After many people recommend this bakery on the Grand Rapids informed page, I paid $125 fully up front for my 8inch size custom cake. It was for my husbandâs 30th birthday and Star Wars themed. The owner was nice and responsive on instagram. I sent her the design and size Iâd prefered and we decided on pick up date / time. The cake was ready on time.
I understand the cake wouldnât look exactly the same as the photo and I was fine with that, but what I wasnât anticipating was a difference in quality. My frustrations: âThe âStar Warsâ lettering on the side of the cake looked printed out and just slapped on the side of the cake. The inspo photo is clearly elevated with fondant (I think?) and the lettering was cut in the shape of the letters, and not left like a plain square. The lettering I received was also very small compared to the inspo photo. â Darth Vader head paper was wrinkled and had two red fingerprints on top. They probably touched the red light saber then touched the darth vader paper, but still it did not look good and was highly disappointing. â Light sabers were very small compared to the inspo photo. They also seemed a bit lumpy and not smooth in places. â âHappy birthday Justinâ in the base was not included when she originally made the cake. I asked if it was going to be added since it was in the inspo photo and they stated they did not have any icing left to write on the base in black but could do it in fondant. The writing was sloppy and didnât look nice and clean like the inspo photo.
If I had known what my cake would look like before I paid I would have never paid $125 for this cake. I didnât ask for any form of refund because I know the baker still spent time and materials on my cake, but I did want to share what I asked for and what I received...
