This was my first time ever having a cake made by Beeâs Knees. My experience was absolutely AMAAAAAZINNNG! I had a gender reveal cake done and I was a bit particular on how I wanted my cake designed (I made and showed the staff a whole mood board I had curated lol). I expressed that this gender reveal cake was a really huge part of my party as I had recently loss my son in April. They made me feel very seen and made sure I felt comfortable trusting them with this cake. The cake turned out so much better than I had expected!! The details were spot on plus the flavor of the cake so soooooo good! One of the guest even made a comment that the cake was so moist he thought it was wet! The cake itself was really thick but also light and fluffy at the same time! The only criticism my guest had was that the icing was a tad bit too sweet and that the gold pearls were non edible! (Something I was unaware of as when we picked up the cake they made no mention of them being non edible). Other than those two small minor things, everything was 10000/100. I will be having my baby shower cake and cookies made from here as well!! Thank you to the staff for making this such a great first time experience! I will definitely be a...
   Read moreI thought I left this review months ago, guess I forgot to post it 𤌠I love to bake so I rarely go out for bakery items, except occasionally special birthdays. However I was turned on to Bees Knees by Miss Margot awhile back and let me tell you those petit fours are to die for!! Gorgeous little flower-covered angel toes (I have no idea where that came from, but I'm sticking by it!). When I eat them I feel like a queen, as they are truly the little cakes of the Gods! So decadent, so DANGEROUSLY ADDICTIVE, I crave them all the time. They have become the cakes by which I judge all other cakes. Their cupcakes were also very good -moist and flavorful- but the petit fours are my big weakness. I've never been crazy about fondant, but DANG. They're sweet but not TOO sweet, with maybe the lightest hint of lemon? They're well sized for petit fours, I will eat them until I get sick.. and then I will have one more just for good measure đ They should be saved for special occasions, but I'm thinking Monday is a special occasion... I mean, its gotta be somebody's birthday or anniversary somewhere,...
   Read moreThe cupcakes were good, not great, but the biggest problem was the rude staff. I ordered (and paid) for 2 dozen cupcakes (yeah, a $100 order) to be ready at 10:30am. I arrived at 10:00 when they opened and told the woman who (grudgingly) open the door that I was early but thought they might be ready. After giving her my name she said âthey will be ready at 10:30 like you orderedâ. No âIâm afraid they arenât done yetâ or âit will be a whileâ, but a short rude statement. Instead of calling her out for her attitude I left. I didnât want to take a chance on her doing something rude to the food too. I returned at 10:30 and got the cupcakes. Again they were fine. Not worth $4/each and an attitude, but fine. Given the number of bakeries in Athens it seems like being just a little pleasant might help you stay in business. I mean there is another bakery in the same strip mall. I will not be going back and advise no one else to either. You can do much...
