This was my first order from this bakery and it turned our great. I used their website last minute in the morning hours ordering a cake and a couple other treats and they were prepared and ready for me when I arrived around 15 hours later. They have a great selection and the store is beautiful. I recommend giving this place a try. The staff here is excellent and very kind offering tips on transporting the cake and making sure it stays perfect. I appreciate it and I'll be returning to try some of their other treats. I was pleasantly surprised I received what I saw in the pictures. The value of this place compared to chain grocery sheet cakes should be better recognized.

Caramanda’s Bake Shop absolutely knocked it out of the park! Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.
The Apple Fruit Flip had the perfect balance of flaky pastry and delicious apple filling. The Anzac Cookie was wonderfully chewy with great texture, and the Chess Bar was rich, buttery, and impossible to stop eating.
I also picked up three pup treats for my dogs, and they were an instant hit—they disappeared in seconds! It’s such a thoughtful touch to have something special for our four-legged family members.
To top it all off, I tried the Lexington Lua Dirty Soda, and it was a fun, refreshing treat that paired perfectly with the baked goods.
Friendly service, a welcoming atmosphere, and consistently excellent quality make Caramanda’s one of Lexington’s best local bakeries. Whether you’re stopping in for breakfast, dessert, or a treat for your dog, there’s something for everyone. I’ll definitely be back!

I ordered a cake for my sister's surprise 40th birthday party. I was scheduled to pick the cake up on 4/4 at 2pm. The cake wasn't ready until 2:40 as myself and several others were told they were still decorating the cakes. Once we finally get to the birthday party and cut the cake it was the wrong type of cake! I ordered a marble cake and was given a strawberry cake. My sister is allergic to strawberries so we weren't even able to eat the cake! I called yesterday spoke with someone and emailed them the pictures of the inside of the cake which were clearly not the same as my invoice and was only given a partial refund! In my opinion this is TERRIBLE Customer service! They clearly took on more orders than they could handle for that day! I waited patiently for the cake in the bakery for 40 MINUTES past my pick-up time, making me late to the party only to not be able to even eat the cake due to my sister's allergy!

I don’t normally leave reviews on businesses. but OMG! I decided to get my boyfriend’s birthday cake from here, I sent a picture and the cake was the EXACT inspiration picture.
Not only was it beautiful, but the cake was not dry at all, the icing is good. For me personally, other bakers i’ve bought from have great decorative skills but the cake isn’t that good and is dry. but this cake is SO GOOD!!!! I immediately got on after trying the cake and order my son’s first birthday cake because it is so good!
Highly recommend!
