    My grand daughters were going to the Lets Sing Taylor concert at the Palladium and they had never been to Cake Bake nor had their mom and dad. They were sooo impressed and everyone gave it a 10 out of 10 !!! The girls were incredibly excited and one of them said it was so good their fries just sparkled in their mouth! Our server was Lana and she made their night when she put a candle on our soon to be 9 yr olds cake and then sprinkled pixie dust in the girls hands told them to make a wish and blow the dust then Clap their hands! I think we have started a tradition now because our other grand daughter now wants her birthday celebration at Cake Bake too! Thank you Lana and Cake Bale for making this such an INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE for our girls! 🩷🩷🩷

    The food is good and the cake is obviously fantastic. Our server was Jason and he was amazing! My wife took her mother for her birthday and it was a nice place to celebrate. Is very pricey though, so only somewhere to go on special occasions.
