    The Cake Bake is the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion. The service is exceptional, the atmosphere is magical, the food is fine. The presentation makes up for any flaws. With the wave of fairy dust, the evening was magical and a special memory for a 6 yr old.

    The warm goat cheese salad was delicious except the greens were huge and there was no dressing applied to it or offered on the side. The knife provided was not made for greens cutting. Made it difficult to eat or flavorful. Table was uncomfortable to eat a meal on for 2 people. Had to put the table decor and dessert menu on the floor under the table to have room for our meal.
    The Cake Bake Shop - Carmel City CenterResponded 3 days ago
    Hello Melissa, We are disappointed that your experience did not fully meet the high standards that we hold for ourselves. Our Warm Goat Cheese Salad is served with our herbed vinaigrette, so if you did not receive that, we apologize and encourage you to let your server know next time so they can rectify that for you. We hope to welcome you back in the future to improve upon your recent visit. Warmly, The Cake Bake Shop
