These people were so rude. First no one acknowledged us for five minutes. When we walked to the cash register someone finally walked over. When we ordered our cake they seemed appalled that I wanted the cake that day and I actually wanted to wait for it. I am from out of town and in looking at their website there was no mention of a requirement of advance order. The store is called Cakes While U Wait not cakes next week. They did manage to make us a cake and I picked it up several hours later and it was tasty. It was delicious but I will never go back while I am in town.
Our wedding cake was delicious and turned out exactly how we wanted. Lots of compliments from our guests! Would highly recommend them!
This was the best cake I’ve ever had. Seriously. After the tasting I ordered one for my wedding and ordered one for my birthday exactly the same. The wedding cake turned out beautiful and they delivered it to my wedding venue. They were very attentive to each detail and I’m so happy to give them a positive review. Will most definitely be ordering from them again!
We had a great experience working with Cakes While U Wait. We started off by working with Kimberly for our cake tasting and she couldn't have been more sweet. Out of everyone we worked with, she was by far the most approachable. We were quite indecisive about what we wanted the cake to look like, but with their suggestions, we were very pleased with the final product. They delivered the cake on time and everyone loved how it tasted!
We were very satisfied with Cakes While U Wait for our wedding cake! We had a 2-tier red velvet and butter cream wedding cake with a 12" bottom tier (rosettes with gold spray) and a 9" top tier (white with a gold ribbon). It was delicious and looked fabulous! We added 3 bunches of flowers that matched the flowers for the wedding and that worked out perfectly. This only cost us $111.18. We had some friends pick up the cake the day of the wedding and it was simple to transport.
The only minor disappointment we had was during the cake tasting, the people working there seemed to be too busy to help us make any decisions so we flipped through the binders they gave us and created our own version of what we thought might work. There certainly wasn't much reassurance from the woman helping us. We just trusted that it would work out and thankfully it did!
We completely forgot to pick up our cake. I don't know where it got lost in communication but it was forgotten. They closed at 2pm and at 2:05pm they left a very nice voicemail saying our cake was still there and they would have someone there baking till about 5pm and to come get it when we could. I sent someone over there right away and I was told they were very pleasant and helpful. I was so stressed when I realized we forgot it but they were really easy to work with and made the situation much easier to fix. The cake turned out exactly how we wanted and tasted amazing!! The decorations and details were amazing.
Cake was so yummy and it was exactly what I wanted! Everyone was so helpful with all my question and no issues with our cake. I would recommend them to anyone!
The cake was beautiful and delicious! I can't wait for our anniversary cake! The only down side was when we returned our pieces and the lady argued with me about our $100 refund since we didn't use the cake stand.
I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND them to everyone I know. Their staff is so extremely nice, and when I needed to switch from pick-up to delivery (within the month before the wedding) they were so accommodating. The cake was georgous, and DELICIOUS. I had so many compliments on the cake. We did a 2 tier (which falls into birthday pricing!) for pictures and 4 sheet cakes... very reasonably priced. LOVE LOVE LOVE them!!!
Cakes While U Wait made a delicious cake for our wedding! We were extremely happy working with them and they did a great job making the cake look like how I envisioned. We are very happy we went with them for our special day!
Honestly, we are still getting complements on how good our wedding cake was. The texture, the quality, the taste.... everything was spot on. They offered us an amazing package for a 2 tier cake and a few sheet cakes. Everything was delivered to our venue on time and set up beautifully. We would definitely go back for anniversaries and birthdays and any other special event.
Cakes While U Wait had a great product, but did not execute what we wanted.
Great to work with! Yummy cake and the cake was decorated beautifully! The best part is they give you a free anniversary cake on your one year anniversary!
We ordered a cupcake wedding cake. The colors and decorations were beautiful and more than we expected. The cake tier was set up beautifully. The cost was also great because they offer a 100 dollar refund if you bring back their cupcake tier.
This is seriously the BEST wedding cake ever! The cake is so good and moist from this place, and they are awesome to work with. We got married in Milwaukee and their place is 30 minutes away and we did not even hesitate to pay for the delivery charge because it is so good. My sister ended up using them for her wedding as well after trying some of mine because it was SO delicious! Price is reasonable too, and they work with you on design. My guests all loved the cake and even had seconds and wanted more!
We ordered 300 cupcakes from Cakes while u wait as we originnally planned on 300 people. Well we only had 280 but the cupcakes were so good we only had 4 left!! The prices were out of this world and the selections were great!
All our guests who had cake loved the cakes. We were recommended to Cakes While U Wait through my Uncle, who went to high school with one of the owners. When we had the cake samples, we were blown away! The frosting is not too sweet and the fillings are delicious. We decided to have three separate cakes on wood pedastals and have each one a different flavor. All the flavors were fantastic. And the price was extremely reasonable! I would recommend Cakes While U Wait to anyone in the Milwaukee or Madison area.
Our wedding cake turned out exactly how we wanted. Debbie gave us a sampling of cake flavors....they were all delicious which made it hard to decide. We couldn't go wrong with any of them, but we decided on a lemon cake with raspberry filling. it was perfect for our spring wedding.
We did a four tier wedding cake, with red velvet, yellow cake with fudge filling and an additional sheet cake of marble. I did not hear one complaint about the cake, everyone said it tasted amazing. My only criticism would be that I thought the design of the cake would have had more snow flakes and sparkle added to it like I had envisioned when I went over the design with the vendor. But I will say that the cake still looked amazing and tasted great.
Our cake tasted amazing just as we remembered, when we taste tested. However on our wedding day I did not see the cake be delivered but members of our wedding party said the delivery person seemed to be in a rush and when she left the cake started to lean. It was a four tier cake with pillars in between the tiers. Our wedding day of coordinator tried to contact the baker but she did not answer any of the 3 phone calls made. Luckily we cut our cake before it fell but it was leaning quite a bit.
It is no exaggeration that this was the best cake I've ever tasted. I am still getting compliments to this day on how great it was! We got the basic yellow cake with a vanilla custard filling. It was super moist and flavorful. In addition to the taste, it was absolutely beautiful. The detail work on the cake was intricate and looked fabulous. The price was extremely reasonable for what we ordered, too.
The cake was fantastic. I had so many people coming up to me at the wedding and still a month later saying how great it was. It was delivered and set up at 1:45pm for a 5:30 arrival time by the bride and groom. The cake frosting changed from the purples we wanted to blue. None of our guest knew but both my husband, mother-in-law, and I noticed. We meet we the owner of the business. She was very nice and made the small issue right. We will continue to get cakes from them as we have NEVER had a better tasting cake.
the one thing i liked about cakes while u wait was the taste. it was AMAZING! but their decorations on my cake were beyond bad. I asked if they could do a chicago bears helmet on my cake during my consultation,the lady told me they were packer fans and she wasnt sure she would do it, but they put chicago bears helmet on my cake, i am not joking when i tell you it looked like a 2nd grader drew it. They put my cake topper on backwords, and they did not put propper supports in my cake so when i saw my cake it was slanted to the point that my topper almost fell off. when i went to cut my cake there was cardboard on the top layer, i had to remove the topper, and the the cardboard and then i could cut the cake. i was extremely dissappointed with their decorations. i would not reccommend them to anyone for a wedding cake, cupcakes, i would reccommend any day of the week, but this bakery truly ruined my wedding cake. i was so upset.
We had a four layer, four flavor cake, and all we heard all night were compliments on how delicious, moist and beautiful the cake was!
Not only does this place have free cake tasting, but they also have amazing cake. Don't let me forget to tell you that they also give you a free anniversary cake so you don't have to eat a year old frozen cake. I don't know how many times people stopped me to ask me where I got my cake, they said it was so delicious. They have a lot of cake and filling choices. We got the marble cake with chocolate ganache on one layer and yellow cake with oreo filling on the other layer. We also got a sheet cake. The cake was a great value and I can't wait to pick up my anniversary cake next year.
This was the best place I could have ever picked to do my Wedding Cake. Everything was terriffic. The Cake The decorating the Customer service. I would highly recomend this company. Thank you Cakes While U Wait for making my Wedding Perfect!
We used to buy our birthday cakes from them and liked the cake however,our wedding cake was the worse thing about my wedding day. Our caterer told us her staff had a hard time cutting/serving the cake. It was frozen and where it wasn't frozen it was uncooked? We called the baker to tell her and she left a message that she would do a price adjustment. Three return calls later she has not responded to any of our calls. I was embarrassed since the cake also had a slope to it (maybe defrosting or where it was not cooked)that I wanted the caterer to quickly take it back into the kitchen to cut. Also only one side was decorated (miscommunication on how I wanted it decorated but you'd think you want all sides of the cake to have scrolls/decorations on). Luckily we ordered a sheet cake for the grooms cake otherwise my guests would not have gotten cake. Word to other brides BOOK EARLY and go with the popular bakers who like doing wedding cakes, remember the saying "you get what you pay for" so pay a little bit more for the cake. When meeting with her, it felt like her heart was not into making wedding cakes but I waited too long to find a cake so I felt like this was my only choice at such a short notice.
I called to change my cake to 100% black and white about a month before the wedding. When I saw the cake the day of my wedding it was black, white, and pink, which was how it was originally ordered. The pink color was wrong, as it was supposed to have been a fuscia color in the first place. If they would have changed it to all black and white like I requested, they would have gotten 5 starts! The cake tasted phenomenal and everyone loved it.
We opted for a small 3-tiered wedding cake and three different flavored sheetcakes. People loved having options, and it was very affordable. Delicious cake!
The prices were not only affordable, but the cake was delicious-very moist. Don't miss the passion fruit filling. The cake was there when it was supposed to and in the right spot. The only negative would be that I ordered filling in all my layers but some were just plain chocolate. But it was delicious and there was plenty of everything.
The cake tasted absolutely amazing!! It looked awsome, could have been a smidge better, but the taste made up for it!!
BEAUTIFUL DESIGN
