My wife picked this place out for her birthday. From what I understand, there is also a Carmel, Indiana location that's larger and has a menu with more selections.
I'm not complaining one bit. This place didn't feel too small, and finding amazing choices on the menu was easy! This place had so much charm, the service was great and the food, drinks and dessert all were wonderful!

What an experience!! Loved the key lime pie, what a treat. The finishing salt, Fleur de Sel Sea salt from Rè, on top of the Earls Court Chocolate cake had an earthy, mushroom flavor in combination with the chocolate. It’s very interesting, definitely try that.





What a fantastic little cake shop. The atmosphere of this place is extraordinarly feminine and delightful. Cakes and pies sold whole or buy the slice, along with cookies, bars, and macaroons. The cake I had was fantastic, and the coffee was bold and rich. If you have time on your hands, there's a wonderful little area to enjoy your treat along with your coffee. The service was great and the prices were reasonable. If you like sweets, The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn is a great way to give yourself a special treat.











Had lunch here, highly recommend! The setting is so cute, very elegant and pretty. Service was great and cheerful. Food was fantastic, we ate EVERY BITE! The dessert was almost too beautiful to eat! Definitely get the sparkling lavender lemonade, 😄 it was delicious. Oh and sparkles! Sparkles in my drink and my desserts!















I’ve been to both locations and love them both. The food is always really good and feel like it’s unique. Definitely a fun girls day out to enjoy. Good luck deciding g which dessert you’ll try, they are all so beautiful and the ones I’ve tried have been delicious.





At first you don't expect to much, but then it becomes the best of the best place for food and cake, it is SO good, it has blown me away how well the food is put together, how the whole place makes its own plates and all with it's name all over the stuff it sells. The cake.......THE CAKE is sooooo good get a slice!

This place most definitely get's the Red hat of approval! A must go to.

The location in Broad Ripple was beautifully decorated, small, warm, and quaint. It was the perfect place for a small, 3-person celebration. The displays of the pastries were clear, clean, and inviting. You have to book in advance with a card to hold the reservation. There was not a lot of slotted time available 2 weeks in advance for an early brunch on a Wednesday. The service was just okay, actually a little subpar compared to the ambiance. I expected a little more interaction and history. Perhaps a host greeting of some sort. We were there so early that there was only one table seated in the entire restaurant before us. The service wasn't extremely fast or slow, and the server wasn't as attentive as I expected for a place that requires advance reservation. But the environment was busy and interesting. I ordered the combination choice of a half croissant chicken salad sandwich paired with a cup of LS Ayers Velvet Chicken soup. The order came with a side of lightly dressed Arugula Salad. Others, at our table, ordered the crabcake. The meals were light and tasty. Everything was seasoned and browned to perfection. My croisscant was surprisingly crispy instead of flaky, but it was perfect for the chunky chicken salad. I had the Arnold Palmer for a drink. It comes with refills, but I had to ask twice before the server completed the request. Next up was what we really came for... deserts. I ordered the Millionaire Cake, my daughter ordered the Mint Chocolate Chip Cake, and my friend ordered the Gwendolyn Famous Chocolate Cake. We all tasted each others. In a perfect world, for a $16 slice, we should have been able to taste a variety of pastries before making our final choices. Maybe even a taste platter for a fee is a good notion. But alas, we were stuck with what we had. To my disappointment, the Millionaire Cake was not as moist and tasty as the others. The presentation was perfect. The slice proportioned well, but maybe the glitter was not tasty. Out of the 3 cakes, the Gwendolyn's Famous Chocolate was outstanding! I will return but to the larger location in Carmel for another brunch/ lunch. I heard the kitchen is right there, so maybe the cakes are tastier?
