The Cake Gallery

too. Paul was awesome to deal with and I would definitely recommend to anyone in Rhode Island

es. Even after explaining the pricing, she doesn't take no for an answer and doesn't understand the cost of a wedding cake. Why she feels she should pay less than any other Bride is beyond me.

iled this business in May to try and place that order and were told to call on the phone to discuss it. We played phone tag for about a month before finally getting the owner, Paul, to talk on the phone. He told me that I would need about 5 cakes but I would have to visit the shop to order them. I live in Brooklyn, so we planned to visit at an agreed-upon time. When we drove up for our final trip to finalize wedding planning we found the shop closed when we arrived. A worker who happened to be there opened the door for us and assured us that since it was a simple order we could place it by phone. We went home and finally got Paul on the phone again, and he told us that despite the prices and flavors displayed on the board, he would charge us double the price for a wedding cake. When we said we didn't want a wedding cake then accused us of trying to build our own wedding cake and of making up all of the phone calls that we had previously had where we had discussed having 5 individual cakes at the price advertised in the shop. Throughout all of this, Paul was hostile and unfriendly. We'd been warned by a local business not to use Cake Gallery but were hoping since it was such a simple order it would turn it out okay. Now I wish I had listened.

cake, he used two adorable doggie (bride and groom) cake toppers made by the mother of the groom. Paul went above and beyond by adding a wide plaid ribbon with bow and dying coconut green to put under the Scottie dogs. Everyone was blown away, first by the looks and then by the cake itself - a white cake with lemon fruit filling. Next, for the wedding cake, which was two tiers of red velvet cake with cream cheese filling. Paul asked for a photo of flowers for the colors to be used and the gum paste flowers he created and decorated the top of the cake with only added to the simple, elegant cake, perfectly covered in cream colored fondant. The antique glass pedestal that my daughter chose to display the cake was not steady enough to hold the cake, so Paul went to work adding a foil covered pedestal to make it work. Again, no one could stop raving about the beauty and taste. The moist, delicious cake, together with Paul's artistic talent make The Cake Gallery the best yet. Unfortunately, I live in New York City, but next time I'm in Bristol, I'll be sure to drop in.

ful. Everyone loved it, and found it to be very unique. The price was also extremely reasonable compared to many in the area as well.

I will never use another baker again!!

ke he's ever had during our tasting....and to top it off, it was gluten-free. My husband is celiac. I used to go to the Cake Gallery when I lived in Bristol 10 years ago. When we picked our venue in Newport, I knew the Cake Gallery HAD to make my wedding cake. We were so impressed with the samples we tasted during our tasting that we also asked Paul to provide the cupcakes for our rehearsal dinner. Again, we had both gluten free and regular.

n a few people that multiple cupcakes/cake slices. I would not hesitate to go back to the Cake Gallery again. I highly recommend them!
