I live in Wake Forest and had placed an order at a WF bakery for my gluten-free wife's birthday cake. I called the the day before to confirm that our cake was GF and ask about a pick-up time. I was told that they "don't do gluten-free". I now have a cake emergency. After calling several bakeries that were closer to me and leaving messages, I found Sweet Cherry and called. A very professional voice listened to my circumstances and said that she would be happy to help. Im sure that they prefer to have more notice, but Sweet Cherry delivered in 24 hours a gluten-free, red velvet cake. It was beautiful. It was also moist and delicious. According to my 12 yr old daughter, "the best cake ever!". I was pleasantly surprised with how good it was. Everyone at our gathering was complimentary. Thank you Sweet Cherry. You saved me at least a week in the dog house and ensured that my wife could eat cake on her birthday. You'll be hearing from me for both daughter's birthdays. BTW, of the 7 othet bakeries that I called, only one called back. Thanks again for answering your phone and for being so nice and accommodating. read more

We have bought several cakes over the years from Brittany at Sweet Cherry Bakery. She has worked miracles in the past for us, but none more so than this today. Our son's birthday party was today and 48 hours ago, we had no cake and were snowed in and couldn't get any response from other bakeries all week. Brittany not only responds but is able to do two cakes and cupcakes and do so with less than 48 hours notice. She was also able to do the customizations I wanted and made the whole process painless. Her cakes always taste amazing and are so light. They don't leave you feeling like you need an immediate nap like other rich cakes. Needless to say, we will be continuing to use her incredible services and highly recommend her! read more

Well it would be zero if possible. CLEARLY had everything set up ahead, including the full payment and the date of the party IN PLAIN VIEW the entire time and in writing. Day of event and waiting for delivery, nothing, call and email and nothing, then suddenly an email stating she had the date wrong and could deliver the next day, after the party. I was devasted and we scrambled last minute. Absolutely DO NOT recommend. This was a birthday, I can't even imagine a wedding or bigger event. Not even big enough to give an apology over the phone, but just a half a** sorry the date was wrong. They shouldn't be in business. Absolutely do not recommend! read more

Lack of communication. I used Sweet Cherry Bakery for my daughters 1st birthday cupcakes because she offers vegan options and my daughter has an egg allergy. Communication was a challenge and I almost thought she wasn't going to follow through. To my surprise, she did and they were delicious, but design was a bit flimsy. I decided to try again for the next year's birthday since I still needed vegan (and I couldn't find many custom vegan options around) but this time was even more challenging. Lots of email exchange, but you can't book through email so I would call with no response or call back. She even responded via email saying she would call on X day... never did. I tried a few times, no luck. Overall communication is terrible which is stressful when you are trying to plan for a party. I would have appreciated a call back even if it was to say you are too busy that week and cannot accommodate instead of leaving someone hanging. I've known others to have similar experiences. read more

Had UNC grad cake made. Was suppose to be a marble (chocolate and vanilla swirl) cake which I told everyone at party while cake was being cut, and " nope" it wasn't marble. Just embarrassing. I left a message explained the party foul ...and no reply back. It's kinda step #1 when making a cake is reading the kind of cake your making. Just a heads up read more

Wow I'm so impressed with Brittany at Sweet Cherry Bakery! We have severe allergies in our family and Brittany was able to make us a gluten free, egg free ballerina birthday cake for my little girl. They have so many flavor options and the taste and the design of the cake were on point! She went beyond my expectations! She also made us some gluten free, egg free cake pops that everyone, especially the kids, loved! Communication was great, pricing good, and pick up was easy! read more

This bakery is amazing! I've had their vegan and gluten free cupcakes for years (ordered by a friend) for Halloween. This year, I decided to get cupcakes for my son's birthday and for my coming out party. The cupcakes were vegan, gluten free and amazing! The decorations were perfect. When my son saw them, he was so excited. I was very impressed by all of the designs. The owner is very kind and easy to work with. They also have reasonable prices for allergen friendly cupcakes. I'm so impressed by this bakery! read more

An amazing bakery if you're looking for something vegan! I had them do cupcakes and a grooms cake and both were delicious. The cake tasting process was super easy, and the customer service was wonderful. All the flavors were delicious, but I'd especially recommend the lemon and the strawberry! Pricing was fair too. read more

My daughter requested cake pops for her 5th birthday and I am super-impressed with Sweet Cherry Bakery. We were able to mix and match designs and the cake was delicious!

good luck getting them to return emails or phone calls. There stuff looked wonderful and I loved that they were local so I would be able to pick them up myself rather than deal with having them shipped. Tried email and phone messages for over a week with no response. I have now decided to try elsewhere but unfortunately I'm 2 days late to place an order with any other custom bakery who can do the type of items I need and get it to me on time. Thanks for nothing. A message saying you were too busy last week would have made all the difference in the world. read more

Sweet Cherry Bakery is the baking genius of all time! I have gone there twice (so far) custom cakes and dipped treats for family celebrations and have never been disappointed. She carefully and creatively designs the cakes down to a T by what I describe to her. Compared to others in the area, these beautiful creations are also very affordable and good prices for the amazing quality of the products. I will always use Sweet Cherry Bakery for custom cakes and other baked goods as well recommend to family and frie read more

The cake was amazing!!! So talented and with such short notice got me exactly what I wanted!!! I was honestly only going for a visual , it was part of the decor for my daughter's birthday party and the look of the cake was extremely important to her. We weren't that concerned about taste and any store bought birthday cake always is gross to me. This cake was the most amazing tasting cake we have EVER had. We couldn't stop eating it!!! It was so good my husband had to take the remaining to work so we wouldn't over indulge!!! Thank you for making such an important event 100 million times better!!!! read more

Beware! "Bakery" is a home with a cake in the window and no sign so my daughter and I did t even know it was the place. Arrived at 1215 for an after 12 pick up of a graduation cake for my daughter's party. Owner greeted me and said she wasn't quite finished could I come back in 25 minutes. Came back and she said "I thought you were someone else I don't have your order". Had emailed and received a quote but apparently didn't notice in the signature that you had to pay ahead to confirm the order. This was under her name, address, phone in her email signature. Why she couldn't have just stated that in the 2 emails I don't under stand. Very poor communication. No apology just I can have a cake for you tomorrow. The party was today so that wouldn't help. Very unprofessional for a business. read more

This cake was amazing. Not only was it a tough one to make, it came out awesome and tasted even better. They responded very quickly to my emails and answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend this bakery. Can't wait to order another cake! read more

Sweet Cherry Bakery - Lumberjack theme cake. Inside is plaid - Bakeries Near Me

Horrible cake ever . Just don't knw how to bake cakes . Cake was dry and their flavors r nothing but artificial flavor over sponge or vanilla cake . Icing was so sweet and half the cake was only made of icing than cake . They don't knw to make small or mid size cake but only provide large huge portion and with that quality you will just end up putting in thrash . Just a waste of money . Customer service is extremely poor for a business that's running since so long . If u just want to eat sugar with hardly any flavor and pay over 40-50$ for a lowest priced cake plz go ahead but For me Never again to this place . read more

So I ordered a cake two weeks ago from Sweet Cherry's bakery. Made an appt to pick up at 12:00 today and went to pick the cake up and was told she had some issues with anther cake and my order wasn't ready could I come back in an hour. I explained I live in Clayton and I would be back but wasn't happy. So , I go back two hours later cake still isn't ready and the owner says she will deliver the cake ... it's now almost 5:00 pm and we have no sweet sixteen birthday cake. No call or email from the owner of Sweet Cherry's bakery in Apex NC. I can say I am so disappointed my daughter doesn't have a cake of which I pre paid for and no response from the bakery. I wouldn't ever recommend Sweet Cherry's bakery in Apex NC to anyone! Now we have no bday cake and it's 5:00 on Saturday! One mad mama here! read more

I placed an order for a no sugar added lemon cake with lemon filling for Christmas. It was the worst cake I ever tasted and also my family members. The icing tasted like you were eating lard/Crisco the cake was so eggy tasting and dense/dry and there was no lemon filling. Needless to say no one was able to eat it and $35 dollars was thrown in the garbage. I called them the day after Christmas to speak to them about how horrible the cake was and I got the answering machine, I left a message about how the cake was, my name and phone number and I never received a call back. I'm assuming they are not concerned about a disappointing customer because I never heard back from them and it's been over a week. read more

This company was perfect to work with. I have to change decor a couple times but they always got back in a timely fashion, the cake tasted amazing, was extremely reasonably priced and the highlight of the party. We would use sweet cherry again in a heartbeat. read more

If I could give them a negative one, I would. Completely displeased with the lack of service I received. I drove all the way to the location only for no one to answer the door or phone, after speaking with some one the previous day to confirm I would be there. Complete waste of my time! Never again! Glad I found a better bakery. read more

I called so many bakeries trying to find one that wouldn't charge me an arm and leg. I ended up trying this bakery. Their price was so reasonable compared to all the others in Raleigh and Cary.

Ho.ly. Crap. I've had two cakes now from this amazing woman and they were beyond stellar. They were delicious and moist and just the right amount of sweet. Both cakes were vegan and I couldn't have asked for anything better. The first cake was in a geode style and was beautiful. The second cake was a rosette smash cake. This is definitely my go-to bakery from now on. Just fantastic! And the smash cake was only $20. can't ask for better. read more

Amazing job with daughter's birthday cake a coordinating cookies. Everything was delicious, beautiful, and met my expectations.

This is probably the worst customer service I have ever experienced. They never return calls or emails... if you need to order a cake this is not the place to get it. My sister also called and no one ever returned her call.. apparently they don't need the business... don't waste your time! read more

Stay away. Our first experience with Sweet cherry bakery was hands down awful. Got a 3 tiered small cake,of $120 and a smash cake. First, the cakes are made out of a home.(didn't know that at ordering). We got to peep at the cake,she had it already in a box. She was supposed to use icing at the bottom and she choose to use fondant (uggh!) The gold middle piece, uneven & icing didn't cover all of cake, the top number 12 was not centered. I Noticed this when we got home opened the cake,didn't even move it from the box, immediately sent several picture text called Brittany (the owner) to let her know the cake is crookedly done and falling apart at the bottom. The fondant was grossly thick! Now upset that the "professional" $120 cake is falling apart! She told me to drive it back,she will not do a complete refund.Keep in mind this cake was for our daughters 12th bday within 2 hours.What makes me really upset is we had a dairy allergy with a child so part cake was vegan.Very aware of this, She told me to go out to get another cake and bring her back the cake next time we would be that way. You caint just get a "vegan"cake. So you can imagine now, having "lifetime" pictures that have a "shitty" looking cake in them. Daughter and us were so embarrassed by this cake. The taste: Not good. Very blah! Cake was dry,it was very chewy..needing water to wash it down.Wonder why she used so many straws in the cake?? That was weird to cut around about 16 straws. All 3 layers were different flavors. I hope this lets me add pictures of the cake that keep falling. Hats off to sweet cherry bakery for a crap cake, and didn't stand behind your product. read more

I would like to start by saying that the cake I paid $105 PLUS $15 for delivery is the WORSE cake I've ever had in my whole life. I hate to be dramatic but it was, not only was it hard, dry, with no flavor whatsoever but the layer of icing was two times bigger than the layer of cake. On their website it states that if you are not happy with your cake to return the rest of the uneaten cake within 48 hrs. I contacted Brittany to let her know I was beyond unhappy with the cake and that I would like to drop off the ENTIRE cake because none of my guests ate it, and the guests that tried it were throwing it away. I ended up running to Walmart to buy a backup cake which my guests ate within minutes. When I called no one answered so I left a voicemail asking for Brittney to return my call(haven't gotten a call yet). I also emailed her and got a response within an hour or two. I explained to her my issue with the cake and that I would be more them happy to drive to the bakery to drop off the rest of the uneaten cake that day. It's about a 30 minute drive that I was more than willing to make. She replied to me by apologizing for me being unhappy with the cake, but never mentioned when I could drop it off. So I emailed her again asking when I could drop it off, she replied by stating that since it was a holiday they were closed and that they didn't offer any refunds, which was stated on their website and that Walmart's cake would never compare to theirs being that theirs are made from scratch not premade cake mix. She also said that it just seemed I didn't like their cakes being she had spoken to other customers from that same weekend whose cakes were made with the same batter and all were 100% satisfied. Not once did I request a refund, I emailed her to let her know I was not happy with the cake and wanted to return it within the 48 hours like it states on her website. Haven't heard back from her yet, so I decided to just throw out the cake, I've had it sitting in my kitchen for 3 days now. Also, my baby wasn't even able to smash her cake, the damn thing was too hard! And im giving it 1 star ONLY because I have to in order to post. read more

I ordered a strawberry and butter cream cake (YUCK). The cake looked ok but it tasted horrible. The layers of cake were so thin, all I could taste was alot of super sweet frosting and very little cake. My guest said the cake was way to sweet so I was left with bascially a whole cake because no one wanted any. When I complained I was told, sorry and that they could offer me 10% off my next cake. NO THANKS there will not be a next order. read more

I ordered a cake for 25 people plus a smash cake two weeks before the date I needed it. Early Friday morning I got an email saying she had a medical emergency in the family but would still make my cake they would just need to deliver it because the actual bakery would be closed for walk ins. I was originally picking up the cake at 10 am Saturday morning. My party was Saturday at 4. I said that was fine and left my cell number if there was trouble. At 12:30 on Saturday I happened to check my email and there was an email that was sent at 10:30 in the morning saying her family member took a turn for the worse and she couldn't do my cake at all. Let me preface this by saying I am incredibly sorry there was a health emergency but my cake would've been most likely baked on Friday for it to be delivered on Saturday so she knew it wouldn't be ready way before she emailed me. Not to mention not everyone regularly checks emails so if I would've received a phone call that morning I would've had way more time to deal with the lack of cake and most importantly my smash cake. The cake should've been cancelled on Friday morning in the first place but Friday evening would've also been a good time to let me know. Super unprofessional way to handle this. I would definitely not recommend this bakery. Again I am super sorry for the health issues and hope everything turned out ok but when you own a business you have to be more professional. read more

I ordered a sugar free cake for a baby shower for a mom with gestational diabetes. The cake was delicious and enjoyed by all. Most of my contact with the bakery was by email.

I had the same problem as the other reviewer, but they were much ruder to me and my mother in law. We ordered a sugar free cake that looked great, but was disgusting. When we called one person they said they would send us a new one and when we didn't receive it we were promised a refund. This is after they ignored our phone calls for days. Then the next person said we would get no refund because we got what we ordered. Which was not the truth. They have the worst customer service ever. Would never order from them again. All I can say is get your order in writing and get receipts. They can't take criticism. read more

I placed a cake order with you to be delivered on 3/9/13 for my daughter's 1st birthday party. I found the company on an internet search bcecause I live out of town. On the morning of my daughter's party, I received a call at 10 am stating that the delivery driver was not coming in and could I meet them. I was in Roxboro at the time of the call, there was no way I could have driven to Raleigh from Roxboro, got ready and set up for my daughter's party by the time it was supposed to start. I was able to get my friend who lives in Durham to meet someone from the company. She was told that the person would be there at 12:30 and they were still not there by 1pm. No one was answering her call and I even called and sent a text message with no response. I looked on the company Facebook page and found another number. The person I spoke to stated someone was still on the way. By the time my friend dropped the cake off, went home and got herself and her infant ready, they had missed over the half of the party. When we opened the box, the cake had tilted over and some parts were smashed. I couldn't even set the cake out for display at her party. We took it to the back and cup it up so no would see it. The cupcakes were also dry. Also the top of the cake was supposed to be her smash cake as discussed in previous emails but it was made of rice krispies. We had to use a cupcake as her smash cake. I was under the impression that if i could not get someone to meet them, I would not have been able to get my cake at all. I emailed them pictures of the cake and how it was smashed when we opened the box and to this date they still have not replied! read more

This cake was a huge disappointment. We ordered a custom cake with fondant and only the charm at the top was made of fondant. It looked like it had been decorated by a toddler and it tasted even worse - dry and flavorless. Food Lion makes better cakes and charges 1/4 of the price. I will never order from here again and will tell my friends not to either. read more
