“Updated: I’m amending my review due to guest recovery. The was an effort made to earn my business back and that does not go unnoticed. I appreciate the customer care and the help from the store leadership. I can only hope my feedback offered a teachable moment for the young people who you employ. Revised to 4 stars for the way my incident was handled afterwards. Thank you for assuming responsibility and being quick to resolve the issue.

ZERO stars if this was an option! I ordered using the Cold Stone app. They used GrubHub to deliver. It took an hour from order to delivery. Upon delivery one of the scoops was half melted and the one pictured arrived EXACTLY how you see it. No, we did not dive in and eat any first. It was completely melted and only half filled. It was supposed to be a kids scoop but instead we received a full chunk of brownie with no attempt of mixing in and a faint white liquid in the bottom I am assuming they were passing off as the ice cream. I hate this location. It looks like they did not place it in the cooler while waiting for the driver to pick up. Every time I say I will NEVER return I always go back and almost immediately regret it. To add injury to insult concerning this experience, I called the store and was passed on to another employee without warning after explaining in great detail. 2nd person said she was the manager, she appeared to be unknowledgeable on how to handle the situation and unwilling to offer a customer recovery resolution. She offered to look into it and call me back. When she did get back with me, she stated I would get a refund for the one that was completely melted. No apology that it arrived that way or not any remorse for one person having to go without ice cream while the other was able to indulge. I have no idea how this place manages to stay in business because they have the worst employees ever. Right across the street Rita's has staff in the same demographic and they offer excellent guest service.“

“Best cakes in the area, amazing owner, and a beautifully talented and diverse staff! Been a customer for decades!“

“She makes very tasty, amazingly beautiful cakes. Try her. .... you will not be disappointed!“

“I live in New York and I am Italian food is very important to me. Worked in catering for 10 year so my standards are high. Went to my great nieces baby shower Courtney Naylor. The cake was one of the best cakes I have ever eaten. Super moist I would definitely recommend getting your cakes from the cake faerie.“

“Originally found this bakery because of their dairy-free options. 1000% satisfied with the quality and taste of each item we have ordered. Excellent customer service as well.“

“Cakes Plus provided a wonderful cake for my son's wedding several years ago, so my son recommended the bakery when I wanted to purchase a cake for my grandson's 30th birthday. I knew the words I wanted written on the cake, but didn't have a design in mind. Many, many thanks to Hannah for her patience and for helping me nail the perfect design!! Everyone loved the vanilla sheet cake. (See picture.) It was beautiful and delicious. Then, when I went to pickup the vanilla sheet cake, on a whim, I decided to also purchase a smaller, off the shelf, lemon cake with a balloon design. People who tried both cakes at the birthday events said both were amazing, but they loved the taste of the lemon cake more than the vanilla. I wish we weren't limited to rating this bakery 5 stars! Lol!!“

“As a Chef/Owner of A Taste of Heaven Catering Service, working with the group over at Cake Artista is an absolute delight. Their ability to deliver gourmet cakes and sweet treats for large events is a plus for me. I highly recommend them.“

“Yesterday evening I last minute decided to go to this establishment a little too late not paying attention to their closing time. It is very rare that when you see a business closing that the people inside will pay you any mind. I would have been over excited if they had payed me attention and nothing else. The person at the desk not only acknowledged me but proceeded to ring up my order (which he didn’t have to do) beyond their closing hours. I think we all know what we go to this established for at this point but this person went above and beyond and helped me to walk away from here with a feeling that is rare in this day and age. I wish I knew his name but his attention to detail and customer service spoke volumes and left an impression. ✨“

“I asked Tany if she could make a custom citizenship+birthday cake and she delivered! Beautiful presentation and delicious - rave reviews from the partygoers. (Sorry for the quality of the slice picture, could barely get a photo in before it was demolished!)“

“Love it and love her. Susan created a beautiful Black Carpet Affair themed cake for my 40th birthday. If you know how birthdays go, sometimes you miss out on things at your own party! After the event, everyone raved about how delicious the cake was! She will definitely continue to be my go to!“

“Absolutely Beautiful Cakes“
