11 Best Bakeries near Phoenix

“Chef Kelsie and the Gingersnap Bakery team are the best! Kelsie was quick to respond to our initial inquiry and set up a virtual meeting to discuss timeline, design, and cost. We showed her some Pinterest inspo pics and she drew a sketch on the spot. Then we picked out some cake and frosting flavors to sample, and she mailed them to our house (cake tasting and a movie was so fun!). She was always easy to reach and quick to respond. On the wedding day, she personally delivered the cake to our venue, and everything went without a hitch – in fact, we completely forgot about the cake until we walked into our ballroom to preview it during cocktail hour. The cake itself was absolutely beautiful and hit the brief perfectly; it was exactly what we wanted. It was an 8-inch single-tier token cake for the photo op, and the photos turned out great. Moreover, it was DELICIOUS! Perfect texture, just the right amount of sweet. We got their mocha flavor with chocolate ganache as our filling/frosting but asked for vanilla buttercream on the outside to match our white theme. We are so excited to eat the slices we are saving for our one-year anniversary!“

“So delicious, I haven’t had a good half moon cookie in ages. Will absolutely be back.“

“Cakes/cupcakes tasted delicious, communication was amazing and the presentation was outstanding! 10/10 best bakery in the area. I also ordered gluten free cupcakes and they were the best I have ever had!“

“Was invited for the Syracuse Duke basketball game. But before had a wonderful dinner at Joey’s Restaurant. Noticed Big Mama’s Cheesecakes, hm, interesting/catchy name. Make note this is one dessert that so many make, so many claim to have so called mastered etc it is extremely difficult to master. From my 33 years of experience & being a 3 star chef from Manhattan & serving the biggest names in any form of entertainment I have to express that in this crazy culinary business this cheesecake was well beyond anything I have ever tasted. Magnificent isn’t even enough to say. There is a famous restaurant in France named Les Papilles. Exceptional in bakery especially cheesecake. The cheesecake here in Syracuse is right there with Les Papilles. This is a complete lottery win for this area of the country. I’ve been around the globe and have visited many culinary gems, this is in my top 20. Absolutely brilliant“

“Best donuts and dough around!“

“Highly recommended!! After happily agreeing to whip up a custom birthday cake on short notice (2 days), I asked if I could add on a custom cookie cake. Kathy & her staff were able to make that happen as well! The cake was their PB Explosion, but with a sunflower theme for the birthday girl. Not only was the cake gorgeous, it was delicious, too! The cookie cake looked great, and got the nod of approval from the birthday boy. I didn't try that one myself.. I was too busy downing the pb explosion! Thank you so much, Kathy & crew! We were all amazed by the cakes, and can't wait to come back to try your ice cream and other treats!“
