Custom Cakes near Arlington, VA

“This place isn't open on Sundays, but I forgive them. The pastry here is lovingly made with extreme attention to detail. Cream puff swans? Macarons? Croissant? tartes? volcano cake? and on and on and on and it's soooo hard to choose just one. The staff are friendly and patient, and package up your selection as if it is a newborn baby. Really great place to treat yourself, OR to get something special for someone - including celebration cakes“

“I absolutely love Cold Stone in Crystal City!
The ice cream here is always creamy, flavorful, and made with care. Every visit is a treat, and the staff makes it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!“

“Cookies and ice cream!! Mike is great 👍🏽“

“I came to try this bakery after seeing it promoted on Instagram as an authentic Asian-style bakery. I miss the Japanese bakeries I would frequent often when living in Japan a few years ago, and this one definitely brought back those memories. The interior is cute and on display were a variety of Asian-style baked goods and some minimal seating. I got the ube twist and melon pan. The ube twist was really delicious — I’d highly recommend it. The melon pan was disappointing; I expect a crunchy cookie crust on melon pan and this one was sticky and soft. The bread itself was super plush and soft and amazing, so it would be great if they could improve upon it with a crunchier cookie crust. The bread items were $3-4 each, so not the cheapest, but I was happy to support a local Asian bakery.“

“Chunky Monkey, always so yummy 👍👍“

“Just did the cupcake monster decorating class at the Waldorf location and they were so sweet. My daughter asked for mermaid decorations and Chef Tai put some chocolate into a mold and into the freezer on the fly. She also did bats and ghosts on request, it was so, so sweet. Kids (4 and 3) loved it, and super tasty, too! Will definitely be back!“

“Wonderful job and our girls birthday party and was hit of the day! Thank you so much!“

“The worker greeted me with a big smile and let me try samples before ordering.
They mixed my ice cream perfectly and even added extra toppings without me asking.
The service was fast, friendly, and made the whole visit enjoyable.“

“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.“

“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!“

“I wish I can give wholly sweet bake shop more than 5 stars. Seda, the owner and baker is beyond amazing and talented. We hired her for our daughter's Quinceañera to make a 3 tier cake and dessert table. She took time to listen to our vision and made it happened. It was absolutely beautiful and delicious. Highly recommended, I can't wait for our next event to work with her. Thank you so much Seda!!“

“This location has some of the best customer service. Kristina is such a kind employee. Even when the store is busy, she will take the time to greet me and ask me about my day as I place my order. She is a primary reason why I enjoy this particular location and honestly why I’m leaving this review. Ice cream here is great too!“

“Gone are the days lamenting that DC lacks a good patisserie and bakery. Tiered and Petite DELIVERS - true to its name; it is finger-licking, dessert-dreaming good. Exceeded expectations with service, price for value, taste, and ease of pick up. Pity a birthday only comes once a year.
I will definitely be coming back for my and my friends cake needs!“

“My child has celiac disease and the woman working today with glasses took very good care of her. They were able to provide me with the allergy list and willing to get a clean scoop and ice cream from the back. I took off one star because the other person working was super rude to multiple customers. We had her initially, but after handing us the allergy sheet we got moved over to the other woman (thankfully). This person was acting like the customers were straight up idiots. Telling them, in a nasty tone, where the line started when honestly there was no clear line at all. They were either having a bad day or really shouldn’t be at a job where they have to interact with other humans. Yes, I’m sure it can be frustrating, but you can nicely say the line actually starts over here.“

“This. Was. The. BEST. Cupcake. I. Have. Ever. Had.

The cupcakes are unbelievably light and fluffy! The frosting perfectly pairs! AND they are each made to order!

I ordered 6 and I’m going to have to lock myself away just so I don’t eat it all in one sitting. I can’t wait to come back and try more flavors!

Wayyyyyy better than Georgetown cupcakes!“

“Ordered the chajá, red velvet cake and the key lime pie. Enjoyed everything — the dulce de leche in the chajá was so rich, and I surprisingly enjoyed the nutella in the red velvet cake — but the key lime pie was a standout. Usually I find that places make key lime pie too sweet for my taste and this one does NOT have that problem 😂 Would definitely order from here again!“

“The Bakers Lounge delivered masterfully for my wife's birthday! She loves cake and only eats it on special occasions, and I was anxious to try a new bakery for our visit to DC this past weekend. They decorated the raspberry truffle cake in a vintage style per my request - totally nailed it - and delivered it to our hotel for when we arrived. The cake was scrumptious and beautiful! I highly recommend them for any cake occasion.“

“First time visiting Wonder Cleveland Park as a tourist, and I wasn’t sure what to expect or how to order. John was really helpful and walked us through the different menus and the self-ordering setup. I liked that you can order from multiple restaurants all in one place, which makes it perfect for indecisive groups or people who all want different things. One person can get a salad, another can get a burger, and someone else can grab pizza, all in the same order. We tried the lime salt and Royal Greens, and it was a great experience overall.“

“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!“

“Loved this place! We stopped in for a cappuccino and sat upstairs while we drank our cappuccinos. We didn’t order desserts, but they had a large variety of cupcakes in different flavors that looked heavenly.🧁“

“Me and friends of mine stopped by this place about a week ago after having a somewhat disappointing lunch at Birndo. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed with the interior felt fresh, clean, and inviting, with a lively atmosphere full of people. We decided to try some cake along with cappuccinos, and everything exceeded our expectations. The quality, presentation, and overall experience were fantastic, and it completely lifted our spirits after the earlier lunch. I will definitely return whenever I’m in the area to enjoy the same wonderful experience again.“

“Good corner location, always has a lot of staff, you'll find the expected popular flavors. Usually pretty clean. It's part of the mall block so it can be noisy, because it's not its own standalone shop - one side is totally open to the mall itself. Recommend you eat your ice cream at the park/outdoor space across the street that has plenty of seating.“
