Connie’s Cakes

$ 250 curious George cake looked nothing like him– (see under pictures)
And cake was dry.

Still my go to local bakery. Customer service is still top notch & the buttercream icing is delicious as always. Try them out, you won’t be disappointed!

I found Connie’s when I was looking for a smash cake for my son’s first birthday in Grand Rapids and am I ever glad I did! The cake was so moist and the frosting was incredible. I love cake (and cupcakes) but this is easily the best cake I have ever had. I highly recommend Connie’s if you’re in need of a cake.
Note: I do think this location is better for ordering cakes than it is for stopping in to see what’s available. The display case was almost empty so if I had just stopped in I might have been alarmed. But our personalized cakes that I ordered ahead of time were absolutely perfect!

My fiancé and I live in SC. He is from GR. I searched around online till I found Connies! I already knew what our little bundle of joy was going to be, but we definitely wanted to surprise his family on Christmas Eve. I found my saying on Google images and called them with my ideas.
We couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome of our beautiful Gender Reveal Cake! It was so cute!
It tasted even better! I love butter cream! It stayed super moist for a week as well! Love that they just did one solid blue line in between the cake layers.
The store is in a great location. The price of the cake was more than reasonable! We really enjoyed our experience with them and we hope to use them again!
Connies Cakes is a must! It’s a BOY!

So easy to work with and quality product to boot! I ordered a cake through Connie’s Cakes for a retirement party at work, it was a basic vanilla cake with butter cream frosting and was an absolute hit! Moist, light and delish everyone loved it and the few pieces we had left over went home with the guests.
Thank you for all you do! I’ll definitely be back in the future for other events.

Adorable store in a convenient location in easttown. Cupcakes are made fresh, «yesterday’s cupcakes» are also avail for less expensive. Can buy individual, in a set of two, four, etc. offer vegan cupcakes — huge emphasis on their wedding cakes! Reasonably priced for the quality and location. My chocolate peanut butter and strawberry lemonade cupcakes were delicious, with pearl sprinkles on one and a chocolate kiss topped on the other. Found this place through Unilocal too :)

I’ve always ordered cakes here whenever we needed to celebrate a birthday. So this year was no different. I ordered a cake for my wife and picked it up on the day we were to celebrate. And then disaster struck… I left the house to pick up another gift and my dog found a way to get onto the table and proceeded to eat the entire cake! The peanut butter frosting enticed her just as it had been enticing me all afternoon. Panicked, I went back to Connie’s Cakes to simply pick up a couple of cupcakes. Somethings better than nothing, right?!
The owner (Mary), was very helpful. Rather than buy a few cupcakes like I had planned, she grabbed 7 chocolate cupcakes, frosted them with the peanut butter icing, and decorated the top as she had done on the original cake! This was a very last minute task, and it even delayed an appointment she had for taste testing.
I was very appreciative of the service I received and will continue to purchase my cakes from here. The prices are very reasonable, and the products always taste fresh. To address the comment about it being dead at 10:30 on a Saturday, I would not contribute this to poor products, but rather the location. It is somewhat off the beaten path and does not receive a lot of foot traffic.

This was stop #2 on our Grand Rapids bakery tour this past Saturday morning. We came in looking for cupcakes or other sweet goods. What we found was a very limited selection of cupcakes in a mostly empty display case. Two of us got the raspberry lemonade cupcake and one person got the red velvet cupcake. I wasn’t wow’d with my raspberry lemonade cupcake and my friend said hers was even a little dry. The red velvet cupcake was a disappointing same.
We stopped by at around 10:30am on a Saturday morning and it was dead– you could hear crickets. With every other bakery on our tour, packed on a Saturday, the fact that this one is being skipped over, should tell you something.
I realize they have great reviews for their cakes but I probably won’t be back for a cupcake.

If you are looking for a great cake place to go, like i was, then Connie’s Cakes is your place! I asked for one of each flavor (7 of them). My family and I tried them all and loved them! Very appealing to the eye, the cake is very moist and the frosting is a little much for my daughter but was the perfect amount for me, but taste great! Overall i give Connie’s cakes 2 thumbs up!

I went to Connie’s Cake as I was tired of going to the same olé places. I wanted to try out a local place in the neighborhood. I ordered a cake for my supervisors birthday. I wasn’t quite sure what to get, but was helped by a very nice woman there. The following week I picked up the cake and it was so nicely decorated. Beautiful colors with big flowers and shapes. The cake/​/​frosting had great flavors and was super tasty. I’ve always been in charge of getting the birthday cakes at work, but I’ve never been asked by so my co-​workers of where I bought it. Everyone LOVED it! I’ll certainly be going back!
Thank you Connie’s Cake! =)

Thank you Mary and staff for a wonderful birthday cake and cupcakes for our daughter’s birthday! The cake was not only adorable, but light, fluffy, and delicious. The buttercream was really good as well. You will have our business in the future!

It’s tough because my sister got her wedding cake here, and I remembered liking it so much at the wedding that I ordered it for my other sister’s birthday. The lady was super nice and was able to find the order and make it for us as she had before. It was a white cake with raspberry filling and buttercream frosting. It just wasn’t the same. It seemed like any cake I could have gotten anywhere. It was super cheap though. It was like $ 8.95 for a square 8 inch cake! Amazing price, but I wanted to be wowed again. Maybe I was just caught up in the moment.
