A Piece of Cake

We LOVED our first experience with A Piece of Cake for our little boy’s 1^st birthday. They made the most adorable cake, with a smash cake included. The staff was very friendly and made the cake exactly how I asked. Oh and did I mention it was super moist and delicious! We had several guests at the party ask who made the cake because they loved it so much. Thank you all for a wonderful job, will definitely use you in the future!

I asked for a very different cake and told them what I wanted. I could have done the decorations better myself. I was extremely disappointed. I asked for it to say happy birthday to look like it was written in blood not just red frosting. I asked for a knife to be in the corner with it in a pool of blood, not the smallest knife in the world and the blood look like a pile of red frosting.
I will never order another cake from here again.
The only reason I gave them 2 stars is because their customer service is good and they respond to you fast.

Thank you to the staff at Piece of Cake for making a beautiful and delicious cake and cupcakes for out daughter wedding this past weekend. The delivery on time, the cake and cupcakes were delicious! Nice job!!! I would highly recommend to others as well as using in the future for other events. Thank you from Gary and Lisa Duvall

My daughter wanted a red velvet cake for her birthday so we the grocery store route only to strike out. Remembered seeing this store attached to Walker Eggs on Main Street so stopped by to inquire.
Debbie (I think that was who we talked to) was very accommodating, even for our daughter’s odd request of red velvet cake with strawberry whipped icing instead of the traditional icing. We ordered the cake to pick up 4 days later.
We just said «decorate it for a tween girl, she likes pink» and left it at that.
The cake was beautiful and my daughter loved it. Even with the strawberry icing I have to admit it was tasty.
They even gave us four pretty cake pops free! (I’m assuming with leftover cake and icing from our order) The birthday girl enjoyed giving her guests a going away treat after the party.
Yes it cost more than picking up a pre-​made cake at the grocery store but it is definitely worth it! I’m glad we ended up supporting a local business.

For my birthday, I wanted to try some new pasties. I Unilocal’d and found «A Piece of Cake», not too far from my dinner location. I will not lie and say that is was a little far to find (due to my GPS). When I got there, I found a small bakery with a happy and welcoming owner. She talked to me about the store had been busy for Thanksgiving and they were in the middle of restocking their items. Today, they had vanilla and chocolate cupcakes. I was down to try 2 vanilla. The owner boxed them and said «$ 3.00» For both? Wow! I am so use to paying $ 2 per item downtown. I was so happy.
I did not get to the cupcake till the next day, but they were so good. Moist, flavorful and the frosting was just right. They were also still fresh, meaning they use quality products.
I’m a fan!

So to be honest, this place was a nightmare to work with. With all due respect to this bakery, their service came in the package with where my wedding was (the Columns in Greenwood). So they were stuck with me as much as I was stuck with them for my budget wedding.
1. Consultation: We walk in, and it’s a small, quaint bakery. I thought, «this place HAS to be good!» They sit us down with a few photo albums, that all look like they’re from 1980 (my wedding was last year in 2013.) and that frightened me. «Maybe it’s just the books,» I thought. nope, when you open all of the albums, all the pictures look like they’re from the 80’s and 90’s. Nothing flashy (which was fine at first, since we wanted something simple), but a lot of cake borderlined tacky. So we went with a simple design, nailed it.
When it came to the taste test, our options were white or chocolate. Even the samples tasted old, which totally concerned me, but chocolate for our 1-​year tier and chocolate and white for the actual cake.
We were told if we wanted flowers on the cake, we are to provide them and make sure they are to the bakery by Wednesday before the wedding, which of course sounded odd, but they’re the pros, not me.
2. Wedding Crunch Time: I go into the bakery with a dozen off-​white roses to be placed on the cake, and they told me they don’t accept/​keep fresh flowers. Excuse me, WHAT?! They told me that I was misinformed and that they couldn’t help me. Wow. But they said if I brought the flowers with me to the venue day of (meaning I had to keep them fresh-​looking myself for 4 days), then they’ll help me place them on the cake.
3. Wedding Day: The wedding party arrived at 8:45−9am-ish… they arrived at 8:50 to drop off the cake and ran. Literally did not hear one peep from them.
Taste: The chocolate cake was SOOO unbelievably dry. And I felt that I was just eating sugar. I don’t know, I just expected more. But I did try the white cake, which was a lot better than the chocolate. By the way, while not trying to be a bridezilla, I realize I chose the chocolate cake for my 1-​year tier…
4. 1-​Year Anniversary Tier: It. Was. Dry. It was like I was back at my wedding with dry chocolate cake, trying to choke it down. While it was a cute moment, damn was this such a major disappointment all around.
Sorry Piece of Cake. I heard good things about you, but I didn’t get any of that.

So happy with our cake. Reasonable prices, and absolutely delicious. I didn’t pick out an existing design; I just told them we wanted a jungle theme with monkeys for a first birthday, and it was perfect. Will definitely be repeat customers; so much tastier than anything you can get at the grocery store.

Amazing moist cake. Prices are very reasonable, too!
The white and chocolate cakes are so damn good, but the winner for me is the cherry chip. Holy moly is it good. The more buttery buttercream icing is to die for as well. I think I got a cavity just opening the box.
I will use this place for all of my showers and birthdays from here on out. Once you try it you will understand why. And the cakes for the showers have been so cute! Highly recommend!
