We discovered Texas Star Bakery two weeks before our wedding when our original baker fell through. My fiance (now husband) was very specific about wanting an almond flavored wedding cake. When we contacted them and forwarded a picture, they provided a timely estimate within 30 minutes. The estimate was quite affordable and they were able to schedule a tasting the very next day and offered two other samples for the cake tasting as well. The staff was quite friendly. They brought out samples for my mother and I to try and left us alone to discuss each cake. While tasting the cakes, I noticed a consistent flow of customers coming in. Some were repeat customer or frequent customers based on the employees' greeting as the customers came through the door. We found the cakes to be moist and flavorful. The samples were sizable enough to take a sample to my fiance (now husband). He thought it was perfect. Wade was really helpful as he offered different pricing options for the flowers from the inexpensive to the expensive. They delivered the cake on time. It was beautiful. It was just as it was in the picture. Our guests loved it. I received several phone calls after the wedding frome guests who complimented the flavor and the moistness of the cake. We would definitely recommend them and use them again. Not only would I recommend the almond cake, but the I would recommend the lemon bread as well....delicious. read more

We ordered our wedding cake form Texas star. when we went in for the tasting the staff was helpful and attentive. We ordered a cake to feed 40 people and it came out beautiful! We enjoyed the flavor and we felt comfortable with the staff the moment we walked in. We had a great wedding and a beautiful cake to enjoy on our day. The price was very reasonable, I will be ordering more! read more

I can't review the cakes because I didn't order one. Why? Because they quoted me $300+ for a small cake for a baby shower where I told them I only expected 12-15 guests. Granted it would've included fondant, but seriously? I wasn't looking for anything too extravagant, that pricing is completely absurd. I found an alternative cake lady who could do the same exact cake for $90. What a shame. read more

Bought a pre-made cake last minute. I received great service and a cake that my picky husband LOVED. I believe the pricing was well worth the product I received. read more

Best red velvet cake I've ever tasted. They were excited to make a cake I requested about Futurama. They worked with me about pricing and completely came through in everything I wanted with the cake. Would recommend to anyone and everyone read more

We used them for our wedding cake. The cake and the consultation was great. We plan on using them again for all our future celebrations. One set back was their customer service at the actual location. Stopped in 3 times and not once did we feel we were welcomed. Maybe we hit them on off days. Great cakes and would recommend them. read more

Love these cakes, almost any flavor is great. My children and husband love their strawberry cake, but my favorite is the Italian cream. I also love their brownies, cookies and cupcakes. Prices are reasonable unless you have something that's not the usual sheet cake or round cake.If you have a really special occasion like a Bridal shower, Baby Shower or Wedding then it may be worth it to splurge on a custom Texas Star cake. read more

Love Texas Star! Their cupcakes are outstanding! Excellent red velvet, coconut and lemon, but the absolute best is the almond with raspberry filling. They are to die for!! Service is quick and friendly! They are definitely one of my favorite bakeries in DFW. read more

The place is really really good. I can't emphasize how good this place is. Specialty cakes are great. They did my wedding cake and ever since then my in-laws and family get cakes there all the time. I can't ever recall bad service. Extremely nice staff. read more

Only going by a banana-walnut loaf we received from our Edward Jones agent's ofc. It was outstanding..best I have ever had. Super moist and and light and delicious. I almost ate it all in one day and had to call them to find out where it came from. read more

Texas Star Bakery is one of the best bakeries I've ever been to. They do wonderful specialty cakes for birthdays (both kids and adults) and there other desserts are fantastic. I am not a fan of German Chocolate Cakes but I love theirs. Great frosting, moist cakes, if you have an event, I highly recommend trying it. They stay busy so plan accordingly, especially if planning a wedding read more

We've ordered a few cakes from here for my son's birthday parties. They have all been delicious, and we always have compliments.... The double chocolate cake is always a hit, which is chocolate cake with chocolate chips throughout. Very tasty! They have always been decorated very cute and served plenty more than promised. read more

Beautiful birthday cake with great taste! Thank you. Will definitely be back! It was ready on time and staff very friendly. Cake was very moist and enjoyed be all! read more

Got my hair done at Yellowbrook hair salon and decided to walk over and check out the Texas Star Bakery. Small store, but very clean and inviting. Had several cute cakes in the case, a tasting for wedding cakes was going on, and there were three people in line front of me. They were men ordering cookies and cupcakes for themselves!! I placed my order in less than five minuets. I got a red velvet cupcake, banana cream, and a raspberry bar. The cupcakes were 1.50, which is cheap!!!! I am used to paying $3-6 for cupcakes in Houston. I got all three items for under $5. Didn't eat all of them that day and the items were still delicious and fresh a day or so later. Would highly recommend this small local place!!! read more

May family has used this bakery for many occasions. We've bought cookies, cupcakes, cakes they have on hand, and custom cakes. We've never had any problems. They always taste fantastic and have great customer service. While you're there enjoy a banana pudding cupcake or fudge kiss cookie. read more

They were so awesome to let us in to buy a last minute cake about 20 minutes after they had closed. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! Update... The cakes were great. The red velvet was nice and moist (and this was on the day after we picked them up) and the chocolate was decadent. read more

Do not EVER order a cake from this place and expect it to be on time!!!!!!!!! My friend ordered a cake from here 2 weeks ago.....paid a pretty price for it too....cake was not ready when promised. She was told to come back in an hour...I took back up there and it still wasn't ready!!!!!! And there were 8 people waiting in the same situation. But of course there is a lady bragging about the place and she knows the workers and she ordered hers yesterday and she got her's first!!!!!! I guess you have to know people there in order to be taken care of. It may taste good but there are plenty of bakeries in town that taste just as good or better and can produce as promised instead of overselling. Bad bad bad business practice! Don't take orders if you don't have the staff....but they get their money and they don't care!!!!!! Ugh!!!!!! read more

I purchased a peach pie yesterday to serve to guests today. Big mistake. The peaches tasted terrible, the syrup was so sticky that it was more like gummy bears! The pastry had to be scraped off the bottom of the pie pan with a knife because it was so soggy. No one took more than one or two bites. I will be out of town Monday through Wednesday but will return what's left of the pie on Thursday. I expect to get back my entire purchase price (which was $20 by the way, for one pie). I will return to this website and let you know whether they act responsibly about what they have sold their customers. My suggestion would be to NEVER buy a pie here! read more

Went in on a whim and will back when I can! The double chocolate, red velvet, almond and banana cupcakes, double chocolate and chocolate chip cookies. All was delish! read more

This was my favorite bakery but my last two experiences weren't the same as my first five. Previously the service was excellent, the cakes were delicious and the cake decorating was superb. The last cake was great, decorating almost superb and service acceptable. This week I went in to order a cake. The service was horrific and the price quoted was triple that of the past. Time to find a new bakery! read more

I LOVE this place! What a friendly place to do business and their cake designs are amazing! When I moved here from MD 8yrs ago I went searching for a bakery similar in price and quality. There were others recommended to me but I like businesses with history. This one was it and I have ordered cakes from them for YEARS! read more

The best cupcakes DFW area....light, flavorful, delectable and delicious. Creative designs and never disappoint.

This place is has great prices. If you're looking for a good deal, fair decorating and cake that tastes pretty good, this is a good option. Their chocolate ganache is great, but their buttercream isn't so much. read more

This bakery is my favorite. I love their white chocolate cookies and brownies. I use this bakery for all my cakes. Last week they made a baby shower cake for me (beautiful) and this week, a Mother's Day cake for me (also amazing)!! read more

Texas star bakery is amazing. I ordered 1/2 a sheet and two dozen cupcakes! They were delicious and this will be replacing my fancy bakery downtown!!! read more

Something is different about Texas Star Bakery. The product I purchased does not hold up to the standard of prior years of the goods I've purchased there. Hadn't made any purchases in 10yrs. The value and quality is different. Sooooo disappointing. We did not get what was depicted online as I show. We got a Kroger confetti cake an amature could have done. Definitely, not worth the price. Nothing grand. It had a good taste, but this cake cost me $100 and it should have POPPED. It was NOT worth the price. We hated it. Yes....$100. Look at the pictures. It was the size of a loaf of bread in length. To be fair, I told the manager it was for 7 - 10 people and he suggested a 1/4 of a sheet. I was agreeable thinking we would have a lot of cake to give away. When the mother picked it up, she sent me a picture with emoji tears. I called and told him it was not what we ordered and his response was "We had to redesign it in a smaller size so it was different and the colors had to be made (?don't remember the rest of this foolish excuse)." I explained to him that he should have told me it would be different from what was online. I asked him if the mother who picked it up was satisfied. He said "she loved! it. Wrong. I got to the party and everyone was discussing the cake laughing saying "we need to go into the CAKE! business if you can get away with that!" This is ridiculous. It should not have been over $50 bucks and I'm being generous. What do you say at the counter the day of the event for a 5yr old? I don't want that? NO, but the manager didn't even offer a solution to my dismay. What would it have cost if it was a half! sheet! OMG. They must have a lot of people who don't care about the value of money and just love them for being in our neighborhood at this point. Just go to Costco for value and somewhere else for a design. That was a waste. read more

Texas Star Bakery - What I ordered as pictured online on the website. - Bakeries Near Me - Hurst, Texas

See all

I don't think you would ever be disappointed with any item here. The strawberry cupcakes are incredible ~ moist and not too sweet. Another favorite is the Italian Cream Cake, delicious! There are many tasty treats but these 2 are my favorites! The bakery is always clean and employees are friendly. read more

Disappointed with their service and communication. Will not be ordering again from here. I called on a Thursday and spoke with a woman about cake pops for daughter's farm animal theme birthday. Wanted cake pops bc it's easy for 2-year-olds than huge cupcakes. She gave me a price ($5-$6 each) and said come in the next day to look at options. I went in the next day and the man at counter (dark shaved hair) was exceptionally rude and acted like I was crazy for even asking for such a thing. Better communication between staff and improved customer service would serve this business well. They lost me as a customer! Lots of good cakes out there. read more

Ordered a cake and I could have gotten the same thing at Krogers bakery for much less than what I paid for at this bakery. I was told how it was going to be decorated a specific way and it was not what I expected based on what Valerie the person that assist me described. Totally disappointed first and last time to order a cake at this place. There is nothing to brag about in a cake at this bakery, save your money and try even Costco they have better cakes or Krogers, save your money.I beleive in commenting good or bad based on what I get and do not only post bad revfiews. I would have preferred for this to have been a great experiance, not so! Thanks read more

I've had both my brother and sister's birthday cake made there, and I can honestly say that they went above and beyond to exceed their customer's expectations. And their cupcakes are out of the world amazing! read more

The cake was ho-hum; nothing special about it. I ordered a simple white cake with a superhero theme and paid extra for cream cheese frosting. I knew it was late notice, so I didn't ask for anything fancy. I really appreciated that they took my order on such late notice, but when I picked up the cake, the cashier told me the baker said they normally don't take such orders and next time I should give them more notice. Well, if that was the case, why did they bother taking my order over the phone and tell me it wouldn't be a problem? I shouldn't be scolded for something THEY AGREED TO DO. It's not my fault they mismanaged their time! The cake was lopsided (SERIOUSLY!!!) and the decorations were nothing fancy--just streamers running down the side of the cake. To add insult to injury, I didn't even get the cream cheese frosting I paid extra for. read more

Well these guys must be doing so well that they can afford to ignore customers requests. I contacted them four times, twice by phone and twice by email, trying to get an estimate on a cake and never got a response from them. the second attempt by phone I was told to resend the email but was asked to write "first name last name cake" on the subject line to insure it wouldn't go to their SPAM folder, I did as requested and still no response. At least some kind of acknowledgement would've been appreciated. Sadly, my daughter was disappointed she didn't get her first choice in the cake she wanted, but we searched elsewhere. I will take my money somewhere that appreciates getting my business. read more

Over priced and really rude. Went in on three different occasions to look/purchase items and all I recieved was rude counter service. Once I looked for a quote on a cake for work.... outrageous price for smallest of cakes. Would not have even fed everyone at work. It was awful. Will not ever go there to buy anything ever again. read more

They made us a beautiful barbie cake for my mother, who wanted one when she was little but never got one. I picked out a very detailed dress design, and they went above and beyond to make it look stellar. My mother loved her cake, and not only did it look AMAZING, but it tasted AWESOME! We were very happy and will use them again. read more

I purchased a wedding package with a venue that was to include by wedding cake through Texas Star Bakery. I was told they were great and was very excited to have my meeting with them. The arrangement of the meeting process was an ordeal but finally we set a time. My (future) husband, mother, and I arrived at the dirty little run down looking bakery on time. For about 15 minutes I couldn't even get someone to acknowledge us. Finally, after threatening to leave I was told that someone would be right with us, but not only would it not be who I had bee corresponding with prior, but it wouldn't even be a baker or designer. Finally, this poor girl who was nothing more than an attendant sat with us. She told me to look through their photo books for what I wanted. Not surprised, I didn't find anything even remotely close to what I wanted - Please note: I wanted a very simple fall theme that wasn't cheesy or overdone. That's it - not too much to ask for right? After trying to explain to this girl what we wanted and her running to the back to ask the baker if it this or that would work, I said (again) can we please just meet with the baker? Nope. No can do. At this point I was livid and trying to stay patient and nice because it clearly wasn't this girls fault. We tasted the cake, it was fine but certainly NOTHING special. Nothing more than a grocery store cake - we were finished. All three of us had wasted over an hour of our time and the baker couldn't even take 60 seconds to introduce herself. Aside from the absolutely horrible customer service, the shop looked like a dump. It was dirty, messy, and unorganized. If you want a birthday cake, save yourself the time and go to Tom Thumb. If you want a wedding cake, do anything in your power to stay away from this place. I contacted my venue and said I would ABSOLUTELY NOT be using this place even though it meant I would be paying significantly more for my cake, Texas Star didn't even bother contacting me to apologize for the embarrassingly poor service. read more

Just finished one of their cupcakes and wish I hadn't eaten it. Too sweet!! It was an almond raspberry cupcake. Sounds good, right? But the raspberry filling was like you get in a doughnut and was not tart. Overall the cupcakes and cakes taste like an inexpensive bakery, not homemade at all. Better to go to nothing bundt cakes or Legacy Cakes in grapevine. Too bad this bakery is so close to me. read more

Not worth my time or money. It took 1 &1/2 hours to get them on the phone to place my order to only be put on hold for 5 minutes. Have ordered cupcakes twice and both times had to buy my own decorations. Over priced for plain chocolate with green icing. read more

I ordered a hummingbird cake shaped like a baseball bat and red velvet cupcakes shaped like baseballs for a baby shower and both were delicious and turned out just like the picture. I was very happy. read more

I just got a few things (haven't tasted yet) but the atmosphere and customer service ROCKS!!!! Thanks for the suggestion, Yelp!

So incredibly disappointed in this bakery. Used them for years. Got beautiful, yummmy cakes at reasonable prices...until April 2016. My daughter wanted Big Hero 6 cupcakes for her 3rd birthday so I headed to my trusted bakery. After discussing the 3 different designs (8 of each) I chose Baymax and the bad guy in frosting and Hiro in an edible print and cut out. $120 (yikes!!) later I got a really bad version of Baymax and edible prints for both Hiro and Bad guy mask. The cupcakes were dry and disappointing. And they forgot to give me the $20 fondant banner with happy birthday on it. When I called they were unapologetic and said I was welcome to come back and get it. Because I have nothing better to do on the day of my daughter's 3rd birthday party. I tried again in June for my mom's cake. I wanted just a simple 1/4 sheet cake with edible print out on top of The Haunted Mansion picture of ballerina on tight rope over alligator and then Haunted Mansion wallpaper around the sides. They wanted to charge me for 5 printed edible sheets (one for the top and 4, one for each side, for the wallpaper even though it's an 8x10 print out and only a 2.5 inch strip needed for each side) at $20 a piece in addition to the cost of the cake. So over $130 for a 1/4 sheet cake with an edible print out. No thanks! Bought a plain frosted cake, went to a cake supplies store and they printed the two edible sheets out for me and I decorated the cake myself. My total cost, cake and prints, $45. Against my better judgment I tried again today. One year later from my original disappointment. My daughter's 4th birthday cake, she wants Moana. I went in with my already purchased Moana figurines and asked for a small round, 2 tier cake. Just with blue frosting to kind of look like a waterfall in the front and green for grass around the the rest. Put the 2 figurines on top. I was told the smallest they could do was one that feeds 40 people and they will charge me wedding cake prices, $185. What?!? Seriously? I just had an Elena of Avalor Doll dress cake at Kroger for $34.99!! Way more detail in the dress than anything I asked for from TSB. I was willing to pay around $65 but $185!! That's crazy!! And I'm not convinced their cake is an better than Kroger's. I like their frosting better, but for a fraction of the cost, I'll compromise and serve Kroger cake to the little 4 year olds. They've lost my business for good. Many friends' parents have been at my parties and have purchased cakes from them. I've brought a lot of business their way. I'm voicing my disappointment here and with the other parents. Everyone can make their own decisions, but I've passed along my thoughts and experiences. read more
