| - We bought our wedding cake here. Since we're serving pie as the main dessert, we wanted to go with something simple. Something small that would be good for the classic cake cutting photo op.
So we walked in, told them what we were looking for, and ended up with a cake for $16.75. Brilliant!
Of course, we couldn't leave it at just that, and immediately bought a raspberry and an apple danish, which were consumed promptly once we got home. Delicious!
However, it wasn't until the wedding that I could truly appreciate this bakery. When John and I cut the cake and fed it to each other (ok, half smashed it in each other's faces), the first thing I said was "Oh my god. This cake is phenomenal." The world's most perfect icing; creamy, not too sweet, and pairing perfectly with the confection it covered. And oh, the cake! We ordered marble cake, and it was light and fluffy and had the most incredible flavor. I don't know what their secret is, but it's the best cake I've ever had.
We didn't order a regular wedding cake because we've never had cake we've loved as much as a good fruit pie. Well, let me tell you. I didn't even end up eating the pie at my own wedding because this cake was so amazing.
This is the type of place I hope continues to thrive in Lakewood. It's heartwarming that a local business has been around so long and become such an institution (especially judging by the other Yelp reviews). Definitely a spot to stop in if you're in the area!
