Whisk & Paddle Bakeshop

I first tried Whisk & Paddle at an open house 1.5 years ago where their samples made a memorable impact. I knew I had to have desserts from them for the wedding. Everyone I worked with was very kind and helpful during the tasting and follow-ups leading up to the day. I can only speak on their desserts since my cake was contracted with another bakery, but with the phenomenal feedback I received from guests, I have no doubt their cakes are just as delightful.The s'mores tart was unforgettable (this is what sealed the deal on having a dessert bar)--it mimics the flavor profile of a s'mores without being overly decadent; the tres leches shooter disappeared so fast and was the talk of the wedding, even more so than the wedding cake; and the lemon lavender shortbread square was to die for. The lavender flavor is very subtle. I'm not a fan of lavender in desserts/drinks, but I inhaled the one I managed to get my hands on because it leaned more lemon in flavor. If you're considering them for a dessert bar or your wedding cake--do it!

4/13/24: What wonderful treats out of such a small store! We popped in this morning shortly after their 9 a.m. opening (after hitting up the Gilbert Farmers Market). Their display cases were filled with couple small cakes, eight different cupcake flavors, some dessert shooters, and a couple bars. Oh, and they recently started offering some drinks, saying they plan to swap out drink flavors maybe once a week. This morning was basil lemonade. In hindsight, we should have bought one. Darn it. There were eight cupcake flavors, we bought one of each. I remember six: triple chocolate, champagne, poppyseed, strawberry, birthday, and lemon. We had the champagne flavor for breakfast dessert, yeah, I said breakfast dessert! :-) It was light and airy, with a small dollop of whipped cream frosting. It was not overly sweet; like Baby Bear said in the fairytale, "it was just right".The bakeshop is tucked away in a small strip mall, which means there is plenty of parking. Both the ladies we spoke with were smiling and polite. As one was filling up the box that holds a dozen cupcakes, it was extremely difficult for us not to add four more to our order so we would have a full box.When I complimented the owner on her logo, turns out she hired someone through Etsy to create it. They did an excellent job.We will definitely hit up Whisk & Paddle again the next time we're in the 'hood.

Do not miss out on this new up-and-coming bakery (used to be Sue Jacobs)! Whether you're craving something that day or are looking at reserving them for weddings/events, Whisk and Paddle definitely has lots of potential. The new owner and baker are lovely to chat with - bubbly, excited to help you, and just overall vthe type of people you would want to have a coffee meetup with. Their products are high quality, affordable priced, and currently expanding. Right now, their daily selections focus around full cakes to go, cake shooters, cupcakes, and bars/tarts, but they also do pies! Pro tip: if they have the chocolate cream pie, just buy it ... if they don't have it, then I highly recommend giving them a call. I can't wait to see what other pies and cake slices they will eventually offer.Stop by and check them out! They are also on social media!

Whisk & Paddle made the wedding cake of my dreams! It was absolutely perfect and exactly what I had envisioned! Our guests all loved the strawberry champagne flavor and were amazed at how beautiful and delicious the cake was! We are so incredibly glad to have had Whisk & Paddle cake be a part of our wedding and it will always hold a place in our hearts. We will 100% be back to the bakery for more delicious desserts!Thank you so much! Savannah and Joe
