The Gourmet Cake Factory

I just want to say the cake was phenomenal. I think it came out even better then the references I had given. I told my husband he could pick the wedding cake and he wanted TMNT themed and I have to say you delivered! Everyone was raving about it all through dinner and it really made a special event even better!Also, my father does not usually like 'gluten free' baked goods but said the chocolate cake was very well done and did not have any 'odd taste' as is his usual complaint when I bake Gluten Free, so that is saying a lot to you and your bakers! The strawberry cake was reportedly very good, moist and tasty.Everyone really enjoyed dessert.

I ordered a baby shower cake for my best friends baby shower. I mean, looks at the details on the cake! They did an absolutely amazing job!! It was also absolutely delicious. I'm not usually a cake fan but man, this one was delicious! I highly recommend this bakery. Everyone was so friendly and my order was done quickly and promptly.

Only wholesale or retail. They don't sell to individuals.

(See check-in post) Awful. Not one person greeted me. Two employees watched me walk in. Seriously?! Nothing?! 4:04pm?! Considering Melinda's post from 2016, you'd think you'd improve: "...Horrible serviceWalked in and no one greeted us, the woman in the back just looked at us as if she was bothered that we walked in and just stared at us as if telling us to leave.Then a man came out who wasn't very nice at all and we asked for cake slices or cupcakes and he said they were to busy with orders and couldn't accommodate us. We wanted to try the product before ordering a cake and they just lost a customer. So disappointed especially after ready the great reviews." I felt the exact same: Excited, then let down. Fix it!

We've passed this by many times when we lived up Jones, but never paid any mind to it. I've always been under the impression it was a custom cake place, which it is, but they offer great individual treats too. I figured if it has been around all these years in a odd business office center, it has to be good.We came an hour before close and there wasn't much in the way of what was in the counter. We normally wait til we get home, but the BF really wanted to eat the mini almond raspberry tart on the drive and it was so good we had to turn back and ask about it. I guess it was meant to be.He grabbed us another dozen of those tarts ($1 each mini 2 inch tart or dozen for $11). They are on a nice crunchy pastry shell, with a thin layer of raspberry jam, buttery cake, nice glaze on top with almonds, a tiny dollop of whip cream and raspberry on top. It's not a sweet dessert, but very comfort food type satisfying. The BF absolutely is gaga about this, and I really enjoy it too.The lemon meringue ($3, 4 inch tart) was rather nice as well! I am not a lemon dessert person until recently I've been able to appreciate them in small doses. So for me to love it, I think that means a lot. It wasn't overly lemony (I hate that fake tasting lemon many places do!), the meringue wasn't too stiff or sweet, the pastry shell was perfect. After talking with the owner, it sounds like a majority of their business isn't foot traffic, but a lot of supplying cafes on the strip, banquets, conventions, hotels, etc with pastries and doing custom event cakes. That means they always have treats in the back in mass quantities that is possibility not in the display case so make sure to ask!!! He always makes extra and prefers not to have a lot of stuff out in the case that are better assembled fresh (like a fruit tart), but he can probably whip it up for you if the components are made. I kinda like that approach - made and finished to order. The only problem is I wish there was a way to see/know all the secrets hiding in the back, but I'm sure he will run down what's available for the day. There wasn't a pastry over $3 I saw so I feel its very good prices for the quality. I guess since they make so much, they can keep prices low. The owner is French so the desserts are made in a French style of baking. I don't know why this place isn't somewhere with better foot traffic because they seriously would be successful on that front as well. This recent week we've gone to a few very busy and famous local pastry shops and honestly, this was a strong rival to the quality of those places, maybe even better. At least to the BF he preferred this over the spot we tried in Henderson, and thankfully closer to us near his family's neighborhood. What a nice hidden gem. Wish I knew of it sooner, but look forward to trying more this place has to offer.

Solid bakery with tasty products- beware walking in that their pastry case is very limited and the majority of their business is wholesale and special order.Spoke extensively with cashier/owner, who explained business history including location changes. Very friendly guy, but they get little foot traffic and focus their energies on custom cakes, particularly wedding cakes.Saw a few on display waiting for pickup and was there to see an order of bachelorette party cupcakes (featuring frosting-dripping phalluses) get picked up, seems they're able to do a wide variety of work.Slim pickings for walk-in order, but they have a menu for salads and sandwiches.Picked a fruit tart, almond tart, and some truffles that were all well done: perfect tart bases, delicious filling and fresh fruit, delicate flavors, aesthetically pleasing. Would go again, and pricing is good (total came to an even $4, per-item prices weren't listed or discussed), would call ahead before popping in on future visits.

I highly recommend getting personalized cakes from here! I went in the day before I needed a cake around 1:00pm and it was ready the next day at 5:30pm. (I wouldn't recommend doing it that way because realistically they need notice before making anything). The cake itself was moderately priced and absolutely delicious and fresh. She even added decorative flowers to give it extra pizzazz. You wouldn't think, looking from the outside, that this place was so special but it really is a gem. Even though they were really busy the woman who helped me was very kind and even offered to help me carry the cake,which I thought was sweet. They also have other pastries made fresh like delicious croissants and banana nut muffins, YUM!

The name speaks for itself. Truly gourmet baked goods. I love the frosting and the cupcakes are delicious. Prices are great too. The staff is always very friendly. Great for birthday cakes!

My wedding cake was a Strawberry Shortcake ordered from TGCF as part of the wedding package through Planet Hollywood Restaurant and it was to die for. Everyone loved it and nothing went to waste. The cake also looked perfect and exactly as I requested.

I requested a cake to be made for a birthday 2 weeks ago. when we went to pick up the cake, the cake wasn't made. we set a date for pick up and the sales associate couldn't find it. highly disappointed when ample time was provided to make the cake.
