The Cake Spot

Yummy sugar frosting. (sorry no b/​c for me!) I’ve ordered my daughters 1^st bday cake and came back and they ‘remade’ her cake with styrofoam and frosting for her 1 yr pix. So great and it was beautiful. Also got my husbands 40^th bday Bruins cake and picked up cupcakes for get togethers many times. they have books of cake designs — seems kids designs are the best.
I would suggest keeping décor fairly minimal. It’s all done with frosting so no cake boss looking cakes/​cupcakes but i’ve always gotten compliments and they taste awesome!
small little place but cute. would suggest they have better signage outside. or just keep it a secret — more cake for me! ;)

Disappointed. Nobody loves cupcakes more than I do. As such, I tend to be a little forgiving when it comes to cupcakes. After all, how bad could they be? In this case, pretty bad.
I moved to Quincy 2+ years ago and have been looking forward to trying this place just as long. I decided today was the day (2÷19÷12).
The décor is cute and what you’d hope for in a small cake shop. The service was friendly and sweet. So far, so good. I ordered 3 pieces: 2 cupcakes and a half moon.
The cake portion of the treats was palatable. Not too dry, not too moist, just right. Even the whipped cream inside the mocha cupcake was good. However, the frosting is disgusting… sicky sweet and sugary, but not in a good way. I’m not one of those snobs who will only «do» buttercream frosting and who turns her nose up at a standard sugar frosting. But this was ridiculous. It was so overwhelmingly sweet that I picked the top right off the cupcake, threw it out and just ate the cake part. (Not to mention that the frosting top had already fallen off the cupcake into the box during transit — I think it was top heavy from all the sugar.)
It’s really too bad. I was hoping this place would be one of my local favorites, like Fratelli’s. Not even close.

I was looking for some nicely decorated cupcakes for my sister’s birthday. It was a special occasion and I wanted something special. I spent at least 20 minutes looking through books and speaking to the woman about what I wanted, a dozen cupcakes with polka dots, swirls and funky designs in blues and purples so that’s what she wrote on the receipt and that is NOT what I got!
My bf picked them up so I didn’t see them until it was too late otherwise I never would have left the shop with them
They were ugly frosted blue and some had sprinkles!
When I called it was pathetic she didn’t have an answer, I told the woman to look at the receipt and she says «it’s in the trash» she knew she messed up and definitely ruined my day. Sprinkles? Really?
I am so disappointed
I definitely will not return here and don’t suggest you do either

I ordered a small cake and requested festive colors and no pink. When I picked up the cake it was only in pink with white frosting. When I asked they said I requested girly colors. So where is the «girly colors» — the cake was only in pink. Cake was alright — a little on the dry side but the whipped cream helped. Would not order from here again.

I wanted to bring something to a holiday party and this bakery is close to where I live. I bought 6 large cupcakes in various flavors. They were so awesome. People loved them. I enjoyed the Boston Cream Cupcake. I highly recommend this bakery.

I love this place! It usa definitely a hidden gem. I have horten multiple cakes done here, all for very reasonable prices., a lot cheaper than the other in bakeries in this area. The owner, Jacqui is always so helpful and her cakes are always beautifully decorated. The cakes are super moist with the perfect ratio of cake to buttercream and they stay fresh for almost a week!
I’ve also ordered cookies from here a couple times. Great price for a bakery and the cookies were nice and chewy and soft.
Everytime I come to this bakery, I cannot resist a cupcake. Again, the prices are so great and they never disappoint!

Did somebody say cupcakes??? Count me in!!! I’ll make this short and sweet. The Cake Spot is definitely a keeper!
I discovered it through a Groupon, but I’ll definitely be going back. I bought an array of their large filled cupcakes. Chocolate Mousse and Oreo were both awesome. The chocolate cake was really nice, moist, flavorful, and not too dark or bitter-​flavored. To me, that is SOOO hard to find. The chocolate frosting was just right too, not too sweet but not too plain, either. Yellow cupcakes were equally yummy; bought Boston Cream, Strawberry Shortcake, and Raspberry filled. All were quite good and the white frosting was nice too. (I ate it all!!) I thought $ 2.50 was a fair price for these fairly large cupcakes. (They also had smaller cupcakes for about a $ 1.25 (I think) each.)
Couldn’t leave without a half moon (black and whites to some folks) from the case either. Equally yummy. Moist and fresh… and pretty tasty too
I can’t say I tried their cakes, but based upon the cupcakes, I would guess you can’t go wrong here. I, for one, will definitely be ordering my next birthday cake from the Cake Spot.

I am a huge fan of cakes and cake decorating and a few weeks ago I went to a friend’s sister’s 1^st birthday and the cake was ordered from here! It was Cute and delicious!
What attracted me was the tinkerbell/​Princess/​Floral decorations and I’m a huge cake decorator in Culinary class at QHS so I got so pysched to see this cake! I also heard the old Home Ec teacher owns this bakery? I must find out!
My friends usually are the ones who go buy cupcakes here when ever we have a study group or something, but I’ve only been in here once, I wish I had more opportunities to stop by!

Ordered cupcakes and daisy cakes for daughter’s 1^st birthday. They’re very accommodating to all my requests and changes. The cupcakes & cakes turned out beautiful and delicious! Highly recommend!

Every time there’s a birthday celebration, I always ask if I can be in charge of ordering the cake :) I LOVE going to The Cake Spot! The staff are fun and exciting to work out my ideas with. They are patient, efficient, and very accommodating and prices are reasonable.
The first time I found out about the Cake Spot, I had literally drove by it trying to get to another cake store :) As I stopped in I loved the location and the bright cheery colors that were displayed inside. I wanted to order a Zombie cake for a friends 30^th and was a little particular in what I wanted. But I gave references and when time came to pick it up it was just the way I had envisioned it but better! The detail was amazing! and the cake was delicious! It was a definite hit at the party.
The second time was to celebrate my godson’s first birthday, which was Red Sox themed! I had asked the cake to be made into the shape of a baseball. It was perfect!
I’ve received many compliments from both cakes and I even chuckled when someone said, «this is the most delicious baseball I ever ate!»
I will forever be a loyal customer.

Stopped in recently to pick up some cookies. One month after Easter they were still selling Easter cookies (on sale for $ 1). I wouldn’t eat a cookie that was a month old if it was FREE. I was in a rush and needed the cookies for a guest who was coming over so I bought some sugar cookies. I have no faith that they were fresh and they didn’t taste very good. They only sold the cookies wrapped up in little bags and the broken and mis-​shapen cookies were hidden at the bottom. The store was messy and the windows haven’t been washed in a long, long time. I won’t be returning.

I love this place. There is a good selection of cupcakes in two different sizes. I’ve had their red velvet, lemon filled, chocolate, strawberry shortcake, blueberry filled, boston cream, and oreo mousse and they were all delicious. My favorite is their strawberry shortcake cupcake filled with whipped cream and strawberries, topped with more whipped cream and a sprinkle of graham cracker crumb. I love it so much, I ordered a ton of them for my wedding instead of a wedding cake. My wedding was a snowboarding theme so I asked them to decorate them with coconut flakes (to look like snow) in place of the graham cracker crumb. Everyone loved it and they all asked hubby and I where we ordered them from.
I’ve only had their cakes and cupcakes but they carry other baked goods such as pies, cookies, muffins, whoopie pies, etc.
If you are getting a cupcake from here, be sure to let it come to room temperature before eating it! Taste so much better.

This location had a bakery of some sort when we first moved into the neighborhood a year ago, but it soon closed. When The Cake Spot opened, we kept talking about going, but never got around to it until now.
Such a cute little place! It’s brightly painted on the inside, taking perfect advantage of the light from the huge front windows. It’s not a huge place, but the owner has dressed up the few tables and eating counter with nice placemats and decorations – but not even close to tacky. I wish she had more display cases, but that could be the foodie in me: D Her walls were lined with shelves of gingerbread houses and cookies, books of her cakes and a few items for sale.
We only ordered a Mocha Whipped Cream cupcake and a Chocolate Mousse cupcake and 2 coffees. Both were filled cupcakes and had fantastic buttercream frosting on top, which is awesome because most places have sugar frosting. Super fresh cupcakes and coffee, which makes me a happy camper.
The woman behind the counter (I’m not sure if she’s the owner or not, I should have asked) was super pleasant, chatting about cakes, the other sweets and wedding tastings. We were chatting so much she almost forgot to charge us! How can you go wrong with such a great bakery in walking distance to your home?

What a cute place. I had some time to kill in the area and passed by to realize I should really stop in for a treat or two… I just love bakeries. The store is colorful with a seating area. The cupcakes were decorated very nice. I opted for a vanilla, which she referred to as white, it was very good, almost like an angel food consistency, I liked the frosting too. The combination was not too sweet. Then the chocolate/​chocolate was good also, with a fudgy frosting. I could tell they were both freshly made. The regular sized cupcakes were only $ 1! I did notice more exotic flavors in larger sizes for a couple bucks more. The person working was pleasant. She does elaborate cakes for occasions also. The prices for small birthday cakes was reasonable. If you like sweets, I would check this place out for cupcakes or a special order cake.

I stopped in with my kids last week to check it out. The cakes are lovely, but we just got a few cupcakes which were really beautiful AND yummy— real buttercream frosting! They young baker/​owner was very enthusiastic and friendly. You can tell she is loving what she does, and it shows with her products.
The only negative (aside from some tricky parking) is that I would like to see a little more variety of baked goods. But it is called «The Cake Spot!» And if that is what you are after, I would definitely give her a try. I hope she has much success with her new venture.
