Updating this review because my experience with their custom cupcakes for my gender reveal was HORRIBLE. I was pregnant and literally cried over it. I could have very easily went to Small Cakes and spent less money. Going forward I will never buy cupcakes elsewhere. I'm giving them 1 star fact that the design was beautiful and they placed the edible stars I supplied perfectly. The second star is for their customer service when placing my order. I deducted 3 stars because the price, the fact that the cupcakes tasted plain/spongy, they didn't provide a protective box to get the cupcakes home literally less than 2 miles away AND because they were so top heavy they fell over. I opened the box and half the cupcakes were damaged. read more

I always come here to get a slice of cake and cupcakes when I want to indulge in guilty pleasures lol.... This time I ordered an 8" Italian cream cheese cake for my moms bday! Look how beautiful it turned out. So pretty! Ordering online was easy and swift. They called to confirm and took payment over the phone. My cake was ready for pickup on the day and time requested. The cake was flavorful however, it crumbled upon cutting :-( and my sister complained that it had a "refrigerator" taste. Mom said she like it but didn't eat much of it after the initial slice. I ended up eating most of it by myself lol.... overall, I thought it tasted good, it just wasn't a complete delight for others. But I'll be back because I enjoy their desserts... read more

I was looking for a tres leches cake. After not finding what I was looking for, I decided to try Take the Cake. It was a good decision! The cakes are very large, so I decided to try their slabs of cake ( actually large slices). I bought a hummingbird cake and a German chocolate cake. Both were good, but the hummingbird cake was gone so quickly that I only got a tiny bite. Both cakes were good, but the hummingbird was really really good. So, if you are in need of cakes, cookies and cupcakes, give Take the Cake a try. read more

Referred by a friend. I reviewed the website and found a lot of valuable information and pictures. I called to order my fiancee's 50th birthday cake. My intention was to go chocolate with some of the fancy signature decorations. But, I was informed the carrot cake was their best seller. I was actually torn between the two, so changing direction was not an issue whatsoever. I order the 6 inch, 3 layer cake with soft pink pouf decor. I was fone, or so I thought. During the night I got to thinking of the coloring (red dye) in the pink frosting. I knew she wouldn't have anything to do with it. I called the next afternoon and requested a change to a standard carrot cake. No problem, they gladly made the change. The only issue I incurred was the pricing of the cakes. The information was apparently outdated and the prices were several dollars more. The day came to pickup. I couldn't wait to see it and to see my fiancee response. The cake was very beautiful. Tall, white and trimmed with chopped nuts. We waited the suggested time for the cake to warm up (as it was previously stored in the cooler). She cut into the cake and expose three layers of moist carrots, pineapple goodness surrounded by silky cream cheese. We each took a bite. It was one of the best carrot cakes I've ever had. It was so good, I immediately picked up the phone to call Take the Cake and thank them. I wish I would have taken a picture to share. The experience overall was great and I will be back. read more

I met someone in line last visit getting a cake for their daughter who was heading to the peace corp. She said they have been coming here longer than my family and we started in 2012.

Demetrius D B.

My name is Demetrius Bryan, and this was one of the most disappointing customer service experiences I have ever had. I spent over $300 on a custom cake for my son's birthday. While the cake looked nice and tasted good, the most important detail--the name of the birthday child--was completely wrong. My son's name was not misspelled; it was simply incorrect. Unfortunately, I did not discover the mistake until the day of his birthday. At that point, there was nothing I could do. We needed a cake for the celebration, so I had no choice but to use it and address the issue afterward. What should have been a special moment became frustrating and embarrassing because a centerpiece of the celebration displayed the wrong name. When I contacted the company after the event, I expected them to take accountability and make a genuine effort to correct the situation. Instead, I was offered $20 in compensation for a mistake on a cake that cost more than $300. Frankly, I found that offer insulting. After expressing my disappointment, the offer was increased to $30, but the company remained firm that this was all they were willing to do. What bothered me even more than the compensation was the complete lack of empathy. During my conversation with a supervisor, I asked how they would feel if their own child's name had been incorrectly placed on a birthday cake and there was no opportunity to fix it before the celebration. The response I received was to "keep it pushing." That statement alone told me everything I needed to know about how this company values its customers once a problem arises. Mistakes happen in every business. What separates great companies from poor ones is how they respond when those mistakes affect their customers. Instead of taking ownership, showing empathy, or making a meaningful effort to resolve the issue, this company chose to minimize the situation and act as though it was not a big deal. To put things into perspective, their cake tasting fee is $25. They believed that a mistake involving the wrong name on a custom birthday cake was worth only a few dollars more than the cost of a tasting appointment. That speaks volumes. The unfortunate part is that I genuinely wanted to support this business. This was my first order, and I was excited to recommend them to friends and family. However, after this experience, I cannot recommend them in good conscience. If they are willing to make a mistake this significant on a child's birthday cake and then dismiss the customer's concerns afterward, potential customers should think carefully before trusting them with an important celebration. The cake may have looked good and tasted good, but customer service and accountability matter just as much. In my experience, this business failed where it mattered most. read more

Ordered custom cake and cupcakes for a baby shower I was hosting and I can't tell you how AMAZING they were! Everyone was blown away by all of the intricate details on the cake and cupcakes. I had emailed them a picture of what exactly I wanted and they matched it perfectly. I ordered 2 dozen cupcakes and I didn't have a design for them so I gave them free reign and just told them I wanted it to go with the cake and they knocked it out of the park. They were STUNNING. I received compliments all night for how yummy the cake was. Very buttery, taste similar to a wedding cake. The cupcakes were HUGE! They are like double the size of a regular cupcake. You could definitely split one in half with someone. Overall great experience with the staff at Take the Cake. Had to downsize my cake due to less rsvps and they said it was no problem. Very friendly staff with great customer service. I know who to use for my cakes and cupcakes now!! read more

I asked about ingredients and was reassured that it was nondairy. The smoothie was light and refreshing on this hot summer day. I'll definitely return to try some of the loafs, cookies, and cupcakes. They have a large selection of baked goods and even offer specialty cookies (minions / decorated items) and they do cakes!

It was fantastic n very delicious in both the smothering, creamy, pink icing and the juicy, alcohol infused cake itself. The cake and icing were very delicious, very moist and very flavorful.

This is one of the best strawberry cakes I have ever eaten along with the ones from Dessert Gallery and The Chocolate Bar. There are some other cake flavors I want to try from this establishment next time. The service was also very friendly, welcoming and efficient.

The only premade desserts featured hot dog shapes and grill themes, with no visible acknowledgment of the true meaning behind Memorial Day. While I understand celebrating with cookouts and gatherings, Memorial Day is also a time to honor and remember the fallen men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. It was disheartening not to see even a small touch of patriotism or remembrance represented in the bakery offerings during such an important weekend. The desserts themselves may have been creative, but I had hoped for something that reflected both celebration and respect for the holiday. Honestly HEB has a better assortment and more thought out.

I fought it, but I just had to see what the fuss was about. The establishment is similar to a Tiff's, with the shallow customer area, but Crumbl offers something revolutionary...kiosks for self-service. I ordered the foursome with two Chocolate Chunk and two Oatmeal Raisin. The Oatmeal Raisin had a cinnamon taste to them, which I didn't like, but the Chocolate Chunk had me whispering profanities to myself as I sat in my car. I wanted to rush back in and give the baker a hug! The cookies are almost an inch thick and the size of two cookies, so I think I got my money's worth. Sheesh! I don't think I need to tell you that I'll be back, because I know you've already seen my car out front .

We both got the s'mores. Wish we could've had it heated up, but theirs no heating options to suffice customers request.
