This bakery has really gone downhill ever since they got a new person doing the baking. Her name is Nicki and can't even read off of the paper, she just went off of her mind. We ordered a wedding cake, white cake, strawberry filling, and cream cheese frosting. When we got there to pick up the cake she showed us the cake and I went over what I had ordered. I said, " it looks beautiful, it has strawberry filling and cream cheese frosting right?" Nicki (the baker) says, "no, the frosting is white buttercream, and the filling is cream cheese." I was discussed because it sounded horrible. She got the order form and wanted to correct me when SHE was in the wrong. We both looked at it and it had said " Strawberry filling with cream cheese frosting." Then Nicki says, " oh yeah.. there it is.." . I have never been this disappointed in a bakery before. Even Walmart can do a better cake than this. The cake was nothing but frosting and was super sweet to the point where it wasn't even edible. I had spent almost $300.00 for this pathetic, dry, discussing cake. Warning you now DO NOT order from this bakery.

We are so disappointed with Little London. They ruined my graduation cake. I specifically ordered a White sheet cake with Strawberry filling, and cream cheese frosting however, when I picked up the cake they used cream cheese as the filling instead of the Strawberry filling that I had requested. I payed over $200.00 and they got my cake entirely wrong. Nicki did NOT follow the directions on the order form because when we looked at it together it clearly said "Strawberry Filling". The cake was nothing but frosting and tasted overly sweet. We are so disappointed with this bakery who can not follow instructions on the order form. I will be looking for a new bakery.

The cake shop that has delicious treats and goes above and beyond, way beyond! I ordered a birthday cake for my mom and it was the best we have ever had. Nice fluffy cake, not dry at all, the filling was plentiful and the frosting was to die for! We have tried a lot of the area cake shops and this is the best, by far. Kris and Nikki were fabulous. It was a very snowy day and Nikki was actually out on her breaks delivering cakes to customers so they didn't have to brave the snowy roads. You just can't beat the taste or customer service, anywhere. Nikki even let me change the colors at the last moment. Thank you all for making 80 so stupendous!

Based on previous experience with this establishment we ordered a cake for a very important occasion, our parents 50th anniversary.However, I cannot stress enough, this bakery is living off of a legend of the past and is doing nothing but false advertising!!!The pictures on their website are from the previous owners, this is not what you can expect to receive today.Our cake was supposed to be a beautiful cream cake with a gold metallic drip, ready to host a 50th anniversary marker.What we received was a dismal cake, with an uneven top, amateur flowers piped around the edge covering what can only be described as runny Smuckers looking caramel. There was no shimmer, no metallic effect, only fools gold that made the cake appear as if it emerged from a horror movie.Cutting into the cake took too much effort, especially for such an expensive and important cake.The outside was covered in enough fondant to protect it from bullets, an obvious and tragic attempt to cover up the awful bitter taste of a dry spongy cake.What was supposed to be a beautifully light almond cake with fresh fruit purée between the layers was a dense, spongy chemical concoction that was held together with artificial fruit gel that almost glowed in the dark.Even if I were starving I would not eat this cake.I would do less than zero stars for this bakery. Sadly, the tasty treats they used to deliver are simply memories.See the pictures below showing the advertised and promised cake and, sadly, the subsequent pictures of what was delivered instead… (note the dent in the top they spackled over with frosting, see the caramel “mucus” that was supposed to be gold metallic cascading down the side).We managed to save the day, luckily, by grabbing a Chantilly cake from Whole Foods, which used real fruit filling and a gentle amount of frosting to cover a moist, light and delicious cake texture…If you have an important event, LOOK ELSEWHERE! They cannot bake here, and your event’s centerpiece will leave a bitter taste in everyone’s mouth.
Disappointing.We have purchased cakes from here for special occasions over the last 8 years. This is the last time. Not only does the cake look nothing like I requested, the customer service and communication is awful. I do not recommend.Take your business elsewhere.1. You cannot access them directly via phone. A few issues: no one answers the phone and the voicemail box is full.2. Email communication was unprofessional in the ordering process, which I just let slide but it should have been a warning of what’s to come.3. My pick up time was amidst a snow storm and I needed to change from flesh flowers (which they asked ME) to deliver to fondant or buttercream flowers. I emailed 2 days prior about the change due to the storm approaching and not being able to deliver flowers. I never received a reply to that email or a curtesy call. I call to confirm that pick up was still on and was unable to leave a message due to the full voicemail. I sent two emails and finally was ASKED to pick up within thirty minutes. Upon arrival, no one was there. I called numerous times and no one picked up. Finally, I spoke to someone who said someone would arrive in 3 minutes. 15 minutes later, she showed up and I received not a gold topped cake I requested but a very sloppy cake. It is horrible and not what I requested for my parents 50th anniversary.Do not use this bakery. This was a huge mistake.Below: the requested cake (with real flowers that they do NOT provide). We asked for white buttercream instead of the pink and to adjust to fondant or buttercream flowers when we were unable to deliver desired flowers.We received a yellow sparkle drip and a sloppy flower creation, which is lackluster for a 50th Anniversary.Do NOT use this shop.

We had a 10 year milestone party for my mom celebrating the survival of her pulmonary embolism! Little London Cake Shoppe provided the most delicious and gorgeous cake, but most of all were incredibly wonderful and pleasant to work with. Everyone at the party was asking where it came from, and I was able to pass out there provided business cards. I will definitely be doing business again with them

The cake exceeded my expectations! This was for my husbands 30th and it couldn’t have been better! This is the size of their smallest cake and the price was $65. I would definitely use them again!
