Walked in and picked up a dozen cupcakes from the display case. They were both beautiful and delicious! I brought them to a party where someone described them as tasting "just like his mom used to make"... not too sweet, just right. read more

Ordered a small carrot cake, ordered a small carrot cake because I wanted to see how good their carrot cake was, didn't wanna spend a whole lot of money in case it wasn't good at all before I would buy a bigger one. Unfortunately, the cake was terrible!! I think it was made with I think Pillsberry carrot cake mix, and I think they added walnuts, raisins, it was very disappointing, the worst carrot cakecake I ever ate! When I spoke with the lady who worked there to order the cake, she said, the cake was authentic, and had all the ingredients like walnuts, raisins, pineapple, and unfortunately it had no pineapple, again worst cake I ever ate. I can't comment on their other cakes, but I'll never buy another cake from there again! read more

I purchased a cake for an event at a Masonic lodge. It was a success. A few people told me that this was the cake TDF ( to die for). One person said he didn't like cake but he really wanted a second slice after eating the first. Thank you! read more

Opened for about 30 years and I can see why. The cupcakes are delicious. Moist and very rich. The buttercream frosting is some of the best I've had. Brownies are fudge-like and topped with buttercream as well. Perfection read more

I visited for the first time shortly before Christmas to pick up holiday desserts. I did not call or order in advance. They had white, chocolate and red velvet cupcake bases, and the Santa, ornament icing, etc. decorations were well executed. They didn't have a ton of desserts on display. It seems more like a custom order ahead type of place. Service was fine. The decor was also fine. Kind of an old school vibe. It's definitely a take out place. I don't think they had any tables where you would sit and eat a dessert. The cupcakes tasted good. I suspect they would do a nice job with something like a traditional birthday cake design.

I recently purchased a cake here for my husband's birthday. He was very specific about what he wanted. This was the only local bakery that was able to make exactly what I needed. Small round cake with layers? Check. Vanilla cake and butter cream frosting? Check. Lots of buttercream frosting flowers? Check. I couldn't have been any happier on how this turned out and how many flowers she was able to get on the cake. This was one of the best cakes I had gotten for his birthday. Frosting was smooth, and cake was moist and delicious. read more

Very cute and small bakery in Newington ,Ct .I recently wanted to try a new place and this one was on my radar for a while.The customer service was really good, I got acknowledged as soon as I walked in and was helped right away to place an order.I just wanted a small simple cake for my daughter's birthday :vanilla with strawberries.They had it ready on time a couple days later and couldn't leave without trying some of their cupcakes. My daughter loved her cake (I bought and ordered some special decorations online) and we all enjoyed the different cupcakes.I would say the best part of this experience was the customer service and the feeling that I was walking into my grandparents kitchen.The smiles and warmth helped to brighten that rainy afternoon! Thank you! read more

Too expensive! They have listed hours but never seem to be open! No signs that you can see!! Very disappointed!!

The Kakery was amazing in providing my daughter with the cake of her dreams for her 5th birthday! I am so amazed that all I had to do is ask if they could make a pinky pie cake. The owner said she wasn't sure who that was but would look it up and try. Her trying resulted in a perfect cake! I couldn't be happier and I will be coming here for all of the birthdays I host from now on. The price was reasonable, the taste was delicious and fresh. Not to mention I had to change the date of the party because of rain and when I called, apologetically, the owner assured me that was fine and had the cake ready when I got there! Thank you the Kakery! read more

My mother emailed her about having a cake made for her birthday. And told her she wanted 3 layer cake with cream filling and 1 layer filling of cappuccino. She even sent her an image if the cake that she wanted it to look like. And to have it ready for noon in a week and a half later. And to contact my mom if there are any issues or questions. When I went to pick up her cake at noon it was not ready. I had to wait another half hour. And when i saw the cake I told her it was nothing like the photo. And the women told me that she doesn't do any of the toppings like that. She also claimed she never got a reference cake photo. There were too many layers in the cake. This cake was $50... I honestly could of made the cake myself and make it look better. The stars were purple/silver. But in the photo the coloring is suppose to be cream and the brown from the chocolate. The cappuccino layer was right under the frosting...not even as a cream layer to the cake. We were very disappointed in the way this turned out. The flavoring of the cake was nice but overall satisfaction and customer service wasn't great at all... the lady was also quite rude when explaining everything to me. If she didn't have time to make my mothers cake with care, she should of told us and we would of gone somewhere else. If she didn't understand the way we wanted the cake she could of contacted us, but no...nothing of that sort. Very unprofessional of them. I do not recommend. We will not be coming back here. read more

Ordered a cake and a tray of brownie/cheesecake bites for a grad party. The cake was decorated nicely and was very delicious. The bites were also very tasty and had a very pretty presentation on the tray. My only gripe was not knowing they don't accept cards. Wouldn't have been a problem at all if I had known ahead of time. Overall, I'd recommend The Kakery. It's always nice to support local businesses! read more

I am from out of state (FL). I went by other reviews and pictures from their website, I described what I was looking for and sent a picture via email, and of course last minute. These ladies made a miracle happen. The decoration was just awesome, and everyone raved about how it was the best cake and cupcakes they've ever had!! Not to sweet, just right. Thank you ladies for making my sister so happy. xoxo. I wish took a picture before she cut into it.:~( read more

I have used The Kakery for years! They have never disappointed me. Their cakes are so delicious and unlike other bakers, the cake to frosting ratio is perfection! Have you ever ordered a cake and it's all frosting! Not at The Kakery! Lots of cake and plenty of frosting and you can choose your filling too. read more

Ordered a VW custom chocolate cake with peanut butter filling. Owner was friendly, the cake was amazing and we used a groupon as well.

I would recommend this to anyone considering buying a cake. read more

The cakes are awesome. I have been using this bakery for the last four-five years and haven't been disappointed yet. Not only are the designs on the cake very nice, but the cakes are very moist. I am a fan!!! read more

I ordered cupcakes from here for a friend's baby shower that I was hosting a while back. I walked into the store expecting to see samples of what they offered or be able to walk out a cupcake to sample while I was there placing my order, but this isn't the kind of bakery that has treats to buy right away. it looks as if everything needs to be pre-ordered and you're basically walking right into their kitchen. When I picked up my order, the cupcakes were ready on time. They were decorated with baby booties and tasted delicious - the frosting was plentiful and had just the right amount of sweetness. The decorations on the cupcakes may not be as refined as other shops around the area, but if it tastes good, who cares, right? I would order again, but would probably just call and try to order over the phone rather than driving to their storefront. read more

We only get cake from Kakery. Last night they donated a cake to our NCTC fundraiser. It was so moist and flavorful. Yum!

A good place, they do cake and a few other baked goodies. I got a really nice cake from them for my sister and it was really good.

not happy with the turn out of my cake, I emailed them I picture of the design I wanted and it wasn't what i wanted, it looked like a 4 year old made the cake not professional! never ordering a cake from here again read more

I highly recommend the Kakery for your cake needs! I've been buying cakes from Kakery for years and have NEVER been disappointed. The Kakery makes quality cakes and terrific frostings and fillings. Trust me when I say these cakes are NOT anything like 'grocery store' cakes ! This is a true bakery cake! The cake is always moist and fresh and the frosting creamy and delicious! I find their prices very fair for the quality of the cake they provide! If you have never purchased a cake from the Kakery, I can tell you that when you do, you will not be disappointed! read more

Always have the most delicious cakes from here! This is a no frills kind of place, so if your looking for a posh bakery, with lots of goodies, fondant cakes and a seating area, this isn't the place for you. However, if you are looking for a really good traditional cake or cupcakes, you can't go wrong here. They are clearly focused on what they are good at, making cakes. Although, I believe they started having more things available in their case for those on-the-go. read more

Customer Service here is terrible! Called to order a cake a week ago and was told to call back 24 hours before we needed it. So when I called over 24 hours before, I was told that they couldn't accept the order since they were booked up until Easter. Rude! We will not be attempting to order again. If you're booked up, just say so ahead of time. Another bakery was easily able to accommodate the request. read more

The Kakery is wonderful as far as their cakes are concerned. However, I do have a problem with them sealing their cake box with an "O.C.D." (Obsessive Cake Disorder) sticker. Not funny! I have OCD and it is not a laughing matter. There are times it makes my life a living hell. Would you make fun of or joke about a person with another kind of illness? I don't think so. It shows you how poorly this country as a whole treats people with mental illness/disorders. Lose the sticker. read more

I went to the store to order a cake for my sons first birthday because the Kakery is contracted with the birthday venue. I have had the cakes previously and they are not any better than a grocery store but they are more expensive. I do not recommend you walking in the shop as the owner will act like you are bothering her. The customer service is awful. We went in excited to discuss a birthday cake and left feeling upset. I went straight to price chopper and the cake maker there took her time to talk to us and figure out a special cake even though she was in the middle of making a cake. We will take a monetary credit from the birthday venue to forgo using the Kakery. Needless to say I will never go there again and I do not recommend this cake shop. read more

We tried the cupcakes from the Kakery using the coupon that was published in the Hartford Courant. I'm glad we didn't pay for them because I've had better store bought cupcakes than these cupcakes that were actually from a bakery. The bakery itself is very dimly lit and only had a few (MAYBE 3) cupcakes in the display case. When we tried to actually purchase cupcakes in addition to the free ones, we were told that we couldn't buy any unless we had pre-ordered them. So certainly don't walk in there expecting to purchase cupcakes without pre-ordering. The cupcakes themselves were dry and Stop & Shop makes better cupcakes than the Kakery if you're going for a "store-bought" cupcake taste. While I certainly didn't expect the Kakery's cupcakes to stand up to cupcakes I've had from Georgetown Cupcake or various other bakeries, I never thought they would be as disgusting as they actually were! Let's see how long this review lasts seeing it was somehow removed from Yelp before! I think people should be able to see what other peoples' opinions are without just highlighting the positive ones. read more

I wanted to take the time to recommended The Kakery in Newington! They made this graduation cake for me when I needed a cake last minute. I called on Wednesday, and the cake was ready for pickup on Saturday morning. We don't like fondant, so that was something we were searching for. We got yellow cake with fresh strawberries and whipped cream frosting. It was DELICIOUS and The Kakery will be our new go-to bakery. I still can't believe they were able to make the cake in such short notice during graduation season! read more

Ordered a custom birthday cake today for a little boys 2nd birthday. I needed a custom cake on a short notice - for the next day!. I thought it was impossible and after calling several places, that all wanted a 2 week notice, I was about to give up and go to a local grocery store. Then I called the Kakery and they took my order and promised me it would be ready the next day for pick up. I can't thank them enough! And I'm sure it will be tasty based on all the reviews. read more
