What a cute place! Amazing bakery! It’s been opened for 14 years so far and I’ve had only good experience every time because their desserts are excellent and employees are so nice and polite, incredible service ! ☺️☀️ great prices. Love their Key Lime pie, cup cakes 🧁. There are also vegan options. They know what they are doing. 😇

Vanilla Bake Shop is our absolute favorite and go-to place for outstanding delicious deserts!! From the excellent service, friendly staff, nice atmosphere and super delicious fresh and light sweet delights - Vanilla Bake Shop has it all !! They'll go above and beyond and deliver the best experience + most delicious cakes you've ever tasted! We recently ordered our BabyShower cake from there and could not have been any happier with the result. The cake was such a highlight of the party and ALL of our guests absolutely loved it! It was gone in seconds! Special Thanks for Amy and the Vanilla Bake Shop Team for always being so amazing and delivering the very best every single time!!

Just recently had their cake for our wedding. Taste soooo good!! I am still getting calls from my guests asking where that cake ordered from. I was kinda in last minute to order but Ms. Kim Paolozzi helped me so nicely and kindly to get my order placed. If you looking for wedding cake, save your time go with these guys. Can't go wrong with them.

Absolutely loved our wedding cake. The cake designer really listened to what I wanted and brought it to life. My only negative thing is that they forgot to include the 2nd flavor we really wanted but the strawberry and cream was delicious! All of our guests loved the cake!
