We had the BEST time at Punky Cake yesterday. My daughters and I took the cake decorating class and had so much fun and learned so much from Ashely! Ashley has such an amazing energy and taught us all the steps and techniques needed to make a double layer 8” rainbow cake! The experience was so fun we can’t wait to go back for another class! We were able enjoy eating the cake with our family and we are pretty picky about cakes and we ALL raved about the flavor and how it wasn’t too sweet and heavy. The flavor was a perfect balance of flavors. We were all very impressed!! Thank you Ashley and Punky Cakes you’ll be seeing us again very soon!

Been here twice now. The first time we got a bunch of mini cupcakes and the second time we tried two different large sized cupcakes, pumpkin with cream cheese and a funfetti. Then there was one cake pop left so I snagged that as well. The owner said it was from a custom order so i just got lucky. All the cupcakes were average. Not white my preferred cake texture but taste was fine. I love cake pops so I wish they had those permanently, that would definitely make me want to go back! I'll probably go again either way though since the location is convenient. They do keep their items chilled in the fridge so if you plan to eat right away keep in mind you may want to wait instead. I would recommend this place! Nice owner too!

Thank you for my perfect, delicious, specific birthday cake. You made my day!

I ordered a cake from this bakery last week. Not only did they accept my order last minute, they followed up with a ton of questions and suggestions that made the end result well beyond my expectations. The restaurant we had our birthday festivities at said it was the coolest cake they'd seen out of the hundreds that come through. I was incredibly impressed/grateful and would recommend Punky Cakes to anyone!

What a lovely little bakery. My son wanted six of the cupcakes. They had a fun colorful fruity pebble, Oreo chocolate, salted caramel. The person at the front was so pleasant and courteous. Thanks for our sweets!!! Made a little boys day

Her cakes are really good and they are beautifully decorated and made from scratch. My family has brought two cakes from here, and each time, they have been absolutely delicious. And my family loves her cakes.

Ashley has made 3 cakes for me over the past couple of years and not only are they beautiful but they taste amazing too!

Stopped in to curb a sweet tooth and their Swiss Meringue Buttercream is so light and delicious! I had the vanilla/vanilla cupcake

We had high hopes for this "new to the neighborhood" bakery, but have been thoroughly disappointed. The baked good are decent, but overpriced. Ordered a cake in trying to give to a small business, but it was a real letdown. Aside from being expensive (which is ok if the product is worth the price) we did not receive the cake we asked for, missing quite a few elements, and the cake itself was dry and outer layer gummy, even for fondant. The small one layer cake was packed in a very large cardboard box, that allowed the cake to shift and unable to fit in a standard fridge. Overall was just not a great experience for us, but wish them the best of luck.

Ashely has put together a Great Business and Team! Everything is delicious when we come in! We placed an order for a custom cake for my daughters birthday, the cake exceeded our expectations! I highly recommend this business!
