They had a variety of drinks available in the fridge next to the cashier, and some cupcakes on display (including a dog friendly "pupcake"). Visually the cupcakes were nothing extraordinary yet still appealing, the toasted coconut one more so in my opinion. And although taste wise they weren't bad by any means, I can't help but feel a little underwhelmed for the price as I've had better cupcakes that cost the same.

I contacted her a few weeks in advance. I was traveling to Oregon from Texas to celebrate our girls' birthdays. I mailed her the toppers for both the cake and 15 cupcakes. She was quick to respond and said she would be able to provide free delivery within the bend area which was perfect because the party was in bend. She was super nice in providing additional cupcake toppers as I ordered 24 cupcakes but didn't have enough toppers. She really went above and beyond any expectations I had. Her prices were competitive in comparison to other bakers in the area but ultimately she was the one with the most reasonable prices. The payment process was super easy too! The cakes were a huge hit at the party and everyone kept asking where I got such beautiful cakes from. The buttercream was soo good and the chocolate and vanilla cake were good too!! If I lived in Central Oregon I would definitely continue to use Elevation Desserts for my custom cakes.

Back in October of 2019 we flew over to Bend (from FL) to check out some vendors, see our venue, +…read moredo a "tasting" with a very well known local bakery. Much to our disappointment, I arrived at the bakery to find 4 very dried out cupcakes, no one to assist me, + anything but a tasting. (Yes, we had discussed a tasting via email weeks in advance; they knew we were coming.) As we drove around waiting for our next appointment my mom stumbled on these same reviews for Crumb Cakery + emailed Tara. Although we were unable to meet her on that trip, my mom insisted that she "just [had] a good feeling about Tara" so we should come back once more before the wedding to meet her. Mother's intuition... Spot on!! In January, after some shifts to our wedding plans, we made a trip out to Bend + met with Tara for a tasting. THIS WAS A TRUE TASTING!! From trying out multiple combinations to being encouraged to create our own; not to mention how absolutely delicious everything was. WE WERE SOLD! To be honest, we had not even wanted a cake but the family had pushed us to get one. As life would have it after the tasting we were reluctant to pick a flavor so we ended up choosing two for the cake + designing an entire dessert table for all 15 people (including ourselves) that would be attending the wedding. For months Tara + I messaged back and forth on how to bring this table to life + since we are from out of town she even made a run to Homegoods to pick out some display trays for us. Talk about going above + beyond! The sweets became one of our most anticipated parts of our wedding + our family could not wait to taste it all. The table display was gorgeous, everything tasted amazing, + the three boxes of leftover sweets were eaten the day following the wedding leaving us with only one box carrying our top tier to be taken back to FL with us for our anniversary! Tara is a dream to work with, a true pastry chef, + artist. If I lived in Bend, I'd go to her for all my confection needs. Please do not hesitate to contact her for whatever you need. You will not regret it! Thank you so much for everything, Tara. We love you!

I have been following Crumb Cakery for a while on Instagram. I contacted Tara and ordered a cake from the website. There are so many different options and selections to choose from. We ordered the cake two weeks out. Tara has messaged me along the way and kept me updated. I was told when the cake would be ready and when and where to pick it up. Everything went perfectly! The cake was beautiful, Tara was very punctual and it tasted amazing! Most importantly my daughter loved it. I can't recommend Crumb Cakery enough. If you are looking for a wedding cake, birthday cake or just something sweet to brighten your day, this is the place. Thanks so much for making our day and providing Bend with a "Real" bakery!

But, this does add to your wait time if you didn't call ahead. Be prepared! The gals will take your order and then have to frost every single cupcake. I got Valentines sprinkles for no extra charge. They were so pretty! As for taste the cupcakes were moist and tasted great. There is a lot of frosting and it is pretty sweet, even the cream cheese one. I love the variety of cupcakes: snicker doodle, lemon poppyseed, lemon, passion fruit, red velvet and several more! Lots of frosting choices too, Oreo, fireball whiskey, orange, to name a few! They also sell gluten free cupcakes but they will be frozen unless you order ahead of time. Mini cupcakes are only available by ordering a day ahead of time. They also have 3 flavors of pre made cakes you can buy. As an aside, when I was there, a lady was very upset about something with her order and I saw the owner(?)Come out and talk to her and gave her a refund! I was amazed by this customer service! Now Gourmet cupcakes are only for special occasions for me because of the cost, but this store has a happy hour from 5p-6p where it's buy a cupcake get one free! That means $2.50 for 2!!! Perfect for dessert!

The staff was super helpful in getting us set up with a tasting box, with multiple cupcakes & frostings, to try as many combinations as we pleased. They were able to deliver the two-tiered cake & the cupcakes we ordered without any problems & even had cake display plates available. The cake was amazing & guests were excited to take home some extra cupcakes (you always have to order extra cupcakes, right!?). I would definitely recommend Ida's Too to anyone planning a wedding, or other event. Thanks Ida's!!

All were delicious and had a very nice, made from scratch flavor. The owner saw me browsing her goodies ahead of time and kindly came over to our table during breakfast and allowed me to order the items so they were all ready to go when we finished breakfast. (Please note: if you want to order something, she may be busy in the back so ring the bell and she comes out right away). The sourdough cinnamon rolls are huge and tasty - probably enough for 2 or 3 people. The wild berry bar was great and not too sweet, allowing the berry flavor to come through. The ganache brownie was super yummy and chocolatey with a generous amount of the ganache topping. Definitely worth a stop by for a special, home made treat!

Then I learned the pies are sometimes available at Central Oregon Locavore and so on a lark last Thursday when I was in town I popped into Locavore late in the afternoon and as serendipity would have it the Farmhouse Pies had just been dropped off. We chose the Maple Pumpkin (other flavors that day were Triple Berry, Apple and Pear Ginger Crumble) and it was delightful for flavor of filling and butter pastry crust too. A bit more rustic in appearance than I expected, that too was delightful, and it was perfect size for six slices. We are eager to try more on future visits. As "pro tip" note Farmhouse Pies is taking Thanksgiving orders to be delivered to Locavore for pick up: "Pick up date for Thanksgiving orders will be 11/23 from 4-6 at Central Oregon Locavore.
