I go here for so many events and they usually always have what I’m needing. This time, I was needing to purchase a clear cake stand. They have so many gorgeous ones to choose from that you can purchase or rent. I ended up purchasing one, and it turned out extremely gorgeous!!! I highly recommend this store for any of your cake supply needs! And they are always so super nice!

I love little home in the wall (not a typo) places like this. Im not a baker or brewer, but if I was in the catering business this joint would be my Mecca. Wide selection and staff has wonderful attention to customer needs, even when that customer is saying I dont belong here, Im not going to buy anything, but I want to know about your store anyway. The world would be a better place if every store front shop was as perfectly adapted to its customers needs as this one. Trader Joes take a note please.

Ive been coming to this place for years and love their products. However, they need to have restrooms available for customers. I have a medical condition and was very close to having an accident. After explaining this to staff, I was disappointed when they still refused to let me use the restroom (luckily the storage place nearby let me use theirs).

Local supply store for cake decorating, candy making, and wine and beer making. Great place to find unique molds, colors, display boxes and tons of flavorings. Helpful, friendly staff will help you find whatever you need.

This place has everything a baker needs! And typically at a lower price than you can find at Michaels or AC Moore. Definitely my go-to when I need anything baking related.

Review №11

Usually my go to shop. But the edible image department needs work. The price for one Printed sheet of edible images is insanely high and it was BLURRY! They didn’t tell me exactly what they needed before they printed it, which was the original picture (could’ve easily emailed it to them then and there) then they refused to print again without me paying all over again. This shop gets more and more depressing. Sorry but I think I’m done with wine and cake.

I went with a friend. I dont bake or make candy. I DO eat baked goods and candy. (Which is why I dont bake.) They really seem to have everything! Boxes, plates, platters, forms, cookie cutters in every imaginable shape as well as rings to make your own shape. Candy, molds, glaze, cake theme toppers. Im sure I am forgetting things, there was just so much! If you are looking for it, I am sure they have it, including Items in the back.

I love this place and have been shopping here for years. Todays experience started out great until I was assisted by a young man with purple hair. He was terse, rude and condescending. This is not the norm for this business and I was really sad to see this attitude in what I consider an excellent business.

Review №38

Found this place years ago when I was making my homemade wine. I was quite surprised when first entering seeing the store was huge! It had alot of stuff not related to just wine/beer/cider.They had cake stuff, candy stuff, things that were the namesake of the stores name (the Hobbies part) Its definitely is the place to go!I like the place cause its supposedly been here for awhile. I make wine now and again and know without a doubt that W&CH Inc. Will be around after months of Not visiting the store and that there is no need to order yeast or other materials online since its local.

Great selection. Prices are a bit high, but its kind of normal for a mom and pop store to have this issue, since they buy quality, not bulk. Great place to get assistance with beer making, candy making, cake decorating...the list goes on. Supplies galore!

Great place. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is because of the hours. Monday was literally my only time to shop there and since they changed and closed on Mondays I can no longer go. I miss being able to shop there and now have to do all my shopping online.

Anything you could think of needing, they had it! There was an entire wall of different types of food safe dyes and pigments. There were huge sections for chocolate molds, cake/cupcake molds, fondant supplies, icing supplies, bridal cakes, various size boxes for baked goods and all sorts of toppings and mix-ins. The staff was very knowledgeable and helped me make a few decisions for a cake I was making

Very helpful people. Im a newbie and was looking to start brewing Mead. Asked the guy behind the counter for help and he spent a solid 30 minutes talking to me and showing me what I could use to make it. They have a whole kit for it but he made sure that I grabbed bottles and explain the differences in each. Good place. Will update when I make my first batch of mead.

Love this little store. Not much room for parking but its perfect for exactly what the name suggests- if youre a baker or make your own alcohol. Nice selection for birthdays, baby showers, weddings, etc. Lots of merch for booze making too. The staff is nice and polite. Nice little hobby store.

This is a family business. Grandma, daughters, grand daughters and great grand daughters. These folks are here to help you with a smile. If you can, make sure you take a class here. I have taken many classes and each class was well worth the time and money. If you are baking, making candy, brewing beer or making wine they have you covered.

Review №82

Love is place, they have a ton of hard to find items. They offer classes and lots of advice on projects. The staff have been there forever and really know their stuff. You see a lot of businesses and professionals shopping this store for the little details. I like that you van order online and pick up in 2 hours. Its very clean and organized tbroughout the store. That is key to a place that stocks so any small items. I look here first over tbe big box stores. If they do not have it here it more than likely doesnt exist. They always give you time to browse the store with out stalking you, but when you need someone they are close by. I love this place so much. Its a wonderland for a person like me

When I came to visit our son for the week I stumbled upon this place. I was surprised at all the stuff they have here. If your looking to make something special such as a cake or some homemade wine, beer or whatever they should have it or could point you in the direction. Sure wished I had a store like this here at home.
