As someone local, I have been to The Baking Grounds for breakfast, lunch, and to grab some goodies from the bakery. It was a no brainer for me to get my wedding cake done there. Th...
e process of tasting cakes was fun and easy. They were very helpful when picking out a design that fit our vibe and even accepted an inspiration picture from Pinterest. My cake turned out beautiful and so delicious I will be going back to get another cake on my one year anniversary and for other events as well! 10/10 recommend them!
Our cake was timeless and classic and we absolutely loved it!

y so we can have a round two of that delicious cake!
The cake was fantastic! The cake was such a hit that we were thankful they saved the top layer for use to enjoy! Everyone raved about it and the design was exactly how I pictured.

’ve ever had. The cake was a true centerpiece, with every detail executed flawlessly, and the cupcakes were a huge hit with our guests—everyone kept coming back for more!
The team at The Baking Grounds was a dream to work with. They took our vision and made it even better than we could have imagined, creating flavors that were as delightful as the designs. The level of care and craftsmanship they put into everything was evident, and it added such a special touch to our big day.
If you’re looking for a bakery that delivers both taste and artistry, look no further than The Baking Grounds. They exceeded all our expectations and gave us desserts we’ll always remember. Thank you for making our day so sweet and memorable!

ecommend :) Also, I'm GF as well as some of my close family members and they had GF options which was perfect.
They made my wedding cake dreams a reality! I showed them a picture that I wanted it exactly that way and they had no problem making it happen!
Our wedding cake was FABULOUS. This is the only wedding cake I’ve had that I actually thought tasted good… they make it fresh for the wedding and their buttercream is made with all...
butter (I’m a baker too, and believe me it makes a huge difference). The worker who delivered it also helped me arrange flowers that the florist left to put on the cake, even though it wasn’t her job (normally the florist is supposed to stay and do this themselves). Prices were reasonable as well compared to others in the area. Highly recommend!
We highly recommend The Baking Grounds for all of your wedding day cake needs! Not only were our wedding cake and groom's cake beautifully decorated, but they also tasted AMAZING!...
From the start, we wanted cakes that were traditional, and most importantly, we wanted cakes that tasted great and that everyone would love. Well, The Baking Grounds delivered and went above and beyond! For the groom's cake, we used a family heirloom as the topper, and they took wonderful care of it and truly made the cake so special for our family. We look forward to returning to The Baking Grounds and their wonderful family-oriented business for more of our cake needs in the near future - and even to grab a yummy, homemade breakfast!

The Baking Grounds made a wedding cake for my daughter and provided the entire dessert bar/table in late May 2022. From our first meeting in December of last year, the staff has be...
en nothing but professional and extremely nice. In fact, we were so impressed with their products that we made several trips between booking them in December and the wedding in May to go eat breakfast, or lunch, or just pick up great desserts. The staff in the store is always helpful and kind. Everything they make is top notch. The wedding cake was simple and beautiful. The dessert table, with dipped cookies, cake pops, cupcakes, petit fours, etc., was the talk of the wedding - especially the cake pops. We are so happy that we chose the Baking Grounds. Whenever we need dessert, for any occasion now, we will choose the Baking Grounds! Thank you!
We ordered a 4 tier wedding cake, grooms cake, and petit fours for favors from The Baking Grounds. All of them were delicious!! Our guests loved the cakes and raved about the desig...

re a huge hit among our guests! Thank you to Melinda and all the Baking Grounds team!
We hired The Baking Grounds a month before our wedding date, because our initial cake vendor closed shop (COVID-19...).
The cake design and the taste were both what'd confirmed!
...
However, our wedding colors were Emerald, Black, and Gold. I told the owner to have the main flowers Emerald, and have the mini flowers black, with a hint of Gold.
We received blush flowers and white mini flowers instead, which didn't go with our color schemes at all.
Overall, our guests thought the cake was delicious!
Our cake was fantastic! When we went in for our tasting, we had so many options, but they were able to customize our cake to our specific tastes and design ideas. The delivery was ...

I have been a long-time fan of The Baking Grounds, and when it came time to decide on a bakery for my wedding cake, there was no competition! The cake tasting experience was so fun...
and we left SO full from trying everything. We selected The Baking Grounds for our four-tier wedding cake and the grooms cake. They knocked both out of the park and I continue to receive compliments on how amazing the detail was on the grooms cake (my husband is a police officer and I incorporated his badge into the cake - it looked identical!). The flavor, icing, and filling variety offered by The Baking Grounds in unparalleled. I cannot recommend their services enough!
Baking Grounds was wonderful to work with! The cakes are not only BEAUTIFUL but also absolutely DELICIOUS!
Both of our cakes were exactly what we wanted and tasted amazing! Highly Recommend!
The Baking Grounds is a family-owned company, which I loved. From the first time I went to the bakery, they went above and beyond to accommodate me. The cake tasting was free and D...
ELICIOUS. Malinda sat down with us and made sure she understood exactly what we were looking for. She was up front about pricing and different options for how to save. They are very reasonably priced and so so good.
The cake turned out beautifully. It was absolutely one of my favorite details about the wedding. I got so many compliments. It was everything I had asked for. They also did a grooms cake for me that was perfect! It was an odd request (a turkey), but they did it better than I could ever imagine. It was a hit with my husband both in looks and in taste!
I would absolutely hire them again. In fact, I am using them now for birthday cakes, shower cakes for friends, etc. They are phenomenal!
Cute place, great service, great value for money, and absolutely delicious and beautiful cake! Super easy to work with and we were thrilled with both the wedding and grooms cakes.
The Baking Grounds did a fabulous job on the wedding cake and the grooms cake! They were not only exactly what we asked for but they tasted amazing!

ted it to be. The cake surprisingly was the hardest part for me and my now husband to figure out. After talking to my florist, they recommended The Baking Grounds! Looked online and their cakes were Amazing!!!!! Went in and was able to try the different flavors, the woman that helped us gave her advice on the best filling for each specific cake, and even had a couple options for the top layer that she knew would last a while and still be fresh come the one-year anniversary. My guests raved about the cake and kept asking me where I had gotten it. It was sweet but not too sweet and you didn’t feel like 1,000 pounds after having a slice! I still go back to The Baking Grounds for birthday cakes and pastries! I went from dreading my wedding cake to absolutely loving it! I had a fragile cake topper and was able to leave it in their possession without any worry.
LOVE LOVE LOVE! These cupcakes were amazing!
The Baking Grounds was a great choice for both the wedding cake and the groom's cake! Loved the choices available and the skill work that was applied to both cakes! Delicious cake ...
and I would highly recommend the almond cake as it was a hit at our wedding!
Excellent service- delicious cake! Exactly what we wanted!

, and planned most of her wedding long distance, so she never got to meet with Malinda from The Baking Grounds in person to select her wedding cake. Malinda had to rely on pictures and relayed information. Despite that, the cake was perfect, exactly what my daughter wanted, and best of all, it tasted as wonderful as it looked!
I highly recommend the Baking Grounds- they will exceed your expectations!

Easiest process ever! I did not have to worry about a thing-- I was planning the wedding from out of state and they took care of everything! The cake was absolutely gorgeous and ta...
sted like heaven! I was worried about cost and she recommended that we do a Styrofoam cake and then cut the slices from sheet cake. It was the best decision--saved a bunch of money and the Styrofoam cake was iced and had our flowers on top and no one even knew (even the groom--he kept trying to cut through the Styrofoam, lol). Overall super easy, delicious and reliable!
The cake for our wedding was excellent!! We did a custom design from a picture on Pinterest and they nailed it! Beautiful & delicious 😋
Amazing! We had 3 cakes made for our wedding, one more traditional 3 layer naked caked, and two "un-traditional" cakes, a reeses cup peanut butter cake and a layereed chocolate chi...
