We were visiting for my mother-in-law's birthday and I needed a birthday cake for her the next day. I asked at the facility where she lives if there was a good bakery here in town and it was unanimous! Now I understand why. I called about 3p and special ordered a two layer chocolate chocolate cake with strawberry filling and butterflies on top. I had no idea what I would end up with. I asked if I could pick it up by 11a the next morning. "Sure!", she said. I actually showed up 30 mins early and there it was-the most adorable cake I've seen! Little silk butterflies floating above the cake - it was so much more than I could've imagined! They had quite a business of seated tables at 10:30a on a Thursday, I was impressed and definitely want to return for a leisurely lunch, coffee or just to grab a cupcake (or a dozen!) on the go. Check out my pic of the cake - it's too precious!!

Can I give 10 stars please! I cannot say enough good things…read moreabout Sam and Twisted Cupcakes! I called from New Jersey around lunchtime, trying to send something that same day to a friend in rural Illinois who'd just lost a family member. I was running out of options, and I swear I thought no one would answer the phone thinking it was a telemarketer! But thankfully, Sam answered and once I explained why I was calling, she did everything she could to help. She put together a beautiful box of brownies, apple squares, lemon bars, and other treats on short notice. Then she personally drove 20-30 minutes to my friend's house to hand-deliver it! Back home in Jersey, a rush order like that with delivery would've easily cost me well over $100. And my friend told me everything was super delicious and gone in minutes!!! Sam, I'm so grateful you went above and beyond for someone you didn't even know, calling from all the way in New Jersey. It's hard when a friend is hurting and you can't just show up at their door. You helped me send a little love from far away, and that meant more to me than you know. If you're anywhere near Twisted Cupcakes, go see Sam and get yourself some cupcakes, brownies, apple squares, and lemon bars! I hope you get flooded with orders, Sam. Thank you so, so much. When I come out to visit my friend, I'm definitely stopping by!

I actually planned to start using this as my main bakery, but sadly I won't be using them anymore. I wanted a cake that was 50 servings and was quoted $250. Understandable, they work hard and deserve to charge that. Unfortunately, that's not what I wanted to pay for this cake so she recommended changing it to 25 servings & adding cupcakes for $175. I agreed (even though I did get a 25 serving cake for $65 3 weeks ago.) I understand this cake was 2 tiers and more detailed. With the addition of cupcakes I understood the $175 price. However, it was $175 for only the cake- not cupcakes. Ok, even though that wasn't how it was quoted fine, we'll just provide our own cupcakes. So she then told me the total and it's $186 (or something close to that.) That's with tax I was told. So why was I ever told $175 in the first place? Also, I'm not 100% sure, but pretty sure that all of the other "quotes" I was given from them was what I paid each time. Not a different price later. I understand tax- that's not my issue. It's the not saying things clearly. It was very misleading to suggest changing to the smaller cake & cupcakes for $175. Then, before I decided against the additional cupcakes she said it would be $225. I asked why would I do that when it's basically the same price that it was to begin with with the original cake I wanted. She in an annoyed with me voice let me know it was $25 less & that she wasn't trying to rip me off. It don't think she was either, but she definitely wasn't clear with pricing, seemed to have an attitude towards the end & didn't seem to value my business which is super unfortunate. I try to have loyalty to any service that does a nice job and is consistent & I get many cakes- probably averaging 1 or so a month. I also always recommend whoever I use when people ask. Unfortunately, this will be my last cake from Two Whisks Bakery & my recommendation will probably be this story instead now. I do want to note the lady I dealt with the last 2 times was not the same as today & she was lovely. Sad I won't be doing business with her anymore. I know the struggle of small businesses & word of mouth advertising and it's unfortunate how this situation ended up.

The best donuts I have ever had! Hands down, you can't go wrong with anything you get from them…read more Delicious

I read about this business on Facebook. We chose to try it since we always prefer local businesses…read moreover chain stores. The bake shop is decorated nicely and very clean. There were numerous choices making it slightly difficult to decide what to try for our first visit LOL. We finally decided on a Peanut Butter Classic Cookie, and the Chocolate Maple Bacon and Bavarian Chocolate Dipped Gourmet Donuts. Everything was delicious; however, my absolute favorite was the Bavarian Chocolate Dipped Gourmet Donut. The first thing I noticed was an excellent amount of chocolate icing across the entire top and on the sides of the donut. It was very chocolatey, very smooth, and perfectly sweet. The donut itself was very different than any Bismarck donut I've ever had. It was a VERY light, VERY fresh, soft dough vs the dryer denser dough of a chain location. The Bavarian cream filling was very flavorful with a light and creamy texture versus a thick pudding texture of the typical filled donuts. It was clearly freshly made that day and will absolutely be on my order each time. Our only "problem" was when we wanted to stop by to try something new and were very disappointed that we arrived on a day they were not open. We both agreed it was like wanting Chik-fil-A and then realizing it was a Sunday and they were closed. We were back the next day and will not make that mistake again! I planned to take photos of our second choices but they were consumed much too quickly. Of course this means we will be back as soon as possible. I highly recommend Josephine's Bakeshop, and supporting a local business, every time you can do so.
