The Reviews

Written By: Daloris Simon

We used Athens Bakery for our wedding cake. The cake was delicious and beautiful. They did exactly what we wanted. We wanted a very modern looking four tiered cake with two chocolate and two vanilla. We even added a very special request to have a chocolate with a raspberry filling and another with a praline filling. They did just that. The cake was very moist and sweet. We received many compliments on the flavors and the presentation of the cake. The one thing we were disappointed about was that we paid for the cake and the delivery charge was $150. We thought when we ordered the cake that we would only be responsible for the $150 if the cake exceeded $500.00. We were not aware that the delivery charge was so high. We thought when we ordered the cake that the delivery would be for free or just a small charge. We were very surprised when we saw the charge. It would have been nice to have this information before we ordered the cake. If you know this before you order the cake, please let others know. If you don’t know, you should ask.

We got our cake at Athens Bakery for our wedding this September. I got in touch with John and told him exactly what I wanted. When we went in for the tasting, they had a separate room just for me and my husband. John sat down with us and asked us questions about our wedding. He made us feel very special and gave us a tour of the bakery, which was amazing. He gave us so many different samples, and they were all delicious. We wanted an orange and yellow cake, with chocolate mousse in the middle. The colors of our wedding were orange and fuschia. Well, John listened to what we said we wanted, but he also added in other ideas of his about the design and the cake. When I looked at the cake on our wedding day, it was even more beautiful than I had imagined. It was perfect! And the best part is that it tasted amazing! Our guests were all crazy about it. I emailed John after the wedding, and he answered me right away. He gave me a call for a thank you, and we had a nice conversation. I will order from them again. Their prices are also very reasonable. I will recommend them to anyone who is getting married. They are amazing!

We had a cake included in our wedding package from The Westwood athens-bakery. The lady we spoke to on the phone offered suggestions for flavors and designs. We chose to do a half sheet cake of the design we liked and a full sheet cake of another design. She walked us through the options they have for designs and we were good to go from there. We chose the flavor honey cake with cream cheese icing. When we arrived at the venue, our contact from the bakery was very friendly and helpful. When we arrived at the reception and went to cut our cake, we were amazed at how beautiful our cake was! It was exactly as we pictured it and it was delicious! Our guests loved the cake! I’m not a big cake person, but I really enjoyed this cake! I wouldn’t have changed a thing. I hope this helps any brides out there who are looking for a great tasting cake.
