Such a cute place to splurge. Two slices of cake and two coffees were almost $50 but the cake was delicious and the atmosphere sweet. We were lucky and it wasnt very busy. I cant imagine if it was full capacity. It would have been really tight inside.

The food is really good and shimmers with sparkles too. My princess aka daughter loved her carrot cake and unicorn hot chocolate. This place is an experience however is overpriced. You can have better cake at a lower price elsewhere, but not have this unique experience.

Cake Bake is a very nice, clean, and unique place to visit. We had the Pumpkin Cheesecake and Pixie Cake 🎂 It was very tasty 😋 We will be back for sure!

Whimsy and magical just don’t do TCBS any justice. I am so glad I made the journey to Indianapolis from Chicago to enjoy Gwen’s Earl Court chocolate cake and a glass of her sparkling rosé.Both of these options were spectacular. I ordered a slice of the red velvet to go in addition to the cookie dough cake. The red velvet wasn’t my fave but my friend loved her slice of the cookie dough and she got it 48 hours later.

Whimsical and magical place! No wonder why its one of Oprahs favorite places. We were lucky to find a spot at the bar to sit and eat as we were a walk-in. I highly recommend making reservations weeks in advance if youre planning a stop here. The mission is to create a magical experience for guests and they certainly do, especially in the small, beautiful details. The decor changes and menu is fresh. When my husbands lemonade came out with glitter on the lemon garnish, I just knew it was the best place to be! Although we are not locals, we have since been back because its just that great!

This little cake bake shop is super adorable and has kind of a Disney aesthetic with the uniforms of the employees and the way its decorated. This location is quite small but my friend and I enjoyed the more private atmosphere. We got our cake slices promptly and the waiter was kind. Each slice is about $16 so bear in mind. They are huge slices! I took about half home but my friend did eat all of hers. She left behind most of the frosting since theres A LOT on it. Personally, the cake was too sweet for me. It was delicious but I did have higher expectations and it didnt quite meet them. Nonetheless, I would try another flavor of cake again but perhaps share it with someone else. It is worth trying once in your life!

The waitress who took care of us was kind and pleasant. The atmosphere was just ok to me though.My husband and I ordered some cake and I had a glass of lemonade. The lemonade was pink and it was very good, not too sweet, either.My husband had the carrot cake, which I was surprised didn’t contain nuts or raisins. I can always pass on the raisins, but I worried about there not being any nuts. It was a large slice and beautifully dusted with pixie dust. It was dense, moist, and just delicious with the icing it was paired with. I would absolutely return for a to go box with a slice of that cake inside!My selection was the red velvet cake. It was beautifully presented with a sprinkling of pixie dust, too. A sweet touch. The cake looked moist and absolutely delicious! The first few bites were as expected. The buttercream icing adhering the three layers of cake tasted delicious with the red velvet cake and small chocolate chips within. As I continued to eat though, the cake just got drier and less enjoyable. It had a substantial amount of pink icing on the outside and top so I hoped that would help with the overall taste of the remaining cake. It did not. It had the consistency of shaving cream and the taste to go with it. It didn’t have any semblance of a whipped icing at all. It was beautifully decorated and the color pink was most appropriate with the red velvet cake, but absolutely flavorless. I, of course, ran out of the buttercream icing adhering the layers, so I stopped eating and nibbled on what my husband had left of his carrot cake.I am glad we made the trip, but I don’t expect we will be back.. Lest we are close and there is fresh carrot cake.

The best cake I have every had in the US over the past five years!!! The interior decoration for the Christmas was super nice, and the staff was very helpful! We ordered the signature chocolate cake (Gwendolyns Famous Earls Court Chocolate Cake) - highly recommended!! The cake itself was not too sweet and firm, and the ganache layer brought in very beautiful and delicate taste to the cake with strong chocolate flavors. If I have time, I would plan to make reservations in advance and dine in next time!

Biting into the Magic bar and Raspberry bar will make your eyes roll back with just how amazing they are. These bars hit the sweet spot so perfectly where your eyes just cant help but widen as you try to figure out how to consume the bars faster. Definitely stay away from their sandwiches as theyre overpriced for little to no meat.

Delicious cake (of course) but honestly I was more impressed with the quiche! It was DELICIOUS. My husband and I shared a quiche and then split a piece of cake and it was a perfect lunch.We enjoyed the Cookie Dough cake (how do they get the pieces of cookie dough to not turn into cookies while baking????) and my husband thought the Red Velvet (our to go) was also amazing. The cream cheese filling was DELICIOUS. Best cream cheese filling Ive ever had, hands down.

It is a girlie girls place, for sure!! Enjoyed it a lot. Would be w wonderful place for Mom/Grandma/ young daughter to celebrate. Beautiful decor, desserts as far as the eye can see. Also good role modeling opportunity on how yo be ladylike and manners. Our server was Stephanie, and she was great. Will most assuredly return!!😊

Review №17

Long time customer to both locations and I was disappointed with the entire experience this time, from the young man who never asked if he could help me to the 15.00 apple pie with horribly hard crust that tasted less than fresh. NOT what I made a special trip for. For a high end attitude where you are suggested to tip at the check out stand 18 to 22 % for carry out.May I suggest focusing on old fashion customer service. Make sure everyone has been helped THEN feel free to chat amongst yourselves as you do your side work. As a customer I could care less who sells a swan

Review №28

I’ve been a big fan but my most two recent trips have been terrible. I’m pretty sure this slice was $15 and this is what I got. I don’t mind spending money but for this? Taste wasn’t much better as it was dry and crumbly. The cookies are dry and not worth it as well. Not sure if I’ll be back.

A must visit! This place is GORGEOUS. Highly recommend for a girls day out! Im gluten free and they had gluten free cake, which was very good. Cake slices are $13 a piece, but youre paying for the experience. This place can get crowded very quickly. Parking is a nightmare since its on a residential street. They only have a handful of customer parking spots in their parking lot.

The manager wasnt very friendly or welcoming. She never greeted me. She didnt have any sense urgency to print my receipt after I had placed my order. She proceeded to take a customer order and finish up decorating after I ask for a print out of my receipt. My child loves this place. To see the joy on her face is the reason we come here.

This place is veryyyyy beautiful! I love everything about the details and decorations. My sister and aunt got their cake from here and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, I was unable to try the delicious cake because they did not have any vegan options 😭 When they start making vegan cakes, I will be back!

Review №33

I do have to say the place was adorable, but the cake was not even delicious. It was so dry and stale that it seemed as if it was an edge piece left out overnight. It was $15 a slice, so at this price I was expecting heaven. Ive had grocery store cakes taste far better than this. Huge disappointment.

I had an awesome experience here! The girls that waited on us were amazing, with an awesome knowledge of the menu in and out. The dessert was also great, with tons of options for cake. I have never seen so many options! The cake we did get was FABULOUS, so moist! Everything about our meal was great. We both got Rose--I got no 69 and it was perfect without being too sweet. The entire inside of the restaurant is absolutely beautiful, with flowers everywhere. Absolutely will be returning

The best cake I have ever had! I just recently used The Cake Bake for my wedding and it was a hit. everyone loved it. I was even able to get a slice of GF cake for someone that needed a GF option to eat. The process of ordering and picking up was easy. My family cant wait to try more!Pictured is the tiramisu cake.

Review №38

Its always fun stopping by this place. It’s small and can feel a bit cramped, but it’s such a lovely place. The desserts are expensive but most are tasty. My husband loves the salted chocolate chips cookies. The macaroons are great, and you can truly taste the flavors, like rose and lavender. I ordered a birthday cake from here and it was delicious. All of my family loves the light and fluffy bitter cream. You’re not just paying for dessert, but also for the experience. I recently went back for an early dinner and we were very satisfied with our food. This was some of the best if not the very best cheesecake I’ve ever had.

As I made my entrance, I instantly knew I was home. This place is a fancy high tea dream come true. Everything is flowers, bright colors and sparkly fairy lights. The chandelier’s little French skeleton dolls grinned cheerily at me as I took my seat. I was enchanted. I ordered the lavender latte and the Marie Antoinette. Both were beautiful and absolutely delicious. A delightful experience!

Ive been sitting on doing this review for awhile now. Ive had 3 experiences with the Cake Bake Shop. My first experience, was with a friend. The ambience was incredibly beautiful but we were both unimpressed by our cake. The slices were huge and looked beautiful but was lacking in flavor. My second experience was with my daughter for her birthday lunch. We didn’t order cake and we had pasta and a chicken salad. Those were excellent. I tried again a couple of months ago hoping that my first experience was a fluke. I ordered an entire Raspberry Champagne cake for my birthday celebration. The cake was gorgeous but again lacking in flavor, the cake itself was hard and not very moist. Alot of too sweet icing. I was devastated because Ive ordered cakes from Whole Foods for 1/3 of the price that was way better.

My friend took me to Cake Bake for a belated birthday brunch. (Note, we went to Cake Bake for her birthday earlier this year and remember how everything tasted.) We immediately ordered the rosé cappuccinos. We were a bit disappointed as the coffee tasted burnt and there was very little rosé flavor. We both ordered the rosemary, ham and goat cheese quiche, in which the top of quiche (unfortunately) was a little overdone. One edge of my friend’s quiche was burnt. The pastry dough had good flavor, but it wasn’t light and flaky like the last time. We ordered another round of coffee, just to make sure we didn’t get a bad batch. I ordered the coconut latte and my friend had the cappuccino. The coffee still tasted burnt. The manager was kind enough to credit one round of coffee from our bill. Our service was good. Our dessert was delish too; we both got the cookie dough cake.Even though our experience wasn’t as perfect as the first time, we’ll still be back.

This is a very cozy place. I like how the owner pays attention to details in her decorating and the uniforms of her employees. I had a Cafe Mocha and Raspberry Champagne Cake. It was okay. I was hoping I could taste the champagne more in the cake. I thought the cake was a bit hard and crumbly. Not as moist as I was expecting. My daughter had a Chocolate Chaud, a fancy Hot Chocolate, and The Dutchess Cake. She didnt care for the icing because it was whipped. I personally love my icing like that :-) She enjoyed the Hot Chocolate. The service was good with Daniella. We would go back to try something else.

Loved the relaxed & whimsical atmosphere of the place. We tried a little something from every section of the menu and everything was fresh and mouthwatering. The charcuterie board was a delightful sampler with some of the most flavorful & robust accoutrements. The wait staff was efficient, friendly and knowledgeable. Overall an excellent establishment for fine dining and delectable food.

We first started going only for the desserts at their Broad Ripple location, but then went back to try their soup and sandwiches, which were pretty good. We were excited to try their Carmel location and was happy with the Filet Mignon we tried. Our only complaint was that we still had to wait even after making reservations.

Review №58

I got a gift card to cake bake for christmas because I really wanted to try it out and finally went with two others last night. Thought the $100 would be enough for 3 but apparently not. Heard good things about the food but it really wasn’t too special. You could probably get the sandwich I got at Panera for half the price. The drinks were amazing (tasted both hot apple cider and lavender) but really small portions. The cake was good but not incredible. The millionaire cake was good but didn’t really enjoy the icing. The raspberry champagne was a bit dry but overall good. The red velvet was delicious and I really liked the icing. Overall, I would go again but just get the cake, and not do the sit down experience. If you do sit down, make sure to get a reservation- you get seated pretty fast if you do.

I visited this magical, ethereal place of beauty and deliciousness for the first time today, my birthday. After a long, hard day at work, Cake Bake was just the place to let me get back to that special feeling of birthdayness. The cake was delicious, the decor both whimsical and fancy, the staff sweet, polite, and attentive. Im so glad I chose to visit today and I already have plans to return next month. Highly recommend for birthdays, bridal parties, dates, or just to treat yourself or a friend.

Review №63

First time we managed to get a seat without a long wait which allowed us to marvel at the myriad of delightful details in the shops decor. The Smores hot chocolate was equally delightful to look at but was unfortunately tepid at best, and served in a small teacup. The chocolate cheesecake tasted ok but was nearly rock hard. (Perhaps not serving dated items should be a better practice.) To top off the experience, my son found a hair in his sugar cookie... We will be back, b/c in the past we have purchased tasty deserts, but quality requires constant vigilance and I have added my two cents.

When I decided to take my wife here after a year of promising, I had no idea what to expect. I honestly thought we were going in to pick up some Cakes and Pastries and take them home to eat later.Instead, I entered into a little magical cottage full of people in their Sunday bests, drinking colorful sparkling beverages and dining on light sandwiches and rich desserts.In this Alice In Wonderland-esque restaurant, I found myself feeling like an adult attending a childs tea party, complete with small tables and chairs, except the fare wasnt make believe tea and crumpets, it was 5 star brunch and confections straight out of a television show.Mothers, bring your daughters here... they will adore it. Fellas, bring you ladies here... they will adore you.

The Cake Bake Shop is a step into a fairytale in Central Indiana. The quaint, adorable cottage decorated with sparkling lights and stunning floral inside and out is sure to take your breath away. While I wasnt amazed by the food and Ive had better cake (icing tastes like butter with very little flavor), the sparkling lavender lemonade is amazing. I still give Cake Bake 4 stars for creating an atmosphere comparable to a restaurant in Disney World. The numerous accolades on the wall also are a little strange for decor, but I will continue to bring out of town guests in for a little bit of magic (and glitter ;)).

Cake Bake was a magical experience! We went for a light lunch and lots of dessert. We had penne and a baguette for lunch. The penne was delicious and it had a little heat kick. The baguette was delicious but the butter was amazing! Definitely try the sparkling lavender lemonade. It was sweet but not overly sweet. The Marie Antoinette had raspberry and cream on a macaron shell. It was so delicate and flavorful. The cakes were phenomenal. We had the Famous Earls Chocolate, carrot, blackberry, and the cinnamon roll cakes. The pieces were huge so $10-13 per slice wasnt terrible. My only complaint was the cinnamon roll cake was a little dry. Overall I will definitely go again!Tip: Make your reservation for right when they open. The place fills up quick! Since we got in right away we had timely service.

Drove from NY to visit a friend. We came to the shoppe and I was so excited as I have been following this shoppe on social media for a long time. The desserts were great but the experience overall was not. It did not seem like a child friendly or family friendly environment. The workers didn’t seem like they cared to assist us in questions about merchandise prices. It overall seemed extremely stuffy and coming from someone who has children this was very unfortunate.

A friend and I stopped in here for the first time today. My friend had been wanting us to go for a while, and I wasnt sure what to expect. When I would ask others about this place, everyone said it was amazing. Let me just tell you, the atmosphere is absolutely beautiful. I dont even know how to describe it. Thats why I included some pictures. Its definitely the kind of place I would bring my mom or my niece for their birthday.My friend and I decided to get some cake to go. The woman who served us was incredibly friendly. The entire staff there had a smile on their face, and they seemed to love what they were doing. Everyone was very well-dressed, and I kind felt out of place with my baggy sweatshirt and sweatpants. Needless to say, when I come back, I plan to dress a bit nicer.I got a piece of their espresso cheesecake, and I absolutely recommend you give it a try. The only thing I have any complaints about is the price. But Im also a college student, so Im always going to complain about price.

I hate to leave bad reviews, but this place isn’t even mediocre. I have been here multiple times and tried different cake flavors. For cake that costs $10+ per slice, it is awful. Just a bland, dry, crumbly mess. And again this is with multiple visits and different flavors. You can get a better cake from the grocery store for the same price as a slice of cake from here. Their food is the same way, bland and overpriced. I don’t really understand the hype.
