This is the first time I ordered from this bakery., I was specifically looking for opera cake . I was excited to find out they made it. But when I get home, I tasted the cake and it tasted like old musty shoes, I also purchased a piece of tsunami cake it was dry. What a waste of money and gas.
I’ve been going to Oak Mill Bakery for many years and I knew that is where I wanted to get my wedding cake from. Their pastries and cakes are just sooo good. Now, I had a wedding cake in mind of course and It was the semi-naked cake. When we met with Basia, she convinced us to get the chocolate flavor since It will look better with the semi-naked look I was going for instead of choosing a marble or vanilla flavor. We chose the raspberry mousse for the filler and let me tell you, It was sooo good. I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed with the way our cake would taste. Now, where I was extremely disappointed was with the fact that my cake looked nothing like what I wanted. I have shown Basia the look that I was going for and she said that It was no problem to do. It didn’t seem difficult in my eyes, no crazy designs, just semi-naked look. She did tell me that there is an extra cost to the semi-naked look, which initially shocked me. She told me that It was because It requires more work to get that look. I’ve attached photos for comparison with what I showed her via email and on my phone on multiple occasions. My florist put the flowers on my cake and thank God that she did because my cake would have just looked like a white cake…that’s It, just a white cake, no semi-nakedness to It except for three SMALL streaks. You can also see the stand that each tier is on which cheapens the look even more. The first time that I saw my cake was when I walked up to It for my cake cutting ceremony. Imagine my disappointment. Of course, I hid my disappointment but boy was I fuming. Not only because of the way that It turned out but also, I found out that my coordinator was having trouble getting ahold of Oak Mill Bakery. My coordinator was ready to go to a store to pick up a random cake in place because she didn’t think it would show up since no one was getting back to her. Overall, I thank God that at least it tasted good and that the flowers were there because It really would have looked sort of sad.
Beautiful cakes, desserts, snacks- available and made to order! Lovely bakery! Support local businesses!
Excellent quality and a very large selection. They have a full selection of traditional and new flavors of paczki. I was also very happy to see that they were open early for the traditional Polish day, not just Fat Tuesday.
My mother went in and purchased 3 cakes one for my father and two for me. The red velvet one tasted like mold when I called to let them know they told me I had to hurry up and take the whole cake before they closed or they wouldn’t be able to do anything. Took the cake and when I arrived the manager Kasia was extremely upset saying she didn’t believe me and that I was lying. I asked her to taste the cake if she thought I was lying, she did and found I was not lying and that the cake indeed had mold. She then said “oh, let me see….I’m sorry”. So after wasting 30min of my birthday there arguing with the manager Kasia, she finally gave me a refund. All I was asking for was a different cake, not a refund but the manager was extremely disrespectful. After being a loyal customer for many years, not sure if I would ever return. This experience has definitely left a bad taste.
I've been looking for a good bakery ever since the Swedish Bakery closed. The search continues. I went to Oak Mill Bakery last week. i bought one sweet roll, a package of puff pastry sticks 18 - 6" sticks and 12 kolaczkis. I gave the cookies to my friends and they said that they were just "good". The sweet roll was okay Costco's are much better and the puff pastry sticks were stale. My bill was $28.00! This place is way overpriced for the quality of their goods. I will not be returning there!
It's was really dried when I got the Paczki, I will definitely continue going to Weber's bakery. I tossed them in the garbage because they were bad ..
You can get expertly made cookies, with quality tasting ingredients. So far I only tasted the cookies. Polish baking is not overly sweet. Their flavors come through true, without overbearing sweetness.
Ordered a $100 custom 8-inch cake for a 40th birthday and it was wrong. I asked for a whipped cream cake with a layer of fresh strawberries, and they gave me a buttercream cake with no strawberries. We were disappointed when we cut into the cake, but hoped the bakery would do something to make it right when we called the next morning to let them know. By the way, I would have gladly brought the leftover cake back to the bakery the next day if they had asked, but they just said to send a picture, which I did. They are giving me a $12 refund for the missing layer of strawberries. Zilch for the frosting being wrong because I was apparently supposed to know that the design I requested could not be done with whipped cream, even though no one told me that when I ordered a WHIPPED CREAM cake. I wasn't going to leave a bad review, but they sealed the deal by offering nothing more than $12 and half an apology. As a southsider I should know to stick to Weber's - been ordering custom cakes from Weber's for decades and never once have they screwed up an order. And if they did, I'm willing to bet they'd refund more than $12 for a cake that was completely wrong.
Loved every cake I tried from here
