edit -- customer service was excellent. Gave me a gift card to give them another try. Will do! Cake was very dense and did not taste "freshly" baked. Frosting was very good.

WOW! That's just about all I can say about these cakes. They are AWESOME! Okay, admittedly, I've only tried one of them, but it was amazing! I had the "Lucious Lemon Cake" and these are my thoughts on it: From the moment you pick up the box your cake is in, you can tell that this is a SERIOUS cake. You might think they left a cast iron baking pan in there, but no--that's just the weight of the cake itself. Then you get the cake home and open the box to find the most gorgeous looking cake you've ever seen. It's so perfect it looks like it must be made of the fondant--the most disappointing "food" ever to be put on a cake. But when you try it, you discover it is not at all fondant. It's just really thick and rich buttercream frosting, perfectly coated in a layer of colored sugar. This year, we ended up having 2 cakes for my birthday. The first was a small cake from the grocery store I think. It was light and fluffy with a whipped cream frosting and the three of us nearly finished it off in one night. It was with that cake in mind that I suggested my wife get the 9 inch as our second cake we were going to eat with friends. As it turns out, the first cake we had gotten was actually a 4 inch, so the one from SusieCakes was much bigger and we would have been just fine with the 6 inch. Based on how much we ate of the SusieCake the first night, I thought that the 9 inch SusieCake was good for around a dozen people. But when I tried to eat the same sized slice the second night, I realized that I way underestimated. This cake could probably feed at least 2 dozen. Now some people might think that the piece you cut them is too thin, but if anyone complains after eating their slice, just hand them the rest of the cake and challenge them to finish it. Now I love my sweets, but this cake was so rich that my normal sized slice was too much for me! It was certainly delicious, but it's rich enough that it is easy to go overboard and cut yourself off a slice much bigger than you can actually handle!

Complex flavor profiles, perfect textures, decadent while not overly sweet, fresh...are some adjectives that come to mind when I think of their baked...anything. Look, I’ve had a better carrot cake but that was from a woman who was over 80 years old....35 years ago, so I’m not holding that against them. The team members that work here are also worth mentioning. Knowledgeable, customer centric, and hard working.

Oh soooooo good! Came to enjoy a Yelp event and ended-up taking lots of cupcakes home....So good buttercream was incredible.....So stop by and get one or four......then hit Blue bottle Coffee to enjoy some great Java....The two places are near each other too! Prices are no different than other places where you get a quick sweet.....But I think these are a better deal as they taste so fresh!
