I ordered some macarons, cupcakes and a 10" Ferrero Rocher Chocolate cake from here. My first impressions? The macarons were good, but not great. Rate an 8. The chocolate cupcakes had an unpleasant dense texture. Could have used a bit more sugar as well. Frosting was delicious however. Rate a 6. The 10" cake cost $100 but the cake was very tall. Unfortunately the cake suffered from the same problem as the cupcakes which had an overly dense texture. Rate a 6. Maybe it's only their chocolate batter that I don't care for since they many other types of cakes. Nevertheless my experience was a big disappointment based on the high expectations derived from other reviews. I definitely won't be returning here for their chocolate based works.

Once we found this Bakery gem, we could not stay away. We ordered 4 coconut macaroons each of our 3 trips there. Another favorite of ours was their delicious Lilikoi bars. Do not shy away from the cupcakes either, the mocha chocolate and double chocolate were moist and awesome. Friendly staff and no lines. Will not disappoint

OMG, Queen Emma cake was suburb. I ordered this cake for my daughters birthday while visiting on Island. Christine's constant and clear communication kept me in the know and the cake was delivered flawlessly. The flavors were perfect and representative of the island.

Best Coconut Macaroons I have had in a long time. The Fruit bars are delicious.... Take your family and your friends here for a treat to remember.

We had the most wonderful experience meeting and designing the wedding desserts with CakeWorks! They were flexible and creative and worked with us for 2 years to make sure everything was perfect! The cake, cookies and cupcakes were delicious and beautiful!

Beautiful, amazing wedding cake. I am gluten free and this was hands down the best gluten free cake I've ever had. People went back for a second slice! We also had the dessert table which was delicious! My wedding planning style was very hands off. They did all the decor without input and it was perfect.

I've been to Cake Works several times to buy Mink macaroons over the years. We have also ordered birthday cakes here for friends but I haven't tried anything from Cake Works till recently. Anyone who knows me knows that I'm not a huge dessert fan which is why I haven't tried anything from here. The only reason I tried a slice of their cake was because Mink went out of her way to throw me a surprise birthday party and ordered me a sloth cake from here. The funniest part of this rather pricey cake is that literally 5 minutes before I arrived at the surprise party, a friend's son decided to play with it when his parents looked away for a minute. His parents freaked out and tried to repair the damage the best they could. He's only a little over 1 year old and kids will be kids. Mink and I couldn't stop laughing when we heard what happened. It was super cute and his little contribution to the party lol. After all the effort from everyone, I ate a slice of the cake. Since I'm not a cake expert, I couldn't tell you if it was good or not but it was special and I enjoyed it. Now I have a story about the cake and a new hilarious memory. Thank you to Mink for this very special sloth cake. Also, thank you to Cake Works for making this cake for my birthday and for consistently providing good customer service. We will definitely be back to order more cakes in the future for our friends.

Wow all my regular places I go yearly I have not reviewed???? Oh oh my....I've been coming to this place for several years off and on, but in recent have discovered their hot chocolate cake for christmas and its been our dessert table stable for 2 years, not to mention I love their ginger bread cookies. Order online or you can walk in, ample parking just a little funky to get to. They always have a person at the counter to service you if not somone comes up quick quickly. If not, you can browse their shelves of baked goods. We've tried their Hot chocolate cake, cupcakes, macaroons and bagged cookies, our favorite is their cake. Unfortunately, this past christmas the cake was not as moist as previous years, not sure what happened, but still was good, just not as moist as past. Their other products are good and their decorations on their cakes and other baked goods are so so pretty. This location is the former Ted's (thats giving my age) renovated to a bakery, so you can actually walk in and check out the goods, versus the original Teds it was only take out windows (which are still there too). It's outside is okay, needs a good deep clean and maybe fresh paint on the exterior but the inside is okay, just a neighborhood bakery.

yummy cupcakes at a reasonable price! Previously bought from The Girls Who Bake Next Door but they've apparently merged. Despite being further away from the west side, the quality is still top notch!
