We ordered the wedding cake and sent pictures of what the bride wanted (a lambeth style, traditional looking wedding cake). When he was setting the cake up at the venue, I wasn't about to tell him right then that the two tiered cake was lopsided and the decorations looked like something I could have done. The bride was standing right next to me and the last thing I was going to do was make her cry on her wedding day, but even SHE noticed the problems with the cake, and suggested that we turn the wonky side towards the wall. The cake tasted pretty good, and there was plenty of raspberry filling, but the frosting was gritty. very disappointed

ZERO stars . This place took over 1,000 from me and didn’t even make my cake . I had to reschedule due to me catching covid but my cake was already paid in full . They refused to make my cake or give me a refund . Beware very shady . Plus lady in the front makes inappropriate racial comments . Went in to get a wedding cake made and she told me I Should be shopping for a Quinceanera cake .

I choose this bakery because it was a lower price but it was not the best cake I eaten. I ordered my cake with lemon filling and you can hardly see or taste the lemon filling. I do like the promptness of them calling me, the kindness in which they took my order, and having my cake on time, but again, not the best cake I had.

We picked up our cake and 3/4 of the way home, sugar ants were crawling out of the box and out from under the cake. We called when we got home and because it was later in the day they couldn’t replace it. They suggested we bring the cake back so they can get rid of the ants for us. We requested a refund and don’t think we’ll be going back. The cream cheese icing was room temp and felt really dry so it had probably been sitting out all day.

Came after I was told owner would stay to take my custom order even though I stated I could take my business elsewhere. Lady that answered phone was condescending and said to come on in. I get here and owner is also condescending. I will take my business elsewhere.

I went in with only the idea of a picture for the cake. I had no idea for anything else. They made the process bery easy and fun. Plus, I got the exact topping my grandson wanted.

I worked with Pennington Cakes for my dessert table at my wedding. Everything tasted great! Staff are super friendly and easy to communicate/work with.

After almost 4 years, the thought of how he destroyed my wedding cake still makes me sad. He charged us almost $600 for a three tier cake that he DREW lines on to make it look like bark. The cake was super dry, hardly any raspberry filling, and the worst part was he was supposed to do sugar leaves on it! There were NO leaves at all! I double checked our receipt and it says sugar leaves! When my maid of honor called him to request a partial refund because CLEALY I paid for something I didn't get, he was so incredibly rude to her and said well I seemed fine on the day of my wedding. That's because I'm not a bridezilla. There wasn't anything at that point that could be done, so I put my own roses on it. I had a few guests later tell me they were so surprised with the low quality of the cake we chose. My sister got her wedding cake at HEB and still to this day, it is the best I've ever had. I won't be getting married again, but I also won't buy from him, and neither should you. It was crushing.

Delicious, beautiful cake! My husband's coworkers threw us a baby shower and got the cake from here. I believe the flavor was almond and holy moly it's one of the best cakes I think I've had! I'm usually not a huge icing fan, but the icing was delicious- not too sweet!I definitely recommend this place!
