The West Side Bakery

eautiful than I had imagined and they tasted AMAZING! We received so many compliments from our guests about how delicious everything was and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you West Side Bakery!

their beautiful cake stands for my wedding. My wedding cake was made to perfection, decorated beautifully and tasted amazing. I HIGHLY recommend working with the West Side Bakery!

ing, I decided to surprise my husband with a groom's cake. We met with her again and she was happy to make the changes. My cake turned out exactly as I pictured, but even better the groom's cake was phenomenally done. It was a pretty intricate/life-like cake based on the Halloween movie Trick 'r Treat and I was worried it wouldn't come out life-like enough, but it was honestly perfect and everyone loved it. We had both red velvet and pumpkin spice and they were delicious! We even had guests asking if there was extra that they could take home.

delicious on our wedding day, as was the dessert tray we ordered from them!

bsolutely recommend them for any wedding!

icious! We even got a bridal shower cake and a rehearsal dinner cake from here since we wanted to take advantage of all excuses and reasons to celebrate with a West Side Bakery cake. Definitely recommend!

w it would look and she did just that! The cake at our wedding was just amazing! Absolutely delicious and beautiful and we could not have been more thrilled. Our guests loved it too and now I’m just counting down the days until we can have the cake topper on our first anniversary.

at my husband and I wanted for our cake and delivered our vision exactly! We would definitely recommend this bakery!

- lemon cake with lemon curd! Delish!

nd quality (seriously so delicious) are wonderful. Would highly recommend!

ought for a lot of guests as well. That being said, the coordinator here was not really listening when I asked her for quotes, I wanted a quote with a full 4 tier cake, as well as some with a faux or fake 4 tier cake and just the real layer on top for cutting purposes - possibly even having sheet cake in the kitchen if necessary. The price quotes were actually more for the fake layers (which makes absolutely no sense). She insisted on having enough for every guest. Until finally, I put my foot down and just purchased enough for half the guests and as I suspected, there was tons left over (a whole 30 pound tier to be exact) that was inherently wasted. So just be concise and direct with what you want, I gave in entirely too easy and did not ultimately get what I wanted.

ake parade in place of the traditional tiered wedding cake.

very pretty and held up well to the heat of the day. The lack of any leftovers was a true testament to how good the cupcakes really were!

nce!

re the event it would be perfect. We called 36 hours in advance to be sure (since we've had trouble before) and when we called they said no, it's been a busy week, we don't do those on the weekend. You are a bakery. That's all you should be doing. Now we have an event with NO cupcakes because of them. I was going to get my wedding cake from them but I will never step foot in that bakery again and I do not recommend to anyone. Chain grocery stores taste much better anyways and are more than accommodating. I am extremely disappointed with their customer service. It's a shame.

delicious! It made the decision quite easy! They had lots of different cakes to pick from and we found one that was exactly what we wanted. Barb coordinated delivery and they even decorated the cake with fresh flowers from our florist. The cake was beautiful and tasted fabulous. Great experience and would definitely use them again and again!

ely recommend

ood the cake tasted. The bakery staff was also very mindful of making recommendations for what type of cake would stand up to the 90+ degree heat on our July wedding day. Overall extremely satisfied!

o want to make my creative vision come to life the way Barbara did. She provided me with sketches, and really listened to and made note of any an all feedback I gave her. Everyone raved about all of the desserts in our dessert spread. We had almost no leftovers the next day. The one piece of feedback I'd give would be about their rentals. I wish they had had both more options and higher quality options for stands and serving-ware to rent for our dessert table.

ghly recommend this bakery. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!

Thanks West Side!

edding thanks to the left over cake. (Although the scale is not happy about it!) We're very happy customers!

out a bride who doesn't know what she wants yet. I knew exactly what I wanted, so they let me send them an image with some notes and they made it perfectly! Highly recommend the almond and spice cakes :)

gs! Their cakes taste fabulous and they have a whole book of designs to choose from, or you can create your own. Also, we did cookies from another vendor and one of the batches didn't come out so last minute I ordered a big order of canolis From West Side Bakery. They had them ready the next day and delivered them with my cake at no extra charge!

of the wedding! We choose a buttercream frosting with choc cake with pb filling and white cake with strawberry preserves filling. Received many compliments fro, our guests on how it was the best wedding cake they've ever had! I'd recommend them to anyone! Loved it!

cake. The owner is very accommodating and easy to work with. I would recommend this bakery to any bride!

o respond to any emails I had, which helped alleviate any wedding stress I had. Not to mention, the price was amazing, and even after adding more, still stayed within my budget. I would definitely use WestSide Bakery again, no hesitation.

fantastic to work with, very polite, professional, knowledgeable people who strive to give you what you want, but able to offer up recommendations based on their expertise. We did a dessert table with cupcakes and assorted pastries, and this was a huge hit with everyone at our wedding. When we had gone in to the bakery for our cake tasting, we both said they were the best cupcakes we'd ever had (I'm vegan -- so I got to sample those...wow!). So, it was no surprise that by the end of our reception, there was not a crumb to be had. We ordered extras thinking there would be leftovers for people to take home, but our guests ate EVERYTHING on that table!! My first piece of advice if you're reading this review is to use this bakery for your wedding cake/other baked goods, and my second is to order a whole lot of extra servings because they will go quickly!!

rble cake with vanilla buttercream. West Side Bakery was very easy to work with and really delivered an excellent cake.

u easy to select options. THEIR SERVICE IS AWESOME AND DOWN TO EARTH! The best part about their cakes is they look amazing and taste even more amazing. Our guests kept commenting on how much they liked the cake. (Not something you usually hear at weddings.) I highly recommend their spice cake with cream cheese filling. It was a huge hit at our winter wedding.

wberry filling, and chocolate cake with peanut butter. The cake was extremely moist and tasted so fresh. Now as for the appearance, it was more beautiful than I could have imagined. The cake was probably more expensive than I had anticipated, but for the overall quality and taste it was definitely worth the cost. Plus the cake had a lot of personal detail so it made it special. I want say that Barb was wonderful. I showed her 2 pictures of cakes that I liked and she looked up the original baker of one of the cakes to ask questions about the design. Working with the west side bakery was a great wedding memory and experience.

red velvet cake we received, it had a VERY strong chocolate taste. Much more so than the sample we had at our testing. We might as well have ordered chocolate cake. However, the almond cake with raspberry filling and the white cake with butter-cream filling we had were wonderful! Overall, we were pleased with how our cake turned out, and we would recommend West Side Bakery to others.

ake! The guest from the wedding happening in the room next door even walked over and stole some of our cake!

bout how awesome our cake was!! I would highly recommend the west side bakery to all brides! :) they really are the best!!

ion to life through the cake she made - it was exactly what I wanted it to look and taste like. While planning, she made suggestions and listed what I wanted. The cake looked great and tasted wonderful. All our guests commented on it and said they never had a better cake ever and talked about how delicious it was long after wedding... Her bakery made a custom cake for our wedding day and delivered it as well.

ting to stay within a reasonable (low) budget, and she gave us an estimated price and said it was doable. Months went by, and they never contacted us. We finally contacted them and set up an appointment to finalize the cake. I went in with my mom and she kept us waiting and then reprimanded us for waiting, telling me "most brides have their cake finalized by this point" and she "thought of calling me" but didn't, obviously. We explained to her what we were thinking and the price had jumped WAY higher without any explanation on her part. At this point we were desperate and had kitchen cakes made to help with the cost. If we had time we would have gone elsewhere. My mom kept trying to call in and the owner was always busy and could not be disturbed--as my mom put it, "quite the queen there." I tried so hard to keep to budget while wedding planning, and the unexpected cake total totally blew it. The owner was very hard to work with and belittling. In the end, the cake did NOT fit what I had described to her--and after paying so much! I was so mad I tried to put it from my mind during the wedding and not fixate on it. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT. Go elsewhere if you don't want to be taken advantage of. I know they have good reviews, but trust me. I've been there. The WORST wedding vendor by FAR.

oth were amazing! The cake was decorated exactly as I had pictured it and our florist added fresh hydrangeas to the spaces between the tiers. Just gorgeous! The only problem was that when we arrived at the reception the cake was leaning :/ Not terribly so, but if you look closely in our pictures you can see the leaning tiers. Luckily it didn't fall over! We did have to cut the cake earlier than we had planned, but no big deal! I would highly recommend the West Side Bakery! Wonderful to work with and they create lovely cakes!

h we really appreciated.

uted it flawlessly. It was a focal piece in the room and absolutely beautiful. Not only was the cake gorgeous, it was delicious. Truly fantastic!!

gorgeous display (employees at the wedding venue were taking pictures of the cakes before the reception even began)! It is incredible to have such a great experience all while paying an affordable price!

rbara was so sweet and got every detail perfect. Our guests were blown away by our cake and flavors. We had chocolate with caramel cream, vanilla with strawberry, pumpkin cream cheese and vanilla lemon. They all were so delicious!! We knew immediately once we were engaged that no one else would be making our cake besides West Side Bakery. The best part of choosing WSB is that I didn't have to stress out about how the cakes would turn out. You can put 100% trust in them and trust me that is very important while you're in the middle of planning a wedding. Thank you WSB!!

them differences between that picture and what we wanted, and it came out perfectly! Not to mention with this, everyone thought the cake was absolutely delicious. My husband and I both ate multiple pieces of it throughout our reception! They also allowed us to have three different flavors throughout our 6 layers. It was simply perfect!

ts loved having their own cake on their table. The cakes were very fresh and looked beautiful. I would recommend The West Side Bakery!

ts could not get enough of the desserts! They were not only tasty but BEAUTIFUL! Barb was also a delight to work with and made ordering very easy.

ell. Super easy to work with.

ies & cream and it was all delicious!

gs and ideas went back and forth for a while but in the end color was spot on and the taste was amazing! They also created an amazing spread of pastries and treats for our reception that were equally as beautiful and yummy. I will use them for every event I have in the future and would recommend any bride to meet with Barb and trust her team to create anything you want! Thank you again West Side for creating my dream cake!!!
