I just wanted to stop by and say we truly love Shenks Bakery! My daughter just turned three last month and this is her third beautiful cake from Shenks! At every party people ask me “ where is that cake from !?!? “ thank for always making our baby girls cake so memorable Kristin and Mike Cain

The cupcakes weren't moist at all, very dry inside. We purchased chocolate cupcakes and red velvet. Wish they tasted like they looked.

I'm a butter cake fan. Black Forrest cake is also good. Try the individual cakes.

Oh.my.God. We ordered a Taylor Swift themed cake and what a treat! Chef's kiss to Schenk's! It was sooooo good! Perfection! I want to create an occasion just to order another cake from them! We recommend Schenk's 100%, and the doughnuts and pastries are delectable as well! Go there!

I have been a steady customer for about 8 years and buy about 2-3 cakes a year, at least two of them being custom cake orders. I also buy smaller ready made items throughout the year.I have always been super impressed with the cleanliness of the store, the great customer service, and have had wonderful outcomes with cakes both in taste and decor.I purchased a $240 custom cake for my son’s birthday - a two tier cake one 8 inch chocolate chip pound cake atop a 10 inch vanilla pound cake. All smooth sailing the entire process. I picked the cake up it was decorated just as I had asked.Upon cutting into the chocolate chip cake I noticed the cake was darker but thought nothing of it due to the chocolate pieces however, the cake crumbled so much so you couldn’t eat it with a fork and needed a spoon, the cake had a very dry texture, and overall tasted over-baked/burnt. 3-5 year olds pushed it away honestly and I ended up throwing the entire top layer in the trash. The bottom layer was completely fine. But due to this issue I didn’t have enough cake for all the birthdays guests.I called the bakery after the weekend finished, very politely, and had a great exchange with a Naomi who really listened to my concerns and was apologetic for the issue. She put me on a brief hold to speak with the owner who offered a store credit - I agreed to a store credit because like I said I frequent this bakery.The owner felt a $20 credit was comparable for the cake that was inedible and stated that “the bottom was fine”.I did not expect a full refund whatsoever that would be an unfair ask, but I really felt disregarded and felt a 25-30% refund/credit would be reasonable.Truthfully I am very disappointed and feel that maybe this place has outgrown the “TLC” and appreciation for returning customers that I once felt it had.

Hey, if you want to pay over inflated bakery prices but receive subpar grocery store quality cake, this is the place for you. My boyfriend had a cool idea for a birthday cake for me. He was told they didn't have time for all that. Ok, fine. But what he got not worthy of an actual bakery and something he could have bought last minute at Costco. Was it terrible? To be fair, no. But was the cake good? Also no. There really wasn't much cake to the cake, it was mostly icing.

I usually stop by here every few weeks when visiting relatives in the area. They have a good selection of donuts, cookies & cakes. My family loves the glazed cinnamon roll donuts among other items. The staff is always courteous & friendly, so stop by next time you're in the area.

It was a quick stop for a few treats before arriving at our final destination and Schenk's was close by ~ so we decided to give them a try. The doughnuts looks delicious and they did not disappoint ~ one vanilla frosted and one creme filled ~ both were fresh and really hit the spot! The cookies were purchased for three little snack connoisseurs and we got thumbs up with tremendously huge smiles for the cheeseburger and hot dog cookies. Thank you Schenk's for doing all the work and making us look so good!

The worst cake ever. I got this cake as a birthday cake ( unfortunately I was not consulted) hell of a lot of bitter frosting , cake taste like heavy box cake, dry . No one wants to even eat… I would have been happy with a supermarket cupcake instead of this waste of money .I’ll try to repurpose this cake …. Such a shame.
