Custom Cakes near Arlington, VA

“Randolphs has been my favorite bakery for years. The recent changes, sub contracting baking of breads, croissants, etc.,have forced me to go elsewhere. They no longer have the cakes, pastries and breads that made them the best of the best. In addition, the once classic store is crowded with displays of cocoa mix and other items that have nothing to do with the shop’s bakery offerings. I will still go in occasionally for challah, but that is it. They should take down the awning describing the shop as a Patisserie. It’s a bakery but not a patisserie.

Parking: There isn’t more to say. It’s free if you can get it“

“Cold Stone Creamery is one of my favorite ice cream parlors. They have a lot of flavors that you can choose from. It’s in a nice neighborhood, so you’ll enjoy the outside atmosphere. If you want an indoor space, you can enter through the Crystal shops gate where there are some tables and chairs. An excellent place to enjoy with your friends or by yourself!“

“It was delicious and the workers were very nice and respectful. I greatly appreciate and enjoyed the experience I had at this Ben and Jerry’s.“

“Charming bakery and café with a good assortment of baked goods and bubble tea. Everything we've had here has been fantastic and affordable. It's a family run place too which is always better than a chain. Hope this place gets the business it deserves.“

“Chunky Monkey, always so yummy 👍👍“

“They made me a lovely Birthday cake! It was so delicious and pretty!“

“I want to give a special shout out to Sio. She had amazing customer service from the moment I walked in to when I was heading out the door. She was very pleasant and personable. It's been YEARS since I've been to a cold stone, so it was nice to see that their customer service is still top tier.“

“Last year, I went with a friend on a night in April, and even though the weather was chilly, many people were waiting in line. I enjoyed the meal with my friend and children, but it was disappointing that the chunks of frozen fruit didn't break into pieces, perhaps because it was prepared by a woman. Still, I ordered 3 types and they were all delicious.“

“Where to begin... got the chance to visit Paradise Ice Cream. Great and prompt curbside pickup service. OMG the ice cream cookies are so good but the strawberry cheesecake on sugar cookie is my favorite. I wish I had taken a picture prior but there is nothing left. Can't wait to go back to try more of their homemade ice cream flavors.“

“We ordered a cake and 18 cupcakes of varying flavors. Not only were they absolutely stunning, but they were delicious too. Our guests were raving over the chocolate cake. We will 100% be back for more in the future and I cannot recommend Karissa’s work enough!“

“Our custom Hello Kitty Cake was just as my daughter imagined it. Thank you for making her Sweet 16 great!“

“Fantastic way for both 2- and 4-legged friends to celebrate a pup’s birthday! Shantee is the best — super friendly and helpful - thank you!“

“Hands down one of the friendliest and responsive customer friendly locations yet. My go to for ice cream cravings. I skipped lunch just to indulge myself on one of their signature creations.
Stop by this location before or after the movies. You won’t be disappointed. 👍“

“Cotton was a delight to work with from start to finish. For a baby shower, I ordered cupcakes, brownies, soft-baked cookies, fruit tarts, and cheesecakes. Everything was BEAUTIFUL, DELICIOUS and arrived 30 minutes early. It was a huge hit with all my coworkers and they were all asking where I ordered these sweet treats. If I could give Cotton 100 stars, I would.“

“This was my 2nd cake from Wholly Sweets Bake Shop and my experience with both was amazing. Absolutely beautiful pieces of art that tasted so delicious!“

“This little shop is mighty, and its owner Catherine is so lovely! GBBO fans will be delighted that, yes, THIS is the place where you can find a cherry bakewell (#IYKYK). Be sure to ask if there are any savory offerings in the back - I recently had a terrific mushroom and spinach tart that convinces me that I should just buy whatever savory offering is on deck.I can't wait till afternoon tea service is available. I'll definitely be there.“

“Wow, what a cake Zymira made! It was my dad's 100th birthday which called for something extra special. He loves apple pies so I asked for an apple flavored cake using the numbers 1, 0 and 0, and decorations reflecting three passions of his: golf, music and, get this, the Holy Spirit. Zymira invented a recipe: a cake with apply pie filing inside! and she made THREE cakes, one shaped as a 1, and two shaped as 0s, and sat them on serving sheets with the golf/music/Holy Spirit themes! It was the centerpiece of our dinner table. Very very good cake: moist, and that apple pie filling a special surprise. My dad loved it!“

“Hands down the best dessert I’ve ever had in a long time. Consistently top notch with a fresh bakery and friendly staff that makes you feel welcome! Cozy environment not super crowded pictures that are hanging on the wall gives a nice calm feel. The only downside is it is a little bit hidden behind a main road“

“The triple berry tart and the Brookies are amazing!!!“

“I was there to bring a cake for a mother's day gift. They were very busy and the lady who work at the front desk was having too much job to handle. She is very helpful and patient of handling all that order and people. You guys need additional person at the front desk in busy days like this. Thanks!“

“Cold Stone Creamery in DC was an absolute delight! Abi provided exceptional service, making the visit even more enjoyable. I tried the Coffee Lovers Only ice cream, and it was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with roasted almonds, Heath Bar, and caramel. I can't wait to go back!“

“I had a great experience at the Cold Stone in Silver Spring! The dairy-free chocolate ice cream was delicious, and my son absolutely loved his shake. There was only one young Hispanic lady working, but she was fantastic—she greeted us with a smile and provided excellent service. It’s not often you see someone so dedicated to making sure customers are happy. I highly recommend visiting this location if you’re in the area!“

“Seems like everyone stopped reviewing after the pandemic. I’m guilty of that too. Ate here without looking at the reviews. I had the fillet of fish in a spicy sauce, my wife had the grilled fillet. Both exceptional. Cocktails good too. Staff member Ricardo was attentive and funny. Great sunset spot, would recommend.“

“My wife and i always come here when we are in the area. Upon entering, the staff immediately greeted us. They are very friendly and helpful. We ordered 2 slices and a tea and took our seats. The dining area and tables were very clean. When we were finished, the staff walked up to our table and took our plates and asked how was everything. We were very pleased and will definitely come back again.“
