We used That's The Cake for our wedding and could not be happier with how it all turned out. They are a grandmother/grandson duo who own their adorable little shop in Arlington. I had let the initial quote expire because wedding planning is not my strong suit and Nancy was so great helping me get it sorted out. We set up a tasting which is held in the shop with Monte. He walked us through each flavor and helped guide us though the process. It was so much fun, like treat tasting with an old friend. He works really hard making cakes all day and we appreciated him taking his time personally to do a tasting. Some shops just send you samples and call it a day. We chatted about horror movies and sweet treats and it was great. We ended up choosing Monte's favorite which was an almond cake with a raspberry filling and it was a huge hit. Some of my guests who I would consider desert connoisseur's were particularly impressed. Side note: I really liked the Mexican Chocolate and Caramel cake as well but the final choice was left up to my groom. When discussing the look of the cake we let Monte know we were having a moody wedding and the florist would provide flowers. He suggested some black marbling along the bottom to glam it up and it turned out perfect. Unfortunately I was not on site for delivery so I couldn't tell him in person how amazing it was but I was truly blown away with how it turned out. If you're looking for a beautiful cake from a family owned small local business- hit up Monte and Nancy! read more

To start, the cake tasted amazing! We got a red velvet cake for my daughter's 21st birthday. My only complaint is they didn't do what we discussed. I sent in a pic for a quote but over the phone I requested all black icing and glitter. He said I had to pay an extra $5 for glitter and I said that was fine. We get the cake and it's trimmed with pink, hearts added and sprinkles instead of glitter. Overall, I would still order from them again but ask them to read back my requests. read more

I really wanted to love this bakery but the cakes were a bit too dense in my opinion. The frosting on the cupcakes was also not very tasty. I will say that the owner was delightful. And the displays inside the bakery show that she does amazing decorative cakes for weddings, parties, and events. The displays are beautiful!!!!! But the individual cupcakes were just okay. read more

Way expensive for what you're getting. Cream cheese butter cream taste like buttercream. But it's cute.

Ordered online for the birthday flavored cake with buttercream frosting. I chose purple for the details and lavender for the cake color. Cake came out beautifully and everyone enjoyed it very much. My only qualm is their clunky old fashioned website. Its a little annoying to use. Also, "birthday cake" and "wedding cake" are vague descriptions for cake flavors and I'm sad I didn't see an option to add a filling. Still worked out really well and if it wasn't so far for me, I might return in the future. read more

We're such huge fans of That's The Cake! My husband has tried several goodies from them -- cupcakes and cakes and cookies, he's loved them all. And I, being gluten free, had a beautiful birthday cake made by That's The Cake recently, and it was AMAZING y'all. The cake was simple... vanilla bean with a vanilla buttercream frosting. 3 layers. Plenty of frosting. Covered in beautiful purple flowers and edible glitter. What more could a girl want? The cake was fresh and the flavor was perfection. Being a gluten free cake, it was more dense and heavy than what you'd probably imagine, but the texture was still wonderful. I applaud this bakery for making fantastic gluten free products. I don't have to feel left out when it's cake time!! Amazing, friendly staff here. Drop in for a random delicious goodie, or order what you need. I promise That's The Cake will make are your baked-goods-dreams come true for a great price! read more

This cute little cake shop has been here around 7 years and I never knew about it! It's definitely hidden on a side street off the highway. It's owned by a grandma and her grandson. I got to meet both and they are super nice and helpful. The cakes are beautiful and prices are affordable. They can get as creative as you need. They have many cakes on display, but are open to doing whatever deign you can think up! I sampled some of their baked goods. The key to their pre-made goodies is to get there early! They seem to sell out fast! Lots of cake balls, all the chocolate chip cookies, and some of the cake by the slice were gone! So get there when they open or shortly after. I tried there valentine sugar cookies and a chocolate fudge cupcake. Their sugar cookies are clearly made with lots of butter, they were soft, thick, very sweet, and had valentine sprinkles throughout. I liked the light crunch the sprinkles gave to the cookies. I have tired their chocolate chip cookies and I actually liked the sugar ones better. I was surprised by this, bc chocolate chip is my absolute favorite. The chocolate fudge cupcake was really pretty. It had lots of frosting, drizzled in chocolate, and sprinkles on top. The frosting made cupcake a little top heavy! You will love these if you love frosting, buttercream to be exact. The cake was nice, light, and moist. I have also tried their cake balls before and I LOVE them! They are so good. The chocolate one is the best! If you live in the area, come try out this hidden family owned bakery! read more

The shop is located in a small strip mall far away from major shopping. You could easily miss it! It is small inside, with only one table which seems like the meeting table for ordering wedding cakes. They do have a Keurig for customers to use! When I stopped by around 11:30am most of their display was empty for cupcakes and cookies. They did have three cakes to choose from: German chocolate, strawberry, and rose water and vanilla. I chose the German chocolate because they are known for being rich, chocolatey, and full of moist flavor. I ordered a slice in a to-go container and I asked for a fork so I could try it immediately in the car. Props to anyone who can wait until they get home. Unfortunately, their german chocolate cake is not decadent. The frosting is light in chocolate flavor and heavy on the chemical tasting powdered sugar. The cake sponge itself was okay, but not to the moistness level I expect for a german chocolate cake. Also, the coconut was severely lacking with only one very small and thin layer. Think of this cake as more of a plain chocolate cake. Overall, the cake here is just okay. It's nice to have a local bakery to walk in and get a slice simply for convenience and knowing that it was baked fresh. read more

First off, I love local bakeries! There is nothing like getting a little slice of heaven, knowing that you are supporting a small, local business while enjoying your goodies. ;) I was able to try this bakery through a Yelp event, and I would definitely come back to try out some more cake flavors! I had their Valentine's cupcake with whipped cream frosting, and my husband had their sugar cookies. The cupcake was moist, and the icing was delicious, not too sweet. The cake itself could do with a little more flavor, but overall it was pretty dang delicious. The cookie was not for my taste buds, as I like gooey, chewy cookies that aren't too sweet. This cookie was like solidified sugar to me, lol. My husband, however, really enjoyed it, so to each their own! I love the cake displays, there were some weird, wonderful, and awe-inspiring cakes in there and it made for a good ambiance. read more

That's The Cake Bakery is a fairly decent "hole in the wall" Bakery. The staff was very warm and friendly. The manager on duty took the time to tell me a little more about the Bakery since it was my first time in. I stopped by first thing in the morning yesterday. Unfortunately, they did not have any cupcakes ready so I opted for a slice of German Chocolate cake and a cookie. The German chocolate cake did not have the usual overwhelming chocolate taste which was actually fine with my taste buds. The cake was moist and the icing had a great consistency. My only issue is that there really wasn't that much coconut filling. When I think of German chocolate cake, I think of multiple layers of coconut filling and/or more coconut filling on the top of the cake. I was not a fan of the cookie. It was really dry and hard. The flavor was good, but the consistency was definitely off. I will make an effort to stop by again maybe later on in the day. I'd like to try their cupcakes and see what other flavors they have to offer. read more

I stopped in a few months ago for elite week and got to sample a few things. I had drafted a review but I guess COVID19 got me all distracted and I never posted this one. My overall impression is 3 1/2 stars based on the things I tried, but based on what I heard about them from other customers I'm pretty comfortable rounding up for this local business. It's not easy to find, located in a corner shopping center on a high hill against a residential looking area with a tiny sign. GPS is the only reason I successfully got there! I immediately noticed the beautiful cake displays and then noticed there was only one table, so you can't really eat here. At the time of my visit, it was occupied by someone doing a tasting. She shared some past experiences with me and raved about offerings I didn't have an opportunity to try, specifically custom cakes, which I think is their forte. Local fan bases are a great sign! The gentleman at the counter was very kind and accommodating and the small cases had plenty of eye candy. We left with a slice of strawberry jam cake, a wedding cake cupcake and a chocolate chip cookie. My first impression was the icing was much too sweet and the cake wasn't moist enough. Upon further reflection and sampling I have decided that the ingredients are good quality, but you should probably eat them right away, so that's good to know if having them design a cake for an event. In addition to being too sweet, the icing was also too abundant for my taste. I'm sure someone with a superior sweet tooth will enjoy it more than I did. The jam was absolutely delicious! If the strawberry jam cake had a little less icing and three times as much jam, it would have won me over in one bite. I didn't find the wedding cake cupcake to taste like wedding cake but this was very moist and delicious cake, just too rich for my taste with all the icing. But this really showed me their cakes are moist from the get go. The chocolate chip cookie was excellent with a nice, soft texture- perfect! They also had cake pops, a macaron and sheet cake there on my visit, which was a Saturday morning. Based on that customer and other reviews I think your best experience with them will be based on a custom cake for a birthday or other event. It won't prevent me from trying more of their sweets if I happen to be in the area though. read more

There's a queen that dropped an infamous line about cake, can't remember what she said exactly. She probably bragged about how moist and rich in flavor they are. Very much like That's The Cake's Banana Split cupcake. Imagine banana nut bread without the nuts and bread (basically banana cake) topped with a cherry and whipped cream, drizzled with chocolate, and stuffed with a banana slice and more of that delicious whipped cream! It was a little dense/stiff for my liking but it was true to flavor and presented beautifully. Cookies are crumbly. I prefer my cookies chewy and a little undercooked in some cases with a ton of moisture. These cookies were the opposite, but worth $1 and had good flavor. Along side cupcakes, this bakery features cookies like oatmeal and chocolate chip, cake balls, cake by the slice, macaroons, brownies and full blown decorative cakes! The owner, Nancy, is super sweet and smiled the entire time we spoke. Customer service is enough to have me return. She has does a ton of wedding cakes, even featured in D Magazine, D Weddings and more. You'll be mesmerized for sure! They have this cute little complimentary coffee station that was perfect for me on this cold, wet Tuesday. The Keurig has choices for coffee and hot chocolate. Yes, please! Oh yeah... "Let them eat cake"! read more

Called to inquire about a ready made 6in cake. The gentleman that answered (forgot his name) told me that they did have one vanilla cake already iced and ready to go. I began to ask about getting it decorated for a man and he told me they can put a blue border, I asked would that be a ribbon or, and before I could finish, he cut me off and said no just icing. I began to ask was there anything else I could pay for as far a decoration and was cut off yet again. He was very impatient and rude. I don't care how good the cakes are if the customer service sucks..so does the product. read more

Definitely not impressed. Went today to grab some cookies and a cup cake. I had high hopes as when I pulled up and saw that it was such a "hole-in-the-wall" I typically find the best sweets at places like this. The cookies were completely awful. I got one sugar, one m and m, a snickerdoodle, and an oatmeal. The oatmeal had a good taste but all the cookies were crunchy, tasted days old....they had little "life" in them. The cupcake was nothing special either. The frosting tasted like what you'd get out of a plastic store bought container. Overall, I won't be returning. read more

Booking marking for the fall Yelp event! Thank you for participating! I can't wait to come try all your sweets!

As someone who loves cake, think Vince Vaughan in Wedding Crashers, I know a thing or two about good cake!!! So when this boutique bakery opened I was excited to try it out. I have to tell you, this bakery is amazing! As soon as I walked in, the smell of freshly baking cakes and cookies was in the air. I tried the Yellow butter cake with chocolate frosting cupcake and it was amazing! My wife had the wedding cake cupcake which I also sampled and deemed it fantastic. My daughter had a fresh M&M cookie and was delicious as well. Prices were affordable with cupcakes for under $4 and $1 cookies. They also had cake balls and Texas sheet cake too. All of it looked delicious and the service was courteous and quick. They had wedding and special occasion cakes on display and they were decorated extremely well. All in all, if you have a wedding, anniversary, or special occasion coming up and you need a cake, or if you are in the mood for a delicious treat because you are craving something sweet, look no further than this amazing locally owned bakery! Good job! read more

Absolute perfection. We got our first cake here back in 2018 for our daughter's graduation dinner and have been faithful customers ever since.
