Simply Cakes and Cupcakes

What a delightful experience at this bakery. I called 5 days before my granddaughter's 5th birthday to order a cake for her. I was told that they were completely booked up with cake orders for the weekend, and that they could do cupcakes. Since my granddaughter had her heart set on a cake, I asked if they could do a simple unicorn design. Anna told me to send a pic of what I had in mind, and they would see what they could do. So I did, and she sent back a cake pic that was beautiful and more detailed than I expected. The cake we picked up was absolutely stunning and the taste was delicious. I am so happy that we have discovered this bakery and will order from them anytime I need a dessert for a party. They also were extremely communicative and personable. Bakeries are hard to find these days, and good ones are a real treasure:)

I placed an order (over 1 month in advance) for 20 cupcakes and 15 cake pops for a baby shower. I was charged extra because I asked for buttercream flowers on top of the cupcakes (which was considered custom). I also ordered cake pops with various pastel pink, green, yellow, blue colors to match the theme.

I was required to pay for the entire order in advance. No refunds.

I dropped in a couple weeks prior to the shower just to confirm the instructions. The order was written for the correct date but not the correct day. (It was supposed to be Saturday and was down as Sunday). Whew, glad I checked. No biggie. We fixed it and all was set.

Shower day:
The cake pops were pretty and tasted good, but there were only pink and blue -no yellow, or green. I mentioned it when I picked them up and was told it was a misunderstanding with the directions on the order. It certainly was not the end of the world, so I left without making it an issue.

The cupcakes did have flowers as I requested and tasted great, but I ordered choc, vanilla AND red velvet. Unfortunately, once I arrived at the shower, it became obvious there were no red velvet cupcakes.

Like I said, everything was tasty, but I am disappointed. They are only cupcakes and pops, but the added expense and terms didn’t live up to the expectations.

Most bakeries require only a deposit with payment in full at the time of pick up.

Bottom line - there are many places to pick from. I won’t be going back for the many birthdays and other parties this child is going to have.

Where do I start, so a couple weeks ago I was searching for a place to creat a special order cake for my son’s birthday. I found the perfect idea online and contacted numerous bakeries in Orange County and sent a photo of exactly what I wanted. Most of them responded and stated they were not capable of making the cake. I found Simply cakes who stated they could make the cake and I moved forward with them. I provided them a picture of exactly how I wanted the cake to look. Well, on the day of pick up I was in shock. The cake was not what I had pictured at all. The quality of the design was just not there, the shape and width of the cake was not correct. The tire tread was not exact and you could tell it did not blend in well with the design of the cake. I was highly disappointed and in all honesty, I did not want to even pay for the cake but I had no choice since my son’s birthday party was two hours after pickup. If you are going with a custom cake, I would not recommend simply cakes . I did have to provide the topper myself which I had already agreed upon.

Ordering custom unicorn cupcakes for my daughter's birthday party was a smooth, easy process. The owner called me the same day I submitted my request to get details about what I would like and contributed his recommendations. I could not have been happier with the results. The cupcakes turned out beautifully and were incredibly delicious - moist cake without overly sweet frosting. I was so impressed with the whole process and will use Simply Cakes and Cupcakes in the future.

I messaged them inquiring about getting a small cake made, in which I was given the green light that they can make it by the date I needed and they just needed me to fill a request form out. I completed the form immediately, taking the time to go into detail, assuming the cake could be made by the date I needed as I was told, only to be told 2 days later that they are unfortunately booked now? So now I'm stuck without a cake. This has put me in an extremely inconvenient situation. Disappointed.

Ordered my nieces mermaid party cupcakes. They turned much better than expected. Coming back for my nephews birthday cake in June!
