Five stars aren't nearly enough. They recently made a cake for our daughter's first birthday with a Princess and the Pea theme.... This was our first time using this bakery as we live 40 minutes away, but they were the only bakery that looked like they coulddo the design we wanted and were able to work us in on the schedule. We initially contacted them on 7/1 and needed the cake on7/22, so somewhat shorter notice. I was initially told they may not be able to do the design we wanted b/c of the short noticeand the workload, but they then said they'd be able to do it. And did they ever. We could only find one picture online of aPrincess and the Pea cake to show them as an idea of what we were looking for, but that cake was kind of amateurish-looking, sowe weren't too sure how our cake would end up looking. However, the design and detail on the bed and princess were simplystunning with so many little details (see the photos for yourself). The decorator simply knocked it out of the park with a truework of art. They could have done much less detail and we still would have been impressed, but they just went above and beyond. Aside from our daughter, the cake was the centerpiece of the party. People just kept coming up and leaning over the cake tolook at all the details...so many oohs and ahhs. And the cake itself was just delicious (chocolate cake with strawberrybuttercream filling). This will absolutely be our go-to bakery from now on. Read more
The most delicious banana pudding I?ve ever had!! Gorgeous aesthetic inside and friendly staff proudly serving amazing food.
Had a retirement cake made by them and it was beautifully decorated. However, the chocolate layer didn?t taste like chocolate.... It tasted like a brown yellow cake. I had been waiting months for it and was extremely disappointed Read more
I live in NJ so I?m not familiar with bakeries in MD. The first time I ordered from Charles Street, I ordered a baby shower cake... for my sister who is the one who lives in MD and it was absolutely incredible. Well, over the weekend I had my sons birthdayparty and obviously wanted to order a cake from here again. Let me tell you how accommodating and helpful the employees arehere, nothing like any bakery I?ve dealt with in Jersey. I could not believe how beautiful my sons birthday cake came out. Icould have cried, I was so happy with the turn out and how helpful they were. They can make anything happen for you! If you askfor the most outlandish cake, they?ll make it happen and perfect it. My son loves the famous childrens star, Blippi so that wasthe theme of his party and I only had family bc of the Delta varient, so when you look at the pictures, it?s not too big, but itwas the best cake I?ve ever had with not a crumb left to spare. DONT ORDER FROM ANYONE ELSE, ORDER YOUR CAKES HERE, BUY YOUREPASTRIES HERE!! LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BAKERY! Read more

We ordered a 2 tier cake for my daughter?s First Birthday and it was ?Alice in Wonderland? themed. I live in VA, but was having... the party at my parents house in Charlotte Hall so I couldn?t go into the store to place the order and discuss details/designswith them. Instead they worked with me through text and over the phone and they did not disappoint! I was even able to make thedeposit over the phone. The cake turned out BEAUTIFUL and it was delicious! The icing was little bit too sweet, but the cake wasmoist and soft. I will definitely be ordering from them again if I need a cake for anymore events! Read more
