Crown Bakery

I went to Crown Bakery on Tuesday 10/28 to order a ½ sheet cake for a baby shower on Sunday. I wanted the cake to look like a book. The woman flipped through her book of cakes and quickly found a book cake. Great! I wanted it to be a nautical theme. She suggested maybe a whale and some seashells and starfish. Great! How about a filling she asked. I opted for raspberry. What kind of frosting she asked. I opted for butter cream. Anything else she asked? Yes, On one side of the book I’d like it to say “Once Upon a Time”. Then she rang up the price. $130.00!!! Yikes, that was way more than I wanted to spend on a cake, but frankly, I was embarrassed that I didn’t ask the price in the first place and decided to place the order.

That night I called the person I was planning the shower with and we both thought $130. was too much money for a cake and decided to cancel the order. I went back to Crown Bakery the next morning, Wednesday. The woman told me that they had already started the cake and brought out a tray with a fondant whale, seashells and starfish. I was surprised they started the cake on Wednesday for a Sunday event. She asked if I still wanted to cancel the order. Yes I did. She then told me it she had to charge me $30. I was disappointed but thought that was fair. After all they did make those fondant decorations. I asked to take those decorations. “Oh no” she said, “you can’t have these, that would be extra”. What was I paying the $30.00 for then???? “For my time in helping you design your cake” she replied. Please reread the above and you tell me if that whole exchange “designing the cake” could have taken more that 4-5 minutes. She could see I was upset at this point and said I could have the whale but not the seashells and starfish. How petty.

I went to Big Y and ordered a ½ sheet cake that looked like a book. It was $37.98. It was delicious and it looked very nice with my $30.00 whale on it!!! Plus it was $100. cheaper!!! You can be sure I will never set foot in Crown Bakery again. Of course I told everyone at the shower about the treatment I got from Crown Bakery. And now I’m telling anyone who will listen how unfairly I thought Crown Bakery treated me. Because they wouldn’t give me the seashells and starfish, that I paid for.
