Reviews Sweets Cakes & Pastry

Cody is amazing! My wedding cake fell through two weeks before my big day and Sweets pulled through with a wonderful cake and delicious cupcakes! Everyone was professional and friendly. She even managed to schedule a tasting which convinced me to do cupcakes so I could get more flavors! Each time I visited the shop, I purchased a couple more treats to try and I was never disappointed. This gem is perfect for big orders and swinging by for a quick treat!

Sweets made my wedding cake and we were very happy with it. They took care of delivering it to my reception venue, as well as coordinating with the florist to get the decorative flowers. The cake tasted great and looked beautiful.

Visiting my folks for the holiday, my mom was excited to purchase a couple of pies from Sweets Cakes & Pastry. One star is being VERY generous! She ordered a pumpkin pie & a pecan pie. The pumpkin pie was burnt on the top and the crust was extremely thick & too hard to cut through with a fork. We ended up only being able to eat the pumpkin pie filling. I don't even know where to start with the pecan pie. The crust was chewy, undercooked & almost impossible to scrape off of the bottom of the pie tin. The filling only covered 3/4 of the actual pie! There was a huge, empty, gaping hole in the pie. My mom was embarrassed to serve these to her guests. I understand Laramie is a small town & there is not a lot of bakeries to choose from. However, I truly believe the reason that small businesses fail is because of instances such as this. For the $40 spent on these two pies, my mom was so disappointed and certainly any of the local grocery stores or even Wal-mart would've been a much better choice. If I actually lived here, I would NEVER recommend this bakery to anyone...not even for something as simple as a pie. (Too bad I couldn't include a photo!) **** Update 12/25/17 The bakery contacted my folks & asked them to give Sweets Cakes & Pastery another chance to earn their business. They offered them desserts for Christmas & by chance, my family & I , as well as all of my siblings & their families were back in Laramie for the holidays. (the same 12 people who experienced the unfortunate pie debacle) Sweets provided a chocolate cherry Yule Log & a tray of Christmas cookies. The Yule Log was decorated beautifully & the chocolate cake was light & flavorful, with a light chocolate frosting rolled in it with cherries & chocolate shavings (not overly sweet). We were all pleasantly surprised. The assortment of cookies was good too; decorated shortbread & sugar cookies. These desserts were MUCH better than the pies & I appreciated the bakery going the extra mile to make it right with my mom.

I love this shop and the owner. Cody always has a smile to share. I love her baking skills. My wife was craving some chocolate chip cookies and Cody's did not disappoint!
