I ordered a pull a part cupcake cake, number 9, Fortnite themed for my son's birthday. The entire experience was so easy from start to finish. From the convenient user-friendly website ordering system, payment system, and seamless correspondence with Polkadot Cake Shop, I knew I was working with a true pro. I sent a picture of what I envisioned and got exactly that and even better. I've never had any service where I have provided a picture and gotten the EXACT results! Just blown away. The ingredients of the cupcakes were top notch as well, tasted so good, my guests were commenting how it was the best cupcake frosting they have ever tasted. And the 'icing on the cake' was that we received a premium custom-made cake at a reasonable price! I will definitely be using Polkadot Cake Shop for future events, thanks for making my son's birthday a memorable one!

Take their cake decorating classes! I've seen these on their Instagram for a couple months now and decided to go for it and take one of their classes. You can tell that people like them because at least half the class was return decorators. Christina was spectacular. She made the class super enjoyable, and even changed up the design during the class to make it better and there was group consensus on that. She let everybody expressed their creativity which made the class super super fun and allowed us all to show our creative differences. Pretty much anything that you wanted to do she was supportive of. I also loved hearing the stories from those who have taken the class monthly. Everyone who took it was super friendly and willing to help as well. I've also never used fondant or decorated a cake before and I got a lot of high compliments so the guidance was tremendous. The one thing I wish it was different was that the instructor introduced herself at the beginning. I think she was just so used to having the same people attending. There we're also a couple of snacks provided by the bakery, which were delicious. Now for the cake itself, i've never used fondant before or really made anything other than a box cake so I was surprised to hear that you had to actually leave the cake out for it to essentially warm up to be able to cut it easier or it would crumble. I took it out probably about two hours before we ate it and it did crumble which I blame myself for but I had another piece an hour or two later and it was delicious. They fill the cake with buttercream I definitely don't skimp. I've also heard good stories about their cannoli cake which I'm hoping to get into a class that has that flavor. I may just turn into one of the repeat customers too! They also do private classes, but for my conversations, you have to book a few weeks in advance to secure your date. I had initially looked into them while I was looking for birthday activities, but wanted to do a royal icing cookie class which I thought they didn't offer. I asked about it during class and they said they may be able to do those as well and just contact the bakery. After showing a friend and sharing how much I loved the class, she's looking into, potentially having her birthday here as well!

Arlene made my cake for my son's first birthday. She was so easy to work with and did an awesome job bringing my vision to life. Everyone kept commenting on how awesome the cake looked and where I got it from. Not only that it tasted even better than it looked !! Would recommend her and will definitely use her again.

This cake was an absolute masterpiece!! All three tiers were a different flavor, one even better than the next….my personal favorite was the coconut cake. Planning a wedding is so overwhelming and there are so many decisions to be made. Polkadot Cake Shop was well organized, quick to respond and so easy to work with. Also loved being able to support a business local to me. Thank you so much!!!

We worked with Polkadot for our wedding - they brought their trailer to our venue and set up the most beautiful and most delicious dessert service. Highly, highly recommend!

I am totally obsessed with my son’s birthday cake!!! She did an amazing job! The cake went perfectly with his wild one theme! The flavor of the cake was delicious! This is the second cake I ordered from the Polkadot Cake Shop within the last 5 months and I couldn’t be happier! Thank you so much!

Got a cake for my wife’s birthday and was very excited for it - seeing the reviews and photos online. Both ordering and pick up experience were great. The cake looked beautiful and everyone loved the way it looked. The major complaint was that the cake sponge was dry and crumbly even though we cut the cake on the same day I picked it up from the shop. (As per their instructions, I did not refrigerate it.) With such a high price tag, we expected the cake to taste as good as it looked but unfortunately that was not the case. Will definitely give it another try to see if we just had a bad luck.

They went above and beyond for my baby's 1st birthday. I had a Go Dog Go theme and they really killed the cupcakes and smash cake. And everyone loved the rice crispy treats.They were also very easy to work with.

Cake was beautiful! Amazing customer service, very friendly and understanding. Have been using them since my daughter was 3 and she is now 10! Will continue to be loyal for years to come!

I just want to thank you so much for the amazing cupcakes, cookies and pretzels. Everyone loved them so much. They were delicious and sooooo beautiful! I sent my order with pictures of the theme as inspiration and Arlene nailed it! I was so happy with the designs and colors of the cookies and cupcake frosting. This was our third order with Polkadot and we were beyond satisfied as always. To anyone who is considering ordering treats for your next event, look no further. The taste and designs will wow you and leave you completely satisfied. Polkadot is the best!

I was so incredibly pleased with the cake and cookies from the Polka Dot Cake Shop for my daughters bridal shower! After getting the recommendation from the venue, I read the reviews which led me to believe this was the place I would trust to provide the cake for this important day. I also had a friend that used them for her sisters' 30th birthday and was so happy with the results. The process was super easy - I reached out and spoke to someone on the phone and shared my inspiration for a tea party theme with Alice in Wonderland highlights. The communication was fantastic and they were so responsive and professional. I felt so confident that it was going to turn out great. They delivered it to my venue and all in attendance at the shower were so impressed. I would not hesitate to use them again should I need a creative and delicious cake!

I've used Polkadot Cake Shop now for the past two birthdays for my son. They are easy to work with, do a wonderful job, and make a delicious cake.

The cake and cupcakes for my wedding were delicious and well received! I heard a lot of compliments, especially on the French toast and cookies and cream, which I didn't get the chance to taste myself (but that just means I'll have to order some just for me). Our cake was beautiful and just the right size. Definitely recommend Polkadot Cake Shop for all of your cake needs!
