It's upsetting to write this review because I have used the Novel Baker in the past and they did do…read morea good job, but I'm not sure if they just don't have the capacity. We ordered from Alexis, the owner at the bakery, last September and my husband spoke to her over the phone, placed the order, and we picked it up with no issues. I reached out via their website 3 weeks ago to get 2 smash cakes, 24 cake pops, and 24 cupcakes for my son's 1st birthday (very simple order). She did not respond back for over a week and we went back and forth via email. I asked for a phone call to just sort the order out a few times and she refused. She just kept asking for me to fill out the order form...again....and again...and again. Her emails made absolutely no sense to find out that she uses ChatGPT which was why. She wasn't even responding to my emails as herself even when I told her how upset I was. I left her multiple voicemails and have still not heard from her...only ChatGPT. Now with the party being only a week away, I could not rely on Alexis as I can't even get ahold of her so found another option.

We happened to catch the baker as she was wrapping up for the night and she's so kindly allowed us…read moreto get a couple cupcakes after we had dinner. She took the time even though she was very busy to individually wrap the cupcakes and tie them with a bow in the cutest box. She also gave us instructions on how to defrost them since they were frozen for the night. When I finally got home and was able to enjoy the cupcake, it was one of the best treats I've had in a very long time! it was perfectly sweet and just the right size for a nighttime snack. The store itself is absolutely beautiful and a delicate surprise for the Doylestown area. I can't wait to go back and try some other wonderfully displayed desserts and have a freshly made espresso from their beautiful equipment. The store is very large with lots of parking, but I absolutely recommend bringing a friend to grab a coffee and a treat together. This would be a cute place to have a few people for a small girls birthday!

For the second, I ordered a custom decorated cake for my husband's 50th birthday. I didn't really have an idea in mind of what I wanted, so she asked guiding questions, and helped me come up with a theme. The cake she made was amazing!

I submitted a picture of my vision through their website along with my budget, preferred cake flavor and the number of people I planned to feed. They got back to me fairly quickly with a quote and confirmation that they could complete the request. I had no doubt about it. I picked up the cake yesterday and it was a true masterpiece. The woman behind the counter advised me to let the cake sit out for an hour or two so the icing wouldn't be hard to cut through. The banana flavor was delicious. I warmed up a slice in the microwave and added cinnamon. The warmed up icing was great, too. The team at Velvet Sky Bakery is highly skilled in their craft and I recommend checking them out!

Okay ... the time has come. I hate giving bad reviews and I won't bash them . Because I'm sure they…read morestill have some very good products it's just not worth it for me anymore to get the items that I used to like. I also am fully aware it's a small business and with inflation prices are bound to increase but I felt very ripped off. I bought 4 cupcakes - they're $3.50 each - totally fine. Thats $14. I also bought 3 macarons which the girl said were $1.25 each, also totally reasonable. So now I'm at $17.75 Tell me how I spent $41 and change when the only other things I bought were 3 decorated sugar cookies and 6 petit fours. That means I spent $23 on 3 cookies and 6 petit four. Maybe that's an okay price actually . If the cookie were 4 that'd be 12 and then I spent 11 on those cakes. Sure I guess the price isn't bad. Everything was beautiful by the way. But the cupcakes weren't filled. Again not bad for the price. And the petit fours were not the traditional layered I'm used to. Maybe I just expected more ? Again nothing per se is expensive. And the quality isn't bad either I just don't ever leave loving anything I've purchased. My petit fours also got stuck to the wrappers so I had to eat paper. I just wish I could go in here and order something and know I'll love it. I'd spend more if that were the case ! Again- not a bad review. I know my best friend loves their pastries - but it's just not a place for me anymore to get what I love. I wish them the best and many more years ahead!

Perhaps stopping by on a late Sunday afternoon is not the best time to capture the full Lilit…read moreBakery experience. When I arrived after a very good Mexican lunch further up York Road there wasn't much to choose from in their display case. A few pastries were about all there was. Not a loaf of bread to be found. The young woman behind the counter was friendly and helpful, but she couldn't provide what I was really looking for, great brownies or a fresh fruit pie or coffee cake to take home. So, I opted for a Carrot Cake pastry and a large Chocolate Chip Cookie. Both were adequate, but less than the rapturous experience I was hoping for. The Choco Chip was very sweet and crunchy, but without many chocolate chips. The Carrot Cake looked great, but its flavor was muted. The cake was not as moist as I anticipated, and the icing with a mild light cream texture, as opposed to the heavier cream cheese topping I was expecting. Not at all what I was craving. Sure, it may have saved me from calories and a diabetic coma, but I was looking for a small splurge. This place clearly was too healthy and sensible for my moment seeking temporary indulgences. Although the cafe was cozy and sat at sidewalk level, it just didn't "pop" for me. Perhaps, a better time would permit more satisfying results. 3.5 Patisserie Etoiles.
