I spent 70$ on a cake for my sons birthday. It was nicely decorated and ready on time. WHAT I WASNT AWARE OF IS... that they have "their own version of Buttercream" which tastes like citrus/lemon. Hense our chocolate cake with whipped cream filling tasted foul with lemon frosting on top. The kids were so excited till they put it in their mouth, most of them spit it out. THERE IS NO OTHER CHOICEOF FROSTING, SO BEWARE!!!. Half the cake is still in my fridge and the other half pretty much ended up in the garbage during the party. I called to let Waldi know that the cake was a flop due to the frosting, and told "everyone else likes it so...sorry and Thank You!" I just called to find out if I made the mistake in not being more specific about the frosting, but NOPE, thats what you get whether you like it/know it or not. White lemon frosting! After her disregard to my cordial call, not even the suttlest of apologies for a cake costing on the better side of $100, I WILL NOT ORDER A CAKE FROM HERE EVER AGAIN, and since the money was paid up front, they couldnt care less. Buy a cake from somewhere where they appreciate customer loyalty and satification. She has no idea how many Private School parents who make plenty of money will not be taking their business to her now. Thats her fault, she just lost TONS of business!

I have really mixed feelings on this place and will not go back again which is sad. Two of my kids have birthdays just a few days apart so we needed two takes close together. First cake was pirate themed and turned out looking AMAZING but the taste was just okay. They forgot to remove it from the freezer the night before and so the strawberries were like ice which was a bummer. The second cake was a disaster. I called the morning of pickup just asking what time I should pick it up and they acted confused. Apparently someone wrote the date down wrong and had it for the next week! Ok not going to work...she assured me she could make the cake in time. Well it was downright ugly and tasted bad. It was supposed to be airplane themed and he said whimsical, some stuff sticking up, etc...my son is an airplane fanatic. It was flat and just had an airplane cut out of fondant on it with some clouds made out of icing. Absolutely nothing like the first cake we bought and the price was the same if not more. I know it is because they did it the same day and the lady was not happy. It tasted horrible as well. If both cakes would have turned out as great as the first we probably would have returned but definitely not now!

We have used them for several occasions, including our wedding. We have had their cakes, cookies, bars, and cupcakes. Most recently we had them make a cake for our anniversary, and once again they did not disappoint. It was beautiful! BUT, not only do they make beautiful cakes, they are SO delicious! Some cakes rely on lots of sugary sweetness. These cakes do not. They are sweet, of course, but they have such wonderful flavors without being overly sweet, drowning out the flavor! Their customer service is just as good as their cakes and bars. I am picking up a cake tomorrow for my husbands birthday, and I have full confidence that we will be delighted as always. They are always so friendly and very helpful. We will continue to be customers for as long as they are in business!

My husband and I decided to have Cake and Candy specialties make our wedding cake. We had no idea what design we wanted but we had the colors and the topper, so we set up a cake tasting appointment and we make our choices and, I forget his name but its the husband, he helped us out so much and helped us decide what exactly we wanted and when our wedding day came the cake was gorgeous and it tasted phenomenal. It is now almost a year since we have been married and we have already placed our order for our 1st anniversary cake at a great price. I love this place and when we have a baby we are going to then for the baby cake. Thank you so much for the wonderful cake and great customer service.

The owners are very helpful and extremely talented. I have ordered two cakes for them for different occasions and they have been phenomenal!! A real show-stopper. Everyone always asks about where I got the cake, it is that unbelievable. I will never go anywhere else, this is now my bakery. And the prices are extremely reasonable for the art that is created. You will not find better in Sacramento!!

Ok so this is THE most amazing place ever! I came into the store with a couple of photos of a cake and an invitation and they made the most amazing cake I have EVER seen! Not only did it look amazing but it tasted so good too! My daughter has a severe allergy to dairy and they made a vegan cake for her. Highly highly highly recommend this place!

I had ordered a fruit basket Jungle Theme cake for my Sons first Bday. It was the best cake i ever had. All the animals were made from chocolates. Eveyone fom adults to kids loved the cake. The owners are very friendly and they went out of their way to add many chocolate animals and dolphins on the cake.
