberry rum, limoncello, and the chocolate tuxedo. Hands down our favorite was their best selling strawberry rum! The red velvet was delicious, and the chocolate tuxedo was like eating brownies. If you're thinking about having a cake for a celebration or wedding you have to get it from Lisa's!! Plus the staff is incredible - mom and daughter/family run! It's impossible to beat this place! read more

We had my baby shower at Culinary Dropout in Phoenix and my mom had ordered a cake in lieu of the cookies the restaurant offered to provide. It was the most amazing cake we had all eaten! The top was red velvet and gone within minutes. The bottom I believe was some kind banana strawberry. Not to mention the cake was beautiful looking and actual chocolate was used versus fondant. read more

I love Lisa's Rum Cake!! This is a local, family owned shop and they are the sweetest family! I've tried their cannoli and their cake cuts and they are sooo good. Their cake is some of the best I've ever had, ever. If you're looking for a cake for any occasion, or just want to pop in to grab a cake cut to go, I definitely recommend coming here! read more

History

Established in 2007.

The idea for Lisa's Rum Cake, LLC began in August 2001 when the founder of Cathy's Rum Cake & (Catering) in Chandler, Arizona., decided to sell her daughter and son-in-law the rights to make and sell "Cathy's Rum Cakes®." Their plan was to build the Cathy's Rum Cake brand by offering these unique cakes to people outside the Phoenix area. Cathy's Rum Cake Worldwide was incorporated in the State of Arizona in October 2007. Factory construction was completed in May 2009 and Operations began officially on July 1. By October 2010 the founders realized that a name change was necessary to eliminate Customer confusion. In October 2010 Lisa's Rum Cake, LLC was formed. Lisa's Rum Cake can be followed on Facebook and Twitter through links on its website; www.lisasrumcake.com. Lisa's Rum Cake is not affiliated with Cathy's Rum & (Catering).

Meet the Business Owner: Kelly P.

President and co-owner (along with wife Lisa) of Lisa's Rum Cake, LLC. Kelly received a BSME from Arizona State University in 1980. After a 26 year engineering career, Kelly left his engineering management job to pursue the specialty cake business he had licensed from his mother-in-law. Kelly is a fourth generation native of Arizona; his grandfather moved to Arizona the late 1880's. His grandfather homesteaded Power Ranch in 1920 and grew cotton, potatoes, wheat, apricots, peaches, and plums until it ceased operations in 1999.

We ordered a few different things to give a fair review, and honestly overall this place is just ok. Not horrible, just not that great. We had.. *sausage roll * ham and Swiss *cinnamon roll (regular) *cookies and cream cup cake *raspberry pop tart *chocolate chip cookie Sausage roll pastry dough was good, but the meat inside was not very flavorful. Ham and Swiss, the ham was just a single thin slice of deli meat. The cinnamon roll also missing something... maybe more sugar and better quality cinnamon? Perhaps salt in the dough? I'm not sure how they prepare theirs but definitely looked better than it tasted. Raspberry pop tart was my favorite item! Husband had no complaints on the cupcake.

They sometimes sell out of their croissant wheels, so we had to get one: croissant consistency shaped into a circle with filling and glaze. When you cut into the raspberry lemon, the so-named filling oozes out... decadence on a plate. They also had a pistachio and chocolate one, and others. Somewhat similar to cronuts but less flaky. At $9.50, I'm good for awhile! We also tried the soft lemon blueberry cinnamon roll which also came in several different flavors. Their sandwich bread is also quality; we enjoy the honey whole wheat. They have a rewards card to buy 10 loaves of bread (or challah, sweet bread) and get 1 free. They also donate their leftover goods at the end of the day to a homeless shelter. Shop local and support this business!

Just enough food for the two of us with a glass of white wine! We REALLY, REALLY wanted to try to save room for Tiramisu, but we just couldn't. We were staying at a hotel, so we knew we couldn't take home the left overs since we were heading back to California the next morning. Oh, oh, I wish you guys were here in San Diego, but looks like I will have to wait till our next trip to Chandler! What a great lively place....if it wasn't so cold I would have opted to sit outside. It looked pretty out there, too!

Thank you service was wonderful! 3/28/26 Reading previous Yelp reviews a few people mentioned that they had a hard time finding the shop. Luckily they left good instructions on what to look for and where it's at. We found it without any problems and it doesn't take much for me to get lost or turned around. Right when you walk in everything looks so pretty and delicious. I loved their GF selection and variety of pastries. We order a GF Vanilla Sprinkle Donut since they were out of Strawberry Pop Tarts.

Perhaps dining in is a better experience, I can't remember if they warm up the pastry but we took our maple, cheesecake croissant, and cinnamon roll to go. It tasted a day old. The croissant/ bread didn't taste fresh, almost stale. I opted to warm it up a bit, it was a bit better but then it just started feeling too sweet so I wasn't interested anymore. the cinnamon roll breading lacked flavor, but the cream on top was good. But again the bread dough just felt stale. It was a Sunday in the AM that we went. Not busy at all. Since it's a part of an apartment, parking is a little awkward and can feel tight. You could easily not notice the place and mistake it for being closed. It's right off of the round about. (the wind had blew over the open sign and the open sign wasn't lit) Service is okay, nice enough. Not really warm. Seating is ample and is cozy to sit and read or catch up with a friend.

If you're in the mood for a serious sweet treat, this place absolutely delivers. The whole concept is so fun. They've reinvented the classic marshmallow with a full s'mores bar where you pick from the menu and they build and toast it right in front of you. Between the gourmet marshmallows, cupcakes, and milkshakes made with Blue Bell ice cream, it's basically a sugar lover's playground. My daughter ordered the Cookie Monster shake, which was as outrageous as it sounds. She walked out with a full-on sugar buzz and a bright blue tongue, which honestly felt like a childhood rite of passage. Mission accomplished. Is it a day's worth of calories? Probably. Was it worth every bite? Absolutely. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and the shop itself is cute and really clean, which makes the whole experience even better. I'll admit I'm a little relieved we don't live down the street anymore because we definitely need the recovery time between visits. But when the sweet tooth hits, this place is a blast.

Every one of their pastries that we tasted was so good, we even went back the second day to buy more. We are absolute suckers for Lavazza coffee , and it was the perfect coffee to wash these pastries down. Everything we had was delicious, the service was great, they have staff walking around answering questions and making suggestions. It was a great experience. Everything was very clean and they constantly have someone walking around wiping tables getting them ready for the next group. Not pictured is a savory quiche that my husband picked up for breakfast the following day that was absolutely delicious! They have tons of cakes and sandwiches and so many options. You don't even know where to start. This is definitely going to be the go-to for me whenever I need pastries for special events. (or whenever I have a sweet tooth and just want something for myself.) Definitely put them down on your bucket list!

Located right next to 99 ranch and other Asian stores, 85c has Asian pastries, cookies, breads and drinks. We enjoyed a few baos with cream filling, a slice of coffee cake and the black milk tea. I usually don't get chocolatey things at Asian bakeries because they rarely "do" chocolate well, and it was the same here: the chocolate chip cookie and black forest cake were only okay and just not rich enough with a cocoa taste. Sign up for their rewards program to get discounts and promotions, even though you have to buy quite a bit to get anything and the points expire. Compared to non-Asian bakeries, everything is a much more reasonable price overall. A few tables are available, though I can imagine it being crowded. Still would love to get an 85c closer to home!

Everything looked great, but it was a such a warm day so my mom and I opted for something light. The Coffee Cake was indeed as light and airy as it looked. The cake layers tasted like a sponge cake with slightly dry edges (a little over-baked). I think the espresso layers were mousse and not too sweet. It was topped with a chocolate covered espresso bean that was tasty as well. Overall it was a nice afternoon treat. I would like to go back sometime and try their Japanese cheesecake, and their raisin bread loaf too.

Now, for tasty pan dulce try panaderia los jarochos in Phx. The conchitas here will last you days soft and moist. Granted, They have limited selection BUT I think that's why the quality is better.

East coast bakery lovers, this is for you. A family owned/operated bakery specializing in Italian desserts. And they only use whipped cream frosting! They are known for their cakes...the Strawberry French Vanilla is my personal favorite as it's been all of my birthday cakes...but their cake cuts and new Sicilian Cannoli are to die for!!! Cake cuts are their alternate to cupcake. Single-serve slices big enough to share or indulge in yourself. The bakery always has a large selection of flavors (10-12 I think). The new Italian Rainbow Cake is inspired by Italian Rainbow cookies, filled with cannoli cream and amaretto custard. The ganache drip on top is equally appealing to the tastebuds as it is the eyes. Don't forget Unicorn Cake! My friends love how colorful and tasty those are. I love giving cuts for gifts. Let me say, you have never had a cannoli like Lisa's...they put their Italian custard inside with their Sicilian ricotta Cannoli cream. As if that's not decadent enough, they bake their own shells out of Italian Pizzelle cookies!! I hate the typical fried Cannoli shells, so if you do too then you'll LOVE these. Get a loaded Cannoli if you want whipped cream, ganache, and a cherry on top ;) Give Lisa's a try if you're sick of the super sweet, out-of-a-can cakes and treats! Their gourmet products will make you rethink ever going to a supermarket again! Oh and if you need something in a pinch, they make all their cakes fresh so they take last minute orders. Salut! read more
