  • Honestly, I kinda feel tricked.... I love how Johnny Cakes website looks - it's like a happy medium of a retro and modern flair. It's enticing with the bold colors and the hot retro looking chick. The photos of their creations looked yummy and with the announcement that "Due to a high demand from college students they will be open on Sundays and closed on Mondays" I knew I had to make my short treck up to Anthem to try them out. They are located right next to one of my fav Sushi spots En Sushi. I walked in to a large empty bakery space with some small cupcakes on display in a case and 3 glass dishes filled with cookies. I love baked goods and I knew right away none of these items were freshly made today. I asked the lady if they had any breakfast pastries and she said they only make them sometimes and that they really didn't sell when they were made anyways. She did say that due to the holidays their big sellers were the cookies and their cupcake bouquets. I asked if they were making any pies and she asked the chef (owner I think) and he said yes for $14.95 each. Yikes, I think thats a bit highly priced. She wanted to know if I wanted anything and I said I'll try 2 cupcakes and a cookie. Honestly, if the items looked fresh I would've bought more. But I figured I made the trip so I should try something. The cupcakes were priced at $2.50 each and were rather small. Some of them were even deformed (lopsided) but still in the case to be sold. Not good "presentation wise". They should see the cupcakes sold for $2.65 at Retro Bakery - thats how they should look. I choose the Blueberry,Bacon/Maple cupcakes and a spice cookie with white chocolate in the middle. The cookie was very hard and the lady said the middle should be soft due to the white chocolate middle - Nope, the white chocolate was hard as well. The Blueberry cupcake was very cold and the frosting was hard - due to being refrigerated for IDK how long.... So I let that one sit a little. When it finally thawed out a little it was alright. The Maple Bacon was just gross to me.... Now, the lady did warn me that the Maple cake is not soft like the other cupcakes but I thought "How hard could cake really be?" Well, it didn't matter how long I let it sit cause the cake was just too tough- the frosting with the Maple syrup was just sugar overload. I threw this cupcake out!!! Now, maybe I went on an off day for them.... Maybe it was just my bad luck..... I was just so disappointed because I wanted to like them so much. Hell, I even shared on my FB wall a picture of their Spam Cupcakes for all my friends and family to see. I've never owned or ran a Bakery but I would think that on each day that I'm open for buisness I would have something fresh made on that day for sell and if I'm open during breakfast time a breakfast pastry would make sense. I think there located in a good area in Anthem in which it's right near many homes where the majority of the community if not all are well to do but if you don't have on hand a little variety of frsh yummy stuff to buy then people will drive elsewhere like to Bread and Butter down the street where everthing is made fresh daily. I wish Johnny Cakes well because I do like there concept but it just needs a better execution.
