Cake & All Things Yummy — Restaurant in Kernersville

I scheduled an appointment with this establishment for a cake tasting and meeting to discuss what kind of wedding cake I wanted for my upcoming wedding in June. When booking this appointment, the wedding coordinator reassured me that my wedding date was still available and that they'd be able to accommodate more than one wedding that day, including mine. I get a call within a week of my cake tasting appointment from Cake & All Things Yummy.. they leave me a voicemail saying they have "booked up for my wedding date so they won't be able to make a wedding cake. They can make cupcakes but I'll need to pick them up on my wedding day". She ended the voicemail by basically begging me to go ahead and cancel my appointment for the cake tasting. I didn't call back, quite frankly because I'm disgusted that someone who handles weddings on a regular basis would drop this bomb on someone days before their appointment (1) and (2) on THEIR VOICEMAIL of all places. I get a call again today basically hounding me to confirm whether or not I'll be there tomorrow. So what I gather is they want me to respect their time and the appointment I had scheduled over a month ago but they had no regard for that appointment when they gave away my wedding day to someone else. What a disappointment! Why would I pay good money to have cupcakes made for my wedding only to have to pick them up on my wedding day... that is the last thing I am going to have time for or want to worry about on June 16th, 2018. If I'm going to do that I might as well save myself a lot of money and take my business to...

I write reviews for a few sites and have for years. When I review a place of business, especially a restaurant, I strive to be realistic and fair. For example, I come from a long line of biscuit makers, so if I have a biscuit somewhere I try to not be too overly critical...but you can bet your last dollar, I know a good biscuit! Also, if I am rating taste, I don’t get bogged down in talking about the prices. If the customer service was subpar, I try to not make that about the taste. It is helpful to separate out why I am giving a particular rating and what I am rating, so the reader can get something of value. NEEEOOOWWW as for this business, I am rating strictly taste. I have had nearly everything they have offered since they opened. The cakes, cupcakes, cookies, breads and bars are all SUPER well made with love. The taste is not your average “preserved to death” baked good that this country has come to think of as good. The flavors are rich and real - no aftertaste of fake junky artificial flavors. No, you won’t pay $2 for this level of quality! Head on down to the Walmart if that is what you wish to pay. If you are looking for the kinds of baked goods that other countries have as a standard, then this is your place. If you are looking for attention to detail that only comes with loving what you do, then head over to one of my all...

Cake & All Things Yummy was an opportunity stop based on me being in the area. First time being in the area and a local/regular recommended and directed me to it. She even recommended a specific cupcake and I will speak on that in a second.

Came on Saturday 3-13-21 to somewhat of a line outside as they only allow two parties in at a time. The line moved however.

The aforementioned local directed me to get the pineapple coconut cupcake. I also purchased a white chocolate almond one as this looked great as well. Of course there were plenty of flavors to choose from and ready to roll. I believe they were around $3.39 each and this is comparable to like places I have been. The white chocolate almond was good and a reorder, but the pineapple coconut one was fantastic. Pieces of pineapple throughout the cake, moist, and the icing and coconut shavings were about as good as it gets. Do yourself a favor and get this. Get more than one. Because...damn.

The employee helping did mention that one cupcake flavor that I can't remember, the full price of of it would be donated (in some form) to Officer Sean Houle of the Kernersville PD. Officer Houle was shot three times while on duty. I am not a Kernersville citizen, but I appreciate community supporting police and other first responders.

Go get the pineapple coconut...
