Cornerstone Bakery

Nice selection, kind girls behind the counter… I don’t have that much to complain about.
Their tiramisu… It was really good until I hit the bottom. I don’t understand why that last layer is cake. Not just any cake, a very DENSE cake that really ruined it for me. There is not supposed to be cake in that dessert, so stop it. Maybe if they soaked that in an amoretto/​coffee mix like the lady fingers it would be better, but again, this is not a cake dessert.
I would also like the mention that they clearly forgot to add vanilla extract to their chocolate chip cookies. Very disappointing flavor when my sister bit into it.
I’d go back… maybe

Pretty disappointed in my special ordered cake. I brought in several photos for my babies sweet 16 birthday cake I was told it was no problem to make. When I arrived for pick up I was told give them 10mins, 30mins later they offered a free half dozen cupcakes for my wait with no explanation of how much longer. I appreciate the gesture of the cupcakes but I ordered a two layer huge cake I didn’t need more cake. When the cake was brought out it looked NOTHING like the pictures I brought the fondant was striped around the bottom instead of laid over the whole cake, made it look very sloppy an unprofessionally done. The white layer was cream not white which wasn’t what was ordered. Over charged for a professional cake that didn’t look very professional. I will say the macaroons I ordered were exquisite wish I had just ordered a bunch of those instead. So disappointed you only have a special sweet 16 once an the cake is a huge part just like a wedding.

The cookies here are amazing. They’re freshly made, soft, and super decadent. Indulge those taste buds and practice your willpower. I apparently have none. The peanut butter are my favorite. They have chocolate chip, red velvet, creamsicle, lemon sugar and others. More cookies for me!

Fresh made goodies from scratch! Get there earlier in the day for the best selection! Lots of variety! Specialty cupcakes, macaroons, mini cannoli, key lime bars, éclairs and on and on and on! Things are a bit heavily frosted here but still pretty yummy. I saw some pictures of the custom cakes they can make — very artistic! I like the Hulk fist coming out of the superhero cake! Looks like they run some same day specials through Facebook, if you are a follower. Located just a stone’s throw from Udderly Delicious.

Tiny little bakery. Good service.
Holy cow, that cupcake was MOIST. I could see and feel the oil. I had the red velvet cupcake. $ 2.50.
I also bought 5 macarons. They were all slightly dry. Sweet filling. $ 1.75 each.
My total was almost $ 12. It’s a good place to give yourself a sugary treat.

This bakery does a nice job, with their pre-​made items. The flavors were tasty. The yellow/​white cake for the cupcake and coconut cake were on the dry side, but I have come to expect that from that type of product.
The buttercream, especially the vanilla buttercream frosting, was very good, and the chocolate cupcake and cakes were very moist. My only «complaint» if you would call it that, is that the layered chocolate cake was 3 layers, and the outside was thickly iced, as well as the inner layers. At the end, there was little cake to a ton of icing. Not my preference, and so I would not buy that again.
A big surprise was the quality of their choux pastery! Their cream puffs and eclairs were very, very nice!
Compared to a grocery store product, this is superior, and I would return.

Loved the cupcakes from this place. Nice and moist and the perfect amount of buttercream frosting. A little pricey but worth it for the occasional treat or cake. Yum!
