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

Sarah B.

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.

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!

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!

Chantilly cake

I ordered a chantilly cake for my birthday and it was ready on time and was delicious! My family kept commenting on how no one would ever know it was vegan. Well worth the hour drive to pick it up. Fair price and high quality.

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 :)

Carrot cake add caramel, blueberries and blackberries  Strawberry cake, strawberry frosting real strawberries add golden Oreos.

Customer service: 10/10 Cake: 8/10 Frosting: 1/10 We ordered the cake in a cup. Honestly it was the too sweet for me and my boyfriend. The actual cake was delicious. The technique for filling the bowl could've have been cake,frosting,cake,frosting to help with the sweetness. I ended up eating the cake without the frosting and so did he. Give it a try! Overall it was a good experience.

Cake

The CUTEST AND MOST DELICIOUS CAKE!!!! So beautifully matched the inspiration picture I sent. Not only is it so pretty, but the cake tastes soooo good!

Strawberry crunch cake

If I could give this business more stars I would. This was by far the best cake I have ever had in my life, it was so delicious and it was such great quality. The service and staff were amazing as well (professional, helpful, friendly). It is definitely worth a try, thank you Cake Bar!

In the middle there, next to Iris.

Delightful little confectionary hole-in-the-wall near the capitable. (Read that as written...it's fun...emphasis on the first syllable.) We were in town to see a few of my son's LDS mission haunts, and stopped here to say hi and taste the treats. The mini cupcake cup is small, but packs a wallop! It would have been enough of my 3 person family to share...so rich and frostingy. My lemon based cup was fantastic. Because I had my own, I really did make it last a few days. Super nice people here. We'll visit again.

Last minute changed my original decision about where to get a gluten free cake from. Was so glad I…read moredid. Spoke with manager and got a better tasting cake than expected! Manager explained pricing and helped me make a good choice. Cake was easy to pick up and perfect for the gender reveal - it was not the revelation part ;). Just appreciate the kindness and follow through would order from here again.

I placed an order a week in advance, during this time I was in communication with Morgan about cake details.Pricing, sizing and pick up times all went without a hitch so I thought the day of pick up. I get an email from Morgan five minutes before my pick up time saying that my cake is canceled...... Mind you I just got off the phone with a male saying that Morgan will be out with my cake shortly... I was very confused and felt very taken advantage of! Then came anger from what an inconvenience this has been because now I'm out money and a cake 30 minutes before my event! As you can see by the email, Morgan states she will give me a refund which she did not! So like I said, do not order from her she will scam you or like her previous orders give you something that you were not expecting! I will be reporting you to BBB and shame on you!

Overall, the cake tasted good and was light enough for our asian parents to enjoy. Also very easy…read moreto place my order over text. Docking a few stars for the following reasons: - I asked for fresh strawberries and blueberries for the filling, but there was barely any fruit inside... - Cake design was nothing like i had ordered. I actually didn't notice how odd the design was until i got home and put the cake topper on (see photo) Maybe just go with a simple design. Lastly, don't try to pick up your cake earlier than the scheduled time. First time I've experienced a cake not being made earlier than scheduled pickup--I must be spoiled. I came by 2 hrs early (at 11am) when my pickup was at 1. They were still making the cake and said to come by 1. She mentioned they get backed up on weekends and don't have a lot of staff, so I get it. Came by at 2 just to make sure it was done. Just want to call that out; don't come earlier than your scheduled pickup time.

Called in on a Friday to see if I can get a cake on Saturday night for my birthday party. I ordered…read morethe green tea fruit cake to be picked up after 4 PM on Saturday, and it was perfect! Not too sweet, proportionate cream to bread ratio, and the fruits were fresh. On another occasion, this bakery also did my sister's birthday cake which was requested ahead of time with a specific aesthetic in mind (picture attached, name scribbled out for privacy sake). Again, it was perfect! The inside of the store is pretty typical, has Korean pastries and even offers shaved ice. But as we all know, it's the inside that counts ;)

Sweet action is always a good choice. The ice cream flavors online are generally always in stock in…read morethe store EXCEPT for the fudge options. The marshmallow fluff option is a topper that gets roasted onto your ice cream. The gooey texture on the bottom layer plus the semi-crunchy hardened top layer are hard to pass up, considering your ice cream doesn't get warm/melt. The shops ALWAYS clean, the music is low enough to not be a distraction, and the employees are nice. Service isn't very fast though, so don't come in a hurry.
