    Ordered a custom cake for a friend's birthday and loved it! The ordering process online was smooth and simple. The cake was a good size for the price we paid. The strawberry cake was perfectly moist and flavorful. We paired it with the chocolate frosting and the combination of flavors and level of sweetness was so yummy. We are adding this place to our top bakeries for sure. The staff is super sweet and it's helpful that they carry birthday candles, cards, stickers and other packaged sweets and gifts.

    Cake of the month (peppermint)

    I love this spot so much! It's vegan, mostly nut free and with gluten free options. Choose your cake flavor, icing, and up to 3 toppings for one price. The options are endless and I promise you won't miss the dairy. The cake is incredibly moist and with so many great flavors to choose from Street parking only (paid in 13th st but free on the streets that run perpendicular)

    We did a lemon cake with blackberry compote. It was so good!

    This was one of the best cakes I have ever had! I was a little nervous because I didn't book a consult, but these bakers are so talented they pulled it off perfectly. Pickup was easy, and they applied the inspiration picks so well. I ordered this for a baby shower and everyone loved it. Thank you to Angie and all the talented bakers at The Cake Bar!

    Funfetti cake
    Mai L.

    This flashed up in my social media. It's on Colfax and we were lucky to find a parking spot right in front of the shop. We wanted to go after dinner one night but it closed at 8 so we went mid-day the next day. What's nice for next time is it comes with a lid so easy to grab and eat later if you want to have an after dinner treat. We decided, heck, let's just eat cake for lunch. I love the concept of building your own cupcake cup essentially. Have never heard of this idea so had to try it. They have SO many topping choices that it took us a minute to decide. And lots of good cake flavors. I ended up getting a medium (which I would've been okay to have a mini). I got Funfetti cake (it was delicious). I got strawberry frosting, lemon lavender drizzle, pretzels, and blackberries. You choose the cake, the frosting, and 3 toppings. I also got an oatmeal cream pie. Ok... so if you love cake/cupcakes - this was delicious! I want to go back and try different flavors. The oatmeal cream pie was also SO GOOD! I love this small local business so I'll definitely be back and they do full cakes so great place to also support and order from.

    This was a surprise visit after getting ice cream at Sad Boy. What a yummy surprise to find this adorable bakery next door!!

    This place is INCREDIBLE and one of a kind. The concept is similar to Cold Stone, but in cake form. You choose your cake batter flavor, frosting flavor, and then whatever toppings you'd like. The people working were so friendly and super helpful. They also had multiple gluten free options! There's not a ton of room inside to sit and eat, but you can get your cake cup to go and walk around the neighborhood. Parking can be a little challenging in this neighborhood, all street parking.

    Such a neat concept! Perfect for when you're craving cake, but don't want to buy an entire one. I got the strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream, and it includes 3 toppings, so I chose the lemon lavender drizzle, fresh strawberries and toasted coconut flakes. I was really impressed! The cake was delicious and ultra moist. The buttercream was a bit sweet for my taste, but that's subjective. The toppings really pulled everything together and overall it was a neat experience. Friendly staff, quick service. It is a small shop so be aware of that if you're coming with a group! Definitely a to-go spot for when those sweet tooth cravings hit.

    BYO Mini Cake
    Holly K.

    My friend found this spot for us to try on our Denver trip. I hadn't heard of this place so I was so glad she added it to our list to visit! The staff member was one of the happiest, most positive people I'd interacted with in a long time. Just talking with them made me happy too, and I didn't even have the cake yet! I got a mini BYO cake: yellow cake, maple vanilla frosting, & peanut butter cookie crumbles/macadamia nuts/blackberries. Cake was super moist. Frosting was perfectly mapley & a perfect thickness! I wish I got more on cookie crumbles because the bite I had was so yummy. The berries and macadamia nuts were good too. Such a fun treat! The mini was a perfect size. After my friend and I ordered our cake, we found out that we could've chosen two cake bases- so pro tip if you want to have two different cakes, just ask! The shop had examples of their beautiful full cakes on display. There is a small window bench if you want to eat your cake there.

    Banana split cupcake and German chocolate cupcake

    Delicious cupcakes and s'mores cookie! Bought the banana split and German chocolate cupcakes. Yummy frosting exactly like I want it and moist cake. Didn't plan to buy a cookie but when I saw that they were homemade and soft, I couldn't resist. Highly recommend cupcakes and cookies too. Great and quick service.

    Smores mini cake cup
    Amy B.

    Having been to City O City and Off the Bottle Refill Shop a few times, I had been meaning to try this all-vegan cake bar on the same block for a long time! I got the new smores flavor mini cake cup and someone else in the store was buying the birthday cake pictured below. The cake cup was so sweet and delicious, a truly perfect pick-me-up. The staff member was super friendly and told me that she had loved going there so much that she had to join the team! The store itself is small and super cute, with merch like shirts, totes, stickers, and more. It's a carry-out place, and I can't wait to order a cake in the future, and I'll most certainly get desserts here for my future wedding . Give this place your business!! 10/10 would recommend!

    Erin H.

    This cake was so yummy!!! Crumbly but not as bad as many gluten free vegan cakes/pastries are. The strawberry layer was my fav. The aesthetic was on point with my Lover themed bachelorette party (though my friend who organized was disappointed they added so much yellow when she sent them inspo clearly lacking yellow, so maybe be super duper specific to make sure it comes out just how you want.) can't comment on pricing but was ready for pickup right when we stopped by the place!

    Love these orange slice earrings!

    Awesome little place! My daughter loves the GF cupcakes and they sell some pretty cool jewelry and other stuff. the service is always so friendly, one of the best in town!

    Customer cake cups!

    A friend and I were craving dessert after teaching a workout. What a concept! You pick out your cake, frosting, and toppings. They also sell tons of fun things like ice cream, pastries, etc. I had yellow cake with cookies & cream frosting, caramel, graham cracker, and oreo cookie pieces. This is not a dry cup of cake. It tastes almost as though it is mixed with frosting, similar texture to the inside of a cake pop. It's smooth, moist, creamy, it melts in your mouth. I'm obsessed. My friend opted for more fruity options, lemon base, strawberry buttercream, lemon lavendar drizzle, strawberries, and strawberry oreo pieces. She has a ton of allergies so it was so nice to see a place using allergen friendly ingredients. It's a smaller shop, minimal seating but the bench by the window is comfy, super colorful and cute vibe. Both individuals that were working were so kind & helpful! We really enjoyed our trip here and will be back. Only downside is street parking but hey, that's downtown. Support small business! Support small, female owned, black owned, lgbtq+ owned business! Happy to see some dessert variety here in Denver. Vegan, lots of gf options :)

I had it saved but couldn't quite remember why...until we turned the corner and saw a line out the door around noon on a Sunday. Normally that might be a dealbreaker, but once we saw the food coming out, we were all in, it looked way too good to pass up. The menu is stacked: everything from sweet pastries to savory sandwiches and even pizzas on what looked like fresh, fluffy focaccia. I went with the prosciutto sandwich (prosciutto, cheese, pesto on focaccia), and it was incredible--simple, fresh, and packed with flavor. My girlfriend had the ham sandwich on a baguette, which was just as good. We were also tempted by the turkey and some seasonal options, so we'll definitely be back to try more. We couldn't leave without grabbing a couple pastries. The almond croissant was a hit (my girlfriend saved it for the next morning and loved it), and the standout for me was the cinnamon white chocolate cookie--kind of like a snickerdoodle but with white chocolate chips. Easily a top tier cookie. Between the quality, variety, and how clearly everything is made with care, this place jumped straight to the top of my list. Worth the wait, worth the hype, and absolutely worth a return trip.

The fruits sandwich made with shokupan bread was light and fresh, an excellent pick-me-up. This is a standard Japanese snack done beautifully.

The beef curry wrapped in dough, crusted in panko crumbs, and deep-fried was excellent. The curry itself had real flavor and zest, and the surrounding crust was delicious too.
