The cake for my wedding came out incredible. All the guests were raving about the vanilla cake with buttercream and fresh strawberries. It looked beautiful just as I wanted too. The whole team couldn’t be nicer to us and timely at our tasting. ...

Carlo's Bakery baked our wedding cake for our wedding at Liberty House, and we were floored by how beautiful and tasty it was! We gave our consultant, James, a bunch of photos of some ideas we liked and asked him if they could incorporate cert...
ain elements of each one into our cake design. We wanted a tree design to match the Pacific Northwest meets NYC vibe we were going for with our wedding decor, and they absolutely nailed it. So many guests commented on how it looked like a real tree! Better yet, it tasted amazing! We opted for vanilla and chocolate cake with Oreo French Cream, and it was absolutely delicious! If you're looking for a phenomenal baker, Carlo's Bakery is it! Thank you to James and all of the staff at Carlo's for bringing our cake vision to life and making it even better than we could have imagined!

Apparently this detail wasn't written down despite being discussed during the consultation. Overall, the cake tasted alright and it at least looked presentable. Just not what I would have paid for.

but missing the topper of flowers we had ordered and there was a bump on the top of the fondant.

I first tried Carlos Bakery a few years ago - my first red velvet cupcake. Ever since, I've been trying to find somewhere that can come close so I can indulge without going all the way to Hoboken. I've not found any that can even resemble it....
Since I'd failed to find anything even remotely resembling the red velvet I craved, I went to Hoboken the morning before my wedding to pick up a Red Velvet cake from the case. We didn't open the box until about 9pm the following day and the cake was absolutely amazing! So fresh, moist and delicious - just what I had wanted... I was nervous how it would hold up after a day and a half since it usually doesn't last me more than 5 hours when I get one - but it was just as good as fresh. We ate a slice every morning before we left for the day and every night when we returned for the next 4 or 5 days - still totally delicious. I don't have any experience with custom orders or official 'wedding cake' orders... but if you'd be happy with standard cakes from the display case to serve at your wedding - I think it's the way to go! I got a few other things while I was there, so not 100% sure on the price, but it was around $25 or less and easily served 12 really good sized pieces.

happy about our decisions. A few weeks after our initial consultation, I decided that I wanted a surprise groom's cake for my husband (a terrible towel - he is a huge Steelers fan!). Everything was handled quickly and professionally by Angelo. Although, I had some difficulty paying for the cake (they were in the middle of moving locations), everything worked out. On the day of the wedding, my husband was so surprised by the cake and it looked AMAZING! It looked just like a terrible towel! All of the Pittsburgh fans there were so excited and everyone took a million pictures of the cake. Not only were our cakes beautiful but they were delicious. Not too sweet or heavy (we had the vanilla and chocolate with chocolate mousse and the chocolate cake with chocolate mousse). I was weary about using Carlo's originally knowing all of the publicity they have gotten recently but I suppose there is a reason that they are famous. The cakes were great!

de them popular with the nation. We called 3 months in advanced for our cake tasting, I suggest calling more like 5 months before for this baker as they become book quickly. There was a line of which there was a 45 minute wait, which since we had an appointment we did not have to wait on. We were escorted into the bakery, quite the thing for someone who watches the show, and taken to meet with Mauro, on of the head bakers. They were very professional and very nice. We were offered coffee during our tasting and we were able to even bring my mother. We tasted 7 different kinds. It was amazing. And after we chose our design, they had a selection of about 10 and you can make edits to your cake for additional charges, they brought us downstairs and asked us if we would like anything from the bakery. We took this opportunity and everything we brought home was amazing. On the wedding day our cake looked perfect and it tasted just like it did the day we had it at the tasting. It was moist and delicious. The hard part is keeping the cake top that way for a year.
