Clara's Bakery

I've ordered two cakes from here in the last month and a half. The designs of the cake came out great. One of the cake flavor was rum, which was very moist and delicious. The second cake I asked for was stawberry. The cake cake with a strawberry filling and was vanilla? It was a little dry. All in all I'd order from this place again.

Based on Michael's recommendation (which I have to admit dates back a little while), I drove out of my way to get a b-day cake for a colleague. Little did I know they'd moved from their 17-92 location to SR 434 (yikes - more urban decay along that side of the road...) And she didn't think to let me know when I called to ask if she had a cake without pre-ordering. Oh well.I have to say that the chocolate/raspberry cake I ended up getting was not worth the drive or the money. Very unremarkable ordinary dark cake with some raspberry jam thing in between. At well over $20, it was no bargain. Her whole business now seems to center around the restaurant now. I'm not sure if that's the reason. For all I know, she's cake lady queen of Longwood - on this my one and only visit, she was not 5-stars.

Thank you for a great cake for my sons birthday! You went above and beyond to find the "right" power ranger

Great Customer service and quick turnaround time... I called the day before and sent a picture of the cake and they reproduced it perfectly!!

Thank you very much for creating our daughter's Farm Cake! Everyone loved how the cake looked and tasted. For review purposes let me tell everyone that we called at the last minute (Friday afternoon) for a custom cake for Sunday and they accommodated us. We ordered a 11x15 Vanilla cake with Bavarian Cream filling. It was very good, fresh, and moist. Taste was awesome! This was created when We gave Marta a sample paper plate and a few animal cake top figurines and she helped developed the whole cake. The Final product had a lot of nice details, the clouds, the fence, the barn! Check out the pictures. For sure if we are ever in need of a custom cake we will be using Clara's Cake again. Gracias!

I met Diego at a bridal show and decided to have them make a surprise engagement cake with a UCF theme. I presented them with my ideas and what I had seen online after doing a bunch of research and thought I had it all figured out. They took my idea and made it even better by adding gold tipped roses and every embellishment I couldn't even dream of to make this cake blow any I'd seen out of the water, which is what I wanted for my surprise proposal. The small details of the tuck 'n' button made the photos of the cake look like it was surreal! By the time it was cut and everyone had said their toasts to our new commitment it was gone. Everyone loved the cake and it was far better than a crappy publix cake and had multiple layers of filling and it was very moist despite the fact my brother drove over an hour to pick it up.We could not have been happier with the quality, service, most of all creativity of their staff making my our engagement perfect!

Clara's cakes has been run by Clara for years. These are the kind of cakes you cannot get at the supermarket, not saying they are overpriced or stuffy. These are how bakeries used to be. You needed a cake, you went to a bakery and Clara has continued to keep the tradition alive.

My husband wanted to go with a small, local bakery to do our wedding cake. I agreed, as it seemed much more romantic than my idea of using Publix. I thought that a small bakery such as theirs would be of much better quality. We didn't want a huge, expensive cake and our requests were simple. I wanted Amaretto flavoring (as opposed to Vanilla/Chocolate) with raspberry filling. Simple. The cake was BEAUTIFUL, but as they say it's what's on the inside that counts. It was extremely dry, had no flavor as she did not use the Amaretto (I'm not sure what she used) and she all but SCRAPED the filling between the layers. So I didn't even have the filling to fall back on. It tasted terrible. We were so disappointed. The cake was barely eaten, and we ended up throwing it away as we couldn't even GIVE it away =( We didn't bother to haggle for our money back as we could tell we weren't going to get anywhere with this lady. We just decided that posting reviews would be the best way to warn others. In the end, i wish we 'd gone with Publix. They guarantee their quality, and we wouldn't have had to worry about getting our money back as they are corporate.

Went above and beyond for an unusual and special cake request. With just one week notice, they created a 3D alligator cake that not only looked like a real gator, it felt like one! Most people didn't even realize it was a cake. Even though I was more concerned about the look of the cake, it tasted amazing, not dry at all and everyone loved it. They were very attentive to the details and even called me the day they were creating the cake to confirm the cake base would fit in my vehicle before they started. Absolutely wonderful people to work with!

The place inside looks like a mess. Looks like they have been moving in for the last couple of years. Ordered a cake 2 weeks prior & it wasnt ready when I picked it up. Asked for a refund & was told they didn't have cash on hand to give a refund. So I had no choice but to wait for the cake to b finished. Never coming back to this place, I'll stick with Publix.
