Our cake was amazing! It came out exactly how I pictured. It was so good our guest all loved it. The tasting box was great too!
Jessica from Gerardo's Bakery was absolutely amazing and we would recommend her to anyone getting married! She made the most beautiful, delicious wedding cake. Our guests could not stop complimenting how light the cake was and how tasty the buttercream frosting was. She helped make our special day taste extra sweet.
I am currently living in Florida and recently had a delicious lobster claw from a West Palm Beach Italian grocer and suddenly all I could think about was how much I missed Gerardo's Italian Bakery. The nostalgia of going to the bakery for special occasion pastry (and just because I was near the bakery!!) was overwhelming. I can't wait to be back in MA to drive over and have a bit.. OK, maybe more than a bite!!!
We had an amazing experience with Gerardo’s! I’ve grown up loving this bakery and having them make my ceremony cutting cake and having the Cannoli Station was the perfect addition to our wedding reception.
Guests loved the experience and variety of all the different Cannoli’s, including all the gluten free options they brought for some of my guests! It was so fun and interactive, and communicating with Jessica and Gerardo was so easy - everything was a breeze! Highly recommend!
Gerardo's was so easy to work with. They delivered on our vision and the cake was delicious!
We were connected with Gerardo’s through our venue, Grand View, and we are so happy we got to use them for our wedding cake! It was both beautiful and delicious! They offer a sampler of something like 12 different flavors and honestly it was hard to choose. We went with the flavor we couldn’t stop eating and that was cappuccino. It was a unique flavor, so light and sweet, so so good!! We made it a fun surprise for our guests too, not telling anyone our choice in advance. They have hundreds of designs to inspire you on their website and we described a combination of the two we liked. It came out perfectly. Thank you for making such a perfect wedding cake! We can’t wait to have it again on our anniversary (something they will provide - What a plus!!)
We got our wedding cake and other desserts and we couldn’t be more pleased. Ordering was easy and trust Gerardo’s suggestions on flavor combinations! I know I am glad I went with Italian cream instead of reg buttercream.
Gerardo's Bakery did a fantastic job with our wedding cake and pastries! They were included in our wedding package with Grand View, and we were so impressed by how easy they were to work with and how delicious their cakes are! We did their cake tasting and had such a hard time narrowing down flavors that we picked a different flavor for each tier. They also provided an assortment of Italian pastries and cookies for a dessert table. Upon drop-off, they put on our cake topper and assembled our flowers on the cake. Would definitely recommend and now know where we'll be going for all other celebratory baked goods!
We hired Gerardos for my daughters wedding and I can 100% recommend. My daughter wanted a 7 inch cake for a private cake cutting, and cupcakes for the 100+ guests. From start to finish the process was so easy. The sample boxes for tasting was so easy. My daughter was able to pick up a tasting box and sample all the flavors at home with her fiancé. They chose a canoli cake for the cutting cake and a variety of cupcake flavors including the strawberry ricotta, canoli, and red velvet for our wedding guests, including some vegan cupcakes. Our guests commented on how delicious the cupcakes were! Thank you Gerardos for providing the delicious desserts for such a special occasion.
What a way to end a wonderful wedding dinner with a cannoli bar from Gerarado's. A++ on point. The gentlemen making the cannoli’s were spot on, delightful, patient and elegant. The connoli's were so fresh and delicious. Thank you Garado and company for making are wedding desert so memorable.
We hired Gerardo’s for our 10/28/23 wedding in Mendon, MA. Gerardo’s was lovely to work with and provided professional and prompt service. They baked us a small cake for ceremonial purposes but the star of the show was the live action cannoli bar! Guests are still RAVING about the cannolis (pick your own toppings) and Gerardo’s even provided to go containers for the cannolis! Would absolutely recommend!
The cake tasting was so amazing and was a very difficult decision trying to decide on our favors. The team at Gerardo's was fantastic to work with. They were included as one of two cake vendors that our venue partnered with and were included in our plan. I sent them a photo of what we were looking for and they were spot on providing the design we wanted.
Such a great experience working with them. I’ve been a customer of theirs for years, so when it came to deciding where to order our wedding cake from, they were definitely a top choice. When we came in looking to order a gluten free wedding cake, the staff went above and beyond to help us by providing gluten free cupcakes with the different filling options, since getting a regular wedding cake sampler wasn’t really an option for us. We ordered a small gluten free cake to cut and regular sheet cakes for our guests, and the quality of both was incredible. We couldn’t be happier with our choice in bakery.
Gerardo’s has been a family favorite for a while, so it was a no brainer that they would be making the wedding cake! Gerardo’s has so many delicious flavors and our cake was SO good. We got a strawberry shortcake flavor, Italian mascarpone with chocolate, and cannoli cream with vanilla. Jess was easy to work with and she was great at making suggestions as well. We also chose to have mini cannolis as our favors and those were a hit! Gerardo’s cannolis are the best. Overall, we were beyond happy with our experience with Gerardo’s.
The cake was beautiful and tasted AMAZING a lot of people have still been talking about how good the cake was even a week after the wedding. The bakery was responsive and helpful and even assisted me with making cookie favors for the wedding. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a beautiful wedding cake!
Our venue included a cake from Gerardo's. When we spoke to the team at Gerardo's, we shared our vision to do a small, clean cake alongside a variety of pastries. The Gerardo's team went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. All of the desserts were fantastic!
Gerardo’s makes wedding cake tasting easy by providing a to-go cake sampler! We visited the West Boylston location and brought home a cake sampler, with so many slices of delicious cake flavors to try, and other various desserts (cannolis, brownies, cupcakes, cookies, tiramisu, fruit tart, etc). Once we made our decision, chose a cake design from their website, our wedding cake and dessert order was just a phone call away. They delivered our cake and dessert assortment to the venue without a problem, and everything was absolutely delectable! Highly recommend Gerardo’s!
What an amazing bakery. I just want to thank Girados for catering to my gluten-free allergy and making a phenomenal cake that all of my guests love we didn’t even get to go home with one piece because my guest devoured every last piece of that cake. the top-tier was gluten-free the middle is carrot and the bottom was red velvet. We picked the birch tree cake and they made it where it looks so beautiful I didn’t even want to cut it but I did and I’m glad I did because it taste wonderful. They were professional and prompt and made my experience one to remember thank you Girados for making my wedding as sweet as it could be.
Our cake was beautiful and so delicious! We worked through the Grand View in Mendon, and it was super easy. We had the strawberry ricotta cake, and it was so light and perfect for summer. We ended up eating the top tier instead of saving it, because it was so good!
The nice thing about Gerardo’s Bakery is that because they are a larger bakery, they do multiple weddings in a weekend. We ordered a strawberry and ricotta cake with assorted cannolis and everything was to die for! We saved the top tier of our cake to eat on our anniversary and the temptation to eat it again is real! The cake and cannolis were incredible. They also have over 100 designs to choose from and they’re all beautiful and will even work with your florist. Gerardo himself handles the wedding orders and understandably he is very busy. Whenever we tried to email with questions they told us to call the store but when we did, he wasn’t always available to talk and sometimes would take days to respond. However with that aside, I would still pick Gerardo’s Bakery over again. It was delicious and we highly recommend them. - Victoria & Eric
Amazing bakery - great cakes and other treats. We ordered our wedding cake here - a big hit and many guests told us it was the most delicious wedding cake they've ever had!
We used Gerardo's for our wedding on 5/29/22 and we are so pleased with how the desserts came out! The team was very responsive throughout the process as well as they were very accommodating in meeting the needs of some dietary restrictions. We ordered a cake for a cutting ceremony and cupcakes for the guests. Everything was presented so simply yet beautifully (as we wanted) and more importantly, everything was delicious! For the quality of service and food, we found it to be very reasonable too. We strongly recommend Gerardo's!
MY WEDDING CAKE WAS BEAUTIFUL AND DELICIOUS! Gerardo was wonderful and easy to work with. They get your design aesthetic down and then the cake flavor!! I loved the whole process of working with Gerardo's Bakery and especially the amount of different flavor options available for wedding cakes! Thank you for delivering the perfect cake for our wedding!
Gerardo was great from start to finish. The cakes are a flat rate, which is pretty incredible. You get to choose your flavors, size, decoration, all of it! I found that hands down I could get exactly what I was looking for at a significantly lower price. Delivery was on time and set up perfectly. BONUS: They offer a free new top layer for your 1 year anniversary.
Gerardo's Italian Bakery in West Boylston, MA did an amazing job making our wedding both memorable and unique with their delicious cannoli station. Gerardo's team came to our wedding and set up a cannoli station where they filled cannoli's and added fun toppings for our guests. This was incredible and our guests raved about how unique and delicious the cannolis were. The team was very professional and working with them was great. If you are looking for something special to make your wedding day stand out, then absolutely hire Gerardo's Italian Bakery!
We worked with Gerardos for our October 2021 wedding reception. We had the cannoli bar as well as a small cake for us to cute. Everything was delicious and our guest loved every bite. We can't wait to visit yearly for an anniversary cake!
We worked with Gerardo’s for our August 2021 wedding in Newport, RI. Gerardo’s created a beautiful three-tiered cake for us and it tasted delicious! Gerardo’s was easy to work with and extremely affordable. Gerardo’s cake was exactly what we wanted and we can’t recommend them enough!
We loved working with Gerardo's! From start to finish, Gerardo and his team made everything about choosing a wedding cake so easy and the cake was delicious! Although we unfortunately couldn't do an in-person tasting because of Covid, the take home cake sampler worked just fine. We went with a pretty simple design for our cake (selected from a gallery with just color adjustments) and it was exactly as we envisioned. Along with the cake, we also had the cannoli station at our reception and our guests loved it! We had seen it at our venue's tasting and immediately knew we had to get one for our wedding day as well. So glad we did, they even gave us a box of cannolis to take home!
Gerardos did a fantastic job with our wedding cake! The process was super simple, and our wedding cake turned out exactly the way we wanted. Our cake was not only beautiful but delicious. We will use Gerardos for all our bakery needs moving forward. I would 100% recommend Gerardos to any family or friend.
I will start by saying this: we had several guests, as well as my husband, who don't like cake a whole lot and they raved about how amazing this cake was! It was so so so good. They have a wide variety of cake flavors and styles to choose from, very easy to order from them, gave us many samples for our cake tasting too. We were extremely happy with our choice!
We loved Gerardo's! I really had a simple design in mind for our wedding cake, and Gerardo's was able to make it happen no problem. Our cake was affordable, delicious, and beautiful. Gerardo's was willing to take our silk flowers that we designed and place them on our cake, we got to pick 3 different flavors, and even better - they gift you a top tier on your one year anniversary.
Additionally- a nice little perk - because we put a deposit on our cake during February and Covid-times, we took advantage of their take-home tasting kit. It was a fun valentine's activity to be able to try different cake flavors in the quiet of our own home and made us get excited for the wedding!
Gerardos is the best dessert place is the area. We tried a couple other places for cake tastings but Gerardos cakes and frosting were so fluffy and light and delicious, there was no comparison. They have all sorts of flavors and fillings, and when it was time to choose what the cake looked like they had probably a hundred options of cake designs to choose from. We added other mixed pastries and they were all delicious as well. Everything was done so easily, despite the delays and changes due to COVID restrictions over the past two years, and yet Gerardos kept my info and deposit on file and everything was done easily and smoothly. I 100% recommend them for weddings, as well as a great bakery to stop in any time you’re looking for dessert.
We cannot say enough about working with Gerardo and his team. We had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid, and they were so helpful and accommodating. Our wedding cake on 6/11/21 was absolutely gorgeous and even more delicious! We chose the strawberry ricotta and we heard compliments ALL night long - and even the week after - about how amazing it was! The design came out gorgeous and it was one of our favorite (and most delicious) details of the day. Thank you, Gerardo and team!
We ordered our wedding cake here and Gerardo was great, he was so helpful when our plans originally changed and made sure everything was smooth along the way. We were able to do a delicious taste testing of multiple different flavored fillings, and the process of ordering the cake was very quick and simple! The cake was not only beautiful but it was absolutely delicious and all of our guests loved it!! I would definitely recommend this bakery for any event, they were great to work with !
Have been buying a cake from this store for 5 years. Ordered the same exact birthday cake in 2021, and it was a mess. The order takers have no time to talk on the phone and want to rush through the call. No questions asked, suggestions made, and the same exact order that I have been giving for years was messed up. When discussed with the manager, obviously the blame is all customer's. We should have said x, y, z. The cake was just a plain white cake with fruits thrown on top. But they could do the same exact order with decoration and everything for the past years. Asked to check the history and I was told they do not maintain any history of past orders. Clearly something has changed in 2021. When ordering they charge 35 dollars and when picking up take extra 5 bucks - indicating that fruits were not included in the earlier quote. Very bad experience on my son's birthday.
The cake tasting was unavaible due to Covid so we purchased the cake sampler instead and we were so glad we did. Their cake is some of the best we have ever had. We chose to go with them and were told they could do what we envisioned and everything was all set after we put down a deposit. I called two weeks before the wedding to go over the design and pay. This is where we started having trouble. I asked for greenery and a simple design around the cake. I was told that was fine only to be called back later and told they can't do that I have to purchase all the extra greenery and deliver it. Okay... change of plans then.. can they make chocolate trees? (They are a bakery... should be able to pipe chocolate trees. I can do this and I am a home cook.) I got another call, they said they couldn't. (advice: Might want to invest in tree molds... just saying) So at this point I asked okay, what CAN you do since everything I say is impossible. The answer, plastic green trees with frosting snow. Okay, good, great, go for it and I paid. It ended up snowing on our wedding day so it worked out. Fast forward to four days before our wedding and we get a call about how we never paid and they haven't heard from us since we put down the deposit. I'm sorry. WHAT! Way to give a bride a heart attack. They had misplaced things and couldn't find some of our original paperwork and it was their error. The cake was raved about, it truly came our beautiful, and it is some of the best tasting cake I have ever had, but there were some bumps to getting there.
We were so happy with our wedding cake we ordered from Gerardos. Due to 2020 our wedding changed multiple times but Gerardos was able to accommodate our changes without a question. The cake was gorgeous and delicious!
We were SO happy with our cake from Gerardo's! We had a great free tasting with Gerardo himself and our cake turned out exactly as we envisioned it. Our family couldn't stop raving about how fresh and delicious our cake was! The crew at Gerardo's knows what they're doing! We will be sure to continue going to Gerardo's for all our future cakes and treats.
Gerardo's Italian Bakery makes beautiful cakes. Gerardo meets with all of his couples to make sure he understands exactly what we want. Gerardo was incredibly friendly, funny and gave our family a great experience. The cake was absolutely stunning and was exactly what we asked for. People kept raving about the cake and how beautiful it was. Gerardo made the most amazing cake and I recommend him to anyone.
Gerardo’s was great from start to finish! The tasting was fabulous – I brought my husband, maid of honor, and bridesmaid with me to the tasting and we still had leftovers for my parents to try. The flavors were amazing – we ended up choosing a strawberry chiffon and a lemon filling (not one of Gerardo’s standard flavors, but it’s my husband’s favorite flavor and he was more than happy to make it for us). We loved that it was a set price per slice – which meant that we could choose whatever decorations we wanted without having to worry about the cost. We had the most beautiful four-tier classic wedding cake. It was everything I had ever dreamed of and tasted delicious! Definitely go with Gerardo’s!
Gerardo was such a pleasure to work with. Our wedding cake looked and tasted amazing. All of our guests raved about the traditional Italian wedding cake!
The cake was beautiful and so delicious as always. What I love about Gerardo's is that he provides your top layer free on your anniversary so you don't have to freeze the delicious cake!
From start to finish Gerardo was absolutely amazing! The tasting was delicious! The design was beautiful! We got so many compliments on our cake and cup cakes! What an amazing experience! I will be using him for any and all events!
We are so glad we chose Gerardo's Bakery to create our wedding cake! Gerardo met with us at the cake tasting and was personable, easy to work with, and answered all of our questions directly. We were impressed by the amount of offerings at the cake tasting and had a hard time choosing because they were all so good. The cake was reasonably priced, beautifully designed, and tasted SO good. Choosing Geraardo's was one of the easiest choices we made for our wedding! And the best part is - you get a free top layer on your 1st anniversary!
Gerardo was amazing to work with! We met with him months before the wedding and booked his bakery for our wedding cake. They provide samples of their most popular wedding cake options and let you take home the leftovers. When we met again a few weeks before the wedding, we decided we wanted a different flavor than we tasted and they were able to accommodate that flavor for us. He was also able to create a design for the cake that was exactly what we wanted. The cake tasted AMAZING and we couldn't have been happier with it. We are looking forward to our one year anniversary when they will make a new cake for us to replicate our wedding day cake. Thank you Gerardo!
Our guests have been raving about our dessert table for weeks. Presentation was beautiful, treats were delicious (as always)!
As someone who grew up going to Gerardo’s for treats there was no question who would be our wedding cake baker and Gerardo did not disappoint! He was incredible and made us an amazing cake that I only wish I could have eaten more of that night! It was a super fresh, moist cake with delicious filling and gorgeously decorated!
Our cake was BEAUTIFUL. I could not ask for anything better and not to mention the cake itself was delicious. We could not imagine a better tasting or better looking cake for our special day.
My husband and I used Gerardo's for a cannoli station at our wedding reception, and it was one of the best decisions we made. The cannolis were fantastic (side note - make sure you actually take some time to eat them because you don't want to miss out). They packed up a box for my husband and I to take home, as well as both our parents to take. My husband's grandmother was the one who paid for the station. The guys who worked the station knew that and they went out of their way to talk to her and make her a box to take home. The guys were so nice and great to work with. Extremely professional and great to chat with. The cannoli station was definitely a guest favorite and was well worth the money. I would highly recommend it.
We were so happy to have Gerardo’s Italian Bakery be the vendor for our wedding cupcakes and top tier wedding cake! The process was super simple, the cake options are all so tasty, and the prices are extremely affordable. We were so happy to see the final result of our cupcakes and top cake—the cupcakes were a HUGE hit and everyone enjoyed them! We give Gerardo’s the highest recommendation for any wedding cake/cupcake needs!
I set up a dessert bar for my daughter's bridal shower and orders crème puffs, macaron, cherry bombs, eclairs, petit fours and an exceptionally gorgeous cake. My guests raved about the decorating and that everything was so delicious.
Our cake was DELICIOUS but Gerardo was anything but personable. We showed up at our meeting and it did not feel personable at all. We were definitely just another business deal. If he were not included in our venue package we probably would not have chosen them.
Gerardo’s made us a small cake for the cutting ceremony, cupcakes and cannolis and everything was delicious! They went so fast, we had no left overs and my husband and I actually took a second bite following the first just because it tasted so good!! We’ll be going back to gerardos for all of our cakes!! It was super affordable and everything was done exactly how we asked. Easily a top contender for favorite bakery and wedding vendor that we used!
We loved Gerardo's. The owner was so incredibly nice and great to work with. Our cake was exactly as I described and more beautiful than I envisioned. He even checked in with me a few times to go over some things which I really appreciated. Most importantly the cake was so absolutely delicious. When we cut the cake during our reception we just wanted to stand there and have another slice it was so good.
We also had a cannoli station at our wedding provided by Gerardo's. It was an awesome touch. People raved about it. Also the staff provided by Gerardo's was great, they even packed up some cannoli's for our parents and us to take home. I am so happy we found Gerarado's. We do not live close to the bakery, but we will drive out of our way to get some more of their delicious sweets.
Working with Gerardo was amazing! The cake was delicious! (This coming from someone who usually skips the cake at weddings...) we had multiple flavors because we couldn’t pick our favorite. The design was beautiful as well! I’d highly recommend Gerardo’s!
OMG the most delicious cake ever.... what can I say! Gerardo is a friendly and professional man and his staff was great. We had gone to another baker and the taste just did not compare at all. Our guests raved about the cake for sure!
We chose Gerardo’s Italian Bakery to handle our wedding cake and dessert bar for our wedding and it proved to be a great decision. The ability to work with Gerardo and his staff to pick the correct desserts for our guests at extremely reasonable pricing was perfect for us. We wanted to offer a variety of options and that is exactly what we got. Gerardo provided delicious desserts that were favorites amongst our guests and the 1 tier cake we had as a couple was perfect (we would highly recommend the Vanilla Cake with Cannoli Frosting to anyone). Simply put, Gerardo’s is the top of our list for anyone looking for a dedicated bakery to handle their wedding. Thank you!
Gerardo's was great to work with. When we were looking at bakers, everything was a compromise, and what we were looking for all came at an additional cost, but not here. We cannot emphasize the value here enough. The cake was delicious (I sometimes dream about it still) and the price was reasonable with no up-charges. Also, when you order a cake here, they recreate the top layer for your one year anniversary. We cannot recommend Gerardo's enough, everything they did was perfect.
We were very happy with our wedding cake from Gerardo’s. It looked beautiful and tasted incredible. Gerardo was helping in determining the appropriate size to feed everyone and was able to perfectly capture the style we envisioned. But most importantly, it tasted so good! Thank you Gerardo’s!
Flavors are so good and Gerardo really helped us out. I picked a photo I liked and I picked one that had real flowers. He said I would have to go through my florist and pay for it. I was stressing out and asked if he could do something like it. He could tell I was overwhelmed so he offered to buy flowers and put them in himself for free. So nice of him
Gerardo was GREAT to work with! Made our wedding cake just as we wanted it and his prices were beyond reasonable!
The cake itself was DELICIOUS!!! We picked out the strawberry chiffon and it was like eating a cloud! My husband and I live in Northern RI, but will be traveling to Gerardo’s for any future cake needs.
Amazing! My wedding cake was exactly what I imagined and was delicious! Highly recommend this bakery for all cake/bakery needs.
We had the cannoli station and small cake from Gerardo's bakery for our wedding in October. Our guests loved the cannoli station! It was so delicious and the vendors were prompt. Only disappointment is we ran out of cannoli's so fast! We had 250 cannoli's for a wedding of 125 people and we ran out within 90 minutes of the station opening. If I did it again I would get more cannoli's. The wedding cake was beautiful and delicious as well.
Gerardo and his bakery are absolutely amazing. We got married at the Colonial Hotel on Sept 10th - the venue was supposed to include cake and we could pick from the 3 bakeries they work with. So we go to the first one and it is in a woman's basement, she spent hours talking about her personal life, it was so awkward. She wanted an extra $700 on top of what our venue gave her. Then we go to the second one, who forgot about our appointment, and told us that she did not know how she could afford to stay in business (alarming when your wedding is 15 months away) . The third one was a very nice bakery (comparable to Gerardo's) and told us we needed to pay an extra $1700 for the cake. Keep in mind that this cake has no flowers, very simply, just a small 4 tier cake. We were not sure what to do! So we went to a local bakery and they told us the cake is a $600 cake... Ok so now what! I told the venue we would have to use an outside bakery, and they were willing to work with us... We found Gerardos after doing some searches online for bakeries within an hour of the venue. I called the day after Thanksgiving and left a message (I did not expect an immediate reply, but it was my only day off so I wanted to get the ball rolling) - Gerardo called me back within an hour, told me their pricing and had me set up an appointment to come in for a tasting. We did come in, the tasting was amazing, the prices were amazing, and everything was perfect. We followed up 2 weeks before the wedding, went over the exact design, got a final quote (about $550) and left. They showed up on the wedding day and my cake was PERFECT. It tasted so GOOD, they were on time, brought boxes like we asked (we knew we would have a lot left over) - I mean I would give them 100 stars if I could. We went in the next day to bring back the cake stand and get our $100 deposit back (you get the money back when you bring the stand back) and I had a check waiting in the mail when we got home from our honeymoon - I will be getting all of my cakes from Gerardo from now on! I cannot wait to get our anniversary cake from him!
Amazing and delicious. He did the cake for my wedding and it was perfect. Due to a miscommunication with my coordinator we actually didn't have him booked, even though we thought we did, until a few weeks before the wedding and he was so understanding about it. He was still happy to do the cake for us and let us come in for a personal tasting (even though we had already done a group tasting with the venue). He also made a sugar free mini cheesecake for my father-in-law who is diabetic and it meant so much to us. This is someone who loves what he does and it shows through in both his service and his baking!
For our wedding we decided to order cupcakes for 200 guests from Gerardo's. They were delicious!! Gerardo was great to work with from the very beginning! The bakery offers a complimentary tasting where you get to try 7 or 8 slices of different flavors of cake, and can take home what you don't eat. We compared prices with other local bakeries and Gerardo's was by far the most delicious and best price for it's value. We were able to choose 4 different flavors of cupcakes, and on our 1 year anniversary they will remake the top layer for free, because "no one should have to eat frozen cake"! Our guests could not stop raving about the cupcakes.
Was several months late in requesting our anniversary cake top (a complimentary courtesy Gerardo provides with your wedding cake) and the team was happy to accommodate us. Everyone is always incredibly polite and professional, and these are the best cakes you'll ever eat!
We had the cannoli station and a small cake for our wedding. Both were delicious! (And I am picky about my cannoli!) We met with Gerardo himself for the cake tasting and he was very easy to work with. The staff who tended the cannoli station were super friendly and even boxed up the leftover cannoli for us. Cake prices are VERY reasonable! Would definitely hire Gerardo's again.
Perfect! Could not have asked for better service.
Everything was fabulous for our wedding day. The cake was delicious and so were our cupcakes. Gerardo and the rest of his staff were so professional and helped with everything that we needed. We are so looking forward to our fresh cake for our one year anniversary. Thanks again!
We ordered our wedding cake from here. It was a great price, exactly as requested. Came out beautiful, was delivered on time. Also had one person in our wedding guests allergic to gluten. Asked Gerado and he considered one of our slices to be a gluten free cupcake. The cupcake made her day, she has never been able to eat wedding cake at a wedding before, and was absolutely thrilled. Gerados didn't nickel and dime us either. Every other place charges if you add a design, if you want a color on your cake. I wish I could give more than 5 Stars!
Gerardo makes delicious cakes and does a wonderful job decorating them! We sent him a picture of how we wanted the design to look with the frosting and were so happy when we saw the cake on our wedding day. It was exactly what we wanted. The cake was so good too! We got many compliments from our guests on how much they loved this cake, some even saying it was the best cake they've ever had! His prices are very reasonable as well. Great place to get your wedding cake!
We had the best experience ever working with Gerardo and his cakes are amazing! He answered all of our questions and let us take home all of the samples from our cake tasting. Our wedding guests raved over the cannoli bar! It was a huge hit with our wedding guests. They are also going to provide us with a fresh cake topper for our 1 year anniversary. You won't regret getting your cake from Gerardo's!
Got 250 cupcakes from Gerardo's they were so so so delicious, people were raving and he provided to-go containers for the cupcakes for people to take them on their way out! He was a pleasure to work with and I definitely will get cakes/cupcakes/pastries from him in the future!
Gerardo's bakery was the best decision for a baker! The cake we cut into was not only beautiful but was so delicious! Guests raved about the five different flavor cupcakes on display during dessert! I would highly recommend this bakery for your wedding cake!
We had a 3-tier cake and the cannoli station at our wedding and everything was delicious!!! The cake was gorgeous and turned out better than we imagined…it was incredibly tasty too!! The cannoli station was such a hit with our guests…we received many compliments about how yummy and fun it was to have that at the wedding. Besides the great tasting cake and cannolis, working with Gerardo was very easy. He took our vision and turned it into exactly what we wanted. And at this bakery, you cannot beat the price for what you’re getting. We will definitely be going back to Gerardo’s for future events/functions!!
My review is for their other site, Gerardo's European Bakery in Westborough. Our wedding cake was an incredible disappointment. We ordered their special Italian Rainbow Cookie cake and it was not good. It was nothing like the cake we had sampled from them months prior. I have pictures of each cake and they are clearly different; it looks like two different recipes. When I called a week or so after our wedding to share my disappointment and asked for a manager, the head baker called me back. She basically told me what I was saying wasn't possible because they only have one recipe for this cake. My husband and his entire family were with us when we tried the first cake and can vouch that our wedding cake was NOT the same cake. The baker all but called me a liar and wouldn't even listen to me. Our wedding cake was soggy and and drenched with jam.
We also have given instructions to include white sugar flowers on the cake but the baker called us the day before our wedding to ask if we wanted fruit on the cake... that wasn't what we had asked for.
The cake and the customer service was such a let down. Look elsewhere for your cake, you may not get what you asked for on your WEDDING day.
Literally the best cake I have ever tasted. I received so many compliments on how perfect the cake tasted and looked. We picked the Ricotta and Strawberry cake oh my goodness! Heavenly delicious! I gave Gerardo's ideas of what i wanted and he made my dream wedding cake come true! We got married this past October. I wanted the cake to have pumpkins and leaves. His team made it come to life. Thanks again for everything!!!
Gerardo's wedding cakes are amazing! Great quality for an amazing price. Everyone at my wedding loved the cake. Even people that don't typically eat dessert had multiple slices! Gerardo does not freeze cakes so you know your cake will be fresh and delicious. As a one year anniversary gift, Gerardo makes you a top tier to celebrate so that you don't have to eat frozen cake. I highly recommend using Gerardo's for your wedding cake!
My husband is part Italian and gravitates towards Italian bakeries as it is so we had to visit Gerado's when planning our wedding. Gerardo himself met with us and gave us samples to try for the cake. This was by far our most favorite wedding vendor meeting! The cake flavors all tasted great and Gerado was so friendly. We gave our deposit that day to reserve our wedding day. We came back for our follow up meeting and decided to have cupcakes with a small cake on top for cutting. Gerardo gave us three different flavor options for the cupcakes and the stand to use for free. They also decorated the cupcakes and cake with fall leaves which were beautiful. The day of the wedding the cupcakes and cake exceeded our expectations and our guests gobbled them up. I would highly recommend Gerado's bakery.
We ordered our cake and cupcakes and an assortment of Italian cookies from this bakery. Gerardo was great, he got right to the point and gave us the most delicious tasting. We gave him exactly what we wanted and it came out beautifully. A definite recommendation!!!
We went with the signature strawberry ricotta wedding cake and it was fantastic. It was great that we got to try so many different options at the tasting and we were able to bring home some leftovers for our parents to try as well. The cake on the day of was beautiful, exactly what we asked for, and delicious. I didn't actually eat my piece until later in the evening when we were back in our hotel (thankfully our venue gave us a to-go box for the bride and groom because my parents had the leftover top). I wish I had asked about a cake stand, but that's my own fault, and it looked beautiful anyway. Can't wait to have a fresh cake on our first anniversary!
If you're looking for the most delicious cake you've ever had - look no further. Gerardo's is simply the best! We had a cupcake display with 5 different flavors and a 7-inch round to cut at our wedding, and everything was perfect. The cake and cupcakes were decorated beautifully, the cake was moist and mouth-wateringly good! Better yet, you can't beat Gerardo's prices. The value is incredible, and I'm so happy we chose him to make our wedding cake and cupcakes!!!
Absolutely the best wedding cake!! All our guests said it was the best they've ever eaten! It was exactly as we had ordered, delivery was right on time, they put the topper & baby's breath on as they said they would. It could not have been more perfect.
Our wedding was this past weekend and our cake was stunning! Our guests raved about the amazing flavors, we had three, with many opting to try each flavor! The price of the cake was amazing as well, it was one of the least expensive items we paid for our wedding! We cannot thank Gerardo's enough for our gorgeous cake!
We got our cake at Gerardo's and it was amazing! Not only did it look beautiful but it was delicious - we received so many compliments on how good it was! They made the whole process so easy and we're so happy we got our cake here. We highly recommend them!
Delicious and very affordable! The cake was beautiful and it was a relatively easy process. We had the cake tasting in January with no talk of design and then met the week of our wedding to design our cake and choose flavors. Try to write down which flavors you and your fiancé like because we didn't remember and went off based on popularity.
We had our cake done at Gerardo's for our wedding and absolutely loved every bite! There was no left overs at our wedding, the guests all loved the flavors and how fresh the cake tasted. and not to mention how beautiful it turned out! SOO glad we went with Gerardo's, they will be our go to for every occasion from now on!
I love Gerardo's bakery. They are much more reasonably priced than their competitors and their cake tastes better too! They were very easy to work with and made a beautiful "naked" cake for the wedding! I'm so happy we went with them for our wedding cake.
We were so very pleased with our cake from Geraldos!!! It was so light and yummy!!! We had the top at a party the next day and it was even better than I remembered. I also loved that he worked with our florist to complete the look (half naked cake with real roses and baby's breath all around).
I can't wait until our one year and we get to have the cake again!! We also loved all the treats we picked up when we went into the store.
Gerardo made my day!!!! My wedding cake was EXQUISITE!!!
He honestly gave me a $3,000 wedding cake for a price I can't even say on here!!!
God bless you Gerardo!!!!
We found Gerardos through word of mouth from a friend. They made us the most delicious cake we've ever had. Everyone loved it. They were open to any kind of customization you could think of. They had books full of pictures of potential decoration styles and great suggestions on what would work for us. I highly recommend this vendor as the cake was amazing for a much better price than you can find elsewhere. We even get a free topper on our 1 year anniversary!
My husband and I chose Gerardo's to make our wedding cake, and I am so glad we did . We chose their signature flavor ( strawberry ricotta) and it was a hit, everyone loved it ! Not only was the cake so delicious , but it was so beautiful as well ! Gerardo did an amazing job, it was perfect !
Gerardo's was great to work with and made a beautiful cake. We had an idea of what style and flavor we wanted, and Gerardo's made our vision turn into a reality.
