I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to back Scharolina's Custom Cakes & Confections. The eatery is gorgeously decorated and the bright greeting we received made it even more lovely. The owner enthusiastically shared the plentiful options available to us. I tried the turtle brownie and I immediately knew I'd be returning. My dad had the banana pudding and get emphatically said it was excellent. I'll be back to try the cake. Highly recommend! read more

First off I want to start by saying how friendly the staff were, the cleanliness of the location was definitely up to par (cute spot, lots of pink!) and on top of it, the desserts are pretty bangin. The owner has such a nice vibe, makes You just want to hang out and stay a while. The lemonade was a little sweet for me, but it was really good. One thing I would recommend when visiting this location, however, you might want to ask prices or be prepared for a hefty price tag. Items are made fresh with good ingredients and it definitely shows on the price of the items here. Don't let that stop you from stopping in though, it's worth it. There is one thing I have to point out that kind of bothered me and I'm hoping that they just don't notice it's happening.. but it seems like the system already adds a tip, then adds all the Richmond taxes, and then the machine proceeds to ask if you would like to leave I believe in 18,20 or 25% tip. Being super impressed with the location, of course I left a tip.. I didn't even notice until later on when I looked at the receipt that it cost me $23 for a bread, pudding and lemonade. That's my fault though because I didn't ask the price, I didn't pay attention during the transaction, so I'm not faulting them for this, this time. I will definitely be back and I plan to order a full-size cake for an upcoming birthday party. Overall, I would for sure recommend this place for a sweet treat. Let's keep the good spots open, support your local businesses! read more

Limited street parking. Had to walk 3 blocks to get to the shop. Greeted immediately once we walked in. A friend woman guided us to the counter. Asked us what we were interested in buying today. I told her I wanted strawberry shortcake . None was available but if I give her 10 minutes she'll put it together for me. We waited. We got 2 big chunk cookies, 1 strawberry shortcake and 1 banana pudding. Since today is my birthday she gave me a free cookie. I tried the strawberry shortcake once I got home. Amazing!!!! Only ate 2 scoops of it once i got home. There's always tomorrow. If you're in the Richmond area, stop on by. Very stylist shop, extremely clean inside and outside. read more

I have been purchasing cakes and baked creations from her for YEARS. Since before COVID. I am grateful to be a loyal customer as her customer as her offerings never disappoint. I was able to make it to her soft opening this afternoon and purchased her new creation.... Red velvet Oreo cake. Yet, again, no notes. It is so goooooood. This better maintain a place in rotation. Everything looked so good I had a friend who doesn't eat sweets, make a pound cake purchase. The place was originally, Hot Diggity Donuts, but she has made it her own and I'm proud to have been able to support. It is bright, clean, and inviting. The line was out the door by 1:15 and people were ordering multiple slices. I will definitely be back. read more

Very disappointing and unprofessional experience. Scharolina was very sweet when I initially spoke with her and promised to send the cake details and sketch within 48 hours. Unfortunately, she completely ghosted me afterward. I followed up multiple times by phone, voicemail, and even left messages with her manager, but received no response. With my event only days away, I was left scrambling to find another baker at the last minute. If she couldn't take the order, a simple message would have been enough. Being pleasant initially means very little without communication and follow-through. Extremely stressful and disappointing experience. read more

This place had magnificent desserts. I ordered every cinnamon bun they had at the time, a slice of Strawberry cake, a slice of Red Velvet cake, and a chocolate chip cookie. When I say that the plain cinnamon bun and the apple cinnamon bun made me lose my mind, I am not exaggerating. Moist, fluffy, sweet, and flavorful is what I experienced. Ms. Scharolina stuck her whole foot in the Strawberry and Red Velvet cakes. Incredibly moist, soft, and gracious to know someone who can bake like this. The cookie was the icing on top of the cake. Very soft and moist. Lots of flavor, lots of chocolate chips. The service was exceptional, and the ambiance was inviting. Overall, I recommend visiting this place three times a day. read more
