19 Best Bakeries in Cedar Rapids

“Becky at Two Marie Cookies was amazing to work with! She had great suggestions, which we used, and our logo cookies turn out absolutely gorgeous! She was very careful not to package cookies before the frosting was perfectly set. She made all the best professional decisions. Becky helped us have the perfect ribbon cutting at Costa Oil in Marion. She is worth EVERY penny she gets. Thank you Becky!“

“I got a custom cake for my wedding and where do I begin. It was so what I wanted and so delicious. I actually just finished the last piece of the chocolate layer last night and almost a week later it was still moist and good as it was last Saturday. We have been discussing our design for a half sports half traditional cake since January 2022 and Jessica had great communication through the whole process. She would check ever so often to make sure we got the cake we dreamt of and it did change slightly over the course of 11 months but it turned out exactly the way I had dreamt. I got so many compliments on how cute it was. I will be going back to Jessica and The Red Top Bakery for future cakes. Hands down one of the best cakes I have ever had.“

“There is so much to love about Anh’s! I have a major sweet tooth and nothing found in big chain stores compares to her baked goods. She makes it super easy to see her menu for the day on FB and IG, and even takes orders over messenger so I can pick up later in the day without worrying something will be sold out. I have to shout out the front staff too, they’re always so kind and welcoming! My favorite treats so far: Korean cream cheese bun, cinnamon roll, cowboy cookies, and extra delicious pistachio cream bun. Also, try the shokupan!“

“the croissants were amazing!“

“The cake was extremely fancy for a birthday party, but that was the point! My partner and I have been looking for potential cakes for future events, and KC Cakes & Cajun has been on our list for some time. So, we got a layered marble cake with the full Minecraft theme for our son's birthday party to try it out, and goodness, it didn't disappoint! Check out the chocolate in the marbling!!! The kids and adults were very pleased, and we had a great celebration! We sent KC Cakes & Cajun a picture of our son's birthday invite for inspiration for the cake's design, and they nailed it! The cake was dense but moist and full of flavor, and the icing was to die for - sweet but not too sweet! We got the 10in layered round cake for about ten people, and with the layering, everyone felt full with a single piece - to give you an idea of size. If you need a cake that can't be beat, especially for a special occasion or event, they'll get you squared away! They are at a new location downtown at 210 3rd Ave, by the Paramount!“

“Finally found it today! She is inside the Collins Credit Union Building. The chicken salad croissant was one of the best ever. Add a cashew and a grape and it would take the record! Hubs said the Mac and cheese was great. Cheesy and a larger portion than he expected. Too full to try my cupcake!! The location was a bit odd at first but there's a couple of tables set up at the end of the lobby and the guy from the back came and turned in the fireplace for us! Service was top notch! Im going to call ahead for pick up next time but there will def be a next time!“

“Always the best!! Friendly staff & great selection! I’m a birthday PIE person.. and Kathy’s Pies is my go to bakery, for sure!“

“These people are THE BEST and the bread is freaking AMAZING! They also give back to the community and support local.“

“We tried a traditional beignet and a glazed one. Cooked to order. Light, fluffy deliciousness ! The glazed one had a sweet and yummy almond glaze. Will be back to try some more items including the caramel cake.“

“the cookies are always very fresh, crumbl never disappoints with their cookies, i also love the fact that they give you a free cookie as a birthday gift, i always look forward to having crumbl every once and a while. probably the best cookies i’ve had!!!“

“Only been here twice, but the employees were really nice and cheerful, always helpful and patient, and the donuts are wonderful, was plenty stocked when going in too. Seriously probably better than Dunkin'. They have their unique cherry-filled/glazed donut I think everyone should try and lots of other flavors including classic ones.“

“Great and affordable food and great staff 🙏❤️“

“Have been here a few times now, and it’s exceptional. Everything I’ve gotten has been incredibly delicious, and staff has been super pleasant! If the weather is nice, definitely eat outside!“

“My daughter's 16th birthday cake was perfectly moist and flavorful and the decorations were intricate and professionally done!“

“Had a great cupcake today! I need to visit more.“

“I went to Happy Hour for $5.00 appetizers and boy that was a mistake! The chicken tasted old, it was in huge pieces, I found a chicken bone in it too. They probably use left over Rotisserie Chicken for it. I felt sick after eating it too and had to take some antacids. Hy-Vee Market need to use fresh food. I couldn't finish my appetizer. It tasted horrible!“

“Delicioso :) comida autentica Mexicana.“

“ate here today for 2nd time lately. wife had everything omlete breakfast for 16 bucks(outrageous price), I got ham and cheese and muchroom omlete breakfast and was 14 bucks. waitress never once checked on us after a rude lady dropped off our food. I couldn't get a water refill at all. we waited for 15 minutes after eating and finally went to front Counter since Noone brought us a check. gal at front desk was pretty rude when I let her know i was not very happy with service but she didn't care, didn't even get I'm sorry for your experience or anything. last time I will eat at this location. also the seat coverings are ripped up and uncomfortable.“

“I want to give a special thank you to Brad from my 8 year old Great granddaughter for egg nog for the 4th of July.“
