Cake Lady

It was closed when I went there today with the cake lady lettering literally being scraped off the window as I drove up. Out of business.

Awesome customer service, clearly these guys are artists and business people! Price was great too…, ALsO took my order kind of last minute, less then 24 hours

The best strawberry short cake in the world.
We drive 2 hours to pick this cake up for all of our parties. It is on fleek. The cake lady is pure genius.

First the cakes taste great, but I sent a picture and got a cake that looked like a cheap version of the picture I sent. We even talked more than once about what I wanted. I wanted pale pink with gold or silver accents and I got a white (if you squinted it looked pale pink) with bright yellow accents. It was supposed to be an elegant princess cake, but was not. This was just in 2013. I was very disappointed, but it did taste great.

Have been patronizing The Cake Lady for at least fourteen (?) years. Fabulous cakes! Excellent flavor, icing and they are beautiful. Once when my son was about 5 I ordering a cake for a Sunday not realizing they closed early. I didn’t pick the cake up and they called and waited for me to come get it knowing that someone would be disappointed without a birthday cake. I can’t recommend them highly enough — it’s the only cake I ever make a fuss over.

Ah… the Cake Lady… read about her in the New York Times prior to my wedding in 1997… we met her, tasted some lovely cakes and decided we wanted a sandcastle cake… she had a picture of one she’d done and it looked perfect… like those sandcastle molds kids use on the beach…
And on the bottom tier there would be sugar-​candy «shells» scattered around…
So the day of our wedding… the delivery is very late… my husband-​to-​be is standing outside waiting for me to arrive… and the cake is not there yet… then a flustered young boy arrives… cake and a container of candy shells… the boy stumbles and the ‘shells’ topple to the ground… he picks them up, puts them back in the container and sets up the cake with the aforementioned shells scattered around the bottom.
Now, the cake didn’t look like a sandcastle… it looked like a brown cake with a melting obelisk on top… not quite the look we were going for.
The cake was marginal at best. a bit dry…
I hope she has improved over the years!
I know this is bizarre 14 years after the fact, but I just happened to find her on Unilocal while looking for a cake bakery in south Jersey.
