DO NOT get your wedding cake from here!!!!! So much was wrong! 1.They did not match the color of the fondant to what I wanted and they did not tell me they couldnt do it until the day he went to pick up the cake so it was to late to find someone who could (they could have airbrused it to get it the right color) . 2. They didnt cover the cake all the way and you could see the plate under the top layer because there was such a huge space. 3. I ordered the larger bottom layer to be red velvet and the smaller top layer white, but it was the other way around. 4. the cake had been made so many days in advance that by the time we got it it was all dried out and tasted nasty. We had to take a drink between bites because it was so dried out. If I had been the one to pick up this cake (a family member did it for me because I had to get my hair done), I would have demanded my money back, told them to keep it, and picked up a sheet cake from Wal-Mart because it would have been a better quality. I cannot believe I paid $167.00 for this plain undecorated 2 layer cake with it being of such half assed (at best) quality! I used to cater and do cakes for a living, but because I was already spreading myself thin doing everything myself. This just added to the stress

Very disappointed. I called them because they were featured on channel 2 news. I had my little girls one year old birthday party. Everything was light pink and white. I gave them an invitation to look off of. The girls behind the counter were very nice and helpful and made me feel very confident they would do a great job. I went to pick up my cake the day of the party and was very excited to see it. It was not decorated at all to the invitation nor was it decorated at all. It had a number 1 on there and that was it. The cake was hot pink with white polka dots and the writing was in maroon. The number one was filled in with maroon, orange, and yellow. It looked awful. I was devastated. I worked very hard to make her birthday special and this cake ruined the whole thing. I couldnt believe they actually thought that was acceptable. Dont go to them for a decorated cake.

Oh my Goodness!! The bakery goods from Dukes are scrumptious!!! A fresh baked bread smell hits you as you walk in the door. Heavenly!! And the selection of baked goods is awesome!! So much great looking products- donuts and pastries and cakes and pies- all in one little store!! Oh, and everything we bought and ate was as delicious as it looked and smelled!! It is DEFINITELY worth the time and gas to pay a visit to this great bakery!! The place is easy enough to get to and find in Alton, on Henry Street. And the sales clerks were friendly and efficient but did not rush us when we were making our selections. There is also fresh coffee available for purchase and other drink products in the refrigerator cases.

I love dukes! One of the saddest things about moving away from Alton. Im visiting the area and I am planning on a special trip to Dukes before I leave town. Everything is fresh, there is wonderful variety, and its delicious.

Great bakery that has been in Alton for years. Doughnuts, cookies, cake, pies, cupcakes and specialty pastries and other baked goods that vary through the month. Excellent Breas as well

I dont think their stuff is very good to be honest, Mr donut on Homer Adams in Alton destroys dukes donuts. Not even close.

Great fresh bread. Depending on the day, the staff can be less than helpful but everything in the store is phenomenal.

A dangerous place. They do not play fair. Smells and sights enough to seduce the most stalwart of hearts and palates
