Carlos Cakes

I don’t usually write reviews in fact this is my first one. All I have to say is that this was the worst cake I have ever had in my entire life. It’s crazy but I honestly wish I could have my money back. I ordered a 1/2 pound cake for my friend and requested the words “feel better ❤️”. Please look at the picture and tell me that it isn’t a kids hand writing. When I first opened it with my friend next to me, I was beyond embarrassed. And the funny thing was that the writing wasn’t the worst of all. I know good cake when I taste one and this was smothered in simple syrup which is the liquid they put to keep it tasting sweet and fresh which to be honest didn’t do it justice because the cake tasted like old garbage. I don’t want to get into the frosting because it was disgusting, not fresh and tasted horrible. There was more frosting than actual cake and I’m a big fan of frosting especially Dominican frosting. This one wasn’t it. For anyone who disagrees with me I recommend you try a cake from sweet grace heavenly cakes or Yeska cakes in Lawrence. Truly the best cakes out there. They taste beyond fresh and the Dominican frosting is more than likely homemade. There other frostings also taste just as good. This was my first time trying Carlos cakes and I thought that by the pictures they were going to be good… yeah no I was wrong. I got nauseous after eating the cake. Side note: if you’re Dominican and want a caramelo cake. Order from somewhere else. All they do here is mix frosting with milk and sugar. I nearly through up. Whoever made this cake please take some baking lessons and I mean that in the nicest way possible.

june 18th. 2021 they made a lego cake for my son's lego birthday party .. it was there first lego cake . i loved it. it was amazingly good. also all the employees were very sweet and friendly. even carlos the owner himself was a very nice humble guy..they are all very understanding. and i strongly recommend carlos cakes.. for any occasion.

Ordered a cake that was so dry, I felt like I ordered corn bread. When I spoke to the owner, I was told I was a liar. Then when I went into the establishment, I had the cops called on me for asking him not to speak to me the way he was and to not call me a liar. In the end, I got my money back. However, I will never return. Service was poor, product was poor. Don't waste your money. There are several bakeries in Lawrence with real bakers and great service.

Went in for a tasting and fillings were good but cake was rancid and rotten. They work with a lot of milk and tres leche textures that could mean refrigeration isn't appropriate. There isn't anywhere to sit for a tasting. Even when I made an appointment, they were unprepared and Carlos was not there. The guy who did receive us and gave us a tasting of the fillings was very nice. It's not his fault the cake itself wasn't good.

Very unprofessional, I went there over the weekend on saturday May 30,th and The kid working at the window seemed to be in a rush. I ordered a caramel cake and not realizing until everyone was eating into the cake i realized it wasn’t caramel. It was a strawberry flavored cake, and I had guest who were highly allergic to strawberries reason why I had not choosen that flavor. I’ve had cakes from here before and they were always to my satisfaction. Very up set with this situation and I will never in my life go back due to this horrible experience between how I was treated with horrible customer service and the cake. My overall experience would be below a 1 if i could do so.
