We recently moved to the area from CA. We had a cake lady there that we loved. She had done all of the cakes for our celebrations, so I was sad knowing she couldn't do my daughter's first birthday cake. You guys, this place absolutely killed it. I wanted something simple for her cake as it would be just for her. I emailed back and forth and Lisa was kind enough to answer every single question I had. I got her cake ordered and then we had to cancel her party because of COVID. I called and they said "let us know when you'd like it. We can keep the order". When we rescheduled her party, I called again and they said "no problem. It'll be ready". I was NOT disappointed. Not only was it perfect and exactly what I wanted, but it was adorable and it tasted amazing! My girl ate more of it than I expected her to. After the first bite her eyes got big and she went back in for more. Thank you, Star Cakes, for making my daughter's first birthday perfect. This cake was everything I wanted. And after the year we've had even something as simple and small as this cake was exactly what I needed. We're moving to Ozark soon but this will still be our cake place. Thankfully it's not far. You guys are amazing! read more

In town and needed some goodies to take back to Saint Louis on Monday - looked up this local bakery and ordered a custom 6inch Red Velvet with a random mix of a dozen cupcakes. Things to Note: 1) Very friendly and accommodating staff. Ordered a cake on Friday and they got it done for me when it opened Monday AM. They even wrapped the cake so it wouldn't dry out during my travels. 2) No-premade cakes, you need to order it in advance. Cupcakes are premade and you can choose a variety. 3) Best cupcake is the Salted Carmel. Complete winner. 4) Known for the Red Velvet w/ Cream Cheese - but I'm not a red velvet or cream cheese fan, but the group liked it. I do think it was too sweet for my preference. 5) Happy Hour for cupcakes during the week. Buy 1 get 1 free w/ the inventory that is left! 6) FYI - downtown location is closed. So this is the thing, I'm not a cupcake person or sweets in general. But when there is a birthday or any type of celebration - it is silly not to celebrate with cake and a beautiful one! Local Bakery. Beautiful presentation. Good People. So I don't know what else I can really ask for? read more

I have used this Bakery for several events I've planned. This time I had requested a mermaid cake and sent a few inspo photos but let them do their thing. I was BLOWN AWAY. it looked even better than I had anticipated. Everyone was wowed! It was seriously too pretty to even eat. Plus it was absolutely delicious. The pictures don't even do it justice. The shells were so beautiful and realistic, I didn't even realize they were edible at first. Either way, they were already my go to Bakery but now they are my only Bakery. read more

Ordered some cookies for a meeting. Very good and pleased with the service and selection.

My family and I were just coming through town for one night. That night happened to by my oldest son's 21st birthday. We really wanted to get him a cake but, breezing in at 7 or so, it wasn't going to be that easy to find anything in a town that we did not know at all. Found Star Cakes online and gave them a buzz. The owner offered to make the delivery to our hotel himself after closing as, "It's right on my way home from work." Super nice. Great service. And the cupcakes were delicious! Thank you for helping us to make our son's birthday on the road a little bit nicer. read more

Delicious variety of cupcakes and now they have cookies. We love this place. Very friendly and accommodating.

Star Cakes - Ravenclaw birthday cake - Bakeries Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

Recently bought a birthday cake for my wife and it was the hit of the party. The cake was very moist and the frosting was delicious. One of the things I like best was that the frosting was not so thick that it took away from the cake flavor. I was not specific on the style of decoration and was quite pleased with how beautiful the cake was styled. While a little more expensive than the generic cakes available form the super stores this one was definitely worth it. read more

Shout out to Star Cakes for delivering a delicious order of their Easter cookie kit for us to have in time for the holiday. They were so friendly and have the best tasting goodies!! Thank you again to all the staff @ Star Cakes! read more

Fantastic cupcakes with a great staff!! I went in last minute to request a single custom cupcake and Star Cakes went above and beyond my expectations. I wanted a cupcake with the playstation logo as a going away gift for a friend. The decorator took my challenge and said she could have it ready in 30 minutes. I came back, it was finished on time and looked AWESOME. My friend loved it. Thank you so much Star Cakes!! All the cupcakes are great but I HIGHLY recommend the milky way cupcake if you haven't tried it before. I tried it for the first time the other day, as I saw the women in front of me tried to buy all of the ones they had so I figured it had to be good. I definitely wasn't disappointed. New personal favorite. read more

My husband stopped by yesterday to pick up some cupcakes for my sons birthday. These cupcakes were are and stale. The icing on them was hard and dried out and the cake just crumbled apart . These were Terrible don't waste money on their cupcakes.when I notified the owner she was Rude and basically said we were lying about the cupcakes. What kind of owner doesn't stand by her products? Then is rude when you give them feedback. Don't waste your time and money at Star Cakes . read more

We stopped in to check out the shop because we were next door, and well who doesn't love cake? Nice little local shop with a decent selection of cupcakes. You also have to give props to this business for recycling their boxes, and donating week old cakes to local shelters. Because we were full of ice cream we decided to get 2 cupcakes, and split them. I was excited to see a bacon cupcake I feel not nearly enough people make them here, and we also grabbed a peanut butter cup one. The bacon definitely tasted like maple syrup and bacon, the texture of the batter seemed a bit odd, and I felt it tasted more like a breakfast muffin than a cupcake; it would be truly great with an over easy egg inside. The peanut butter cake was great, rich with chocolate, and peanut butter. The cake itself was as moist as it gets, absolutely as fantastic cake I highly recommend it. The staff was very friendly, and the owner proud of his business. If you're in the mood for a cupcake on that side of town swing in and grab one. Reasonably priced for a gourmet cupcake. read more

Lisa at Star Cakes Bakery made our wedding cake for 10/10/2020. We met her at a wedding expo and had a beautifully set up tasting and consultation at her storefront. We met with two other local bakeries and chose Lisa because of her professionalism and skill. She was between the other two bakeries in cost. After our initial meeting, all communication was done through email (my preferred method). Everything from Lisa was clearly stated and done in a kind and professional way. When COVID hit, Lisa was absolutely incredible in working with us to modify our order. She went above and beyond to make our experience easy and stress-free. We had an out of town event and she packaged our cakes with care to make the trip. Everything traveled beautifully and the cakes were stunning and delicious. Lisa was quick to respond, friendly to interact with and an expert in her field. We will be life-long customers. If you are looking for someone to make your cake, choosing anyone else would be a mistake. read more

This bakery ROCKS! It was my brother and sister in laws birthday today and tomorrow, and I'm in Las Vegas! Not only did they deliver cupcakes to them, but were awesome about writing a snarky message on my behalf on the box!! Thank you for making my family giggle!! You guys are awesome! And they emailed me the receipt! Makes me happy to know an awesome local company was able to help me out last minute! read more

With all the cupcake shops in town, THIS one is the BEST!! Salted carmel, rock star, lemon raspberry, red velvet...to name a few, are just mind blowing awesome. Even has the best chocolate chip cookies I have ever had. I bought two dozen of the cookies for my sons birthday party and everyone at the party had to know where I got them. They were all gone before the cake was cut. The flavor is wonderful, not just a pretty cup to look at. Moist and very flavorful. read more

I love this place. Each time that I come into town, I would always stop by and purchase a few cookies for my family to enjoy. It's too bad they are now closed to walk in orders, taking custom orders only. I'll remember that for the future but unfortunately, likely won't have a huge need for that. read more

Not good at all for something nice on the fly. I'm sure there cakes are good, but I got the impression they are way over there heads, and too busy to fit you in. I was looking for a small cake that feeds 4 people for my daughter wedding. I had no guidelines at all for cake and they still brushed me off. I sent an email on Saturday and mid Monday I call to follow up and she can't find the email. I just wish on Saturday they didn't give me false hope. Now I'm scrambling! read more

A bit pricy but the cup cakes are excellent. Service was very good and they were able to handle a large order well. I liked the amount of variety the shop had you would have to be mental to not find something you like. read more

This place simply sucks go too Wal-Mart they know how a cake should taste like sad I pitty the fool who pumps so much sugar in there icing you lose your teeth before you finish. read more

OM NOM! These cupcakes are delicious. The cookies and cream one blew me away with its "cookie crust" just beneath the frosting. Each cupcake smells divine too, so right as you bite into it, you get an olfactory sensation of YUM. The PB&J one was tasty and nostalgic. Salted caramel was mmmmm. Raspberry filled lemon? Yes please. Basically, go here and enjoy. read more

We arrived just a minute too late. The lights were out and it looked empty. We had already started for the car so it took a second to register the click and creak of the door behind us. We were welcomed inside, they turned on the lights and we had wonderful cupcakes. It was a breath of fresh air to have a business go out of the way to make sure we were happy!! read more

Love their cupcakes! They are moist and full of flavor! I have been here quite a few times and continue to head back.

Picked up 1/2 dozen cupcakes for my brother's birthday. The cake itself was very good - chocolate and vanilla. Loved the chocolate frosting- the double caramel was delicious, although the frosting was a bit too sweet for (even!) me. Have a red velvet & strawberry for tomorrow. Thanks! read more

My in laws came home with about a dozen of these. I tried two, the red velvet and some sort of filled caramel thing. Both cakes were dry and tasteless. The icing on top tasted like a spoonful of straight sugar. My husband can't even remember what flavor he tried because "there was too much going on". Extra star for presentation, but that's being generous. read more

I love cake. I am a huge cake fan, let me tell you. I've never had to force myself to politely finish a cupcake before, but that's what happened at my friend's birthday party. The cupcakes were chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream frosting. The cake was so dry and dense that it reminded me of corn bread. It wasn't flavored well at all. The chocolate frosting just tasted like sugar and didn't have a buttery or chocolatey flavor. I have had samples from their downtown location and can say that this appears to be their recipe, as I had the same experience there. I've never ordered from them directly, which is why I gave them 3 stars. The staff at the downtown location were nice, but I never dealt with the Republic Road location directly. I'm sure they're kind people, I just can't get behind these cupcakes. They're really bad. read more

Some of the best in town! I have surprised my wife with Star Cakes more than once. Their options are excellent! They are creative with their selection. I recommend the Salted Caramel, Raspberry filled with lemon cream cheese frosting, or the Carrot Cake. The folks running this place are always nice which makes the transaction enjoyable. Whether you want a dozen or just one I recommend this place. read more

This is the second year in a row my husband has purchased my birthday cake from Star Cakes and both times have been absolutely delicious.

Everything here is scrumptious, but you gotta try the thumb-print cookies. Melt in you mouth butter goodness.

I had a large order of cupcakes for a presentation. The day of the event, I was informed there where 1/3 of people attending that I was told. In fear of wasting Cupcakes and money ..I called and they were able to accommodate my new order of less cupcakes . They were so polite and very professional ! And plus the cupcakes were delicious and a huge hit! I will definitely use them for my next event! I appreciated their kindness and flexibility! read more
