This was my first time ordering from Unique Designer’s Cakes. I had high hopes, following the mostly positive reviews I had read. I was, however, utterly disappointed! I ordered a ready-to-go cake, for $55.64—a steep price for it’s size, but I figured it was worth it for the special birthday it would be serving. First off, the box felt very cold when I picked it up, and when I mentioned that they said the cake needed to remain refrigerated and that is why it felt cold. They instructed me to take the cake out of the refrigerator three hours ahead of the serving time. A paper enclosed with the cake said to take it out two hours ahead of serving, but I’m glad I waited even longer than they had told me in person! I ended up taking the cake out four hours prior to serving. Upon cutting into it, the center was still extremely cold, and the icing hard and crumbly. The person I had talked to had assured me that all their cakes are made same day. Given that the inside of the cake was still that cold after sitting on the counter in a warm room for four hours makes me think that there is NO WAY they had just put it in the refrigerator a few hours before I picked it up, after baking it same day— it had to have been refrigerated at least overnight! This was unacceptable, especially since their paper instructions said the cake should be ready to eat two hours after removal from the fridge! When you are serving a cake on a special occasion, timing is essential and, in my case, was completely off and ended up ruining the cake cutting/serving. I wish that were all I had to provide feedback on, but there is more. The entire top, side, and bottom of the cake were overbaked and therefore very dry all around the edges. And if that weren’t enough, this cake tasted very similar to a regular box cake mix with store-bought frosting—definitely something I could’ve made. I was extremely disappointed by the entire experience, particularly given what I paid!! I will never...
Read moreMy cake was absolutely beautiful. when I picked it up the lady told me that the cake was frozen and it needed to sit out for a little bit. I said okay, paid the remaining balance and left. So, after about five and a half hours I went back to my hotel. I was going to cut my cake to give my guest some,but the cake was Rock solid. When I tell you I could literally punch the cake, I could punch the cake. The fondant on the cake was so hard it was inedible. I used a knife to cut the cake, I tasted the red velvet cream cheese inside when I tell you it was horrible it was horrible. I've had red velvet and cream cheese mix before and it was delicious but this cake was just horrible.
I do not recommend this bakery. I'm from out of town I had this Chanel cake created for my birthday while in Miami again, the cake design was absolutely beautiful but the physical cake could not be eaten the fondant on the outside was hard as brick. The inside red velvet cake was just inedible, tasted like card board. I do not recommend this bakery, don't waste your money. I don't care if they were on the food Network or not their cakes are beautiful but they are not edible.
when you're celebrating with loved ones and they see a beautiful cake and you cut it open they want to taste. You want to share that moment with them but unfortunately I was not able to. Complete waste of not only money but time. I could've had grocery store cake that tasted better than this brick card board cake. Should've read all reviews...
Read moreFrom first speaking with Juan to owner Karolina my 2nd experience was more than incredible. Karolina took over and was patient and amazing from beginning to end also with the kindness of Rogelio with the handling and care of the delivery, which you rarely see these days. I asked her to create a cake for my Grandmothers 100th birthday that we were celebrating in Miami Beach at Mr.Chow’s restaurant. I had a few specifics to the cake that she knocked out of the park but wanted her incredible craftsmanship and technique to show which she did to say the least. She is the best of the best. My grandmother had a squirrel named Mr.Peanuts on her balcony for many Years which she would feed peanuts. That was my theme.. and the cake she created was the most UNIQUE and amazing cake I have ever seen. The flavor of raspberry and Vanilla was delicious and the entire cake was incredible. This moment with my family was Priceless and Karolina and Team stole the show with this masterpiece. Thank you!!!! “My grandmother thought it was real and didn’t...
