I got to Yelp in Castle Rock today. And it was for this cute cake shop in the heart of Castle Rock…read moredowntown. And it's none other than the Cake Company. I had a side hustle job assignment in the very neighborhood mid-afternoon. And I simply didn't want to go there, work, leave and get home; I wanted to discover a business I have never been to. I hence googled bakeries and this cake shop came up. According to a little research, this shop opened its doors in January of 2021 by two sisters who are Colorado natives. This element added more excitement to my quick visit I made today. The Cake Company is adorable. From the exterior signage to the interior decors, everything that decorates the whole space matches the theme of the store. Mostly pink and off-white, they not only sell beautifully crafted cupcakes, pies, rice crispies, cinnamon rolls, to name a few, they also sell some gifts such as wine glasses, t-shirts, journal books, tote bags, mug cups, I mean you name it!! I was at awe standing in front of the showcase that displays all sorts of sweets. When one of the ladies upfront greeted me with a very peppy welcoming tone, she kindly said to take my time. I thus allowed myself to be indecisive for several minutes to take my time (LOL!!) Whereas the pies and cheesecakes to the right looked amazing, they also appeared a bit too big and decadent. Since I only needed one good piece of some delicious something, I opted for a cupcake as they aren't as big as the other sweets. Upon asking the same lady which ones are the most popular, she said it was either Berry Tilly or Better Than Sex. My instinct told me to go with the latter: Better Than Sex. The different lady transacted my purchase. She carefully put my cupcake in a single cupcake box. Just so you know, their boxes are tilt-free so your sweet stuff won't tilt inside it (unless you violently shake the box!) The cupcakes are $6 each. And yet, if you buy 6 or more, each price is reduced to $5.50 up to 11. If you buy 12 or more, each price is reduced to $5.00. 20% discount will be added if you purchase 3 dozens. The shop does sell gluten free ones and yet any of the discounts I mentioned don't appear to apply to them. After the purchase, I looked to the left to discover a little entry way to the store next door. It's Lost Coffee. The customers are free to go in and out between the two shops. This means that you can take your cupcake to the next store and have some coffee or tea to pair with it. This is another store that has this symbiotic relationship with their next-door neighbor business. I always find the concept so intriguing. Businesses help each other. As soon as I got back to my car, I immediately opened the box and started to dig in. And wow....I know this is such an ordinary statement but I will say it: this is/was by far the best cupcake I've ever had. It was perfectly moist in the sponge part with the perfect sweetness. After one bite, it was simply impossible for me to stop eating it although I wanted to save some for later. The cupcake thus disappeared so quickly in a matter of 2-3 minutes. Their cupcakes are phenomenal. There is no way you'll buy cupcakes from other places once you have experienced theirs. I am already pondering as to when I should go back. Discovering great businesses bring me joy; this is why I can never stop Yelping.

We are creatures of habit and love grabbing a slice of PB pie. Just thinking about it has my mouth watering! Their pies are whipped and light but still so rich and delicious! If you're a PB lover, I highly recommend. They also have other flavors and a large cupcake variety, as well as some cute local goods to browse while you wait. 10/10 would recommend for a sweet treat in Castle Rock!

I only leave reviews for places that deserve to be reviewed and let me just tell you - THIS PLACE DESERVES ALL FIVE STARS. I ordered the Thanksgiving cookie kit. A family of cooks and bakers were FAWNING over these cookies. Jodie figured out how to make Christmas cookies taste better than Danish butter cookies. Slightly soft in the middle, bursting with flavor, and guess what? The adults ate them just as much as the kids! And, no, I did not store the leftovers in a secret hiding spot in my kitchen so no one could find them. I totally didn't do that. I totally didn't eat them all myself in the subsequent days. Noooo, not me. ;) Trust me - buy the cookies. Your mouth (and family) will thank you! P.S. We didn't take photos of the cookies, because people ate them so fast! So, here's a photo of our family from that day, for good measure.

Planning a party & in need of a delicious cake and desserts? Look no further than BiteIt! Bakery!…read moreHelmed by the talented Polina Astafyeva (a seasoned Cake Artist with a passion for all things sweet), BiteIt! creates cakes & desserts that are as beautiful as they are delicious. From the moment I contacted Polina, I knew I was in good hands. She made the entire process, from discussing my vision for the cake & desserts, to picking up the final masterpieces (delivery is also available), so easy. For my sister's baby shower, I had a spring floral theme in mind. Polina listened attentively and translated my vision into a delectable reality. The cake was not only stunning, it was a crowd-pleaser. We had the 'Letter Cake' made with honey biscuits, white chocolate ganache, & berry confit (this is BiteIt!'s most popular flavor, and we can see why). The honey biscuit cake was soft with a crumbly texture (comparable to shortbread cookies, but with a subtle sweetness and floral hint from the honey). The white chocolate ganache had a smooth, sweet, and milky chocolate flavor. The berry confit was a refreshing and tart jam that added a fruity burst to each bite of the cake. Polina also baked up macaron boxes as party favors for each guest - raspberry & mango-lemon (both heavenly, the raspberry was my favorite). This was such a fun way to leave everyone with treats to take home. BiteIt! Bakery made our celebration so much sweeter & I can't wait to order from Polina again in the future!

They're all adorable and young and have their cute pink gear on but they don't stop their conversation when a customer walks in? They are not helpful and when I see some cookie on the board on the counter and I ask what they are and one of the girls says and points "the flavors are on the screen" like it was a habit. Then I discover the one cookie thing that caught my eye was one that looked like a peanut butter cookie with stuff on it and she says it's butterfinger. That almost sold me but as I took a second to think, I was so disappointed with how their customer service included pointing to a screen when I asked about what flavors they had on display, that I couldn't spend a penny more in this establishment. I was so disappointed when I left. It's sad that they don't have a clue. Their product is mediocre, in my opinion, the kids all seem to forget how talk to people, I guess I'm disappointed that a national chain like Crumbl doesn't have more structure and enthusiastic staff. I mean, you work in a cookie shop, it's supposed to be fun. I probably won't be returning no matter how much I love my nephew and he asks me.
