Had a very bad experience with this bakery. Personally took picture of wedding cake and was told by Max, the baker and owner, that he had done that style many times. It was a sim...
ple 3 tier with fresh greenery cascading on sides. Fresh flowers were to be on top. Wedding was for Sunday at 5pm. He called on Saturday at 5:45 wanting to know why wedding was not going on. He recorded wrong date. On Sunday, he arrived looking like a bum carrying a cake with no decorations except icing and the top layer leaning. Placed it on table and told wedding director she could just put some flowers on it and he left. Please do not use this bakery.
Our entire experience with Pawleys Island Bakery couldn’t have been more positive. A great, local, family place that was genuine and polite to work with. Our cake tasting was a lot...
of fun as we met with the head cake maker one morning and sampled every cake & icing flavor under the sun. She was very knowledgeable and professional and gave us all the time we wanted. She was able to make the cake look exactly like we wanted from a picture we sent her. It was delicious and moist with easy and reliable delivery. We also ordered a couple lunch platters with sandwiches, wraps, and salads that all turned out great as well. Big hit with everyone and not a crumb was left! Would highly recommend them for a wedding cake and really anything they make for that matter. All fresh and delicious.
Max and the gang at Pi bakery were amazing! From the tasting to delivering our cake/cupcakes they had it all covered
Best cake ever!

t up beautifully and all our guests RAVED about have great they were! He is very personable and easy to work with. We are so glad we chose him!
I worked with Max at Pawleys Island Bakery for my 9/14/13 wedding in Pawleys Island, SC. I have frequented Pawleys Island Bakery for breakfast and coffee on trips to Pawleys Island...
over the past 4 years, so I knew that I wanted to work with them for our wedding if at all possible. First off, Max and his wife are the nicest people and go out of their way to give A+ customer service. Additionally, the various types of cakes, fillings, and frostings they make are so delicious - it was hard to narrow down what we wanted for our wedding cake. We ended up hiring Pawleys Island Bakery for our wedding cake and also had them prepare a dessert table for our reception that included various types of cookies, dessert bars, and pastries that were all incredibly tasty. I was looking forward to heading over to the dessert table at the end of our reception to grab some leftover desserts to bring back to our room for a late-night snack; unfortunately, there was nothing left to take! Our guests had eaten every piece! I highly recommend Pawleys Island Bakery for wedding services, and I can't wait to go back and visit the next time I am in Pawleys and grab a lemon bar or two :)
Max came highly recommended for his work and delicious cakes! My husband and I were thrilled once we saw his work and we got to taste the cakes and knew we found the perfect one! ...
We absolutely loved our wedding cake and so did our guests...we had none left! But Max also helped in creating a donut-cake table that our guests got to enjoy which was also a huge hit! The best part of our cake was that it was lime green on the inside (our signature color) and it came out incredible.
We enjoyed working with Max and letting his creativity and experience help finalize all the details of the perfect wedding cake for us. We also used him for a desert tray for the bridal luncheon and again, everything was gone! Such a great, local bakery that I will enjoy for years to come!
I would have to say that I am a bit picky when it comes to cake and the designs of the cake, but Max and his staff did an absolutely amazing job! He made my cake even more beautif...
ul than I had imagined and everybody loved the different flavors that we had chosen. Plus, he throws in an anniversary cake for you so you don't have to save the top layer, awesome! Also, the bakery is a great place to visit no matter what. They have some great pastries, desserts, and dishes that everybody needs to experience!
We used PI Bakery for our wedding cake, reception cake and wedding desserts. Max was the easiest person to work with and the treats were all delicious!
Max and Pawleys Island Bakery were so great to work with! I love that they only use buttercream (not a fan of fondant), and the cakes look beautiful even in the SC heat! Not only w...

or our cake and cupcakes for the wedding. Overall they are delicious, affordable, and easy to work with!
We chose Max-the owner- of Pawleys Island Bakery after tasting his cakes at the bridal expo in Myrtle Beach in January 2012. We were told by so many others to look at other vendor...
s because they could make these beautiful pieces of artwork. After at first glance other vendors cakes were very extravagant but super sweet and sugary. Max's cakes were simply, beautiful and rich in flavor. We had a destination wedding so consultation was done via email and telephone mostly. Max was extremely pleasant when we were able to visit his shop. Our cake was simply beautiful, met all of our needs and people are still talking about how good it was. The cake was one of the highlights of our wedding day and Max let us customize it for a very reasonable price. If I am ever in town again, I would go to Pawleys Island Bakery just for the cupcakes. One word for Max and his staff...AWESOME!!!
Max was one of our favorite vendors that we worked with. He was very kind and accommodating to our wants and set the cupcakes and cake up PERFECT! It was just want we pictured.
Our cakes were amazing, they were the exact size, design & flavors we wanted. Max is very helpful and lets you take control of your own cake. Very happy with the results and ha...
ppy we went with them.
