“This lady is amazing!! I don’t know about any other reviews, she always comes through for me. I love her work m. Been a customer for years.“

“Realized I didn’t close my bag of wafer paper all the way so it was brittle and couldn’t print on it for my cake order. Needed more last minute when OF COURSE my Amazon order with more wafer paper sheets in it didn’t show up! This place wasn’t far and super sweet! Really great to know that if I need some last minute items I can get them locally from a small business instead of ordering from Amazon. Thank you for being here and being so sweet! Will definitely be back! Definitely recommend they have TONS of items for a small store! I’m talking TONS!“

“We couldn’t be happier with the cakes the Mad Baker has created for us over the years. She isn’t just a baker, she’s an artist. The cakes are perfect aesthetically and are equally as delicious. Thank you Mad Baker for helping make our daughter’s birthday parties even more magical with your cakes.“

“The customer service was excellent and French vanilla cupcakes was delicious. I will be returning soon.“

“Nadiya did our gender reveal for my husband and I. We were so eager to find out we asked if she could do it in 2-3 days and she said yes. And she got it done! Nonetheless, I didn’t give any input on what the cake should look like and was totally ok if it was just a while boring cake on the outside. It wasn’t though! We got it home and looked and it marveled at all its intricacies. It was so beautifully decorated with bows and tons of detail. For the price we paid and for her wonderful craftsmanship we will definitely go to Nadiya again for our baking needs! Not to mention we loved the taste and so did our furbabies that did the cake cutting with us! 🩷“

“We stopped the Lake Mills Oasis on our way back to Wisconsin and could not resist picking up 6 cupcakes at a table they had there. AMAZING…. Embarrassed to say we ate all six in one day. Each one was incredible but I think the carrot cake was our favorite. Seriously best cupcakes we ever had!!!“

“Best bakery ever!!! Absolutely everything is delicious!!!“

“I’ve gotten my daughters birthday cake from here for the last two years and I don’t think I’ll use any else. Gina has been easy to work with and super creative. The cakes were delicious with amazing decoration and detail. Party goers were super impressed and the cost really wasn’t that much more than a basic cake from grocery stores.“

“First time coming, and I wasn't sure they accepted credit cards, but they do, so that's great. The flavor of the bread is good. The employee is very nice. I got some bread for día de los Muertos ? and the turtle concha ? was so cute my kid didn't want to eat. The place is clean and very nice decorated. Street parking. I'll be returning because I want to try their cakes.“

“My favorite birthday cake that I’ve ever had! Decorated beautifully and tasted great. The frosting had just the right amount of sugar and was so smooth and the best frosting I’ve ever had! The cake was very moist. The macarons on top were also very good! The strawberry macaron tasted like a fresh strawberry. I will order all my cakes from her in the future!“

“Great family owned bakery. The lady was super friendly and helped me place a concha order for work. They make all their bread fresh every morning. They have a wide variety of options from conchas to bolillos and they even sell cheesecake and custom cakes for any event. They were fairly priced not to expensive and the cheesecake was so fluffy and creamy.

Parking: Free street parking in front and free back lot

Kid-friendliness: Yes family and kids welcomed“

“Good food from the restaurant. The bakery didn't have much to offer was told I had to come back in afternoon for their pan frances which is strange because I feel it's something that should have been available as it was only 10am on a Monday. What I did buy was good though. I was not disappointed.“

“We picked up a Star Wars birthday cake for our 4 yr old son and it was absolutely incredible. We were looking for a cake without high fructose corn syrup, fake dies and a light natural tasting cake and this was it. We also ordered cup cakes to bring to our son’s school the following day. Thrilled with our cake and will come back for all future cakes. Thank you!“

“I absolutely love this bakery. The food that they have is amazing! I can buy a whole bag of baked goods for even better prices! They also accept Snap. When I walk in the door the woman there is always super friendly, and Salazar Bakery is always clean.“

“Daisy’s made an incredibly beautiful and delicious cake for my wife’s surprise 65th birthday party and took care of all the decorations. Everything was perfect! Highly recommend and will use them again!“
