HOLY MOLEY. I'm in love. They have cake in a cup. I'm currently writing this at almost 11pm and dreaming about finishing mine... but it's late and bad for you, but one more bite won't hurt ... lol This place is a hidden gem! I'm so happy that I learned about this place during the bakery crawl. It is a must find place and honestly I don't even need a birthday cake for my 36th. Give me a cake and a cup that thing is perfect. Stick a cute little candle on it so we don't burn down the neighborhood and call it a day.. However, if you are looking for birthday cakes, wedding cakes and much more, this is the exact place to go. The icing isn't too sweet. It's absolutely perfect and the cake is moist. I have the chocolate chip cake... and yeah, I said it moist that's exactly how a cake should be!!! The workers were very sweet and it is a cute little shop. That is a must try place. read more

The Cakery - I couldn't stop.. jk But this is the size of the cake in a cup it a layer some icing and the bottom Layer of more cake.. - Desserts Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

So good, did my wedding. Still get cake from here any excuse we can come up with. They even let me look in the kitchen on how it works, very friendly and seem to love what they do. read more

The Cakery is known for many delicious wedding and party cakes, but my personal fav is the Cake in the Cup. It's a simple idea of taking the unused cake parts and extra icing and repacking it. If you love cake, but don't need a full size one for yourself, then stop in and grab a cake in a cup. The flavors vary depending on what they made that day, so call ahead if you're looking for something specific to see if it's on hand. For other cookies and cake desserts, it's best to order ahead of time because they do not have many options to grab and go. read more

Their cookies were out of this world! I ordered some simple sugar cookies online for an event and it was a very easy process. I believe they offer more specific designs vs the traditional frosted sprinkle. I was in a bit of a time crunch so this ended up working perfectly. The cookies themselves were delicious and the frosting was light and fluffy. The guests of the event really enjoyed them. The space itself is so cute and nestled in the heart of Dogtown. They offer beautiful cakes as well. Check them out! read more

Delicious!!! Chocolate Chip Pie & the cake version are must haves! Great for absolutely any occasion.

Best bakery in town! Highly recommend the cookie cake. I have ordered for countless celebrations; it is super tasty and extremely reasonable price. Everyone always raves about it when eating it. The cakes are really good too. I love the ability to customize and the handwriting is always so elegant. The bakery itself is essentially a checkout counter. Super cute interior and the staff is always so friendly! Would definitely consider ordering through the Cakery for any upcoming celebration! read more

A Baker's Delight -- The Cakery Never Misses I'll start by saying this: I'm usually the one baking the cakes. I love to bake and take a lot of pride in making my own desserts. But every baker knows that sometimes life gets busy and you simply don't have the time. And when that happens? There is only one place I trust -- The Cakery. Their Bake & Take cakes are absolutely out of this world. Beautifully made, perfectly balanced, and consistently delicious. I've picked one up on several occasions and every single time it has been a complete showstopper. The flavors are wonderful, the cakes are fresh, and they somehow manage to taste like they were made in a friend's kitchen with a whole lot of love. And the staff? Absolutely adorable. So warm, gracious, and genuinely kind. You walk in and immediately feel welcomed, which makes the experience even sweeter. For someone who usually insists on baking their own cakes, that's saying something: When I don't have time to bake, I trust The Cakery every single time. A true baker's delight. -- Tedd read more

Best cake. The right taste with not too sweet. And perfection moist. We got two just in the past two months and both were flavorful and a party fav. Strawberry and the chocolate. read more

I've purchased Cakery cakes from Straub's before, but this time I bought directly from the actual bakery and was completely blown away by the selection. They even offer same-day ordering and customization, which is impressive. The vanilla bean cake with vanilla buttercream is hard to beat. Highly recommend. read more

Wow! So this was place was recommended by my HR manager and she suggested we try it for our birthday celebrations we do each month. I opted to get the three cakes chosen below, the French vanilla ready-to-go, the chocolate chip ready-to-go, and the Christmas confetti ready-to-go. Each cake is customizable, is 9 inches and serves approx. 10. Ordering was simple as it's all done online; however, if you do have questions, you'll need to call and leave a vm. Other than that, it was a seamless process. Now to the cakes.... They're delicious! Absolutely delicious! I'm going to use a word that makes most people cringe and it's moist. The slices I had were moist, fluffy, airy and all around decadent. There were at least 5 people who all said, "mmmmmm, this is GOOD!" At the same time, so if you have that many people oohing and awing over cake, you're def. doing something right. I can't wait to try them again! read more

We used the cakery for our wedding cake and they did an incredible job! We got so many compliments and were able to customize lots of different flavors for the different tiers of the cake. Would recommend booking them early as soon as you have your wedding date as they are very popular - and for good reason! read more

Best cake in stl!! I used The cakery for my wedding and they were very easy to work with and achieved my exact vision of what I wanted! In addition, to the looks the cake itself is even better! We did a custom three tier wedding cake with three different flavors with vanilla buttercream (chocolate, caramel, and golden yellow). We saved our top tier for our one year anniversary and it was still AMAZING!! I've heard people say that it's not good a year later but not ours! Since my wedding we have been back many times. I ordered my mother in law one of there ready-to-go cakes last month. She loves chocolate so I ordered the triple chocolate ready-to-go cake. It was a single layer chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream. I'm not the biggest chocolate person but I was obsessed! It was so good and wasn't overly rich like some chocolate cakes are. They also added words and gold sprinkles for free! There were additionally options, that's just what I picked. The online ordering system was really easy to use and pick up went smooth. They brought the cake to my car. One of my other favorites is the cake in the cup. It's 1 pint of cake which seems like a lot but it's so good you can't stop eating it. I usually buy one golden yellow and one chocolate and then mix it together and give my mom one. I'd definitely recommend the cakery for all your cake needs! read more

This was the best cake and cupcakes delicious the best people to work with. I'll do it again!!

The Cakery offers a seamless online ordering experience. I ordered a cake for my mom's birthday via their website, and was able to pick it up easily on the arranged day. They even waited to ice the "Happy Birthday" portion so they could clarify the wording with me first. Will definitely order again! I usually grab these cakes from Straub's, but I had such a pleasant experience in-shop and online that I will do this moving forward. read more

Amazing cake and amazing service. They were able to support me in getting a cake the day of. Thank you for making our day special. read more

3 stars, because when I ordered one of their generic birthday cakes the recipients really loved everything about it. However, I also asked them for a birthday cake for a person who is very ill and has difficulty swallowing. Their wish was a birthday cake from the cakery. I was told that they cannot do anything special, but that I could buy one of their plain cakes, take off the frosting myself and then put on whipped cream. Uhm, no, thank you. That left a bitter taste for me (no pun intended). read more

Still 5 stars! We order a cake each year for my daughter's birthday. This year, we ordered a Frozen II themed cake. Because of COVID-19, they had to cancel the custom order but was able to sell one of their single layer cakes. We couldn't let a year go by without a cake from The Cakery! They put some sprinkles on it and wrote "happy birthday" to make it as special as possible. I was impressed with the procedures to ensure a contact free pick-up. They were friendly as always. If you do not need a cake, it's worth a stop to get a "cake in a cup" to enjoy! This is the best cake in St. Louis. read more

Needing a Birthday cake in a hurry... I Yelp local bakeries near my work and this little gem pops up. They have 9" cakes to go... Perfect. I ordered a Chocolate Chip Cake..but they needed to ice it first.. fresh baked today!! The Baker iced it and added some melted ganache with some chocolate chips and wrote my Birthday message!!! Everyone was so helpful... The prices are a little steep. $28 for a single layer cake???? I was told that Chocolate Chip was an excellent choice... Belive me..it was. I am not sure I have ever had a Chocolate Chip cake..but I believe it maybe my favorite now. They make cakes for all occasions.. and they even put the excess cake in plastic containers to purchase if you need that cake fix!!! read more

I have gotten quite a few cakes over the last few years from The Cakery. This year I opted for the lamb Easter cake. Outstanding is not enough. It was quite the hit! Everyone asked where it was from. The cakery never disappoints and it always has you ( me) coming back for more. read more

We went here for a last minute birthday cake for our 1 year old. The options were not too limited considering we showed up 24 hours before our small party. We bought a French vanilla cake with vanilla icing. One of the bakers wrote a happy birthday message on the cake for us. The cake turned out to be a big hit. The icing was as delicious as I expected. I heard from other people that have bought cakes here that they are great and I agree! I will certainly go back here for my future cake and cookie needs. The folks that work here are super helpful too. The prices were also reasonable especially when you're getting a high quality product. I love the Cakery! read more

It was time for a work birthday party and we discussing cake. One of my co-workers, said how about trying, "The Cakery". I immediately light up and said, YES! YES! I grabbed my smartphone, and showed them reviews and pictures on Yelp to sell them on the idea of ordering the cake from, The Cakery. My enthusiasm sold them and we ordered the birthday cake. The honoree is a big candy lover, so we selected one topped in a variety of sweet treats. The cake was a two tiered chocolate separated by a vanilla butter creme. The top was close to a Tiffany Blue dripping down the sides. Beautiful presentation. Our birthday boy loved his cake and my co-workers who had never experienced, The Cakery were totally impressed. They loved the rich flavor and how moist the cake was. This was a total win. Perhaps we'll celebrate the next birthday with cupcakes from, The Cup. I already started singing the praises of their cupcake store. Would I go again? Yes, I always love a good cake. When: October 7, 2017 Why: Birthday Celebration read more

Mostly a custom cake shop, but I stopped in for a quick dessert and found out that they also have "cake-in-a-cup's" and a variety of small cakes available for take out as well. The small cakes have about 10 slices in them, and there is about the equivalent of 2 slices of cake in a cake-in-a-cup. I got a yellow cake cake-in-a-cup and I was very impressed, as it was was very moist and rich. read more

Wonderful service and communication regarding our online order and change in our pick up time! Delicious and beautiful cake; our fave in our family's taste-test for potential wedding cake bakery! Buttercream was out of this world good; sweet and yummy but not sickly sweet. Would definitely recommend! read more

Since my last review I've tried to get cake from other well-known stl places but none were as quick, kind, and simply delicious as the cakery. Im not sure why I originally gave it 4/5 stars when this is clearly a 5/5. Im not a cake person at all - this is the only birthday cake I've ever enjoyed. From now on I will only go to the cakery for cakes! read more

Best cake in St. Louis, no debate. Cake is so moist and the butter cream frosting is out of this world delicious. And their design abilities are off the chart amazing. I have given them pictures of decorations from last 4 parties I threw, and they have replicated them on the cakes perfectly. I attached a couple for reference, tiki one is especially outstanding. Book in advance as they fill up quick on orders. read more

My new Go-To. The friendly staff at the Cakery made the process of getting a custom cake super easy. They were helpful, creative, and make a PERFECT cake. The decor, even without the use of fondant, was much better than I was expecting. I'd give more stars if I could. For picture reference, my cake was a custom cake based off the video game Portal. read more

It is a full week before Christmas. I went to The Cup in the CWE wanting to order a simple red velvet cake with cream cheese icing and Christmas sprinkles for Christmas Eve. I was informed that the only way to obtain this "custom" cake was through the Cakery, the Cup's custom bakery. Drove over to the Cakery on Tamm Ave, where I was told that, no, actually, they are NOT taking any custom orders "so close to Christmas." Is red velvet with cream cheese really considered custom? Is it really that difficult to let the staff at all locations know that there are no more custom orders before Christmas? So even though I would much rather support a small business in the city, I can't because they are disorganized as well as limited in what they have available. It's too bad, because a few minor management changes would make all the difference for this company. Sadly, this type of experience is why people end up going to Dierbergs, Schucks or Straubs! read more

Most delicious cake ever. I get excited at weddings if I know the cake is from the cakery. The vanilla based cakes with fruity jam inside - my fav - not sure if this is a usual flavor or just something they do for weddings but it's great. read more

Great does not sufficiently describe the quality of the cake we ordered from The Cakery! I ordered a 2 tiered baby shower cake with chocolate cake/chocolate ganache top layer and vanilla cake/raspberry filling bottom layer. From the time I placed my order, they communicated with me via email about every detail. I sent them a picture I found and they absolutely nailed it! Also, when I entered the store, I was very impressed with the how spotless their establishment was. I will definitely be recommending The Cakery to my friends and family! Thank you! read more

If you're like me and not great at planning ahead, ordering a custom cake a month in advance is probably not going to happen. But the Cakery saved the day for my mother in law's birthday! I was able to order a ready-made caramel cake a few days ahead of time, pay for it online, and pick it up the day of the celebration. They even customized it with writing for me, and I had the option to add candles, toppers, sprinkles, and more. The cake itself was one of the best cakes I've ever had. The texture and flavor were unreal, and they nailed the proportion of cake-to-frosting. I'm already thinking of excuses to buy my next cake from them. Just a really fabulous experience from start to finish. read more

Amazing cakes thought they were closed permanently but I see maybe they are not. Andrea does amazing decorations.

Best wedding cake EVER! It was perfect, exactly what we wanted and I got so many compliments from our guests about how light, delicious, and moist our cake was. It was so beautiful and the cakery was extremely accommodating of my very specific taste. I had a standard package for my cake, and I had asked if I could alternate standard frosting designs every other tier - which they accommodated! Thank you! I would definitely recommend the cakery to any bride to be looking for a show stopper wedding cake! read more
