I am a baker and I am extremely picky when it comes to pastries and cakes, especially when they arent homemade. I cannot stand supermarket cake and even find most bakery cakes disgusting...except for Clays. I have been getting cakes from Clays for over 10 years and have never been disappointed. My family has gotten cakes for both big events and small birthdays and we have never been disappointed. The cake and frosting are both delicious and the decorations are beautiful. They are a bit pricey but well worth it. Their special order cakes are beautiful but the ones they have available for purchase are equally well-decorated. I cannot imagine why anyone would give this place a bad review. The cake make seem "dry" because many of them are pound cakes as opposed to normal fluffy cakes. The chocolate chip pound cake with vanilla buttercream is my favorite!

I was actually shocked by some of the negative reviews here although even the best of us make mistakes I guess. I and my family have been Clays customers for many years now. They very much remind me of my childhood favorite Higgins Bakery of Wayne and I think it was Devon or Berwyn both of which are long gone now. The cakes are legendary and I consistently get people who ask when invited to family birthdays if were once again serving a Clays cake. I sometimes wonder if theyre coming for the cake and not the birthday... Hopefully theyll be around for many more years to come!

This place is a dump. I went here earlier today with my fiance and mother to try the cake and disgusting is an understatement. The place is messy, the presentation is awful and they had HANDS DOWN the driest cake Ive ever tasted. The sales associate who helped me was no older than 17 and had the dirtiest finger nails that I had EVER seen. No wonder the wedding cake price was so cheap...$350 will get you your own averagely decorated piece of trash. Stay far away. On another note, we were able to drive JUST around the corner to Sweet Jasmines which was delicious and CLEAN.

I was suggested by a friend to order cake from clays. Decided this is gonna be my favorite bakery. They are creative artistic in designing the cake and the end result is a marvelous piece of art and cake is very delicious slurrpp. The staff are professional yet friendly. Im glad, all in my friend circle knows this bakery and on everyones birthday we place order for a cake only from clays. The only thing i observed after trying cakes from clays on many occasions, the pre ordered ones are more delicious than a readymade one.

I read all the reviews and decided to go ahead and get my daughters christening cake from Clays. To ensure that it would not be dry, I worked with one of the kids at the counter and had them write in all caps EXTRA MOIST and underline it on the order slip since the bakers had left for the day. My $120 cake was dry and tasted like saw dust. It was embarrassing. But more so, what a waste of money. I think a grocery store cake would have been 10 times better. So disappointed! This is the last time I waste money at Clays.

Disappointed and underwhelmed with the birthday cake that I order from there, which was supposed to be an Italian rum cake. OVERPRICED, TASTELESS, DRY!!! Paid 70$ for the cake and it tasted just like an ACMEs 14$ cake. So I went back and told them that I was very disappointed with their cake, they told me theres no way and we are the best, very cocky and rude.

Live 300 miles from the bakery. Needed to get a birthday cake for my granddaughter who lives near the bakery. Ordered over the phone = they were a great help and it was quick and effortless. My family loves their quality and friendly operation. we highly suggest this locally owned family operation. Their reputation speaks volumes. Great website for shopping

The best cakes around. Moist and delicious if you can bring yourself to cut into the work of art. Clays has provided every birthday, wedding, graduation, etc. cake for my family for over 20 years. Its always a treat. The chocolate chip pound cake with white icing and chocolate dip is my personal favorite but all are good.

As always the cake was delicious and beautiful. Whether miscommunicated or transcribed wrong, what was to be a Vanilla and Chocolate cake came all Chocolate. Probably calling several days ahead to verify an order would be helpful to all. Definitely will continue to order from them.

I am not quite understanding any of the bad reviews here, as I have been a customer here for years. Every time I go here, they have new designs and always amaze me with what they come up with! The cakes taste as good as they look! Never been disappointed, wouldnt go anywhere else!

The best bakery around!! Everything they have is amazing. The cakes are fantastic and the decorations are just beautiful, definitely art! I just had their strawberry shortcake this past weekend and it was sooo good. I recommend Clays to everyone I know.

Clays made the greatest pound cake for us for my friends 90th birthday. He met his wife at Penn State, so they put blue Nittany Lion paw prints in icing all over the cake. It was sooo well received. Oh, yeah, the cake was also delicious.

Love this bakery. I had a reveal party cake and a baby shower cake for twins. The cakes were not only beautiful but delicious as well. I had pictures of the cakes I wanted and they did them exactly the way they looked i the picture.

Love this bakery. Ive been coming here for close to 10 years. Fantastic strawberry shortcake and their cup cakes are to die for! Great service, old world quality. Skip the supermarket, spend the money and get a real cake here.

Over heard the workers talking about what seemed to be a family member. The things they were saying should have not been said to where customers could hear. I had my son with me and heard the F word multiple times. Not okay.

Everything is fresh and delicious! That about covers it, oh, the people are nice and theres fresh coffee to go. Its located directly across from the Berwyn train station. Great in the morning on the way into the city.

They have the best chocolate chip pound cake with the chocolate drizzle icing ever!!!! The cake is so dense it weighs a ton and it servers a lot of people because you dont need that much. It is to die for!!

All of the cakes I have ever ordered are equally delicious and beautiful. Everyone who works there are delightful. Its a pleasure walking into their shop.

Decoration is pretty, but cake on the dry side, the buttercream is very good. I wish they would make the cakes a little more moist, and more flavor.

Very impressed with the moist cake and superior tasting butter cream icing. Reasonable pricing and friendly staff.

Their cakes are pretty, but not very exciting in the taste department. Their donuts and pastries are much better!

Overpriced for the portion size. Tasty though. Busy spot. Seemed like they just want to move product.
