Mouthwatering Custom Cakes in Omaha

Sugar Coma Treats

★★★★★ 4.9 (9)

"Such beautiful work! I asked Lori (Owner of Sugar Coma Treats) to make me a special cake for a friend who was turning 50 years old. My friend is a physician who was also celebrating joining a new hospital group. Lori researched on her own the customer's medical specialty for her cake creation, and made the cake so personalized! Lori incorporated my friend's picture, a personalized lab coat with her name on it, a stethoscope, some scans, a syringe, pills, and many other beautiful details. She made the cake strawberry flavored, and it was delicious! The cake had pink white frosting with a prominent "50" on it. My friend said it was the most beautiful cake she had ever seen! (I agree!) Lori is easy to work with, customer-focused, and detail-oriented. Lori helped me package the cake and gave me preparation instructions for the 3+ hour drive to ensure the cake arrived safely. Her creations are truly beautiful. I recommend Lori Manoj and Sugar Coma Treats highly!"

"They have really good cakes! We called them on the afternoon looking for a chocolate cake right away and they have one available! The cake was extremely delicious and very elegant! It was very affordable much less than I was expecting to spend! I can't wait till the next time I get to buy another cake!"

Sugared Ledge Bakery

★★★★☆ 4 (23)

"I finally got in to Sugared Ledge and boy, the wait has been worth it! The donuts are absolutely delicious, and as a bonus they're beautiful to look at! I got the chocolate sprinkle, vanilla sprinkle, triple blueberry glazed, and the chocolate peppermint. I love that they do a donut of the month, which is currently the chocolate peppermint, and I'll absolutely be back for more! The shop itself is adorable and welcoming, and the person who helped me was kind and personable. Get to this donut shop, you won't regret it!"

Sweet Magnolias Bake Shop

★★★★★ 4.6 (200) • $

"So many things to choose from! We love this place! They have everything baked goods and more! Scones, cookies, bars, cakes and you'll love them all! When I went in last time I got a variety of stuff for my wife's birthday at work. Two big boxes of treats and the price was very reasonable for the quality of goods! The smells are amazing when you go in and they have a wide selection of treats. Do it!"

Buttered Marshmallow

★★★★☆ 3.5 (4)

"I very recently heard about this bakery from the Faturday Omaha podcast and if you haven't heard of it yet - you seriously should check it out! I needed to order a cake for my brother's birthday, so this episode came at a very convenient time. Listening to Stacey talk about her baking passion is really what made me excited to get a cake from her - anyone who is this excited about their work must take enormous pride in it. And I'm so glad I did!She has such a huge list of flavors to choose from and all of them seriously sounded so good, especially the OG buttered marshmallow cake and all the happy hour cakes, but I went with a 6 inch 3 layer cinnamon crunch to appease all of the partygoers. Ordering the cake was super simple - you fill out an order form online and then Stacey gets back to you with the confirmation and ways to pay. I wanted to pay with credit card, so I called Stacey and she was genuinely so kind and helpful, it made me even more excited!The pickup was a breeze - just follow the instructions she sends you. The cake looked and tasted great! The buttercream frosting is a lighter, airier version of the traditional. My family also very much enjoyed the cake and my brother was very happy! Will definitely come back to Stacey for more cakes and hoping to try some of the other flavors as well - I've got my eye on the French 75!"

Cakes By Tiffany

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"Tiffany is an incredibly talented baker. Her cakes are amazing and her skills are amazing! She is very good at communication and understanding what your vision is. Her artistic skills are amazing but can we talk about the flavor for a hot second?! Her flavors are bomb!! I highly recommend her for all your cake needs!"

The Cake Specialist

★★★★☆ 4.4 (33) • $$

"Cake Baking has truly risen to a whole new level. If I had known, ten years ago, that a cake baker could bake me a 3D cake of a Disney character or of my favorite animal I would have begged & begged for one of my own for my birthday. Eating a cake, now that has stayed the same...at least for me. Cake Specialists is a family owned bakery that delivers great taste, creative designs, and happiness in each of their creations. My first meeting of a Cake Specialist cake was 2 years ago for my niece's 3rd birthday: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/tPBKSFh7iBLhxtm4Iku98A?select=xkTCoIbIiji8pLmWuaU2uQ *she loves horses* I knew it was love at first bite when I kept eating the leftovers two days after the party!! Yeaaaah...I'm a bit of a sweet maniac, hence working out daily is a must!We ordered from them again this past January, then for my brother in law's birthday yesterday. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/tPBKSFh7iBLhxtm4Iku98A?select=xsfbAOunpd-EjWoHY4QCRQa slice of love:http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/tPBKSFh7iBLhxtm4Iku98A?select=IZFmgmxgdf8-d5npSwoJ9A*insider tip: I had to pick up this cake the day before so we kept it in the fridge, took it out about 3-4 hours before serving time, and the cake was sooooo moist and yummy!!* They probably think I'm obsessed with their cakes because I'm the one that keeps ordering the cakes!!!!!! What's great about this little business is that they can do a variety of cake creations for you: 3D, cut out cakes, photo scanning, (my niece drew a picture on a napkin for the red velvet cake and they did it) and their own designs. Prices are reasonable so you always leave with what you wanted and still have money in your pocket. Looking forward to another creative & great tasting cake from them!"

Cake Expressions

★★★★☆ 4.4 (7) • $$

"We had a fundraiser at work and I jumped on the opportunity to try a new bakery. I really enjoyed the cake. I can be very picky when it comes to cakes. This one was great! It was moist, the frosting was great, and the cake was beautiful. I couldn't ask for anything more. Five stars!"

P S It's Gluten Free

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"Outstanding quality! 5/5 would recommend. Beat part is that the carrot cake we had for my wife's birthday did not taste any different than a Marie Calendar or whatever chain, it was perfect in every way."

The Omaha Bakery

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (13)

"New Elkhorn location (opened October 2020). We saw it after putt-putt and we were curious. Thinking it might be a little snooty, we decided to go back another day, adults only, to get a cake for a birthday celebration. Well, WE WERE WRONG! Not snooty or pretentious! This is a family friendly bakery and would be a great place to walk to after some holes of putt-putt or after playing at Marks. They offer cookies, cupcakes, bars, buns, turnovers and more. They also offer coffee beverages and teas. On this trip, we ended up buying 4 sugar cookies, 2 lemon cookies, a 7-layer bar, a key lime bar, coconut cupcake, and a small carrot cake for a birthday celebration. Yum, yum, yum. They don't just offer sweets though, they also have house made bread loaves like challah, focaccia, and "plain" sandwich styles. This was only our first visit but we'll be back and my mom wants to order their catering for a girls-lunch in her home."

The Omaha Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.1 (129) • $$

"I just happened to walk by the day after they opened and of course had to stop in! It was hard to choose from everything in the case honestly. We settled on Candybar Cheesecake, a Brownie, and an Apple Turnover for this visit. While my daughter wasn't wowed by her brownie, we thought our other choices were wonderful.Staff was super friendly and helpful (I asked several questions about their cakes for an upcoming birthday) and prices are reasonable. Can't wait to see how cute and cozy this place will be once they're finished setting up!"

The Cake Gallery

★★★★☆ 3.8 (113) • $$

"My mom has been getting cakes from the Cake Gallery for about 5 years now and there is a reason that we keep going back: price, artistry, and flavor.My mom tried several other cake shops before and could never quite get what she wanted for the right price. But then she found the Cake Gallery and we've been sold ever since. Not only will they work with her to design her vision, but they do it for an affordable price.The artistry that they put into the cakes is stunning! My mom can go in with a vision, a topper, or a color theme, and they are able to bring that cake to life in breathtaking ways. This year my niece wanted an Arctic themed party based around a tiny animal toy set. My mom went in with this request and the final cake was STUNNING! I have no idea how they made it work with all of the little toys, but it was perfect. Check out the pictures I attached. And my niece LOVED it!Finally, and most importantly, their cakes are delicious. For the Arctic themed cake, the flavor was 'blue champagne' with a decadent buttercream frosting. I ate an enormous piece and regret nothing. Also, it's important to note that the staff are extremely friendly, welcoming, and talented. Working with them is a joyful part of the experience.Next time you need a cake in Omaha, don't think twice, get thee to the Cake Gallery!"

Baked by Sweet Melissa

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"I was looking for a cake for my birthday when I stumbled upon baked by sweet Melissa. She has macarons sold out of Edge of the Universe cafe along with some Japanese treats out of Her Company, so I knew it was going to be tasty. It definitely lived up to everything I hoped it would be! Not only was the cake beautiful, but it was delicious as well! Ordering her treats and cakes is done through her Facebook page or her website. There is lots of different options to choose from, and she even helps if you want a custom flavor. Pickup is done at Her Company, but she can work with you and deliver it if need be. She was kind and great to work with, and made it so that pickup was a breeze. The macarons are the BEST I've ever had. They are the perfect texture of crispy outside and chewy soft in the middle. The macarons even had a filling in between the buttercream that added a whole new flavor profile and freshness. I highly recommend her treats and cakes, especially those who have to be gluten free!"

Perks

★★★★★ 4.7 (3) • $

"Janet made a beautiful cake, cupcakes, and a German Chocolate groom's cake. Everything tasted absolutely amazing! Not too sickly sweet and definitely not dry at all. Loved it.However, we initially requested that the cake be made in square tiers - I was informed a few days before the wedding that the cake would have to be made with circle tiers instead because of the way we wanted it decorated. Not a big deal, but I do wish that information would have been given to me earlier in the wedding planning process. The color of the cake was off slightly from what I imagined - I wanted both teal blue and green on a white cake and it came with just teal blue. I am nit-picking because I'm just that kind of bride, though."

Goldenrod Pastries

★★★★☆ 4.1 (113) • $$

"I can not tell you how hard it is to find a pastries shop that's has gluten-free and vegan options. The pastries are huge, so many options and so freaking good. If you're crying about the price, go home and do it yourself. The staff is so helpful this place is super cute, everyone I bought treats for absolutely loved them!"

Cupcakes & More

★★★☆☆ 3 (22) • $$$

"Their menu listed 14 total flavors but only 8 of them were available on a Friday. Each flavor came in 3 sizes - $1 minis, $2.25 regulars, and $3 jumbos.I purchased a regular-sized Red Velvet and found it to be perfectly moist. Unfortunately, the flavor reminded me of something out of a Betty Crocker box. All in all, good for sudden cupcake cravings but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here.Service could also use a little improvement."

Crum Cakes Bakery

★★★★★ 4.8 (18)

"OMG I have had a few treats from Crum Cakes before they opened their storefront and I am beyond thrilled they are so close to me! I had to stop in on opening day and get a cupcake and some macaroons. It took so much willpower to not buy one of everything in the store because it all looked PHENOMENAL! I cannot wait to go back and get some more goodies. I also was obsessed with the details they put into their space from the sprinkles on the walls to in the countertop. Everyone who was working was so friendly and helpful I cannot wait to see how they continue to thrive in our community!"

Dave's Cakes of Omaha

★★★★★ 4.9 (19)

"Had the opportunity to swing by the cupcake shoppe this afternoon and my goodness, it was a treat (pun intended). Dave, the owner, was professional and polite, took the time to describe the various flavors available as well as this delicious looking Oreo Fluff that I have my eye on for next time. I opted to go with chocolate, vanilla and surprise the Mrs. with a raspberry champagne cupcake that was consumed in about 0.7 seconds when I got home. We're fans and looking forward to next time - thank you Dave!"

Butterfly Bakery

★★★★☆ 4.3 (39) • $

"One of the best bakeries in town. Their sugar cookies are soft and chewy not hard and stale. Their frosting is not overly sweet and still creamy with fun design choices. Today I had a lion, ate it too quickly and didnt take a picture.Their carrot cake cupcakes are theeee best. No nuts which is the way I like them. I also tried their triple chocolate cupcake as they had a buy one get one free! Excited to try new flavors and different cookie options.Ps- they have pupcakes! Dog friendly cupcakes"

Wahoo Bakery

★★★★★ 4.5 (13) • $

"Great little bakery that I never knew Wahoo had. I don't know how I've missed out over the years, as I've probably passed through Wahoo hundreds of times. It's awesome to see Wahoo's downtown start to be revitalized and love that it is still retaining the historic feel to it. Hoping the bank doesn't ruin that with hideous modern architecture. Love the quaint, homey feel to it. The pastry was great, the prices were reasonable and the service was quick and friendly. The only thing I would change is to make it more noticeable from the street. Maybe Wahoo could put signs up along the main drag through town to let people know there is an old town area with coffee shops, antique stores, restaurants, etc."

Queen GFB - A Gluten Free Bakery

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"If you're looking for gluten free baked goodies, look no further than Queen GFB. She is an at home baker that you can order from either through her website or Facebook. She was super kind and accommodating to my schedule, and pick up was fast and easy. I was able to pick up a variety box of her goods, and it's as tasty as it looks! There's a monster cookie, cinnamon poptart, brownie, lemon poppy seed loaf, and a lemon cupcake. My favorite is the lemon poppy seed loaf, which I haven't had in years. Super moist and not overly sweet. Definitely doesn't make me feel like I'm missing out on a "normal" lemon poppy seed loaf. All these amazing treats come in this super adorable and easily usable box. I definitely recommend this place for my fellow celiac friends, and will be back to try it again!"

The Bubbly Tart

★★★★★ 4.5 (46)

"The Bubbly tart does it again! I highly recommend this amazing place. Chelsie (the owner), made my 30th birthday cake 4 years ago and it was divine. Since then I go every couple weeks for cookies, cakes, and macarons. Everything is SO good. It doesn't help I work right down the street. I reached out to her again for a "Fore-Tee" themed golf birthday cake, and she absolutely nailed it! Everyone loved it and kept asking where it was from. Most importantly, the birthday boy was thrilled! Highly recommend the funfetti cake, almond, and strawberry champagne. But everything she makes is incredible. I also put pics my 30th birthday cake. I requested a pink marbled lemon flavored cake with donuts and roses. It was stunning!"
