Carmen Rosa’s did such a cute job! I’ve been getting cakes from here since I was a kid, and have always loved them. For our joint birthday celebration, we ordered 3 heart shaped cakes in the Powerpuff Girls colors, all with different flavors. Because I knew this would be a complicated order to discuss over the phone, I went in person to place the order. They made it super easy and allowed me to email them a few inspiration photos too. I paid in full when I ordered in person, so pickup was super smooth! Each cake was $35 and was said to feed 10 people but even with huge slices we fed way more than that! Our initial pickup time was 5pm but they needed about 20 minutes to finish up the cakes. They have become popular and a bit busy, so I recommend setting an earlier pickup time of about 30-45 min if you’ll be in a hurry. It was also the day before a snow storm, so I imagine more customers were asking to pickup early in anticipation of closures. Overall the cakes were fresh, sweet, and made to order! I’m impressed with what they were able to do with their marshmallow-like frosting, which if you don’t know it’s not forgiving and hard to pipe super fine or detailed because of its texture.
Needed a custom cake last minute. They came through! The cake tasted amazing. Very fresh and soft.
This is a hit or miss place. I ordered a 2 tier cake $200 for a special occasion. What I received was a hard cake, the frosting was hard and they did not fulfill my request, they messed up my order. When I called to complain, they informed me this is how dominican cakes are, which is not true. I have ordered dominican cakes before and they're fresh and frosting is fresh as well elsewhere. This cake fell apart as I cut it. I was so embarrassed.
Ordered my birthday cake on the day of and it was very good! I do wish there was more pineapple filling to it but overall 10/10, definitely getting any and all my future cakes from here.
Bought today and the cake was NASTY rock hard, someone almost choked on it. The frosting was hard as cement. Total waste of money and they refused to rectify the situation when we called them about how bad the cake was. Never again and will not recommend any purchase there.
